Since I am looking to get into this as a hobby at the moment I'm thinking I might get an Akai MPK Mini off Amazon for $81. Which leaves monitors, any recommendations for a good starter set?

not allowed to say any names yet but 2 different artists that you know about are getting some of my beats played for them by a&r tomorrow

also I dropped biz cards on Meech and Juice both seperately from Flatbush Zombies last week at a private invite only A$AP Rocky show in Brooklyn - I got trapped in a hallway with them for a second and I was like "Yo I make beats" and Meech was all cool and was like "ok word"

I will provide an update as it becomes legal to discuss

That he should grow greens instead of crushing on MCs

Alright anyone wanna rip apart my mashup/remix of some 90s beats? This is my first creation with Virtual DJ and the transitions aren't great but any suggestions are helpful. I realize it's not really original but it's a starting point that I felt comfortable with without getting in over my head.

Point taken, as I stated I wouldn't call it really unique just experimenting merging samples together.

Here is a working version for a track I'm developing for my brother. Still needs formatting/mastering but I like where it is going. Any feedback will not be appreciated and probably will result in a scoff from my end.

I'm about to purchase a sound card for my new setup and was wondering if y'all had any suggestions. Just need a solid one that can record with minimal latency issues. Also about to purchase a new preamp / mic setup in the near future so any input is appreciated. Here is the sound card I'm currently looking at :

for $99 bucks that thing looks nice -

for 200-250 you could get something with built in pre-amps, its gonna cost you about $100 to get a preamp probably anyhow, but you can get it incrementally, and spread the cost out. you're gonna have a better preamp if you buy it seperately anyhow.

get the little presonus blue one with the pre/compressor combo and yyou will be happy

i love the soundcard I have but it was like $500 and I don't use a lot of what it can do, but its great
