i have no idea why. i just thought it needs to be stereo in order to bring it into a video editing program. i have been messing around for days but i have no idea if my settings are in order before i begin to actually start recording. i´d be pretty frustrated if i spent hours recording and it was done wrong.

so when i record with the previous settings and it records in mono and plays back with one channel do i go up to the edit menu in audition and covert down the channels to make one single mono channel? it is obvious that i have no idea what i am doing but i assure you i have been all over the internet reading bits and pieces of info before i hit the forums. what am i doing right and what am i doing wrong? is there a video tutorial specific in audition and recording with a mic? thank you.

Ty,
I just got some equipment and I have a few more questions.
I did get some foam for the walls and I tried covering the window and glass with heavy duty blankets.
It’s probably not the best professional solution but I have to try with what I have, so for me it seems to work. I covered my computer tower to dampen the humming fan sounds, that also helped. But now I have a hum coming from my ViewSonic monitor that I never heard before. Here is the question. I think I bought the wrong style mic because the mic is picking up the hum from the monitor, so I think. It’s very faint but it is there. I also was wondering since I have to record while typing, how can I record without the keyboard and mouse click sounds. I was told it would help if I got a different style mic, one that only records in one direction. I played with the settings both on the mixer and headphones but since this is my first time it’s hard to hear the difference with and without the headphones on. I just want a reasonable level of quality. I get that this is not a professional setup and I should expect non-professional results but I guess I’m looking for the best with what I have. Any help or ideas you can give me?

Thanks.

I just got the camera, that’s why I never had to transcode anything. Once I bring it into premiere or after effects what would be the best settings? I do not have final cut.

Great advice. Thank you.

Wow, that’s a really nice room but I think that’s too far beyond what I want to invest in, maybe in the future. Would you still recommend the Audio Technica AT2020USB for what I want to do over the Rode and Blue mic?
