Well this is kind of a general question but I thought I would get a few peoples opinions. Basically I own no recording equipment...
BUT! I finally saved up to a point of where I would like to start purchasing a few things to get me started. My actual question really is if you had 500-600$ to spend, and you were a complete newbie (though I have been spending quite a while on the computer reading and watching tutorials for the past year) what would be the first things you would purchase?
I was thinking this Akai Pro EIE and get some ATH-M50 headphones. I like the fact that it has 4 inputs, it comes with Cubase, and the reviews I have seen say it has zero latency but I haven't seen that many reviews so I don't know for sure if it really is a good audio interface. And I also can't tell for sure if it has 48v phantom power.
As for the ATH-M50 headphones I'm pretty sure those are the ones I want to get.
I plan to start off by making some really lame metal songs (lame because playing music isn't my strong suit but I am alright at bass and my brother plays guitar) So I would need some drum software, such as EZ Drummer or Superior Drummer. And he doesn't have the best equipment in the world so I may need a few amp simulators and stuff.
but those are just my ideas so far, like I said what would you do if you were in my situation?
