I wasn't going to get an MIDI controller anyway, and I really do have no studio experience, I just thought it'd be something to do for fun, and share with people.

The Mackie CR3 Monitors were the ones I was looking at, I really can't judge how good or high-quality they are though, since I am a total novice on this.

As for my inspirations, I get them from Tycho, Hammock, and God Is An Astronaut.

I want to make music LIKE them, but I don't want to copy their direct sound, I think it'd be fun to experiment a bit just seeing what I could make with a guitar, drum machine, and synth, as well as mixing some completely electronic sounds on a different track.

I wanted to start making ambient/IDM music. I've got a Wildkat guitar and a Computer. In my build, which I haven't purchased yet, I have a keyboard, mixer, and DAW.

What else is required to make high-quality music?

I'm not looking for top-of-the-line professional tools, just essentials I need to make it sound good.

Thanks, in advance.
