I want to take the step to analog and buy a reel to reel tape machine to record a finished song from my DAW to tape and then re-record it back into my DAW to get that warm analog feel. I was just wondering what kind of equipment I would require and how I would go about doing this. My set-up...

I am moving into a new bedroom in the next week, I was wondering whether anyone could give some advice to me about how best to set up my room for recording. Also take into consideration that a small part of the desk will be for working. I have some pictures here:

My mate has just offered me a 'Drawmer Lx20 dual compressor' and an 'Alesis Quadraverb ' for free. However I dont know if they will be better than the compressor and effects presets in Logic 9 Pro. Could anyone tell me if its worth adding the two into my setup? Cheers

At the moment I am using Logic 9's Ultrabeat drumming program to create my rock/indie drum beats. However its still easy to tell that they are programmed and not real. How would I make them sound more real? Is there any programme which would be better to use that would work with Logic? Thanks, Jack
