yup - pc to amp...
stay away from fruity tho, cant see anyone getting to far with that...not making techno anywayz...get cubase sx and maybe just use fruity to make simple percussive loops...

kewl i wont have to fork out for a mixer then just now
ive actually been getting some good results from Fruity, ive only been using it about 7 months but getting the hang of it and its ideal for starting out on. i did have SX but it was a poor cracked version, so not been able to use it.
im getting Spirit Absolute two's monitors and Sampson servo 170 amp

well - samson servo and absolute is a really good choice for you man...
jimfish - i personally hate fruity apart from making loops but if you're just getting started it's a god send. i recommend it if you need a quick fix way to get into music production... just remember, you're gonna have to go further 6 months down the line though... you can't release music just by using fruity...

I agree and disagree with mark on this one! Ive been using fruity for years now and if you really know what you are doin with it, you can get some craking results! I even know people who have releases by usin fruity! But its weakneses start showin when it comes to mastering, and you need to start using other programs! At the end of the day its gonna be personal prefferance that choses what u use, and fruity is great for startin out on, but to get great sound quality out of it its gonna take a good few years before you get anywhere with it!
My advice- Chose a program, and learn it inside out, then move on to another one, dont try and learn everything at once!!! It will take a good few years, but in the end its worth it!!!!

even tho im an avid fan of fruity, i do understand that im gonna ave to move onto more advanced/better quality programs and techniques. when i aqcuire my amp n speakers, its the first step in building my bedroom studio, i know its gonna b years b4 im doing stuff thats professional enough for release, but i also have faith that im gonna do it as its a personal goal of mine
this board really is the dog's bollocks, ****in perfect for people like myself just starting out
