I always wonder how people get great home recordings. I have a Rode NT1000 and I'm thinking about saving up for the bluebird which seems to be very popular in my genre of female singer/songwriter recordings. I have a relatively inexpensive interface (Audiobox USB PreSounus) and a MacBook Pro. My mic broke and I had it fixed but haven't tried recording with it since, I've just been using the mic on my laptop and editing sound in Garageband.

I'm pretty sure I'm going to get the bluebird, but I won't do that until I understand more about recording. How do you set up the space? I feel like a lot more goes into recording a high quality track than what I understand at this point.
