reading this, for me, begs the question, do you guys think someone who is serious about production, but not all that knowledgeable or skilled should buy top of the line gear right away when theyre are just starting out, or should one buy more entry level stuff and learn the tools and basics first and eventually upgrade?
i imagine most of you would ask whether or not money is an issue, and speaking for myself, if money wasn't an issue id have all kinds of drum machines and hardware and software and even a bigger space (i can barely fit the gear i
do have now!) regardless of how talented/knowledgeable i was with production so im mainly wondering for the stance of someone who does not have loads of money to burn on gear, at least not right away.
i dont even have monitors yet
lol
anyway i ask because a lot of the time i want to just buy lower end entry level stuff to sort of teach myself the basics but i wonder to myself if i should just wait and save for something more high end and i justify it to myself as an investment in my future even though atm i may not need it or even know how to use it effectively.
answered my own question, eh?
