OOOOH! who has the WORST studio gear???!!!

[Drew]

Here's my entry...

-Dell Latitude CPi laptop, cira 1999.
-NeoMagic MagicMedia 256 soundcard (i think)
-6.0 gig hard drive (mostly full)
-no CD-R drive (just CD)
-3.5" floppy drive (can only be installed when i remove the CD drive, or disconnect my printer)
-64Mb RAM
-sonic foundry ACID 2.0
-Sound forge (effects, mastering)
-crappy $35 radio shack mic
-J-Station
-Klipsch ProMedia 2.1 speakers (these are actually pretty decent- oops )
-freeware version of Fruityloops for percussion
-assorted adaptors, courtesy of radioshack

Can anyone top that? come on... make me feel better about myself.

i figure, if i can get tolerable results on this, i can get good results with anything. (if anyone's dying to find out, i've got a few tracks i can encode to mp3 and pass around)

Whatever is electronic is AcidPro 2.0. Whatever's acoustic guitar and vocals is an Oscar Schmidt, small size, crappy acoustic with 4 year old strings, through my PC mic, into Pro Tools Free.

I'll beat ya with my left hand:

Tascam Porta Two & Shure SM57. That's ALL.

Actually, my main recording rig (I don't use my computer rig for anything but acoustic demos occasionally when I'm bored, and for editing stuff I recorded on my main rig). My main rig is a Tascam 424 4-track recorder, and a mic by a company I've never heard of. Sound ok, but I hate that tape noise...

Here's one --

When I was a teenager I would borrow my friend's 4-track. If I also couldn't borrow a mic from anybody, I'd use a pair of headphones and record everything (drums and vocals) through those in mono. I still have a lot of those 4-track lo-fi wonders; they have so much energy! Ironic, isn't it?

Can anobody beat that?

Mr. Orange- I'm with ya:

-Tascam Porta One
-Generic SM58-type mic.

Luckily, I've since then purchased a nice new Yamaha MD8.
