well if your planning on using a midi controller your going to need software for sound

reason 4 is what i use and reccomend, but the new version is around $500

there are other options, but i love the reason environment

your also going to want to consider some decent reference monitors and recording capabilities... again there are tons of options for that. i personally use ProTools and absolutely love it. using reason and protools together is perfect.

here is a great site to get an idea of quality without breaking the bank

www.turntablelab.com

look through the "production tools" and when on that page look to the left... there you will see controllers, interfaces, samplers, synths, effects, mixers, studio monitors, recording capabilities, and dj equipment

if your getting into hip hop consider a turntable and a 2 channel skratch mixer

have fun!
