I'm looking to get a home studio going, here is want I'm looking to get, let me know what you think and if there is anything I should do different. Its for mainly rock bands and accoustic stuff, I want at least 8 pres for micing drums.

Wharfedale 8.2A Monitors - 300
Yamaha MG12/4 - 200 (any better way to go for the money)
CAD M-179 x2 - 400 (200 each, anything better in that price range)
Senhieser Drum Set Mics - 400 (3 - E604, 1 - E602)
Shure SM57 - 90
ProTools Digi001 - 500 (no comments needed)
Computer Memory Upgrade - 60
Cables/Stands - 150

Total - 2100

I need to stick to the 2000 range but also hate to cut corners too much. Thanks!
 
I just found out that I can get a firewire card for my Tascam DM-24 and have 24 channels of I/O and a DAW controler. You can get a used DM-24 on ebay for $1000.00 all day and the firewire card is only $350.00. You should also check out the Tascam FW1804 for $599.00 - its Tascams version of the Digi 002R.


You could drop the Digi 001 and MG12
