creation stations are real nice, I might get 1 in the future, solid support too. Your still prolly gonna need some monitors.

should i get a diffrent rack ??? or is that one good?
uhhh 900$ for hr 624 is a rip u can get 824's for that much but yeah mackie monitors are top of the line
im not wastin too much time on this lol. i will say that u can build your own pc for WAY less. and Event SP8's are better than the mackies.
To build that kind of comp it might take up to 1500 plus u gotta find compatible parts and sweetwater comps come with lots of free software and tweaked to audio production. It really depends on if you have time to build your computer and if you can trust in your own capabilitys because sweetwater comps are warranteed and they give support on them.
it does not cost $1500 to build that computer. The parts to build that same EXACT computer is under $750. and if you want to optimize your PC for audio production, this is what they do to it:

Don't fall for marketing gimmicks lmao.
and then you have to buy the software on the computer... and put it together, but yeah i overestimated
i included the software in the price :thumbup:
