Hi all,
I’ve had my Kemper for a couple years now and have used it strictly for live gigs (because it’s frickin’ awesome!!). But I’m looking to finally use it for home recordings. So before I rush out to buy anything, I was hoping you all could give me some tips on what I should buy. I’d rather get advice from this forum than the guys at Guitar Center who just want to sell me the most expensive setup possible.
I was thinking of getting a Focusrite interface; a cheap one with just two inputs because I’m thinking I’ll likely only need two inputs at the same time for when I’m recording guitar in stereo.
My question is, should I get the Focusrite or something else (what’s the best bang for the buck)? And, should I use the SPDIF output or the main XLR outputs for best results. I’d be going in to Reaper for my DAW and using EZDrummer 2 for drums.
I’ve never done any of this stuff before, so I’d like to make sure I’ve got the optimal setup or best bang for the buck from the beginning. I know there are much better and more expensive interfaces available, but I’m not sure I’d need those kinds of setups for just recording stuff at home.
Any help or tips would be appreciated.
