So, I realized that I don't really need my DJ equipment since i don't mix at home anymore. I've decided to completely reconstruct my project studio equipment. In other words, magseseryso na ko sa gamit. That translates to KACHING. Yup. Expenses. I have to get the stuff that I'll really use.
- Dispose of two mixers. I won't let go of the turntable haha
- A simple simple mixer that should, at least, accept two inputs. One for the microphone. One for the audio track that the vocalist will record to. Both channels should be audible to headphones. Control of output to the recorder/computer should be possible because, of course, the vocals will be recorded - NOT with the audio track.
- A microphone. Probably one from the KSM series of Shure.
- A compressor.
- Maybe a gate.
- If the evironment is good, I might need a control room matrix for clean and hassle-free communication with the present vocalist.
- A better sound card if I'm still patient by then.
Yup. Kaching. I don't know what i should buy first. Probably the mixer though.
