once i upgraded to the new version of Fedora (Fedora Core 6), the driver support was there for my Audigy2 soundcard. Audacity now registers the mic 1/4" mic jack on the front panel. also, i've got the Hydrogen drum machine up and running as well.
so far, the only problem is my mic. it's a Zeron, and is a bit of a piece of crap, at least for micing a cabinet. it seems to be ok for vocal stuff, but it completely clips out when i put it infront of my Nomad. i'm pretty sure an SM57/58 will have a greater dynamic range, but wanted to be sure first, before dropping $100 on one.
so, i should grab one, yes?
also noteworthy is my mic preamp... a Kustom 15w practice amp
. i've got a converter for the mic cable, then i run an instrument cable from the headphone out to the mic 1/4" in on the soundcard. so far, this is the best i can do with what i've got.
any and all ideas are welcome![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
