Kind of looking for the next step above that. I'm talking computer programs, etc. My budget would be around $1000.

Buy a PreSonus audio interface that comes packaged with Studio1/2 or whatever number they are on. American Musical has this for $250:

Upgrade the Studio One Artist (the free version) to Producer ($100) or Professional ($300)
Then get you a couple of nice condenser mics for recording vocals/acoustics. MXL makes some really good microphones for really cheap. ($100)

A pair of Sony 7506 headphones for recording and monitoring ($100).
An external hard drive to store your stuff ($150)
So that's a pretty nice recording setup for around $700-900 depending on which Studio One version you upgrade to. That still leaves you cash leftover for ancillary items like mic cables, mic stand, etc.
