Five Studio Bundles to kickstart your music making

Five Studio Bundles to kickstart your music making

If you are looking to start a home music studio you may want to have a look at some of the studio bundles that leading brands offer.

Whether you’re just looking for the basics to get into music production and recording, or whether you’re looking at kitting out your home studio with a full setup – finding the right options can be tricky. Studio bundles that suit your needs can save you time and money.

Let’s investigate some of the studio bundles on offers currently…

Hybrid Studio Bundle

What is it:

The Hybrid Studio bundle includes all the core items you would need to set up a small home-studio. If you’re looking at doing vocal recordings – you may want to look into a more reputable microphone, however this is a great affordable solution.

Feature(s):

  • Hybrid Opal 22 Interface
  • Hybrid C1 Microphone
  • Hybrid HF5 Monitors
  • A Microphone stand which includes microphone isolation shield
  • Behringer HPM1000 Headphones

Price:

TBA, my guess is around R5000 retail

Where to get

PreSonus AudioBox 96 Studio

What is it:

The PreSonus AudioBox 96 Studio bundle is a great value-for-money bundle for those getting into recording and music production, it includes PreSonus’ award-winning DAW Studio One artist, which is a great added bonus. The interface is USB bus-powered which also makes this a great portable solution for music creating.

Feature(s):

  • PreSonus AudioBox 96 Interface
  • PreSonus M7 Microphone
  • PreSonus HD7 Headphones
  • PreSonus Studio One Artist DAW
  • All necessary cables

Price:

R3990

Where to get

Behringer Studio Combo

What is it:

This Behringer Studio Combo steps up the game a bit by adding in a pair of studio monitors for referencing your tracks and recordings. They’re not the best monitors in the game, but they’re a great option for editing and simple referencing, if you’re looking at producing bass heavy music – maybe go for a bundle and a separate pair of bigger monitors.

Feature(s):

  • Behringer B2 Pro Microphone
  • Behringer UMC204HD Interface
  • Behringer MS20 Monitors
  • Behringer HPM1000 Headphones

Price:

R6799

Where to get

M-Audio Studio-In-A-Box

What is it:

For those who are looking at a bundle that includes a MIDI controller, the M-Audio Studio-In-A-Box is the perfect solution. This pack comes bundled with over R10000 of software to get you started right out of the box.

Feature(s):

  • M- Audio AV42 Monitors
  • M-Audio Nova White Microphone
  • M-Audio Keystation 49 ii
  • M- Audio M-track MKii Interface

Price:

R7199

Where to get

PreSonus Power Pack

What is it:

This is the all-in-one solution, including literally everything you need down to the software, cables and stands. The core of the bundle includes the PreSonus Eris E3.5 monitors, an interface, microphone, headphones, a MIDI controller and a fully-fledged DAW.

Feature(s):

  • Presonus Eris E3.5 Studio Monitors
  • PreSonus AudioBox 96 Interface
  • PreSonus M7 Microphone
  • PreSonus HD7 Headphones
  • PreSonus Studio One Artist DAW
  • Acorn Masterkey 49 Key USB Keyboard
  • All necessary cables
  • Desktop Microphone Stand

Price:

R7450Β 

Where to get

Which option suits you best?

Are you looking for something to get you producing while you save up for a professional pair of monitors?

In that case I would take the PreSonus Audiobox 96 Studio, and then add in a pair of monitors at a later stage.

If you’re looking to get everything together at once, depending on your budget, any of the other studio bundles should suit one’s needs.
