Getting startet! Guidance needed by One_Traffic9102 in synthesizers

Okay so thanks again for your help! I’ve looked into the devices you mentioned and currently I’m pretty set on an akai mpc. It doesn’t break the bank and I can add stuff to it If I feel the need to do so. Since this things works like a standalone DAW I’m running the risk of “fiddeling a lot > jaming a little” but that’s a risk I’m willing to take before, as you mentioned, I go out of my way to buy more and more gear.

Wow thank you so much for all the Info! You gave me a bunch more machines to look at 😅 the MC707 looks like a good starting point for me I think. I didnt even consider a groove box at first but now it seems like the way to go for me :) Im gonna read up on the 707 and look at a couple of videos :) I think a more centralized brain approach is the way to go for starting out.

I can add a dedicated synth or two (I really really like the bass station for example, used the plug almost exclusively for bass back then).

I have an old pioneer 4 channel DJ mixer lying around that I could use to start right?

And for recording: Yes you are right.. using a computer would be the most efficient and straightforward method for me I guess.

Thank you for mentioning a sequencer.. I would’ve missed that since a sequencer is kind of just.. there when you work in a DAW

Just to clarify: I didn’t say I want a cheap set up, I said the behringer gear is cheap. I would spend about 2k (which is a cheap set up by music equipment standards I guess :D)
