4. Open up your favorite DAW and start
a new session.
5. While most DAWs work (relatively)
the same, the path to recording may
be different. As such, refer to your DAW’s
manual on how to open new sessions,
create tracks, select the USB microphone,
arm tracks and the best part... recording!
Have fun!
