It seems like the RNP plus a good interface might be a good investment. Regardless which software you use down the line, the RNP will be useful. 2 cents. |

Get a different computer. Then get recording gear.

New computer isn't an option. Macs are more than double the cost of my PC right now, and have half the space and memory.
Thanks for your suggestion, Theo. Looked up the Sound Devices USBPre 2 and it seems promising! The demo on youtube sounds very nice too! I may be considering this now rather than the hefty cost of an RNP together with an interface. Great suggestion. |

You have a laptop PC. Can you add one of these connection protocols? If yes, do so. If not, you need a different computer, or you will be stuck with the cheesy 1/8" audio connection in your laptop. |

Looks like the first thing to do is clarify your goal.
If the goal is to record just for fun with the least impact on your wallet, then a handheld Zoom, et al might work fine. If the goal is to capture your Martin a little better, then more research is needed as options are mainly limited by budget. "Mid-priced budgets" could mean anything to anybody so the second step is to look at a budget relative to your goals. The RNP is a very good unit for the money. However, it is not a must have unit depending on your goals. The whole endeavor can be quite overwhelming so make sure you insert "fun" in there somwhere. Good luck!

I use the apogee with a baby bottle mic I like it a lot . I also use a handheld digital edirol r-09 which sounds pretty good . I have had good luck running my koa guitar with a highlander pickup through a highlander preamp plugged into my thd univalve guitar amp on the clean channel then recorded with the apogee with the baby bottle into garage band
