Hardware Suggestions
There are many other fine products out their that may very well be better than these, but I can vouch for the dependability of these items based on my years of experience using them.
Audio Interfaces:
best bang for the buck = Focusrite interfaces
I suggest getting
best professional, "future proof" = Metric Halo interfaces
Portable Audio Recorders:
best bang for the buck = Zoom H series audio recorders
as of 2019: stick with series numbers 2 and above (H2n, H4n, H5, H6); the H1 is not good
professional, still affordable, hardware limiters, and blows Zoom recorders out of the water = Sound Devices MixPre series
Microphones:
for use in live situations (with a PA system) = Shure SM58
solid, dependable, affordable microphones of all kinds = Røde
Microphone Stands:
solid microphone stands worth the money = König & Meyer
I especially like the $60 K&M 21070
