What equipment do you use to record?

Your microphone, whatever device, and software.

for some reason the word 'shepps' comes to mind (about microphones).  ocasionally i'll hear conversations that my hubby has about recording.  i try to get way out of the way when he is setting up anything related to recording.  he goes into a sort of purposeful maniacal frenzy (calculating everything) and would walk right over me (like the crowds at wal-mart after thanksgiving) if i stayed in the way.  usually, i have to 'play something' over and over.  so after getting ready to record - i'm already done.

he used to have a perreaux system - to record.  how anyone figures out all this stuff, i'll never know!  just knowing where to plug it all in.  i think he used colored tape and labels.  one thing, i must admit, is when everything sounded right - my hubby would then get extremely calm again.  he was definately a professional.  none of that 'eerrreeeeech'  from the microphones EVER.  and, he always cut out background noises.  he subscribes to 'recording' magazine - if that helps.
