Hey Everyone,
I'm starting to plan out a home rig that I want to put together in 4-5 months. I just wanted to get some feedback and suggestions for how to build an efficient (not totally top of the line) setup that isnt ridiculous in price.
VEP Slave - already have a 6core 32GB PC (going to upgrade to 12core & 96/or 128GB RAM)
Sequencer - Thinking of a refurbished Mac Pro 12core upgraded with 64GB RAM (I really prefer the Mac OS to windows)
ProTools Machine - Basic Mac Mini just to sync & play back video
Audio Interface - Considering one of the UAD Apollo MKII
MIDI - iConnecivity Mio10
Faders - no idea, would love a kenton but cant find them, and the fadermasters are too expensive
Monitors - Still undecided
I also want to buy a good standard mic for recording various things, but dont want to drop a lot of money as most of what I record ends up textural or heavily effected.
Also, any suggestions on what you use to treat your room acoustically would be great!
I definitely want to invest in this but also dont want to go broke doing so! haha
Thanks for your suggestions!
