Hi everybody, great forum btw.

I need some advice about what I should do to make my music sound better and commercial, I know that is what everybody is looking for so I'm gonna be more specific.

I have been working on a song for months where all the sounds are from softwares like Quantum Leap's Colossus, Stylus RMX, Hypersonic e.t.c. and arranged in Cubase SX.

I think that it sounds really good for being produced and mixed in a home studio but I also believe that it could sound much better and "commercial".

I've been researching to find out if I should invest money in buying a dsp card ,like uad 2 or powercore, in order to be able to use better mixing plugins or invest the money to buy a better sound card, like RME fireface or one of MOTU's cards since I'm using a $200 sound card right now, the Delta 1010LT.

I have to say that I'm now using Waves plugins wich also are really high quality plugins but I just can't get it to sound as good as my reference songs.

I really appreciate any help.

Thanks
