For me at least. It was fun and all before. But it looked decidedly messy - At least by this standard - And had a horrid, case of jungle-zed studio spaghetti - There was a floor, undergrowth and a canopys worth.... lol The usual problem of acquiring new gear and being to excited to try it out to be bothered with how or where the cables fell. This time neatness is key. I got about 1k velcro 6" and 10" ties and everything is actually tidy.
Pardon the pics - This is a proud new papa - Tho waiting on my acoustic treatements is KILLING ME (I've already ARC'ed the room - Ready to get some bass traps, baffles and the SFS sono-columns up!! Tho, in reality - It's probably good that I have to wait on the treatments, because - I REALLY need to pain the walls something other than frican' beige!
About 70%+ of the gear is new/newly replaced - Pardon the bandwidth, but there's a lot of pics from a proud new papa...
Gear list.... The studio will be sound treated this week and hopefully open for business the next ... :banana:

Though its a bit hard to believe - This is the same room, but in "junk" furniture and a weak, improvised, and thoroughly amateurish MESS.... Geez, stuff is spilling off the already overloaded desktop. Every time I look back at the way the studio was just a week ago makes me cringe-ugh... lol
