I have around £600 to get a recording set up. Already have the mics, instruments and a pre amp, so will it be a stand alone or PC?
I'm this close to buying the Fostex VF80 or Korg D1200 MkII but am having second thoughts as i'll be looking to get a pc in the not too distant anyway. How much more would i need to spend to get a set up comparable with these two units?
I know i can pick up a PC with 80 odd gigs for not too much but what other 'bits' do i need and how much?
I'm a one man band so multiple imputs aren't neccessary.
Also, What is the learning curve like with the various recording/ editing programmes like cubase? I've only ever used 4 track tape machines some time ago.
Thanks very much for any guidance and info.
