Title: Amps, monitors, PA speakers
Post by: Knight on May 24, 2017, 09:21:49 AM
Trying to learn different things to do with my Taylor.
So once I learn enough to write, note, and strum the guitar.

In my mind I did the next logical step and purchased a Fishman loudbox performer amp. and Sinnheiser 935 microphone.

Now I want to learn how to record to CD. So what I am understanding at this time is the current amp is of no use,  and that I need to buy 2 good monitors like the KRK  Rokit 5 G3. From what I understand these are only good for mixing, recording. Not listening to music.

Or instead I could buy openback headphones for mixing and closeback headphones for recording, instead of monitors

So now should I wish to entertain a small group and just want  to amplify my voice  while I play guitar naturally I will still need  a PA to get decent voice reproduction
I had thought a Roland mobile cube would work but now from what I've searched I may need a Fishman Solo amp.
What about Samson XP 106ww PA
