U can do alot more with alot less,
One of the best producers on here (afrique delux) just has a MIDI keyboard and reason,
Another top producer on here, producer_gyal (the winner of the battle that competition) just uses FL studio.
What im sayin is that the equiment dosent really matter, if u have a sequncer(hardware or software) ,a way to chop samples(or play the keys) and a way to record ur good to go.
They key is to know how to use what u have.....
That equiment he was talkin about was professinal engineers, its cool and i would love to have it someday. but i think for now u would be straight with FL, a MIDI controller and a decent pair of speakers
class...
