Get a great monitor when you build your studio computer. You will be spending hundreds of man hours in front of this piece of hardware so make sure it’s hot!

I chose two 19 inch monitors for my setup. They are split with a 8inch VGA HD15. I use one screen for my audio recording and mastering and the other for production.

Any size will do but I like the fact that I can really see my audio waves and MIDI data when editing. Nothing is more intimidating than looking at Cubase SX with all my VSTs running. Reason, Sampletank, FL Studio or Steinberg’s Wavelab 5. Damn!!

Wireless Keyboard & Mouse for an uncluttered computer recording and production environment. I chose to go with Logitech because I like their technology and design. Plus they look great in front of a killer computer monitor. Most wireless keyboards and mouse setups run on batteries and come with docking stations to charge them. You should not be buying batteries for this setup for a couple of months.

Make sure you have a USB port available so you can plug the wireless keyboard right in. The mouse and the keyboard work together using radio signals or bluetooth technology. Bluetooth provides a way to connect and exchange information between devices like personal digital assistants (PDAs), mobile phones, laptops, PCs, printers and digital cameras via a secure, low-cost, globally available short range radio frequency.
