Midi Usb

You can copy me and take all the guesswork. One thing I know how to do is build a home recording studio starting from zero for very little money.

It is hard when you're first starting, I know. Not sure what to buy, what you can get for free, if the components are compatible with each other, if you're going to buy something else to get this or that gadget working properly.

It can be very frustrating. Let me tell you a little story about an experience I had When starting out, and see if it sounds familiar.

I did some research online and decided that I needed a new MIDI device, or a MIDI cable to connect my existing keyboard. I did not know that. So I went to a store "good reputation" of music. I asked the two vendors that I needed, and do you know what I found? They knew even less than me! I was thrown under which they had never heard of. I was shocked and dismayed.

Then I went to another store even more famous music, and called on the MIDI device I had almost decided to buy. But I had a question ... or if I not need a new soundcard. This salesman acted like he knew exactly what he was talking about when he said: "The sound card has nothing to do with it."

Even I knew that was not right. So I decided I had to go it alone.

By trial and errors (and without the help of anyone at any music stores!) I finally built a really cheap and high-functioning Beginner home recording studio on your computer.

Here's what I use and recommend to all beginners looking to start:

The software, which is the foundation of your studio is very important. Get the bad, and you'll be stuck not being able to do much (the free stuff) or may not be able to understand and easy to use (the expensive stuff). The one I use is easy, cheap, and feature-rich. This is the winning combination, people, and I have met once in my research.

The microphone is the next factor the most important. Most of them require additional equipment, just to use it with your computer. I know that a large is a USB plug and play pattern (rare), very high quality, and also serves as an audio interface for your guitar or other instruments.

Finally, the MIDI device. It is not necessary if you just want to play guitar and sing, as disconnected recordset or something. But if you want to add virtual instruments to your mix, and control of all parts easily via a keyboard, then you need one of these. And I will personally say that this is the coolest piece of equipment you can get for your studio. Very addictive and fun to play with. If you do not think you need it now, you'll wonder how you ever managed without it after you've used it for a few weeks!

Here are the 3 components of a beginner home recording studio I recommend:
#1. Microphone - Samson G Track USB Microphone and Audio Interface
#2. MIDI Controller - M-Audio Axiom 25-Key MIDI Controller
#3. DOWNLOAD the Best Recording Software for your beginner home recording studio instantly!
