What would i need and what would it cost?

Q. Today i was on Facebook and noticed one of my friends is starting to build her own home studio, she just recently started recording her own songs with her guitar teacher and sells them on itunes and so far she bought 600$+ worth of music stuff and it really shows me that if you try you can succeed. Saying that i was wondering how much would it cost to get the basic recording stuff. If i ever did this it would probably be just instrumental, and what would i need?

A. If you want to sound truly professional, here is what you need. It's not that expensive ...

1 - Recording software and broadcast quality computer interface -

2 - Studio quality headphones - http://www.guitarcenter.com/Audio-Technica-ATH-M40fs-Precision-Studiophones-100265885-i1126646.gc

4 - Microphone stand - http://www.guitarcenter.com/DR-Pro-Tripod-Mic-Boom-Stand-101810125-i1170322.gc

5 - Microphone cable - http://www.guitarcenter.com/Monster-Cable-Performer-500-Microphone-Cable-102792009-i1128678.gc

That's all you need to get started. You may also need a good CD burner (software) but, it's not required. Another extra that I highly recommend which will make you sound a lot more professional when you sing, is the BOSS VE-20 Vocal Performer. http://www.guitarcenter.com/Boss-VE-20-Vocal-Effects-Processor-105654529-i1474806.gc

Eventually you may want a high quality studio monitor but for now you can use the headphones.

You will want to learn about Tunecore and Disc Makers and CD Baby web sites and you should probably join the International Songwriter's Association.
