I'm looking to build a PC setip (not Mac).

lul thought u meant as playing intruments,

your looking for someone whos good with business rofl

honestly, its the room your recording in thats going to make the biggest difference.

if you give it amazing acoustics then it will sound pretty good with 200$ shit and pirated software

cool. i want to get stuff too, for beginner recording. as of right now, i just use 3 amps, one for microphone, one for drum kit, one for guitar, and record with a video digital camera, and post it on youtube... what should my noobness do?

lol sounds like me ><
Cept i use 1 amp + audacity + rockband mics ftl
Megashit sound quality, so i'm looking to upgrade lol
