This seems like an odd comment. Funny how many times poor recordings are associated to preamps, or the desire to improve sound quality draws people to new pres.

I agree With Mr. Pederson: mono can work just fine. Find the sweet spot and go.

Before anyone can give you any real advice you need to post a clip of your results. I have never used a Snowball but it can't be that bad of a mic/interface. Offering first hand evidence would be doing a great service to our community.

As for concrete advice on gear selection, do a search. Low-end mics and interfaces are discussed to a great extent around here. Many helpful people have said many helpful things that don't lose their helpfulness over time.


Oh, and welcome aboard!
