Graphic Design and Vocals Recording

[Austin.Apollo]

I just got a new computer so the only software I have is Audacity for recording vocals I download free beats online and just kind of try to make up lyrics which Im terrible at but I really love music more than anything in the whole wide world so I try anyways. I also used to enjoy graphic design using adobe photoshop which I dont have at the moment but hopefully will be downloading soon. Can anyone tell me what all I need to get started in music production just like a bedroom studio set up nothing fancy the software and equipment. thanks.

For Graphic Design, if you want to use freeware, GIMP is amazing for what it is.

I'm a semi-professional musician and it all depends on what you want to do. People who do electronic music can get away with nothing but software, and a monitoring headset. However if you're planning in recording vocals, my best advice is to invest in a recording interface, such as Focusrite's Scarlet Solo, which can also come in a pack with a good quality microphone, a cable and even a decent monitoring headset. You'd need to add a mic stand, a suspension for the microphone, and a pop filter, which aren't too expensive on their own. You should also consider some acoustic treatment foam if your designated recording room is too echo-y.

for electronic you can use a tracker where you build your muss with samples i have played around with a tracker i made one i named spiderbite it came out fairly cool

I like electronic music but I'm wanting to make music similar to twenty one pilots if that gives you anything to go on
