let me see your studio!

[VESSEL2020]

Wow. That's quite a pair you've got there.

Thanx! I shouldn't have a hard time findin' the "sweet spot" right?

But, no..seriously, I've got a pair of NS-10's. Just not in that setup. (although they should be)...

They (peaveys) do the trick for what I need 'em for right now...until I get another pair of N.F. monitors.

My music space before ikea:

My new music space after a trip to Ikea:

Looks good for the wife, now I need to figure out how to make it sound good and still look good... Probably doesn't help that it's in the "loft" space so missing 1.5 walls

Hi All,

I've been slowly building my workspace up over the years and am close to what I think is a fully functional home studio. There are some sound proofing items I'm still working on. I try to research things before I implement them into my space. My latest project was creating a keyboard slide for my desk. This totally allowed me to open up the room to add a seating area. My next project will be speaker stands. I upgraded to the KRK8's and my old stands are not working out with them. Here's a few photos of my updated space... let me know what you think and any ideas on sound isolation and room improvements are greatly appreciated. Thanks!!

Nice space! I especially like the diffuser on the back wall, like a piece of art! If you're into the DIY thing, you can build some cheap speaker stands using some IKEA stuff if you have one near by. http://ikeahacker.blogspot.com/2010/06/vika-curry-speaker-stand.html

EDIT: Whoops! Should've kept reading till the newest post before I posted this, didn't see you already modded your desk!

Hey, we have the same portastudio! I don't need it much anymore, I more or less use it to get sound out of both an amp and to my computer for REAPER. I need to post updated pics soon.

Got a friend who uses Logic 9, I was pretty impressed by it.
Have you tried the mastering presets? (duck, the purists are coming....!)

nope, i read a tutorial in them but so far ive only used the synths and just learned the basic...I have to get a cable to plug it into the monitor..

i will say the synth stuff in logic sound pretty excellent, and what ive tried of the plug ins as well looks better than much of the stuff i already own..it'll take a while before I tire of playing with them

Exponential horns! Yay! Still planning on building a Jericho Horn with a Seas Exotic F8 driver. Ah well, so many projects...

I've been running logic for 2 years now and I just tried the mastering presets on my latest project (the presets channel strips for Channel 1-2) and they sound phenomenal. I had no idea this has been in my program the whole time!

Hi Guys,

This is my mini me studio, I know it's not my main studio ha ha, but I put this together as in 2 weeks I am going to India for 2 months.

Last time I was there 9 years ago I was kicking myself for not taking some recording gear to record street players and many small festival performers. A lot of these performers can never record their work. I even sat in for a jam session with a Tibetan rock band in Mcleodganj. I plan to record with the zoom, edit on the notebook and save to wave & mp3, eventually I will get a copy to the performer in some format they can play.

This set up can do anything I need and it fits in a small bag. Coffee cup optional.


Cheers
alan

My "studio" in a bar last night.

 

[Monkey Allen]

Were those two speakers actually what you used to amplify your performance?

I wasn't performing, I was recording a 5 piece band (drums, 2 guitars, bass, sax). I used a total of 15 inputs. I haven't had the time to do a real mix yet. I wasn't given the time to set up properly (they arrived later than I did) and didn't even start recording until the second set because of that. Hopefully something decent will come of it.
