I wanna make a studio in my room where i can record my shit. What should be the first couple pieces of equipment i purchase. I got a mic (shitty one) and a computer, got some mixing software (Acid, Cool Edit). That's it right now, let me kno wat order i should purchase my shit in that'll be the most effective/efficient, since right now my budget is kinda tight.

holla

since you already got cool edit and acid......you are basically half way there......if you computer has a burner id say youre pretty much set except for the mic.......you can find a good dynamic mic for under 50 bucks at like any electronic store.....

i think your next purchace should be some kind of sequencer....personally id pick up a software based sequencer such as Fruity Loops.....its pretty affordable and easy to use(in my opinion)

fruity loops as a sequencer? i dont think so buddy

i know you from BC so go to tom lee music and get a mic. what are you doing for beats tho?

cool edit pro is ok if you dont know what your doing. but later on id get something like cubase for your recording

well as far as beats go right now, I aint got shit really. Im workin on a mixtape, and in the meantime searchin for some peeps who got tight beats.

hmm, i got fruityloops and Reason 2.0 aswell, dunno how to use em tho, I havent been fucken wit makin beats really, thinkin bout maybe startin.

yea i dont really kno wasup wit mixing programs and shit, I'm gettin a bit more familiar wit cool edit/ACID and then i dunno, maybe cubase would be a good idea, maybe some other shit (pro tools?).

btw, I made a thread aboiut the mic im using right now, its not good at all i think but its wat im sportin right now, when i get some money ima go grab something better. Thanks for tha plug ill check that Tom Lee place.

Roland has shitty products...except for it's keyboards...and drum machines...
you can get a pretty good mic for around 150...from Studio Projects
and a nice preamp from M-Audio (the DMP3) for the same price i think...
go with a Delta soundcard...
this is the cheap way to have an alright studio
