I'm on a budget for putting together a compact studio for two and I've decided it's about damn time I make this happen once and for all. I'm not too serious about producing, so I'm not looking at having the latest PC/keyboards/amps/etc... This is just something I'm putting together for fun. At the same time, most materials/machines are based on a low energy, non-carbon basis.

Any ideas are welcome.

What it looks like now:





What I'm planning on doing. Ignore the lighting on my shitty rendering skills lol.

Three most important parts of a studio are in no particular order

1. Monitors
2. Computer
3. Audio Interface


spend half your budget on the monitors and acoustic treatment

The drugs are to make you forget you spent the other half on drugs.

The audio interface is on its way. The monitor will be a tv/lcd hdmi monitor, and the computer I'm currently building.

tard monitors are speakers

I think he meant audio monitors, i.e. Your studio speakers.
