Sound cards for recording metal music?

Your Dell laptop has a sound card. That's what the headphone, mic, and line/aux jacks are hooked up to. The problem is that most built-in sound cards aren't very good for recording because they have a delay between the audio that's sent to the input jack til the computer receives it in the recording program.

This delay is called latency. Built-in cards usually have high-latency, meaning a big delay. External audio input/output boxes designed for recording have low latency and many useful features for recording, such as headphone jacks for pro headphones, LEDs level meters, and lots of input/output jacks for mics and instruments.

A good example is the M-Audio Fast Track Pro or MobilePre. The software for recording is called Digital Audio Workstation (DAW) software. There's a lot of brands of DAW software.

They have different advantages and disadvantage. You need to figure out how you plan to use the DAW software to pick the best one for your purposes. For example, Ableton Live is great for doing live recording/playback and looping.

ProTools is most commonly used for recording studios. The Fast Track Pro comes with Ableton Live Lite, while the MobilePro comes with ProTool SE, and both are good enough for getting started.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
