Logics Pro X or Studio One?

Thanks for the advice guys. Spent the day getting everything set up. Just need some monitors and we're good to go :thu:

Looks too neat and tidy...

The PreSonus interface is solid...if you're on a tight budget look at a pair of Kali LP-6 monitors, you can get a pair for 300.00 and they are getting stellar reviews all over the place...

Going for a pint with my dad in a bit. There's a good chance these and probably some other stuff I don't really need will be ordered later tonight.
 
Also, the "I have to get a Mac because they're so much better than the alternative!" gap was eliminated years ago, with regards to computing power. There's no need for a dedicated "recording" computer, and pretty much anything made in the last 7 or 8 years will work just fine. When I'm on the road, I bring an old (at least 6 years old) Dell laptop for recording. It runs like a champ.
 
Can't remember anyone courting your opinion on it but Macs smoke anything less than comparable £££ laptops for DJing and it's a tax wrote off so...

Anyways that's the monitors in place, didn't realise they'd be so big. I'll be able to start laying some stuff down tomorrow :thu:

Nice...

The volume of air inside the cabinets gives them extended low-end response and helps add clarity...the front-firing ports help in room like your where the speakers are hard against a wall...don't look for chest-thumping low end out of them, they don't have that...start planning on adding a subwoofer somewhere down the line, though...

This room, god willing and all, will be a kids room in the next few years so not going to get carried away sinking money into it. Got friends coming over tonight and will be staying in the room so it's currently out of bounds / filled with an inflatable bed. I'll get round to starting up on Monday.
 
Had a play around yesterday and everything is set up and ready to go.

I'm being kicked out to the pub this afternoon so Mrs JBJ and and her mum can watch a movie but I'm going to get stuck right in when I get home. :headbang:

Ooh that sounds very cool. I've got Superior Drummer 2 and a (nearly 20 year old!!!) set of roland v drums that can run midi but for messing about / not pissing off the mad old lady next door that would be handy.

You can always just grooves from the library included with SD or use the piano midi editor.
