question for musicians
 

at this point I'm woodshedding my chops and writing a few songs, I would like to be able to record this with a drum machine, just for writing purposes. what tools do I need? which 'device' can I buy, like to record to a hard drive. have bass, mics, drum machine and that stuff... I use PC, not looking for a recording studio capabilities so mush as a simple method to document my work. thanks in advance guys. :winkwink:

You could use a Native Instruments Maschine and a good Audio Interface.

Or you could just use a good Audio Interface by itself and add Ableton Live.

Best place to learn is gearslutz.com

thanks..

I need consumer stuff.... like this

wont this mix for me and allow me to use head phones and then take this digital with an adapter?

Are you on a Mac? If so, check out Garage Band - its included with O/XS. Or if you want something really heavy duty, check out Logic Pro X. Both are really powerful, let you record to HD, etc.

Contact ribbet

You can use something like that and use Garageband/Logic Pro/Ableton Live etc

But don't buy a Native Instruments Audio Interface, better buying Focusrite
