Recording on PC.

I have Bose L1 with B1 and T1 audio engine. I am fond of Indian(hindi)songs. I want to record my own singing on my PC using the Bose system. What should be set up like? I have used Audacity, but the recording was not good. Sounded like I am singing in a tunnel. I want clear sound, which I can edit later. Please advise. Thanks.

Hi milin1609,

If you are using effects while you are recording you can end up with less than clear sound. You can't edit out effects once they are in the recording, but if you record without effects (dry) you CAN add effects later.

Hi, milin1609.

If you want to minimize the "sounds of the room", then try recording just using the T1, via the USB interface ... if that's not what you are currently doing.

If you prefer to have some of the "room sound" in the original recording, then it becomes a matter of positioning the recording microphone(s) closer to the speakers to reduce the amount of "reflected room sound" (vs. direct sound) at the microphones.

As ST said, whichever way you record, don't add effects with the T1 while recording -- add them later with Audacity (or other sound app).
