| Studio Planning Help Hey everyone, I am graduating college with a degree in Finance in May 2009. I have a great job lined up at a financial firm. On the other hand, I have been big into recording music for about 9 - 10 years. I decided to turn my studio hobby into something real on the side (weekends/nights after my "real" job). I have the gear I already own listed below, and then I have a list of gear I want to invest in. I would like to know some thoughts on my list and see if it can be tweaked to better suit my studio needs. I want to record full-bands (rock/pop/metal/etc). I will have a live room and a control with a vocal booth. Any and all suggestions are welcome.
