[@davidnahirniak8644]

I know he says that you shouldn't record into your phone but if any of you have heard of Steve Lacy & his TED talk called Bare Maximum, I think he'd disagree with Rob. I'm not suggesting that you should by any means, I have everything that's mentioned in the video myself, but it's proof that you don't even need that much. Anybody agree?

[@avescottcash71]

David Nahirniak Steve lacy is a god!!

[@davidnahirniak8644]

Av3 completely agree 😂

[@davidnahirniak8644]

NEARMUSICBEATS that's a good beat man! Not gonna lie I was expecting you to come out rapping on it but I used it as a freestyle beat anyways! Nice job

[@begins1313]

From experience, the phone recording is only going to help if you can bring it into a DAW and mix/master it. I've done clear recordings on a phone but a microphone with a larger frequency pick up range will amplify the vocals more. Build the studio he's talking about if you're trying to be cheap.

[@vortext.v482]

I got a 80$ mic. 20$stand. 500$laptop. 200$desk. 250$ monitor. 100$ KRK headphones. 100$ focusrite solo gen 3 and I got ableton live lite with it... right now Im working on getting a tower computer, i7 quad core with 16 gig ram and I think it said I can upgrade to 32 if I need to, also bout to get speakers on stands for 150$ and a mini lab midi keyboard for 100$... I slowed down hella on working on my lyricism so I can focus on my beat production, still working on it, kinda hard being limited to 8 tracks till I can get standard or suite for ableton, but that’s 500-800$ so that’s a while away. My main focus rn is audio mixing and recording. But I live rn in a rental house so I can’t really pin things on The wall and it’s a bunch of wood Floors so it’s hard to find a way to find a way to keep acoustic treatment good.

[@lowk-ip8en]

Are you gonna do the video where you compare cheaper mics to more expensive ones

[@keepsteddy]

@CLEANMUD VIDEOS channel does tons of mic comparisons by rapping on them. @Podcastage channel tests mics as well, but doesn't rap on them.

[@GTAB89]

Rob, I want to thank you for all the knowledge you share with us. I bought your "How to find your Rap voice trilogy" program and it's 100%. & once I've saved up, next on the list is buying the Home Studio equipment you recommended. Much Love.

[@jmadz9054]

Just rap bro you dont need all that lol

[@kreditomegaX]

Thank you. I used to have the whole set up years ago with the sound card, port plug in, mixer etc. This makes it so easy to start back up again just to lay vocals over some instrumentals with some software like adobe audition. I just ordered a whole mic set up and some studio headphones from amazon like $100 I already have a mac book to record on prob gonna switch to pc when it's time to take it up a notch for music and video editing. I'll upgrade as needed. Great advice!

I got all these things in my home !!! I was thinking like “damn ı don’t even have a real mic to consider my stuff as a “home studio” but usb mic works too

[@theerealatm]

Pawn shops will be your best friend if you're starting and don't wanna dive into your shallow pockets. I found an audio interface and a AT2035 microphone for just under 200. They had headphones, sound monitors, amps, mini keyboards (for the beatmaker in you), EVERYTHING. Just shop around and call to see what type of merchandise they mainly carry. Some pawns mainly have guns and jewelry and others have all sorts of shit. You can even get a damn computer from there too. The only thing I'd get brand new, if you just HAVE to have it new, is the mic.

[@DPaSStudios]

Wouldn’t it be better to save up for basic recording equipment and keeping your songs till then so they sound good as opposed to recording with shitty quality?

[@theerealatm]

I honestly think all mics need a pop filter included. If you cannot get one and need one ASAP... Use some socks. I get three clean socks and test with one and keep adding. I never do more than three but you can test what works. It works great and you already have em, I'd assume. Great info. I'ma need them blankets.

[@agabamelvin6970]

Thank you mn you are a hero

[@PutYoRhymeOn]

I got a $800 laptop, a $100 ish mic and FL Studio. That's it. For a decade, I have been literally penciling in every single note for all my songs (with the mouse) since I don't have a MIDI keyboard and didn't bother to save up for one either lol.

Seems like solid advice. But who's seriously learning what frolic means for the first time? You gotta teach them real vocabulary words like hegemony.

[@akekestory493]

You got a subscriber cause you seem wise

[@SenpaiTheExplorer]

if you can't afford a pop filter, socks are a decent alternative until your able to afford or make one. use 2 to 5 socks depending on your mic. also make sure they are clean. xD
