  1. Greetings,

    I see this question posted all the time.

    First, it really depends on what you wish to do.  If, for example, only you and your friends will ever hear the recording, then a cheap USB microphone and some free recording software is all that you need.  You can make some great stuff that will impress your family and friends.

    If, on the other hand, your goal is to go professional then I would suggest going to a real recording studio.  See, recording is an art.  It wasn't until sometime after my 75 album that I felt I had things pretty much under control.  It takes years of full time dedication and study to be able to make a proper recording, even for hip hop.  

    It is also cheaper  to go to a recording studio.  I don't care what anyone on yahoo says, you can't build anything worth using for less than 15k.  That will barely get you something able to produce a product that people wont laugh about.  If you plan on working with the public then just go ahead and bump up your budget to about 100k.  That is about the minimum you'll need to do a studio that can do hip hop and work with the public.

    I would suggest that you clearly post your objectives and your budget and then we'll be better equipped to answer your question.

    Good luck
