Greetings,I was able to get State Farm to insure my studio. They had a difficult time understanding the whole thing at first and sent underwriters out twice to check the place out. At first, my payments were about $230 a month for a million dollar policy but it has now dropped to about $140 a month. It falls 10 -20 dollars a year – lucky me. I originally had Zurich but they dropped my policy because they, too, just didn’t understand what they were insuring. Again, I’ve been happy with state farm now for about 5 years and I think they could provide you with what you need. Oh yeah, I have a 5K deductable which was the minimum I could get at the time. If you studio isn’t worth much more than that then that could be a problem.Good Luck,
Shure released a new microphone this year, the PG42 and PG27 both of which come ready for USB connectivity. They have a full frequency response 20Hz-20kHz which makes them good for all applications be it vocal, or instrument.I can’t tell you much about software to use, but if you’re running a new Mac it came standard with Garage Band. It’s a very user friendly application for a simple home recording to send to friends or family.I would assume all you would need to do once you’ve plugged in the USB on the microphone (assuming you purchase the above) would be to click on Garage Band in the file bar at the top of your screen, select preferences, Audio/MIDI, the select for audio input whatever your microphone comes up as in the drop down list. After that hit record and you should be gold.
Is it interfering with your recording or is it just coming through external speakers? If it’s just with the speakers, You can use ferrite clamp-on chokes if you are using coaxial type (round) speaker cable. If you are using 2-conductor zip (flat) cord, you can use ferrite cores.What is it you are hearing in the speakers? Is it music or voice? If voice, is it understandable or is it kinda muffled and sounds like a duck on helium? If it is the later, it’s a Ham radio operator, probably operating on high power. He (or she) might be willing to help you with the problem. If your speakers use 2-conductor zip cord. You can also put a 47 pf capacitor across each speaker jack.
it really depend on what you want to record with it it. what are you recording to? a good vocal mic you can use is an audio technica at4040 microphone.. is it a large daiphragm, condenser mic. so, it will need phantom power to make it work. you can also use it to record acoustic guitar, or just set it up in a room to record music. another good mic is the akg c 1000 microphone. its an outstanding microphone to put in a room and just record what is happening. again, it is a condenser mic so you need phantom power.another good mic is the shure sm57 and sm58. they are both dynamic mics so you dont need phantom power. these are good study mic that you can use from vocals, to guitar, to drums. all in all, its hard to record music with one mic, but you can do it. its better to have a couple mics set up so you can get better levels on what you want to record.good luck.
I live in Calgary Canada, I found studios just by going on Google and typing recording studios in Calgary. You can also go to an online phone book like yellowpages.com and type recording studio, and set it to your city. You may need to hire a sound engineer too, to produce your music for you.There is an alternative. You can get a portable studio, a condenser microphone, an amp with phantom power. Record on your own studio, then produce your voice on the computer. I have some good vocal production tips if you do think about going that route, so just email me if your interested. I know a guy who had a song on the radio with just that set up.

My husband is a producer and from what i know the best computer to use for recording and such is an apple computer. some good recording programs are reasons and pro tools. Garage band is an okay program for a beginner. but wit both reasons and pro tools you will need a controller (keyboard) it makes it a heck of alot easier to make your own beats rather than using the boring loops on garage band. if you have any other questions hit me up. im sure he can tell you anything you want to know
If you want it to sound anywhere near like a professional recording, don’t use a single microphone and a recording device. It will sound generally awful and muddled.You need a microphone for each instrument/person (Shure’s SM57 is a good all-rounder), a mixer and a decent audio capture box for the computer. Something like the Firebox is a good start, or if you’re on a strict budget, Creative’s Audigy line are acceptable.The built-in microphone preamp and line-in capabilities of all computers are not good enough for your uses. Don’t use them as your track will come out sounding tinny and “thin”.A four-channel mic mixer can be had for fairly cheap second-hand – try ebay.
$500 an hour? Hope you got a “happy ending” with that! I could see $500 a day for a nice place… If you have to hire musicians, and engineer, rent gear though, it can add up quick. Just give the studio you’re looking at a call and see what their deal is. Every place is different.
I’m going to do a bad thing and assume that you are recording mostly vocals. If this is the case, the Audio Technica 4050 is a really good vocal mic but it can be used for just about anything. I’ve seen them for $300 used. Good luck!
