Hey GMC'ers. I need some advice from all you studio-pros out there. I'm looking to start a basic home studio in my room (no dedicated room with acoustics etc.). I was going to get a Focusrite Saffire 6, to run my guitar/bass/monitors from. I was then going to have to get a VST such as guitar rig. This was already going to be pretty expensive for my budget.
Today I found out about the Digitech GSP1101 . What if I just used this as my studio center-piece? I could run my Mackie MR-5's out of it, as well as my DAW, right? Could I plug in my keyboard into the GSP1101 input even? Any advice is appreciated, I'm pretty new to studio stuff as you can tell.

I would recommend sound card instead of guitar processor. The thing with sound card is that it has ability to record vocals, run MIDI, and has better mixer capabilities.
One thing I've found important with front end of your studio is that you need to have a good patching app. E-MU cards have great Patch application that can enable you to patch your audio anyway you like. At some point you will find that you cannot patch your audio streams with digitech, you cannot plugin MIDI controllers, and you cannot record good vocals. I would advise digitech, but it's way to expensive for that purpose. Try some E-MU card (skip M-Audio because of poor software), and go to software modellers. They are very good, and you can always reamp your tone. -------------------- - Ivan's Video Chat Lesson Notes HERE

Congrats man! That is indeed wise choice, Focusrite and that software combo is definitely something that will enable you to get some really great tones.
If you need any additional help with those, let us know! -------------------- - Ivan's Video Chat Lesson Notes HERE
