I pretty much agree everything you said. Buy once cry once. You will save a lot of money if build a PC instead of Mac, but Mac does have some extra options. If you must blow the budget let it be for the preamp and microphone. Everything else you can cut some corners on but even then do not go bottom of the barrel. That RME is indeed something special. I won't use anything else.
2nd hand 400$ mac mini m1 blow every PC below 1500 dollar, tho you need to buy internal SSD mvme with adapter for full speed external storage indeed Also for best results for cheap interface : Audient, they got console preamps in all their interface and they got really cheap ones Mic : AT2020, LCT240, Air140, NT1, Studio budget B1, copycat Branded Sm7b, or Sm58 Headphones : 40 dollars studio headphones audio technica MICSTAND !!! K&M 50$ Daw : Garage band for free since you have a mac Speakers : Presonus Eris
I'm not so sure about the Mac mini part because the gulf between Macs and Pcs in this era is nill when it comes to performance not to mention Apple is a closed system so whatever you get is all you get out that machine and Apple is notorious for planned obsolescence. Where they do shine is some manufacturers in the music industry make apple only products. Many high-end studios use PCs these days. Audient from what I hear makes so decent products, although I do not have first hand experience with them. I would personally would not trust my mix on $40 headphones nor the presonus Eris either. Like most things you do get what you pay for, but to each his own as every man has to ride his own horse.
for pro tools artist you are limited on tracks for 32 tracks and studio one for artist i dont think so i always had stems with between 50-300 tracks so i dont think you are limited in tracks for studio one
The Scarlett 4i4 (3rd Gen at least) has big problems. There’s a massive in-rush current when turning it on that fries the USB controller over time. Mine only lasted for 4 years. I’ve found dozens, if not hundreds of people online who’ve had the same issue, some within a day of using it. Not worth it. For that price range, go for the SSL2 or SSL2+ (MK I OR MK II). That’s what I did, it’s actually cheaper and sounds WAY better. Focusrite has forever lost me as a customer. They know this issue exists, but if it happens after the 3 year mark you’re SoL.
Glad you said”Studio One 6” It’s very underrated
Bruh that WA 800 shot killed me 😂 love the energy bro!
get your hands on the se2200 mic and the fluid audio sri 2 trust me a game changer.
Do you mean put them Together is way better than buying the Scarlet 4th Gen and the Sony Together?

Good advice.

@@waynewav appreciate you bro! What are your thoughts on the UAD 610 ? 👀
Top notch, love your content mate! Keep this coming!
Reaper is a very good daw and budget friendly. I think is the best value overall
you should add to interface the sri 2 better then the scarlett and from fluid audio for the same price
Great video and breakdown Wavy that RME Fireface is a must-have for the future
Sound absorption sheets are effective from what I have seen
perpetual license for pro tools still available?
Yes
You can find it on my store wavyproaudio.com

Quick question, would the Focurite ISA Two be a good purchase in 2024 to add the my mbox studio? I see you still have your 428 still in your rack.
UAD Luna is top tier
Never let anyone grab that 1/4" lol 😂😂🙏🙏
What PC Laptop do you would recommend? - - - I'd use Pro Tools
