Yeah, it's been there for at least 4 years, I'd say. I think they had that 'look' during Learning to Breathe or The Beautiful Letdown.
Nice. Did you pick it up at one of their shows?

I may have finally got this to work
This is a beautiful picture. Reminds me of old pictures of Thomas Edison's lab and what-not.
It's usually not all that tidy. I picked up all the beer bottles and candy wrappers so the picture would look nicer.
Also I deliberately didn't stand back any further, so you wouldn't see the cat lurp on the carpet.
Were you intentionally going for the low-saturation sephia tone effect, or was that because of the lighting?
Actually the flash on my camera wouldn't work and that was just the morning sunlight coming through the windows at the other end of the room, and they have dark sheers in front of them.
I prefer a dark environment when I'm into my creative (term used loosely) moods.
I have two folding tables in my studio like the one in the corner. One is covered with Casio DP-1 drum pads. The other supports a 2-tiered shelf (bottom shelf at 45 degree angle, top shelf at 60 degrees) full of Electribes, little Behringer mixers, and Fostex multitrackers that I knocked together out of plywood.
I really need to get another camera. My last one got stolen.
lets start by saying that some studios i see in pictures up their look from the 90
i have a 3000 dollar desktop and running magix d.a.w connected to a 4 band myxer witch comes with a built in preamp and a 200 dollar mic. sometimes its not what you have but what you can do with your equipment... trust me
I have several of those small tables, and I sometimes surround myself with a variety of keyboards. I have other keyboards that I use on occasion, but just as sound generators. I will sometimes set up three or four of them, each receiving on a different midi channel, and each outputting audio into my mixer, which is connected to my DAW.
I used to have a couple of Casio (workstation) keyboards. The WK3500 was a great pleasure and so simple to use. I think some of the sounds in it's ROM were pretty good also.
The only issue I had with those and a couple of my low end Yamaha keyboards, was the amount of noise that came out of the audio outputs along with the music that you were trying to record. It didn't matter too much if you were just playing the instrument, but when trying to capture the audio signal, I would have to use a noise filter to make the resulting wave file acceptable.
Yeah, they are pretty noisy. What kind of filter did you use, and did you like the results?
Well it isn't exactly a filter, but a noise gate. It is part of the tools that come in Soundforge. I use it in real time, run from a separate computer, as I do with many of my audio effects. The biggest drawback, is by the time I get the noise levels down to where I want them, the audio quality of that track suffers measurably. Also if I add an EQ to the track to gain back some of the lost signal, I end up muddying up the track completely.
It is probably best to just not use noisy equipment in the recording process.
I have a couple of noise gates that I use with mine. I've heard of people not doing anything about the noise at all when they record their Casio, on the premise that it is what it is.
I just listened to a song I recorded last Christmas using the HT-700, CZ-101, and RZ-1. There's a slight background hiss, but it's not any more noticeable than cassette tape noise.
