400 euros budget for "home studio"

getting one monitor is crazy. get a pair of used krk rokit 5s and the sm7b is a good call, depending what you’re using it for. You may rather have an sm57 or sm58 depending what you want to do €400 is not that much for this stuff so realistically you should be looking at entry level pro gear, not ov

New Monitor Speakers

Those Behringers are decent for the price but you might want to check out the KRK Rokit 5s or Yamaha HS5s instead - they're pretty much the gold standard for bedroom producers and synth setups. The KRKs especially have that low end punch you're looking for without being too muddy, and they won't bre

Budget speaker recommendations for portable jam setup

small, budget, don’t sound horrible, pick two I like my JBL Go for casual Bluetooth listening but it doesn’t have aux in. I would just find a decent Bluetooth speaker with an aux in for outside. If you’re trying to annoy the neighborhood you could get one of those portable guitar amps with a battery

New to DJing, need advice!

welcome to the wormhole this can get expensive if it escalates haha What kind of music are you looking to play (has big influence on where you get music from) Software - rekordbox is pretty standard and what most use.

What studio monitors do you recommend these days? I’m looking to buy a new pair of studio monitors

I haven't checked prices, but a used pair of KRK Rokit 5's would be an upgrade depending on the cost.

Studio monitors sound thin compared to headphones

yeah agreed bigger is almost certainly better for a more consistent frequency response. Before I bought the rokit 5s i tried some presonus eris E7 XTs, but big for my space really, but they suffered from the buzzing issue that had been frequently reported so i sent them back. Picked up the rockits f

Recommended speakers?

Yamaha HS5 or KRK RP5 are both decent entry level speakers. In general avoid speakers that have bluetooth. I've seen a few of these advertised and they are just toys. You will also need a decent audio interface. The MOTU M2 or M4 are really solid high quality units. A little cheaper would be Univers

Pioneer DJ XDJ-RX3 Standalone DJ Controller + DM-40D Speaker

i ran into this same spot last year. the rx3 is great but overkill for a first deck honestly. the XDJ-RR goes for around £1,000 and still gives you standalone rekordbox prep. another solid move is finding a used XDJ-RX2 - people upgrade and sell them all the time. for speakers the DM-40D are fine bu

What type of starter equipment do I get my limited verbal som with autism?

For the controller, I think the DDJ-FLX4 from pioneer might be a good choice. For the speakers I might say KRK ROKIT 5 G5 $500 is a good starting point. Check Facebook marketplace, or whatever they might use around you, and you can probably get a deal.

want to start producing

You’ll need a computer that’s as powerful as your budget will allow, ideally spending around $1000 for a really nice computer. After that it’s not really necessary unless you’re going legit aka professional. MacBook Airs are good enough for the job and those are 1000 bucks. Macbook pros can handle a
