I would upgrade to windows XP, more ram, monitors and a better mic pre. then maybe you can get you some outboard processing units. :cool:

XP home upgrade is $100.00, loads over top of ME, M-Audio has a decent entry level pre, check out the website, as for monitors, I have a pair of Event 20/20 passives and a halfler amp, and a pair of Event PS-6, they both sound good for Rap music. also check out the KRK's and yorkvilles and warfdales. A mixer is nice to have but if you are just recording your vocals you wont need one, the control panel for the 24/96 has a mixer in it. hope this helps :D
