Just looking for some opinions on what I should spend it on...
Here's what I need:
A "workhorse" mic for recording at least halfway decent vocals, acoustic, and electric guitar amp. This is most important as mine just took a dump on me.
Here's what I'm considering:
Monitors. I'll probably end up with the krk rp5's, but I was just wondering... Without any room treatment, will monitors even make any difference at all? In other words, will they noticeably help my mixes out compared to the old bookshelf speakers I'm using now? I'm hesitant on room treatment at the moment, as I still live with my parents for the time being, so I'm not in a permanent "studio" setting.
Here's what I have now:
Newer HP laptop
Alesis multimix 16usb
Stereo reciever... using as my speaker amp.
Old bookshelf speakers. 4'' woofer, 1'' tweeter.
Fender hot rod deville 212.
Agile al3000
Martin DXME
Various other pieces that arent noteworthy for this post.
So, any suggestions? If I missed something, feel free to mention something else I should look into purchasing.
