Well I want to create hip-hop/r&b music. I have $700 to spend. I would like to learn how to incorporate effects & compression into my music. I really dont want to do too much digital recording until I've got a complete feel for analog recording. If there's anything else ya need to know lemme know.

Do some searches here on this site on signal processors.

You should do a little research, first.

I'll post you a few reference sites that should help you better understand the necessary processes you'll need to make.
