Needs Set Up Help

Hi my names ciaran , and im about to buy the maschine , but before i do it , i want to buy a keyboard ,sound card and the solfware to work well with the maschine.
But i dont no wats the best bang for your book gear , soif anyone can help me that would be great

 

Budget, objectives, and experience (these will help folks give you accurate advise)?

 

the most important things are your computer specs and budget for soundcard, midi keyboard

 

i dont have a budget because if i am goin to play 600 for the maschine , i want to get a good keyboard and soundcard , like i want to start makin some hiphop beats for a mate of mind, so i dont mind payin more money for a better product than payin for a cheap one and it not bein able to do what i want it to do , so if any one could give me links to good products i would be very thank full ? and o yes will the be hardware update do the maschine in the next year do people think ?

i have bein dj ond of for the last couple of years , but the sound card i had was really cheap wasnt great so i rather spend then money now than , buyin new stuff every 6 months

 

it depends on how much you can afford,

as interfaces can cost alot more then your maschine purchase,

ask yourself

how many inputs do i need?

will i be using any onboard pre's ,

have i got any outboard gear i want to wire up,

quality of AD/DA matter?

....

the list is so long, main thing is do research before you buy any product.
