How much is your bank roll?http://www.zzounds.com/item--ROLFANTOMX8This is the keyboard I use. It's about $3,000. It's got a drum machine built in to it which is nice. It's a little fancy if you are just starting out though.http://www.zzounds.com/item--BEHB1When looking for a mic, definately don't go less than $100. The sound quality is junk and it falls apart after a while.http://www.zzounds.com/item--AUTATHM40FSThese are pretty good. For headphones, you don't need to go all out, but at least throw $50 on them.http://www.zzounds.com/item--MDOMPOWEREDThen you'll need an analog mixer ^ or a computer based digital mixer (Pro Tools is good).http://www.zzounds.com/item--DGDMBOXNow all you need is a MIDI converter like an MBox (we got a cheaper one than the one above) and a computer to edit with (preferrably a Mac).So for good, crisp sound, you'll probably want to have between $3000 - $5000 to spend. If you are just looking for a hobby, you'd probably only need $1000 or $2000.
Very little in my mind, but compared to anyone here it's probably nothing. I want to learn on my own equipment, but that probably wont happen. I need someone to help me with it cuz I dont know anyone who can produce rap/hip-hop.

Well I'm gonna produce, so I'd rather buy all the good shit right off the start than spend little money and build up. I aint got much right now, cuz Im getting laid off from my job in 3 weeks. It was only a summer thing. So I guess I need to make some quick cash... lol
Go to Tom Lee music on Granville. The top floor (4th floor), is all mics, keyboards, samplers ect. You can try everything out and play around with them. Just talk to one of the guys that work there.
