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

Man blue has wayyyy too many problems, flutter echo all over the place, and your gonna need tons i mean TONS of bass traps.
 
He's kidding. One color has absolutely no advantage over another. Paint the walls whatever color you want.

Phew, good to know and saved a major household row - I will now paint the walls whatever colour I want - which just happens to be exactly the same colour my wife wants - funny that. ;)
 
Here's my first post on this forum... This is my small home set up. It's based around an old G4 and Mbox2 running Pro Tools LE 7.0, with various mic pres I've collected throughout the years. Right beneath the computer monitor are my latest acquisitions, the guitar hero toy amp out of my Corn pops this morning, and my best piece, the sonogram of my first kid. My only hope now is that she'll either become interested in recording, or singing, so I can convince my wife when I need or want a new piece of gear!

Thanks, Grey! Now I just need to figure out what pres I need to replace my Presonus bluetubes. I don't really use them too much now that I got the Avalon and the Trident.
 
I noticed a lot of you have those little black heart half stacks. Why are they such a studio staple? Also, how important are sonic maximizers?
 
wow I feel like i could crawl in your studio and never return. Man I'm uber jealous, do you own it or work in it, or both lol? Either way props.

shes all mine lol. just doing it outta the house. but it works, sounds good. :) & thanks man!
 
My new setup :) Not quite done yet.
This is during playtime, not music time!
I record things away from here (in studios, at peoples' houses, etc) so this is more a mix rig than a studio.
