Hey everyone.... I'm looking to start a new recording studio using a Mac G4 w/Digital Performer... I'm just curious what equipment you'd recommend to start out with. (i.e. - what mixers, midi, monitors, mics, preamps, synths, etc....) Basically just looking for some different ideas for complete studio setups for starting out using the mac g4 w/Digital performer. Any advice would be much appreciated. Thanks.

lol.... sorry... umm.... I want to record anywhere from 4 to 16 tracks, mostly doing acoustic guitars and vocals, possibly some full rock band recordings, but mostly just acoustics and vocals to start out, and probably would like to get a midi controller to work on some electronica, based off that, what equipment do you think would be good to obtain or essential to start out? I'm using a mac G4 w/digital performer, and thinking of getting the audiophile firewire interface. Should i use something other than digital performer, should i get the interface, and if so... what else should I get or would be recommended to just kind of start learning the recording process and be able to gradually pick it up and buy more equipment. Just kind of looking for the basic essentials to be able to start recording some tracks and working with software and mixing and editing and then eventually build up to a bigger/more efficient studio setup.
