Ableton live, it's the easiest and most intuitive, with a lot of functionality

I'd recommend an m-audio interface so you can attach any instruments you want to your pc. Sound card wise, it depends what motherboard you've got. Newer motherboards have HD sound chips in now so a seperate sound card isn't essential. Which DAW you use is down to personal preference really but I like to use ableton live 7.

if your recommending the m-audio (unless your meaning the midi only) then the onboard sound is redundant

as for ableton being the easiest thats subjective, i liked as a sketch pad and for live work, as a DAW i couldn't get along with it

Id highly recommend audacity as well as the others. Its basically a lesser clone of acid, but you could easily record proper tracks with it, and a multitude of built in effects to use, and best of all, its 100 percent free

I would NOT recommend an m-audio interface as these are very poorly made, and extremely unreliable. I would recommend a MOTU audio interface as these are very high quality and totaly reliable.

Well programming midi sequences is really in ableton, automation of parameters for vsts has a good interface, and wav editing is also easy to do. Plus there's the warp function for mp3s so beat matching for djing is simple and quick to do.

The basic kit your going to need is a computer run your chosen software, and audio interface. Now depending on what you plan to record will dictate the number of inputs you need. If you want to record bands i would suggest a minimum of eight mic/line inputs.

i was thinking of getting a 12 or 16 channel mixer. what do you think about mackie mixers. can you do a mixer review thread plz? lol
|

|
|
@xashanx | 1 July 09 |
|
i mean even different mixers seem to sound different from each other.
|
||
|
|
@jpdv | 1 July 09 |
|
without sounding like a cop out, and no reflection on prodigits users, i would consider looking at dedicated forums on the net for reviews, info etc

Next you will need some monitor speakers and this is where it can get difficult because different makes and models can sound different. The goal is to find a pair that will help you to make good mixes that sound good when played on a range of audio equipment.
