Where can you buy a cost effective sound card with fiber optic inputs? I bought a DiO 2448 for $110 at (I should really get a discount for free advertising!) and run it at the same time as my SoundBlaster, which is used for output to my studio amps. Don't bother maximizing the sound level track by track, that can be taken care of in the post-processing mix. If you are using the analog method, find which setting avoids any overload of the sound card's analog input. The second advantage of using a fiber optic cable is that there is no sound card input gain to adjust. This drops the noise floor to -90 dB, a very respectable number for amateur recording. Later on I invested in a Sharp home MD/CD deck with fiber optic output (because it was on sale for $130) from Minidisco (above). This would give me a noise floor of about -59 dB, which you can hear as a very quiet hiss under normal listening levels. In my early days I used the recorder's analog output to my sound card's line input.

Most portable MD recorders cannot do this.

The absolute best way to post process to transfer from the MD player to the PC over a fiber optic cable. However there are some things you can do to "polish up" before burning a CD, this step is called post processing. You should be amazed at the recorder's stereo clarity, if it is your first time. So you've got home and listened to the live recording. Remember also the Sharp MD recorder input level compression is very good at handling peaks. I don't bother putting on my headphones (looks geeky, and hard to do while performing!) but just keep an eye on the MD recorder level meter. My budget microphone pole is actually the 1/2" diameter poles from two living room stands screwed together to clear 7 feet using one of the original light stands as a base! I then use a 20 foot extension cable bought from the Sound Professional guy (above) to run to my MD recorder. Either sit in the ideal listening position with the MD recorder on your knee (and a single point stereo microphone) or put the microphones high up on a tall pole to clear the audience rustles and coughs.
If the ideal recording position is right in the middle of the audience seating area, you have two options.
Walking around the room with headphones fully covering the ears and a single point stereo microphone plugged into your portable MD recorder during a rehearsal will help you find the room's sweet spot. Don't worry too much if the balance is not quite right as there are post processing techniques to address this problem.Įvery room, especially large ones, has a sweet spot, where all the sounds reverberate just right. The concert producer should have made the appropriate arrangements for any sound reinforcement to ensure that the audience hears the right balance, although on occasion this may not happen - typically a soloist is too quiet against the accompaniment. Since you are making a live recording of an entire group of musicians and/or singers, then the microphone recording location should be far enough away to get the entire mix of sounds without a single instrument or voice drowning out the rest.
