Sometimes you have to make some clear goals in your life! Mine is this:
Don't pay too much attention to the MOTU pieces, I have them right now (the 8pre is my main interface, I don't use the old timepiece but it has funky blinking leds), and only plan to use the 8pre for ADAT extension with the Ensemble if I have it. I'm planning to buy a lot secondhand because I'm a college student and don't have that much money. I'm still planning to use Logic for mixing because I like it and I have an MC Mix which I love. I have a nice mic collection and a good room.
As you can see, the only thing missing is a good EQ! What would you guys recommend? It has to be relatively affordable...
