hey first off i would like to thank you cats for sharing the knowledge,
i working with
compaq laptop 2 months old
m-audio axiom 49 key
reason4.0
recycle 2.1
audacity
m-audio MobilePre USB - USB Bus-Powered Preamp and Audio Interface
m-audio Nova - Affordable Large Capsule Cardioid Microphone
im recording in by bedroom its pretty small ,walls made of plaster,carpet and has 2 windows

i know this is kinda of a budget setup but im starting out, my question is
a)is the nova gonna cut it for my vocals,i have a style similar to atmosphere and sage francis,
b)when im recording to audacity using the mobile pre,vocals sounds kinda cheap
so im wondering do i need a new mic or do i need a new audio interface
also if you can give me some quick advice for setting up mics such as screens,placement in room etc any advice would be much appreciated thanks..brooks
ps any recommendations much appreciated for my setup etc.
