Doo-wop recording techniques?

I know doo wop was rather diy (starting off anyway) so I don't know if you could really categorize anything as being a doo wop recording technique really... but anyone come across good books and/or websites that talk about recording doo wop music back in the day? I'm recording a neo-doo-wop song soo...

What if I'm not anywhere near the retail store? Is there a way I can buy it/see how much it costs?

submit

what I forgot to say was that you should submit something! I'm sure you guys have come across weird sounds when recording, like I have. Submit them! Submit a collage of them. Submit that strange sound your dog makes when he/she yawns, or document the sound of the mice in your walls.

The L2 is designed to be inserted on the Master Fader, to provide you with a few choices of dither/noise shaping curves when you "Bounce To Disk" in realtime (it will also affect the wordlength of the audio going out of the digital outputs during normal playback). if I set the bit rate to 16bit... ...
