Looking for what I need to record music at home. I am buildng a studio, but am not sure of what software and other equipment I need to do the actual recording and editing. Please let me know of what all I need to record and create music. Thanks in advance.
i recommend getting an audio interface to connect mics/instruments to your computer. the interface will include the software you need to record and edit. choosing an interface will be based upon how many inputs you want. if you are wanting to record a full band, you will need inputs for all of the instruments and mics. you can also record each instrument individually and mix them together, in that case you wouldn’t need a lot of inputs. these interfaces will run from under a hundred to a few thousand. it depends on the number of inputs and the brand.
once you’ve got that then all you need is a mic. do some research on what mic will fit your situation as you start recording. i like the Rode NT1a which runs about $240. also you can go with the shure sm 57 or sm 58 to get started. i believe those are each around a hundred. the mic is the most important piece of gear you will have in a studio because it captures the sound. if you buy a cheap mic, you will get a cheap sound.
from there you would be pretty much set for basic recording. you can add on from there. studio monitors should probably be your next investment as well as adding a few other mics and maybe some plug-ins for mixing.
check guitarcenter.com sweetwater.com and musiciansfriend.com they will typically offer studio packages which will include a variety of things to get yourself started.
at some point you may also need some sound treating material but you can usually avoid a lot of this with creativity and research on room acoustics.
good luck

recently I’ve wanted to get into making beats but i have no idea what types of equipment are used, ive heard of the mpc 3000 and i know pianos are used, and in particular i want to make R&B beats i use FL studio but i cant find the sounds or the quality im looking for obviously i don’t have a professional studio but if anyone has any information on the kinds of equipment that are used it would be REALLY helpful and a full description of how to use them.
i got you
Keyboard – if you have a huge pocket book and dont mind putting out $2000 + for a keyboard then take a look at the roland fantom, korg m3, yamaha motif and other things. if youre a little short on change then try a midi keyboard like the m-audio axiom 49 ($250) or even lower m-audio keyrig49 – (
$100)
Audio Interface – this is what you connect things like microphones, guitars, and monitors to. take a look at the tascam us122 ($129) or check out some m-audio ones. the more expensive ones give you more spots to plug in mics and other stuff.
Monitors – (speakers) – do some research and figure out which one will give you the best mix. a lot of beginners use the KRK rokit 5s ($150 per speaker), but the more professional artists use a bunch like Yamahas or Mackies with a subwoofer.
DAW – (Digital Audio Workstation, the software) – you want to find a DAW that will do everything you want it to do. Protools is the industry standard, but there is a LOT to learn in it and people even take classes. Take a look at Sonar, Cubase, Reason, Logic (if you have a mac). I use FL Studio too and if you want to keep using that start looking into VST instruments to get better quality sounds.
Mixer – Optional
Mic – not really my area, but go to your local Guitar Center and ask them questions. they’re usually pretty good about helping you out, or you can go to sites like www.zzounds.com or guitarcenter.com and read what other people say about them.
hope this helped
