hey there, I've lately been working on a home recording setup for jotting down my ideas, but as well with a view to being able to record a good quality demo of my band.
I've chosen the Yamaha AW16G as my main console, it has 8 inputs which can be recorded simultaneously, and have only read good things about it, I plan on getting some alesis monitors that my friend Andy (a studio engineer) recommended, most of my mics will be SHURE brand, but I plan on getting a RODE NTK if possible, to record vocals and acoustic instruments. Can anyone suggest any extras that I might need?

thanks
