hey Portsound,

Hang around here for a while and you'll have plenty of schooling.

Take advantage of the search option and really benifit for this site.

You'll need to start with a multi track recorder which can be PC or software. Learn how to use it, and how to process your signals.

Then move on to mics and preamps. Start small then buy one piece at a time, one that may be able to record many sources.

take a look at the Aadvark Q10 for soundcard/converter/preamp, at this point, it will be the most important thing you have after an audio workstation.

With that and a decent mic (300-500$ should be decent for you) you'll be well on your way. Absorb what's on this site, but remember this is a more advance site so you may want to check for more beginner forums (I can't think of any on the top of my head but google.com it and you're in)

Hopefully in time, you'll be one hell of a Gearslut!

Good luck
Jason
