Okay, I don't have 3500 YET. I'm considering selling my electric piano which i figured I could get about 3500$ for it. Since I still need a way to play piano/keys, I figured I'd buy a keyboard and amp.
This solves 2 things: 1) My need for somehow playing piano, and 2) Gives me the option to perform live/in a band, which I can't right now due to only a non portable electric piano. I thought that I'd buy a GOOD used keyboard which would save me some money hence it's used, and an amp, together for 1500$ ( am I being realistic there <--?) I'd have 2000$ left. My main purpose right now is hiphop/pop production, and recording solo artists for vocals.
What I have right now is :
Tascam USMK144 II (Interface)
M-Audio Keystation 62 es (Midi controller)
MPD 26 (midi controller)
M-Audio AV40 Monitors
AT4040 (Microphone)
AT ATH M50 (Headphones for monitoring)
I don't have a mixer or any rack equipment.. but my question is, do I really even need it?
I decided I'd spend 100$ on acoustic treatment, since I already made a couple of bass traps.
So I'm leaving you with 1400$ left. What should I buy? I think I'm set for production, I mainly wanna focus on recording audio. Tell me what you think ! I was thinking of splitting the money between a mic and new interface/pre, but forgot I should probably grab some better monitors aswell -.-
Let me know what you guys think !
