There are different types/sizes. They have moleskins for drawing, for a diary, for a journalist, etc.

I use mine for drawing tho.

I see. I doubt I would need one as for all my notes, would be on my laptop. All my appointments and calendar dates would go on iCal and all my artwork would go on Photoshop on my LAPTOP! :)

I can't live without computers.

Latency issues? Can you hear yourself through it?

No latency unless you put certain complex effects on it. Then monitoring through your computer will have a bit of latency.

The sound quality is great; it's the same microphone as the regular AT2020, just with a USB connector so it can be powered by a computer. It'd be akin to buying a regular condensor mic and running it through one of those XLR/USB adapter/preamp combo things.

And yup, you can hear yourself. The gain is quite good. Meanwhile a cheap dynamic mic through my cheap FastTrack is extremely quiet; very little power and gain there.

Here's two quick recordings I made with only the AT2020. In the first, I speak for a bit then record acoustic guitar and vocals both through the mic. In the second it's just another guitar+vocal. This was just done in my living room so you might notice a bit of background noise. If you soundproof your room properly I don't imagine you'll get nearly as much. Also I screw up the singing a bit, but it's just to show off the mic, so don't laugh! :)

I did this quick and dirty, though. The AT2020 is primarily a vocal mic, and I would normally just use it for that, and either mic a guitar amp separately or run my guitar through a preamp then an interface and have it separate. For vocals alone, the AT2020 is great!

I've heard good things about the Blue Microphones Snowball as well, which is a bit cheaper, but after hearing the AT2020 on a YouTube video, I figured it was the right choice for my money!

From last night:

Been wanting the vinyl of this for a while.

I also would've gotten Radiohead's Amnesiac special collector's edition 2 CD + DVD that was released yesterday along with Kid A and Hail to the Thief, but no one had them :confused::(

Awesome! That is so good. It's my favorite NP album.

Where did you get the vinyl? I'll bet it would be hard for me to find in LA.... I'd love to frame it.....
