You don’t have a home studio? Well, what’s stopping you?

All great points for those on a budget.

Living in Venezuela in an incredibly punishing economic situation countrywide, in 2019, I was able to find a used M-Audio Fast Track for around $20 (USB, 1 line input, 1 XLR input, 3.5 mm monitor out,); I bought a Chinese copy of a Shure mic for about $20, it was surprisingly decent to my ears. Then I must have spent around $40 on a mic stand, pop filter, cables. I already had a guitar and bass at home, as well as a few pedals and all the necessary tools to play, and after a lot of youtube tutorials and practice, I knew how to create EZDrummer midi drums and do rough mixes on Reaper (the free version). All in all, with less than $100, I was able to record good-sounding demos, not the "best", not "professional", just good enough for me and definitely better than recording with a phone.

Nowadays I have a pretty nice home studio. The thing is I started recording with an MP3 player that had AUX in and editing in Audacity on a hand me down netbook. Never let anyone tell you that you can't make music without gear. Create music, no matter what your means. If all you have is a cellphone do it on that. If all you have is an old mixer and a turntable interface do it on that. My point is get off your ass and start creating. The gear will come and go but the time you waste is never coming back.
