Right now all i have is a computer so when i do start setting up i will have the right things

i really don’t believe in expensive setups….since I’m making lots of money with simple studio setup with quality production….its not about what u have in your setup, its in what production output u make. People judge your output production, they hear it, they don’t see your crappy setup. Although having quality hardware and software will make your work much more easier….u can just start off with basic setup and work your way up to the top.

My recommendations: (Basic hardware)
-Good quality Mic with pop-filter and a stand (condenser mic)
-Audio Interface (m-audio or digidesign brands)
-Studio Monitor (read more about it)
-Midi Keyboard (any keyboard with midi connection will do)
-Headphones (doesn’t leak out sounds….dj headphones are good)

For your DAW software…go for Pro-Tools if you get my recommended brand of audio interface i mentioned above. If not, Cubase…or Adobe Audition is easier to use. Depends on how you make your beats, FL Studio or Reason are two great softwares to help you produce your beats.

Setup:
microphone to your audio interface – midi keyboard to your audio interface or straight to your computer if it has usb connection – audio interface to your computer through usb or firewire (depends on the interface). Install Audio interface’s driver, then just set your DAW software to use your audio interface instead of your default sound card, also set it to use your midi hardware. DONE That’s it.

Investments:
- Mixer, turntables, drum pads, guitar, etc….
- the rest is up to you.

gud luck

Now, it only comes with what you need to start out. Other things like a set of keys, MPC, turntable, etc, you’ll have to get all that separately. But at the price and quality of the package, it’s the way to go. I’m going to try and buy it this summer when I save up enough money and get my own place. And then get the other accessories I need.

There is Acoustic ceiling tiles that can be used. These tiles come in 2ft by 4ft or in 2ft by 2ft panels. There is a simple track system that needs to be installed that the tiles rest in. These ceiling are in most commercial building for an example.

Lets bring in one of the Pro Tools Essential Loops to the Drums track. Go to the Window Menu and select Workspace. Click the search button, type Essential Loops, and press Enter.

Double-click the Pro Tools Essential Loops folder. You can click the triangles to open the folders; and you can click the speaker icon to audition loops. Make sure this metronome icon is green so the loops will be matched to the tempo of your song.

Find one you like and then drag and drop the file to the left of the Drums track in the Edit Window. Drop it on the far left so the audio begins at the start of the track AND on beat.

You can easily make this loop repeat by duplicating it. The loop should already be selected; if not, come up here and select this hand tool, click an empty spot to make sure nothing is selected, and then click the loop to select it. Press Ctrl + D (or Cmd+D on a Mac) to duplicate the region.

In Pro Tools you can use the spacebar to start and stop playback. Go ahead and audition the loop.

Lets go prepare to record some audio. Switch back to the mixer by pressing Ctrl + = (or Cmd + = on Mac). Ive got a guitar hooked up to the ¼ guitar input on the Fast Track. Im going to click to record enable the rhythm guitar track.

If you have a microphone hooked up and want to record your voice, or if you want to use a mic to record an acoustic guitar or guitar amplifier, click to record enable the Mono Audio track on the right.

Play your guitar or sing into your mic. Im playing my guitar but Im not getting any input in Pro Tools, and youre probably not seeing input either. Look at the I/O section here in the middle. The rhythm guitar track is set for input 1; the ¼ guitar input is actually input 2. Im going to click and change that.

The mono audio track is set for input 2, but the XLR mic input is actually input 1; go ahead and change that if youre going to record with a mic.

Now, depending on where you set the mix knob, you may be hearing your input signal, you may be monitoring through Pro Tools, or both. Turn the mix knob all the way to the left and you will only hear your direct input signal. If you were to start recording, you would not be able to hear the drum loop as you record.

Turn the mix knob all the way to the right and you will be monitoring through Pro Tools, and if youve record armed the rhythm guitar track youll hear the effect of the SansAmp preamp plug-in. When monitoring through Pro Tools, you may notice a slight delay. This is because the audio you are monitoring is going into the computer, through Pro Tools, and back to the Fast Track before you hear it.

This delay, or latency, can be reduced by lowering the buffer size. Go to the Setup Menu and select Playback Engine. Click the drop down for the H/W Buffer Size and select the next lowest setting, then click OK. If you still notice a delay, try lowering the buffer again.

As you lower the buffer size, your computer has to work harder to process everything. As you add more tracks and effects, you may need to come back and raise the buffer size to compensate for this.

OK. Now that were all setup, lets switch back to the Edit Window and record. Click the Record enable and return to zero buttons. You can use the spacebar to start and stop recording, and when youre done, you can also use spacebar to start and stop playback of your recording.

When you need to add more tracks for your mic or guitar, go to the Track Menu and choose New. You want to create mono audio tracks, so choose how many, and click Create.

You can double-click a tracks name to rename it, then click OK.

You can continue building your song by adding loops, recording tracks, adjusting the mix, and more. For more information on recording, editing, and mixing in Pro Tools, check out the Intro to Pro Tools guide found under the help menu.
