The On Stage 7701B Microphone Stand is a durable tripod mic stand and boom combination and just about the best value we've ever offered. These stands use the highest quality components. The legs fold down for the most compact storage...
What should I buy next for my home studio?
So I have been building a home studio for the past year or so and I really would like to start making some instrumental guitar type music.
-I have two large desks a computer (Dell DE051 w/ 512mb ram)
-Some higher quality computer speakers with a sub woofer
-A Presonus Firebox with Cubase LE
-And I have plenty of cables, a Shure SM57, 3 Behringer Mics (All Dynamic Mics)
-A large collection of Plug-ins and VSTi's
However I still need more gear...
This is what I need:
A Midi Controller Keyboard, Studio Monitors, A Mixer, A Condensor Mic and Mic Stands, Ram for my computer (1 GB to improve performance)
What should my priorities be and in what order should I buy the equiptment?
if your going to use a lot of tracks or VST you will need more Ram. 2GB or more
get a high speed HDD eg Raptor if you record a lot of tracks at once.
if your reasonably happy with your PC's performance then chose Monitors, i have a Firebox and Event ASP 8 Monitors. PC speakers won't cut it no matter how good they are, your subwoofer will not represent your bass accurately and make mixing a nightmare for you.
after that i would buy some decent rackmount compression.
compression is one of the few effects where VST won't cut it. you need decent hardware based compression.
after that i would chose a good condenser (like the Rode NT1a) and a nice mic pre-amp, you might be able to get the store to throw in some mic stands when you barter the price.
after that i would get the midi keyboard
after that i would replace those Behringer mics with Shure or Sennheiser dynamics
(last 3 are pretty interchangeable in order)
this is just my opinion, if you want a lot more opinions from other home studio owners and professional audio engineers post in the forums here
