I ALSO WANT TO KNOW FOR A HOME STUDIO WHATS BETTER MAC OR PC?

Probably MAC for your criteria. I suggest that you go down to your local pro audio shop and ask their advice. They should be able to get you where you want to be.

Happy recording!

microphones, a computer interface, studio monitors, a good computer high ram and hard drive space. cables, microphone stands, a program to record to, and a shat load of money.

I want to start a home recording studio with the hole nine yards, from instrements to all of the fancy recording equipment. I need to know how to get a grant to do this. Mostly because I’m uemployed and disabled.

The government is NOT in the business of giving away free money for the sake of giving away money. There are no grants for paying bills, no grants for paying off credit cards, no grants for getting out of debt and no grants for creating a home recording studio, even for a disabled.

Grants are free, but it means OBLIGATION. You will be obligated to do as the grant sets out to do. Grants have objectives, and your purpose must fit the objective of the grant.

For one, you have to write the grant application and the grant application is not a simple document – you have to explain how your purpose for applying for the grant fits well with the objectives set out by the grant.

There is a stringent review process through a committee. You will compete with other applicants for the grant money, and this grant review committee will evaluate the merits of each proposal. Only those that they feel exemplifies the objective of the grant will be approved.

You can go to the Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance (CFDA) http://www.cfda.gov and Grants.gov http://www.grants.gov – these are two sites created by the federal government to provide transparency and information on grants. Browse through the listings and see if you can find any grant that would support your purposes.

Even if you buy books on "how to get grants" or list that supposedly has information on grants — all of them are mere rehash of what CFDA has, albeit packaged differently.

Note though that these grants generally support non-profit organizations, intermediary lending institutions, and state and local governments. Most of the federal grants are given to specific target groups with specific requirements (e.g. minority business owners involved in transportation related contracts emanating from DOT – Grant#20.905 Disadvantaged Business Enterprises Short Term Lending Program. Individuals especially for personal purposes are not eligible for federal grants.

Grants are also often given to non profit groups or organizations involved in training or other similar activities (grant 59.043 Women’s Business Ownership Assistance that are given to those who will create women’s business center that will train women entrepreneurs

Go down to your local Pro Audio shop. They will be able to walk you through what you need for what you are trying to accomplish.

Me and a friend are looking into starting up a Recording Studio, yet we need help with what to buy and where to start in order to be able to record good songs, this meaning could you list, the types of microphones, software mixers etc with prices? we’re looking at a budget of £2000.

A well-equipped recording studio can raise the quality of an album track or even a low-budget demo by several notches. The advantages gained in comparison with recording at home or without proper equipment are manifold, for example –

1. Isolating ambient noise. A sound-proofed studio will isolate all ambient noise, which is nearly impossible to do at home.
2. Preventing flutter and unwanted delay – A recording studio always has walls made to absorb sound, so it does not allow sound waves to bounce around the room. This prevents the cracked sound that flutter can create.
3. Quality equipment – A sound studio can invest in expensive recording setup, which is impossible or impractical for recording artists. Good equipment ensures accurate representation of the instrument’s sound in the final production.
4. Isolating the sound of every instrument in a group recording – The cohesion of a group performance is impossible to recreate by putting together pre-recorded tracks. However, recording group performances without good equipment invariably results in sound leakage, especially with drums.
5. Allowing musicians to record together from different locations – with the advent of digital sound, mixing and mastering, musicians from all over the world can collaborate on a single project without ever having to be in the same location.
6. On-spot plugins and sound effects. These serve to enhance a composition as well as to generate certain effects that would be absolutely impossible without the advent of modern technology.

Ok i am planning on making a small music studio for rapping but i dont know what kind of microphone and mixer would work? I have some suggestions here

Yeah, that looks like a start.

A condenser is good, you could also get the Shure SM58, it’s the standard mic for vocals.

I recommend getting a USB interface. The right one would even have phantom power, so you wouldn’t technically even need a mixer, as long as you have the right software. I use one, most of the time, though, I like to have more control over my inputs.

Saul

we are thinking about building one in our basement.

tascam dp01fx-digtal 8 track with a 40 gig hard drive, guitar effects(and it burns CDs), and phantom power. I’ve been using it for over a year and haven’t had any problems. Sounds just like a professional recording. I paid $799 when it first came out last year but I think they’re down to about $500 now. The only bad problem that it has is that it doesn’t have pitch control. Other than this you’d need an amp and monitor.

Im trying to record my demo cd out of my home and need to know from a to z, everything i will need in order to get me going. tHnx PPL =]

Well, You need:
1- A computer
2- A DAW (Digital Audio Workstation)
3- An Interface (I/0 input/ output)
4- A Microphone
5- Cables
This is your minimum to make your Demo.

A DAW is the program you use to record and mix your songs. A few examples are, Sonar, Cubase, Logic…There’s a free one called Audacity, although it’s not a true DAW, and isn’t gonna give you as good results.

The interface is a box that allows you to connect your Mic’s and instruments so that you can route that audio to your computer.

For Recording use a Studio Condensor Mic, Maybe as inexpensive as $50.

If you want to make your own Demo’s then you’re gonna need to invest at least some $.

Assuming you already have a computer, then If you look for things used, or online, you can probably get all you need for $250 or so, or maybe less.
