I'm dealing with a similar problem. My equipment is not great (Shure KSM 137 and Blue Baby Bottle mics, M-Audio Fast Track Pro preamp/interface) and I'm wondering if a better interface or a pre that bypasses the M-Audio pres would help give me cleaner and quieter recordings. As it is, I feel like the gain needs to be set too high, which can't be helping with overall noise in the recording.
