Thanks for everyone's response. It looks like I'm going to go with the Yorkville YSM1P or the Yamaha MSP5. I'd like to to listen to both of them out before I make the decision. It's the right price range and I believe the quality will suit me fine. My favorite comment was " "The fact is...

WHICH MONITORS DO I CHOOSE? I'm convinced that I need monitors and I need to stop relying so heavily on my headphones. I've been using just my headphones since I started recording (August 2003). My"studio" is the extra bedroom on the 2nd floor of our house...approximately 12 x 12...typical...

I spent hours exploring www.studiocovers.com. It has links to a lot of excellent information...especially for newcomers. Check it out! It's nice! I'm less inclined to send a question via email since I'm in discovery mode right mode. If there's something very specific I need to ask, I may...

Whew! I'm a newbie and I'm glad I don't have any of the gear your listed. In fact, I've never even heard of any of the gear you listed. Maybe ignorance is bliss. J

And one more thing......I can't wait to get rid of that newbie moniker.

This summer I decided to make the jump into amatuer home recording. I decided to invest in "computer recording" gear because it's less intimidating to me (during the day I'm a software developer). I also believe it less costly to get started. That being said, it's possible that I've been...
