Happy Jack Posted January 28, 2017 Share Posted January 28, 2017 I've sort of stumbled into signing up (free, gratis, and for nothing) with Bandhub. Thought I'd look for guidance here, but I can't find a previous topic so I'm starting one. Is anyone else here a Bandhub member? Any thoughts as to usefulness / practicality? If the thinking is that people at their respective homes record something onto their computers, what is the [size=5][color=#ff0000][u][i][b]SIMPLEST, MOST IDIOT-PROOF[/b][/i][/u][/color][/size] interface for doing this? You may have noticed a certain amount of emphasis in that last question. Before anyone points out the obvious, that it all depends on what I'm trying to achieve, I'm ... erm ... not trying to "achieve" anything. I've stumbled in here by accident and I'm looking for the lightswitch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skol303 Posted January 28, 2017 Share Posted January 28, 2017 Focusrite Solo or 2i2. Read this: http://basschat.co.uk/topic/248509-beginners-guide-to-home-recording/ Never be squeamish about going down (to the Recording forum). My cheque is in the post Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roland Rock Posted January 28, 2017 Share Posted January 28, 2017 (edited) Search the forums for bargain Focusrite equipment*. Then you can sell on at no loss if you don't get on with it. *Vested interest Edited January 28, 2017 by Roland Rock Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muppet Posted January 28, 2017 Share Posted January 28, 2017 Another vote for the 2i2 and somethng like Reaper maybe?The Focusrite preamps sounds really good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fleabag Posted January 28, 2017 Share Posted January 28, 2017 There's some talk on the place on another forum.. Might be worth a read https://justinguitarcommunity.com/index.php?topic=35405.0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashweb Posted January 28, 2017 Share Posted January 28, 2017 +1 for the Focusrite 2i2 but go for the 2nd gen version. I use one for playing over Skype and have managed to record onto my laptop with it via Audacity. Bandhub sounds very similar to Wikiloops if you're looking for other options to play with - one may suit you more than the other. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fred Leicester Posted January 28, 2017 Share Posted January 28, 2017 And another vote for the Scarlett 2i2 here as well. I'm a compete technical dunce, and found it super easy to get up and running :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
