only if it's cheaper than buying on another site. presonus preamps and rode mics are cheaper on ebay cus theyve been around a long time. some stuff is actually more expensive on ebay.

I'm still tryin to get my mic to work. It's either the cable that hooks the pre into the back of the computer or the mic cable. But I don't wanna waste money to find out.

aye... i want to get a cd quality set up or somethin' better.....but i only have about 600 to a g to put down on it.....i know alot of people don't really check this part of the site often and leave feedback...but i really need some help from RB so please get on this quick!! OPEY, THE GREAT WHITE, BRANDON HEAT!!! ANYBODY PLEASE HELP ME!!
you're gonna need more than $1000 to be able to mix cd quality man. and LMFAO @ CD quality or BETTER. wtf??
anyway for $1000 go with this:
Emu 1212 Sound Card ($200)
Focusrite TrakMaster PRO ($300)
Rode NT2a Mic ($400)
Sony MDR-7506 Headphones ($100)
well how much would i need for cd quality.....cuz i dunno what i would need and how much i would spend......my complete max would be 5 g's.....would i be any closer to cd quality?
cd quality = pro studio quality = $$$$$$$$$$$$$
but u can get close to cd quality with a good soundcard, class A preamp, good mic, good monitors, and proper acoustic treatment. I think u can definitely accomplish that with a $5000 budget. somethin like...
Neumann TLM 193 mic
Digi 002 mixer
Event SP8 Monitors
that should sound nice with the right acoustic environment and mixing techniques.
Thanx Opey!!...If anyone else has some other suggestions on what i can get with a 5000 dollar budget feel free to post
really theres a lot of stuff u can get. theres a lot of options with a budget like that. i honestly suggest going to the music store and trying out some high dollar mics around $1000. if u order a mic for a G and it doesnt go well with your voice you're gonna be pissed. definitely get those monitors tho. and if you want pro tools u definitely want the digi 002. if not then id go with a motu HD interface and a third party DAW control mixer like a Tascam US 2400.
alright thanx man
I'm getting deeper into production and I'm sick of hitting my computer keyboard to trigger sounds .. so plz tell me what midi controller you guys like .. lets stay around 300. thanx.
INSANE JOKA LYRICIST
the m audio keystation pro 88 is ill as fuck. its probably the best midi controller out right now. i got mine at guitar center for $400 and i also got a 20% discount off that. best peice of equipment i own.
what about the trigger finger? or the MPD16? i have never used either of these but I hear good things...
WST$DE
the mpd16 is nice too. that might be my next purchase. I havent used the trigger finger tho.
i have 500-700$ for a set up looking to make pro or pretty close to pro tracks
ive been rapping for 6 years or so but have just started audio using pc programs and i still need to learn how to mix etc etc, im new to the site but opey and others seem very helpful and ive seen all the tutorials and stuff on the site so i best get reading :P but yeah whats the best setup you would recommend.
thanks heeps!
