I'm recording in a walkin closet. I have no bouncing in high and mid frequencies but the problem is that I couldn't get rid of the low frecuencies bouncin so i'm getting some boomy sound in my recordings. The room is very small, its covered completely with acoustic foam except the shelves full of clothes. The measures are 5,6" long 4" width 7,55" height. Is there any advice you can give me on that??? I'm spanish voice talent located in Chile, south america. Thanks in advance. Nagi Thanks for the tips Alexis.

But I'd always used a little Soundcraft Compact Ten as a submixer, patched prior to the Solo. Working on a simple little voice only thing ATM and "YAHHHH!!!!!" - where the hell has all that high pitched whine come from??? It took a while and then I realized I'd NEVER used the inbuilt preamp and phantom power before, only the Soundcraft pre's. I'm really lucky to have an AT 8501 phantom supply, so that got rid of the whine, but MUCH prefer the quieter (particularly at high levels) nicer pre's on the soundcraft. So, disappointed. \8O( 5.5 out of 10 Well I’ve had one for a number of years and thought I was very happy with it.

I'm new to recording gear so i appreciate any replies! Thanks!

Or you can disable the soft control so that it's only playback coming through the monitors. Horto, it should plug into the macbook pro's firewire connector without any issues. The FA66 doesn't have a usb connector so you'd need to plug your usb dj interface into the macbook.
