That's about what I was thinking to get for an AI. Yeah, I've seen people use Ableton and I really like the UI and feel of it. Probably gonna get Ableton + something else. Will keep y'all updated 🫡

Ohh, alright. Yeah, I actually want to get a condenser though! But AI's are for another day, I'm trying to get that PC built first of all 😆

Well, the HDD is a recommendation that I've seen that could potentially be outdated as of now. T7 looks great, does pack a hefty price though if I want to go for the 4TB 😬 I'll think about it -- thank you for the tip!

Oh it's not gonna be real instruments for sure, at least for the forseeable future. Perhaps that might change over the years as I meet new people, who knows? That's why I won't need a crazy AI with dozens of slots for now. I'm very much interested in all things computer-generated, the only...

Oof, I'll consider that. Currently I'm in a situation where Ethernet would be kinda difficult as the router isn't even close to my room...

Hmmmm. I'll look more into Thunderbolt. The mobos that I was looking at all support Thunderbolt I think, so the option will be available to me should I make the choice to go down that route. Might do it if my budget allows... Drives, yeah. That's basically what I am doing, SSD for system + HDD...

Yeah, though you get virtually 10 x the juice with a built PC than you get with a MB if you compare prices. Good advice wqith the compatability though, I'll look into that.

I see what you are saying... I'm still willing to take that risk, and I actually think that the experience in forums is a different thing because who's gonna come here and say "my build went awesome"? It's mostly the negative experiences that are being talked about, and I'm not gonna let that...

For sure, that's what I had in mind with the storage. Yeah... I know about pre-built PCs but I actually don't mind having to solve some problems along the way if it's in exchange for having control over what goes into the PC (not to mention the immense drop in price when you compare building it...

I don't think so either. Not to mention that my budget wouldn't allow for it anyways. I haven't even bought an interface yet as I'm technically speaking a total newb to all of this (have played around in BandLab and analyzed and broken down a couple of songs, but I'm literally just a few weeks...

Appreciate the welcome! 1. It might well be overkill, but in this case I think more is better haha. I am planning to keep that PC for 5-10 years, so I think I'm better off with "overshooting" rather than regretting it later down the line. Plus, I'll have more performance along the way which...

Hello everyone! I am an aspiring recording artist/producer (DAW music + vocals) and I am in the process of putting together a home recording studio. At the heart of it will be a Windows desktop PC built specifically for making music. My budget for the PC itself (excluding monitor screen...
