    My new studio! Finally some pics

    We bought this rundown house (as you can see in the pics) in April of 2003. My wife saw ghetto, I saw "Fuck yeah, there's my studio"! So I had to promise her that if we got the house, I would fix it up quickly! Since I don't have any family out here, I've had to do this alone and fuckin' A I'm...

    Help me round out my arsenal!

    I'm getting ready to convert my garage into my studio. I have tons of gear but I need a few more things. Below is a list of what I have, and below that is a list of what I think would complete the list nicely. There are a couple of things not mentioned such as a sync box, cables, headphones...

    Any of you wackos have names for your ax(es)?

    What are the names you've given to your guitars? Mine is easy... I have a Geddy Jazz bass simply called "the Gedtser"! Any other cheezy ones here? :)

    Tascam ATR60-8

    Anyone have any idea of what a Tascam Atr-60-8 is worth in excellent condition? It has the original rack and Noise reduction as well. Ebay hardly ever has em' so it's hard to know. Thanks, RF

    It's yet another monitor question..... odd question?

    I'm now just about ready to transform my detached garage into a small studio. I plan on using it for my own personal use and possibly record friend's bands and small bands looking to record a demo. It will not be a full production type studio. My mics are good and my board is a Mackie 32-8 going...

    Compression & Prozac?

    Are we too dependent on Compression? Is compression to music what prozac is to depression? Do we automatically just assume that we need to compress any signal that goes through the desk? Are there any recording Gurus here that use compression as a last resort? Of course I'm assuming that the...

    I know there are no stupid questions really....but.......

    .....there are stupid people, and I feel like one of those at the moment! :o A home studio is finally a real concept. We now own the house and the garage is mine! I've been reading TONS of threads about the subject of construction and have done search after search. Here's what I can't...

    Real stupid ass ?? sorry!

    I went to owenscorning.com and could not find anything that says 703. Here's the link for Product Line-up. What am I missing? I did a search and almost saw what you guys were all talking about but the link that John provided didn't work for me. Thanks, RF

    Neoprene substitute

    If I were to buy an old wetsuit from a Goodwill type of store for cheap, would it be a good material to use under a floating floor if I cut it into strips? THanks, RF

    Another Behringer Question

    Does anyone have any experience with the Behringer 4x12 guitar cabinets? Would they in your opinion be alright for recording using a Pod Pro as the preamp. THanks, RF

    Excuse me for asking this............... but.........

    If I'm turning my new garage into a studio, in other words, just building walls inside, should I get building permits if I only plan on using it for my own use? How many of you Home reccers get permits to build your studios? RF

    Little less crued of a drawing...any thoughts?

    This is the space I have to work with. Any thoughts wouls be appreciated. The only thing I can see to try different would be to turn the board left to face the small corner, which would allow me to see both windows at a time. Thanks, RF

    Crazy Idea?

    I had an idea that I'm not at liberty to try at the moment but thought I'd ask. We use pop filters to get rid of the "P" sound and de-essers to rid of sibilance right? What if we had a small vocal booth (4w x 4L x 8T for example) with just fabric on the walls along with ....... each wall...

    Please check my 1st idea....

    This is my first idea for the studio. Please excuse the primitive drawing.... you'll get the idea. You'll notice that I put aside 2-3 feet in the fron where I need a tiny bit of room for garage stuff. The neighbor to my right (facing) is about 10 feet away from the top right corner of this...

I've been searching high and low for studios around that size and shape to get (er' steal) ideas from. Anyone here have a studio with those measurements? Or maybe ideas? My budget is healthy but...

    To Normalize... or to 3db higher? That is the question!

    I'm trying to make a compilation CD of all the things I've played drums on through the years. The levels are vastly different from tape to tape. I want to get the levels the same but I don't want to normalize for the sake of only level consistency. What would be the drawbacks of using the "3 db...

    Pre production review?

    I may have posted this before but this is a more updated version. It's going to be recorded again (for real) but I wanted some thoughts on the arrangement and the basic sounds. It's called El Diablo Thanks, RF El Diablo
