I have been slowly starting to build up my in home studio. It was started as a project just for myself to use and have fun but now some friends have started coming over and want to record some too. I'm really starting to enjoy learning the software (even though I don't know much).
I have 2 computer setups (one for fast and easy, one for something that we really like and want to work on seriously).
The computers are
1) Fast and easy - Windows PC running Mixcraft
2) Detailed - Mac running Logic Pro 9
The current setup is just m-audio mobile pre with an Audio Technica 2035 mic. So far I dont really have any complaints but I am going to get a small amount of spending money (about $500) and was wondering what to add next. Should I focus on getting a couple more different mics or get away from the mobile pre and into something a little better? Right now my 2 inputs seem to work fine and I'm not doing any traveling so I don't need gig mics or anything. I figured with different people (different voices) coming in maybe it was time to pickup another mic? Any thoughts or suggestions?
Also for the space all I've done is taken a walk in closest and added padding around the room to kill vibrations, the recordings come out pretty silent but I've also been using logic pro to clear out any background noise if some pops up.
thanks
