9 Best Home Recording Studio Equipment Packages (2021 Review)

In this article, we’ll be discussing all of the equipment you’ll need for your home studio in 2021.

As home studio creation has become more popular, companies have woken up to this trend and have thus created home recording studio equipment packages, which are made up of all the equipment you’ll need to get started recording in your home environment.

These packages are particularly good because they combine all of the equipment that you’ll need to start, as we know that some beginners unknowingly purchase equipment that they’ll never use, it’s a blessing to have a package put together by experienced recording experts, so you can rest assured of what you’re purchasing and have everything you need.

Before we go into all of the available home recording studio packages, we think that it would be useful (especially to the beginners) to talk about what’s usually in one of these packages, and what all of the equipment does…

Ok, so here’s what you can usually expect from a typical home recording studio package:

• Studio Condenser Microphone
• Audio Interface
• XLR Lead
• Headphones

Condenser Microphone

This is a microphone that consists of a thin membrane/diaphragm in close proximity to a solid metal plate, often referred to as a condenser mic.

The membrane is made of a material that is conductive, usually Gold or in older condenser microphones it is made from tin foil.

As sound waves hit the metal diaphragm, it moves back and forth, the distance between the diaphragm and metal plate obviously changes, hence changing the capacitance…

Ultimately this changes the sound waves to electrical signals.

Due to the way in which Condenser Microphones are built, they provide a more detailed capture of an instrument’s natural frequency response.

Hence, because of this, they are more popularly used for the studio recording of vocals, guitar and other instruments such as piano, etc.

Audio Interface

An audio interface is a piece of equipment that allows users to plug in instruments (usually analog, although some come with MIDI connectivity) so that they can be recorded in the Digital Audio Workstation (I.E the program you are using to record, this can be such popular tools such as Pro Tools, Logic Pro, Ableton, etc).

Audio interfaces come in a range of different size inputs/outputs, with larger I/O interfaces being more suited to live band recordings, and small I/O interfaces are suited to an individual instrument recording on a smaller scale.

Although have no doubt, a smaller interface does not necessarily have cheaper electronics, but rather fewer electronics due to the lower number of inputs/outputs.

XLR Lead

An XLR lead is used to connect a microphone to the audio interface, to allow for recording to happen.

Make note, if you’re looking to record guitar, you could mic up the guitar’s amplifier, or you could purchase an XLR – 1/4″ Jack lead, which would allow you to DI (Direct Input) the guitar into the audio interface…

This is useful if you would prefer to edit the signal digitally as opposed to the former recording setup.

Headphones

Headphones are used to help monitor your recordings (in real-time) and listen back to entire mixes.

Firstly, as a musician is recording a take, he/she will need to know exactly when to come in, the tempo and other Q’s…

This provides through the headphones as either a Click-Track or Track of the recording so far, so instruments can be layered on top.

Additionally, once all the recording is complete, you’ll need to mix and master the song, and doing it on headphones is the best way to do this effectively.

This is because it provides clarity in comparison to playing the song through speakers…

Although make a note, before releasing a song, try to test its sound through as many speakers and headphones as possible…

After all, not everyone will be listening through studio-quality headphones.

Ok, so before we go into depth about the best home recording studio bundle, it’s important to note that we try to accommodate every visitor’s requirements, whether or not that is budget, the number of inputs/outputs, brand, connectivity, etc.

Therefore although all of the packages and studio bundles will feature most of the equipment that we’ve mentioned above, there will be slight variations.

Now that’s been sorted, let’s talk about the best home recording studio package equipment:
