Alan, the sound quality of your last videos seems good enough to me.
Gabriel, your contribution would be really appreciated.
Thank you for your interest everyone!

Filip Tomiša · Oct 15, 2018

@Ids Before I had a sound card I pluged my guitar into a microphone jack and then I opened bias and I recorded the sound with a “sound recorder” that comes with windows. Quality is ok but it’s no where near the quality you get from a sound card. So I guess you could get away with it but the best option is the sound card.

Gabriel Corso · Oct 15, 2018

Thanks @romain !
So just let us when it’s time to record!!
Take care buddy!

idssdi · Oct 15, 2018

With sound card you mean interface right?
I may go with an interface and wait another month to get bias

Filip Tomiša · Oct 15, 2018

Yes, sound card or audio interface are the same thing.
Yeah that might be a better option because there are a lot of free amp emulators that you can test out and record with your interface so you get the idea how it works.

Romain Tassan · Oct 15, 2018

Awaiting some other volunteers, I began composing the backing track. I guess I’ll let the time to some other people to see the post, and join in. Not sure how much time I’ll wait, between a few days and a week, something like that, I’m not in a rush at all.

idssdi · Oct 15, 2018

So now I need some advice on which interface to get. I’m thinking either this one https://m.thomann.de/nl/focusrite_scarlett_2i2_2nd_gen.htm?o=11&search=1539613979 or this one https://m.thomann.de/nl/focusrite_scarlett_solo_2nd_gen.htm any opinions?

Dan Shipway · Oct 15, 2018

I would recommend the solo as you are only recording guitar

Gabriel Corso · Oct 15, 2018

I have a solo, it is more than ok for me.
It is more affordable as well.
I recommend it

Filip Tomiša · Oct 15, 2018

Both are great, 2i2 obviously has an extra input and probably some adjustements but both will work just fine. If you want to record 2 guitars at the same time for example with a friend then get 2i2 but if not solo will do you just fine. Go on youtube, there are probably some comparisons between the two. But make sure you have Windows and not Mac, if I’m not mistaking you have Mac right? Mac can’t have an USB interface, it needs a fireware interface. Google this :usb vs fireware interfaces” to understand whats it all about. I would post you links but I can’t right now.

idssdi · Oct 15, 2018

According I can use them on my MacBook pro https://support.focusrite.com/hc/en-gb/articles/115002523165-Are-Focusrite-USB-interfaces-Plug-and-Play-on-Mac-
I do have USB ports in my Mac so should work right?

Filip Tomiša · Oct 15, 2018

Hmm I guess but I’ll have to do some research when i get home, I’ll also ask around at my academy if anyone knows so if i find something out i’ll tell you

Dustin Stevens · Oct 15, 2018

I would be interested i think it would be fun and i have inerface so i can record direct in

Romain Tassan · Oct 15, 2018

Alright Dustin.
Please keep in mind that when the time comes, I will need your video with JUST your solo, and WITHOUT the backing track playing in the background. It’ll be much easier for me when I’ll mix all videos. If you’re using an interface it will be easy to only put your solo track on your video, but if you’re using a Zoom for instance, please make sure the only thing that it’s recording is your guitar playing, and not the backing track. Use headphones to hear the backing track while you’re playing. But I will remind you that later, no worries

Dustin Stevens · Oct 15, 2018

Yup it should be pretty easy im gonna run it through my daw and add video track and mute the backing track but how are we gonna go about sharing files

Romain Tassan · Oct 15, 2018

I’ll give my email adress to all participants in due time

Filip Tomiša · Oct 16, 2018

@Ids Did some research, you should be able to use either interface on your mac so just decide if you need a second guitar input or not

Noah Berends · Oct 16, 2018

Hey I’d love to participate if it’s still open.

Romain Tassan · Oct 17, 2018

Yes Noah it’s still open

Nadim Captan · Oct 17, 2018
