Well, a pair of Event or KRK studio-monitors should do the trick
And a good DAW, as well as Guitar Rig 3 or a similar program if your amp doesn't have a line-out for recording

Save money on the DAW and get Reaper - then put the extra money towards better monitors - audiopaal mentioned a couple of great options.
Also, if you want to make backing tracks you will need some money for VSTs - at the least you will want something fro Drums, like EZ Drummer, and probably a Bass VST like broomstick bass or Trilogy. -------------------- Check out my Instructor profile

I have that same M-Audio interface, I think you'll be very happy with it.

I would also get some good headphones, I prefer recording with my Shure in ear monitors and only mix on regular monitors.

You need good monitors, a good set of headphones, and MIDI keyboard controller maybe.
