Personal Comment:
Home Recording Studio gear is a personal thing but certain bits of kit will always be a "must-have" and this website touches on some of the equipment I have come to use in my own recording work.​
Having run a production studio for commercial, broadcast and cinema production I have used many high-end feature-set software packages, but when it came to my return to playing and recording music, I wanted something simple, yet professional. Reaper for me fits that spot perfectly as it has a very clean and intuitive layout, it's well capable in respect of dealing with complex music productions and it is continually being updated. While you can download a free copy with certain limitations, frankly the cost of the licensed product is as far as I am concerned... excellent.
Talking about studio gear is a limited conversation and so click on the video link above to view and hear the equipment and specifications. If you want to know more about this product drop me an email.
