Recording
your Own NAF music Have
you started recording your Native American flute
yet? In
the last article that covered recording your NAF we
looked at the components needed to get started.
They were a microphone, an audio interface, a pair
of speakers (AKA monitors) and recording software.
You'll also need a few cables but usually the
cables needed for any one piece of gear come with
it. For a review go back and read Recording
your own NAF songs. Most
people know that a microphone converts sound waves
to electrical impulses. Even in these days of
digital technology this is still true. So how do
those electrical impulses get converted to the 1's
and 0's of digital code? With a device called an
Audio Interface or I/O (for In and Out.) One of the
audio interface that was mentioned last time was a
USB M-Audio
Mobliepre
Audio
Interface which runs about $150.00. Think
of this device as your audio "scanner/printer". You
plug your mic into it and sounds go through it into
your computer (like scanning) and when you play
them back they go back through the audio interface
to your speakers (like printing). THE

Many people are intimidated by the thought of using
computers to record their NAF but there is no
reason to feel this way. It's really quite easy. In
fact, if you can hook up a printer to your computer
odds are you can hook up a device that will allow
you to record to your computer.
