A little while back, I think sometime over the course of this past winter, I was inquiring about all of the necessary pieces of equipment needed to record your own sound (guitar and vocals) from your home. I had at that time bought a used condenser mic (i think that was the kind...)--& anyway, due to the lack of a fully functioning computer; and some complications with getting the mic to record distortion free on my iphone, I gave up. Now that I have a brand new laptop (non mac - is that PC?) see, i dont' even know. . . which lets you know what or where Im at in terms of level! But Im' wondering if I purchased the solo focusrite that many were recommending at the time, which i believ comes with the softward for you computer. What else would be a prerequisite for getting started? Are there any other essential elements, or components missing? Also, is it best to at least get the one with two plugs (or inputs), so that you can simulataneously play and sing at the same time? Thats what i normally do when practing. Thaks!
