I've spent over $6Gs and still haven't made anything that I like yet. My homeboy said that I should rent out studio time to some locals. Hopefully by the end of the year I will start making some $ back on this. Sooooo much to learn and so little time during the day.

 

[OBERHEIM MA1000]

I'd put more capital into my studio but times are ruff right now,Im just workin with a basic software setup and a few hardware midi controllers plus a numark tt with a busted tonearm lol but it still samples like a charm.

If I could I'd put no more than $8K into my homestudio and work with whut i got until the next upgrade,Im thinking of maybe taking out a bank loan so i could upgrade but reason's hasn't let me down yet so I'll keep milking some hits out of her lol
