I think I’m getting closer to “narrowin’ it all down”— but I need to put my lack of knowledge back on full display, and toss in a couple more dumb questions – (please excuse me🙃- I’m just— still— in the “finding-out” part of my mini-studio project).
So……. in some bundles I see speakers- (“monitors”? is the term).
Do I need these? – (some/ most bundles don’t have them- and they are also sold separately).
What do they do?
Do they serve the same purpose as headphones– but out in the “open air?”– (to let you HEAR what you are singing- ***as you are singing it***—- so you can adjust your voice on the fly?). I know that’s a goofy-sounding sentence- but I hope you get my drift.
I think I’ve seen them onstage- (facing the singer), but never could figure out why.
If headphones and the monitors serve the same purpose- which is better– and why?
Is using headphones-(only)- just quieter?
Lastly- Can anyone give a SIMPLE explanation of these things like Garageband, Audacity, etc……. What are they? What do they do? Do I ***need*** them? Is this a monthly/yearly “subscription thing? Are they hard to “set up”?
Again– sorry about more questions. I just need easy to understand help and advice- I want to do his “right”.
Private messages work also…..
Thanks-
