Thinking of upgrading my setup, what can I get?
I currently have a flkey 61 mk2 along with my laptop, for producing, and I use my truthhear Hexas for monitoring. I decided that I might as well get more gear, though I'm pretty satisfied with what I have now as I'm still new and it's just a hobby. I'm thinking of getting the akai professional Mini plus 37-key. I mainly want it so that I can have something to use on my desk without having to constantly pivot to my 61 key to simply test out a sound/synth. Speaking about synths, that's the second reason why I want it, the semi weighted keys of the 61 feel great and I do like them, but I feel like the synth action keys of the smaller midi controllers will be better for synth chords or simply experimenting with melodies, and ideas, it'll also just be nice to be able to play two different sounds at the same time and have a extra pair of knobs and pads. I'm also thinking of getting the sony MDR7506 for listening to my music while I'm producing, I've heard it's good for producing, and mixing and it's pretty budget friendly as well; It'll also fix the slight problem of my Hexas cord just being a little too short for me to comfortably use my 61 key without positioning myself and my laptop kinda weirdly. What are your thoughts on it? is it a good headphone for producing, or should I look at something else at a similar price?
My decision to buy those two aren't set in stone though. What other gear could I buy instead, I'm not looking for recommendations per se, but I just want to know what other types of equipment producers might use that I should be aware of. Thx for reading.
