Okay so I have 120$ and I know I can probably get something that could help me out with music production so I'm just asking for suggestions.
I already have KRK RP8 Monitors, AKAI Pro MPK49 MIDI Controller, and a Focusrite Saffire 8i6 Interface.

20$ over budget but 20$ isn't much to save up.. These 2 plugins are essential.
You have all the "main" hardware purchases someone needs to have a basic home studio; why waste the money on more hardware you don't 'really' need?

Chad, try finding a used turntable online or something so you can sample from vinyl records.

this sounds like a good idea...plus, if you get a good enough player, you could use it for a future DJing setup?

No one ever suggests acoustic treatment in these type of threads!
1.Read about DIY bass traps.
2.Read some more about DIY bass traps.
3.Go down to you local hardware store and buy supplys for making said bass traps.
4.Make bass traps.
5.Relish your new tighter and more accurate sounding bass response in your room
6.(optional) Have a celabratory wank.

Ok here's what you do:
1. Go to the store purchase trident layers
2. Also purchase a kitkat bar
3. I like kitkat bars
4. Hire a hooker
5. Enjoy hooker
6. Pay her in trident layers (You can do that according to the trident layers commercials)
7. You just got a hooker for 1.99
8. Congratulations
~Day 2~
1. Wake up
2. Purchase trident layers (I don't think I need to re-explain their usefulness)
3. Pick up a couple Games or some other cheap cigar
4. Call dealer
5. Buy weed
6. Pay with trident layers
7. Roll blunt
8. Blunt cruse
9. All day
~Day 3~
Rest Day
~Day 4~
1. Wake up
2. I've left out personal hygiene and eating (other than kitkat and if you snuck a piece of trident layers for yourself...bad)
3. Do those things.
4. Go to the store and purchase trident layers
5. Go home and start a beat
6. Get writers block
7. Think of favorite producer
8. Call him and ask him to work with you
9. He says no
10. Tell him you'll pay him in trident layers
11. He says yes
12. Your beat is now awesome
13. Fame
Thanks trident layers <3
