Hi all, just putting my first studio together after years of working with just software.
I have to get some monitors and an audio interface, I pretty much had my mind set on the rockit 5's plus the focusrite audio interface which is bundled at around £300. I have heard that the rockit 6 are much@ better but thinking about it, I don't actually want them too loud for noise purposes and I also have a kam amp and speakers package which I can use if I want to hear my music loud. The fact the rokit 5's are the only model bundled with an interface is a major factor in my choice as well.
I have just bought a music prodution desk of eBay which was a price too good to turn down and will have room for a midi keyboard, korg volca (all 3) and a surface controller(if I decide to get one) it has a few rack spaces, 18 and 4's. I was looking on eBay for some interfaces and saw a good deal for used rack mounted units, just wondered if they are generally better than ones such as the focusrite 212. One I'm looking at is the terratec 88 do I even need it if I'm not playing music too loud or does it help with sound quality?
