humm it seems my reply wasn't posted...
anyways i wanted to thank you guys for helping me.
we will record with a yamaha digital recorder, plus maybe this 
Behringer 2496...
my question was mainly about any general thing i should pay attention 
with, as i never had to deal with babies like these and it's possible 
that i make some common-beginner mistake. so...is there something i 
SHOULDN'T do?
many recomended me to use some valve/tube/amp----any specific 
recomendation on which one to use or which one to absolutely avoid?

thanks again!!
ciao
PAolo:)
