In my efforts to get the best possible sound for my podcast and my videos, I’ve tinkered with a few mics, mixers and other equipment needed for the job.<\/p>\n
Before I get into the specifics regarding the Alesis MULTIMIX8USB mixer, I want to point out one universal truth: you get what you pay for. <\/p>\n
ABOUT THE Alesis MULTIMIX8USB<\/strong><\/p>\n Let me point out two very important points:<\/p>\n .. There is a driver problem that has not been resolved by the people at Alesis. It is a known issue but the only resolution to the problem is to get their firewire based mixer – it is much more expensive.<\/p>\n I don’t know much else about the product since I could not get it to work with the programs I use. That said, I’ve read several mixed reviews about the product … some like it, some don’t and others get it to work partially.<\/p>\n Alesis phone tech support was fast and we got to the answer quick – though that meant returning the product. <\/p>\n MY RECOMENDATION<\/strong><\/p>\n I hate it when people dis a product and don’t offer an alternative (kinda like the democrats in the US,) so I am suggesting an alternative to get your mic hooked into your computer:<\/p>\n The Mobilepre USB from M-Audio.<\/em><\/p>\n I’ve been using this preamp\/audio interface for a while now and after fixing a small problem hooking it up with my XP machine (great phone support btw), I have never had a problem since. <\/p>\n My only complaint about the Mobilepre is that you really need to crank the gain to get the volume you need. <\/p>\n I am now about to test the M-Audio Fast Track Pro – the next generation of the Mobilepre – it’s supposed to be a bit better.<\/p>\n Stefan Mischook In my efforts to get the best possible sound for my podcast and my videos, I’ve tinkered with a few mics, mixers and other equipment needed for the job.
