So now im at the point where im changing my mind literaly every hour as to what i could best do with my 2000 euro's. to get the best sounding mixes i can possibly get at this point. Ive even thought of buying the KRK ergo room correction. heck every few hours im even deciding to just buy a good pair of headphones to mix in and use some less monitors to A/B with.
spending days on fora like these, i know them all like the back of my hand, and it only makes the choice harder lol (*cry* actualy)
get drunk or something (but stay away from the internet when you are, or you might end up with something you bought too soon )
look, studio's don't get build in one or two years.
I've been building my studio and refining my setup for over 10 years now.
I'm still not there 100%.
But I am more relaxed when it comes to buying gear, cause I know a lot better know what I want/need than I did say 5 years ago.
But even then I still stress a little tiny bit, it's normal.
Don't spend too much time on fora.
I've spent years and years on fora.
I think I made about 5000 or more posts up on vintagesynth a few years ago, (before they renewed the forum at 2004 and my whole post count got lost, oh irony ).
it doesn't make you a better musician.
just use fora to look for some quick advice and user reviews on gear that you're interested in, but otherwise the time you spend on some forum is almost always better spent making music.
90% of the people on fora are newbies or semi-newbies that reproduce an opinion they read somewhere else.
(and I don't mean this to be an arrogant prick, everyone was a newbie one day, it's just that it's normal that the more experience you have, the less you're gonna be on some forum)
Best way to get the most out of fora is to search for a few people that have enough mileage so they can talk about personal experience.
At least then you know you can pretty much trust their advice or judgement.
But even then you can still take anything anyone says on any fora with a Dead Sea of salt .
they're all just opinions, and all you gotta do is make up your own mind,
not have someone else make up your mind for you.
and relax : with 2000, you're gonna get fine monitors.
it's if you only have 1000 or less to spend that you really gotta be worried.
