Anyways, it really depends what instruments you want to use and how you want to record. If you want multiple instruments at the same time you need to get a computer interface and also recording software (though most interfaces come with LE versions of software) and a mixer. As a beginner, I highly recommend Sonar Home Studio 4 made by Cakewalk. It's about 99 dollars and has all the software you'll need as a beginner. As for an interface, You can get a pretty good interface for about 150-200 dollars at sweetwater.com . As for the mixer, You can get a cheap one for around 75 dollars. If you plan on doing a lot of mixing and putting the instruments together through software, you can just stay with a simple interface and use the settings in the software for mixing after recording. You will, of course, also need microphones (multiple depending on what you plan on using them for) and cables. So to sum this all up, it's gonna be a little hard to help your boyfriend start one up with a small amount of money.<br><b>References : </b><br> It’s very pricey (I have one myself and have been going strong for a little over 3 years).
