What is the opinion of Reddit about the

Oh wow! I just looked up what a UX2 is

old school analog meters! Suh-Wheat!

Probably. Might I suggest looking at the Line 6 POD Interface or the Focusrite Scarlett 2i2?

Line 6 UX2

That’s an audio mixer.

I use the AT2035 with a Line 6 Pod UX2. It has everything you mentioned and like over 100+ vocal effects. It works amazingly well in combination. If you’ve ever watched a GassyMexican video it’s what he uses for vocal effects.

Hi — OK, I have an Audix OM-5 (http://www.musiciansfriend.com/dynamic-microphones/audix-om-5-dynamic-microphone) which I like a great deal.

For my guitars I use a Line 6 UX2 (http://www.amazon.com/Line-6-POD-Studio-UX2/dp/B001EKECC2)

MY DAW (digital audio workstation if you didn’t know) I use Ableton Live 8 (http://www.amazon.com/Ableton-Suite-Full-Version-Software/dp/B00207T6EC). While this is a GREAT and popular DAW, it’s WAY more than I need, WAY more. It was my first DAW and I just liked the reviews so went with it. While the mic and audio interface are in the ‘medium-priced’ area, Ableton is in the upper end.

As far as effects I’m willing to use just about anything if it’s ‘interesting’ to my ear. I almost always have some reverb and some delay and how much depends entirely on the song and how it sounds to my ear after I record some vocals. I think for learning purposes starting out with just reverb is a good idea. Do not use too much as it can come off kind of cheesy.

And while equipment IS important there is nothing more important than 1) the song 2) singing on key 3) singing in time. I don’t care how great the singer is if those 3 ingredients aren’t there it’s (99% of the time) just not going to work.

Take care. Let me know what else you need.
