I'm in process of putting together a home recording setup. Need some oversight by you guys.
Goal is to record electric and/or acoustic music to a very high level of quality. Have many super talented musician friends that want to participate in creating quality music. Have friends already recording "experienced" but want to have the convenience of having everything in-house here. Already planning on file sharing with tracks being added as an iterative process.
In process of building a high powered scratch built PC - Intel Quad core Q9550 and all the good stuff in mobo, memory, drives, Firewire, etc., targeting an RME 800 Fireface, acquiring Cakewalk SONAR 8 Producer, have a Mackie CR1604VLZ, have SM57's, have a AKG C414, have a EV ND468, acquiring a Rode NT1a, have loads of high end audio systems but looking at getting Adam Audio A7 monitors for the studio.
Any thoughts on potential mis-steps here?? or additions that need to be made??
