Interesting post, I wish I had that kind of man cave... Maybe in a few years
I am the prime example of a ''bedroom'' producer, I don't have much gear nor musical knowledge, and it just shows in my music. That being said, I like to rearrange samples and I've been doing it for a little bit more than 5 years, so I guess that is my instrument. I never watched any kind of tutorial videos, I just like to listen to the samples I found. I only have my PC with Fruity Loops Studio (with a lot of plugins and drums sounds I collected over the years) with a turntable to link my vinyls to my PC. I find most of my samples on the internet.
I don't even have a proper sound system, because I live in a small appartment with walls made of cardboard. So I invested in a few different headphones. I do have a pretty good system in my car, so most of the time, the car ride is the better way for me to analyze my music, but it's annoying for me because I can't make the little adjustments I can hear while I'm in my car.
