Hey, I can tell that there are many people in this thread who know a hell of a lot about production and engineering. I don't have much of a story yet, I guess im just a starry eyed kid trying to make some hiphop music that people can enjoy.
So to be blatantly honest, I came fore some advice. I have been recording in a tiny closet on a yeti usb microphone using garageband to do all my post production (I know, it is very advanced )
But next year me and a few friends are getting a place together and we are setting up a studio, most likely in a medium sized bedroom.
I currently have a macbook pro running Logic Pro 9
I have a pair of M-Audio monitors
I have a MPD 32
So my real question is, what equipment do you veterans recommend I have a budget of up to $4000 - So, How would you spend it?
Microphone? (Ive heard good things about the Rode K2, Nuemann TLM 103 and the Shure SM7B - any other suggestions?)
Interface?
Preamp?
Acoustic treatment (basstraps etc.)?
Anything else?
Thank you for your time and input
