What you need is something that u cannot buy -
experience is the key - you can have all the gear in the world and still make tunes that sound like arse. Dont go spending a shed load of money on top range equipement until you know whats going on. I spent 18 months slaving away on Buzz tracker and various other PC programs learing the dynamics of sounds, and what effects compression / filters etc have. But if you must purchase some hardware I'd suggest a sampler first. I picked up an EMU5000ultra for about �899 a while back. Although I know the Yamaha A3000 are also top machines and the effects at the prest level are a bonus over the EMU. You can prob pick a second hand one up for around �500 maybe less. Compressor is the cheapest most essential piece of equipment IMO after the sampler. They really bring things to life and I think that it will give the "professional sound" that you are looking for. After that u may want a small desk, then maybe a synth or other FX unit. Hope this helps. ez Sol (www.nwdnb.co.uk) (www.sophonic.com) IMPORTANT NOTICE: This email is confidential, may be legally privileged, and is for the intended recipient only.
