I just moved into this room, and I find it very comfortable.

Hey I have that same 4 track cassette portastudio....what do you use it for these days? Haha, 'these days'....I got mine in about 2003 or 2002.
 
hardly even comparable

so here's my studio mind you i am broke!!! :) i got those rp5 monitors for $55 each! and two sm57 for $40 each i'm a deal hound. hopefully by the time im in my thirties i'll have a respectable job and have a studio half as cool as some of the stuff i've seen on here.

It was the first Postastudio I bought new back in '98:eek:
I find it useful when recording drums following a guitarist:
All mics intoTascam 2488 --> Tascam 2488 line out --> Tascam 414
Guitar and click track go into the 414.

I've only done this once, and worked like a charm:)

Cheers!
 
Here's mine

Yeah, some of my stuff is outdated (15 years or so) but it still works great. I've yet to find another keyboard today that has the same realistic piano sounds as my Ensoniq TS-10.
In the next couple months, I will be building a real studio in a space about 16'x24'. Once it's finished, I will post the pics on here.

GreyH, nice gear mate:)
You have the right equipment to make great recordings; so another 2488 user. What are your comments on how it has worked for you? I've had mine for more than a year, and it's a great machine, no complaints:D

Formant, you too have one, wow, 3 2488s on the same page:)
I'm sure all that gear will look gorgeous in the new studio.

Cheers!
 
i want to post pictures of my studio but i need 5 posts first...here we go!
 
Hey Nico, add me to the list...

I just received my 2488MKII last Tuesday (bought it brand new off Backstreet Music/Ebay)...I'm still finishing up tracks on my DP02 so I haven't jumped into it yet, but your enthusiasm encourages me.
 
HAHA!!! I DID IT! Took me 8 hours, but I went from page 1 to page 96! Wow, just want to say everyone who has posted pics, and tips for others to see, THANKS! The studios look great! When I get my build completed I will be sure to add the pics in here. :)

Congrats mate:)
I'm sure you're going to have a blast upgrading from your DP02 to a 2488MKII. Tons of fun...and Tracks :D
Post pics.

diy vdrums with real cymbol triggers and a lot of circuit bent keyboards an drum machines I had around for a circuit bent sample collection I was working on
 
Been reading the forum for awhile now and this is by far my fave thread. There are some seriously awesome studios here, better than I could ever hope for. Some bigger than my house, some vocal booths bigger than my room!
Got lots of ideas for things I should do with my little space though, especially from the accoustics and will be re-arranging everything tomorrow.

Thanks for all the useful tips I've already picked up from everybody

yeah i'm definately happy with my 2488 it does everything i want it to do, except some of the mic fx are pretty bad but i hardly use them anyway. also, lately my buttons don't work, i have to push them in several times and then they work. other than that it's working out alright.
 
To be honest, I haven't used the built in FX ever:)
I apply effects and edit "in the box".

That's what I've heard (about the buttons); I'm lucky then, never had a problem with any of mine (414, DP-01, 2488) :D
 
Wow lot's of 2488 users! I keep meaning to post a picture of my new dual 2488 (I'm calling it the "4888") setup.

Yeah, the button thing is pretty common though after 3 years my 1st machine still only has the problem occasionally.

As for the mic FX I've actually found having 8 insert compressors really useful during mixdown.
 
Its a well known fact the colour Red is better for studios as it absorbs more sound than colours from the other end of the spectrum such as blue - helps with the room treatment.

Hmm, wish I'd read this before as I've almost finished the room and the walls are blue Doh! :o
