First of all im very new to audio recording. I did a song I did myself with Virtual DJ and a 15 dollar mic and said wow if I can do something like this amagine what I could do with some quality equipment.
Second of all. I love Hip Hop and that is what I want to do... I want to be a rapper, producer and a DJ.
I plan to go to www.mediatechinstitute.com and do their Recording Arts Program which lasts 58 weeks to really learn more about something I love.. Music.
Here is my startup setup that I will be purchasing with some christmas money.
I will be using my computer which I believe is perfect for Sonar8 which I will be using to edit my Music.
PC Setup:
AMD Athalon X2 5800+ 3.0ghz
3GB DDR2
AMD HD 4870 512 Video Card
Asus M3A32-MVP Deluxe Motherboard
First off im getting:
Emu 0404 USB 2.0 Audio/MIDI Interface
http://www.zzounds.com/a--2676837/item--EMU0404
For my mic I have decided on:
Audio Technica AT2035 Studio Microphone w/ Mic stand and Stoppit
http://www.zzounds.com/a--2676837/item--AUTAT2035
For studio headset I chose:
Sennheiser HD280 Pro Headphones
http://www.zzounds.com/a--2676837/item--SENHD280PRO
The reason I want the mobile Presonus is because I can take it to a friends house where he has a booth and use it there with my mic. Still the Emu is very good.
I also plan to get some monitor speakers in the near future but thats when I get my studio really going.
What do you all think?
