Ladies and gentlemen, prepare for the worst studio ever posted on TalkBass...

Yes, it's my bedroom ;) Yes, it sucks, yes, I don't have any fancy mixers, but it's portable and it works for demos. FL Studio is my DAW of choice. I don't need a huge or even a good setup, because there is a professional studio quite literally two minutes walk away from my house where me and the band go to record.
 
We love it. No problems so far whatsoever. Good sounding, if a bit noisy at high gain levels, pres, and no driver issues. Taken everything I've thrown at it very well so far. I'd say do it.

Thanks for your reply! Sounds good. You are using Vista? 32 or 64 bit?

Here's my modest setup, desperately needing room treatment and decent monitors:

Don't know that I can really call it a "studio", just my little corner of the house.

I can plug up headphones and record through my little fast track into the Ableton Live software on my HP laptop (I've yet to be able to get my Protools M-Powered to work properly). Only using the mic (sm57) for guitar. I'm running bass into the VT bass pedal and then right into the interface.

Computer: Macbook- Snow leopard 2Gb ram 2.4gHz
Software: Protools L.E 8 , Garageband.
Hardware: Mbox 2 Factory ( with all the plugins).
Monitoring: Audio Technica ATH M50 Headphones.

This is what i have currently been using to record Bass, Electric Guitar, Dobro and Harmonica.

I will be buying Logic Pro 9, a Condenser Microphone and an SM57, a MIDI controller and maybe a second audio interface ( Apogee one or duet most likely) to add to my setup, but on a student budget...this will take time.

Pic is from a couple of years ago, was set up for guitar back then. Changes since then include adding a pair of M-Audio monitors, Rh450 + Rs210 + Rs212, a patchbay, a vocal processor, and a line mixer. Those guitar pedals are now in a pile off to the side and have been replaced with a VT Bass and a Bass Pod. Have also added a laptop so I can go mobile with some of the software I use.
