ok, so im getting an imac, expanding it to 3gb, getting logic 8
i have speakers and studio headphones
next i guess i get an audio interface

what i want to know is, what is a good interface to get that i wont feel i will need to replace
as i learn more
im thinking a motu 828mk2 or m audio nrv10(which includes a mixer)

what would you choose.

considering i dont want to add guitars, or vocals to my music

then what??

what do you guys add as time goes on to improve your capabilities

keyboard, mixer, ...?

i want to be able to have eventually some great tools in order to make electronic/industrial style music

also(a strange question)
is there anything out there to recreate the sound of anvils, machinery, vaccuum hisses, clicks and clunks etc etc


what do you have in your studios that enhances what you can do outside of whats in logic

i forgot to mention the external harddrive, (firewire or usb?)

no problem, glad to help. just have some fun and try not to get too caught up in the process of buying kit. research and buy. then learn with what you have. don't keep throwing money at a problem to try and fill a creative void, that never works as music comes from within.

also glad to hear you aspiring to give new members tips, thats a great attitude, after all thats why i'm here, these guys here helped me a lot, there's a wealth of knowledge here. When you get to a point where you think you can chime inand help a newbie, don't hesitate, if you are less than correct in your answer, someone is sure to correct it; and thats cool too it's all learning afterall.
