Got enough pics, geez. Cool studio though. Where are the instruments and where do are they recorded (last photos) ? I wouldn't mind being recorded in any of your studios. I don't have pics of my current set up, maybe next week.

The instruments are the 2 keyboards, the Grand Piano, and i have an alto saxophone, and an alto clarinet (in their cases)
The 2 keyboards are DI-ed to the AD/DA converter. The other instruments get miked.
The studio is set up for Surround Sound production and monitoring. I have 24 inputs, but can do up to 200 tracks.
Enough pics? Well, I didn't post any of the mic locker, or the vocal booth, or the seating area. :p

Shack-
The piano pictured is a 7'-2" Boston Semi Concert Grand.
It's my bay-bee!
 
after looking at Trackrats wiring, I decided to copy:p

Tsk, tsk, tsk....have I been lampooned? Don't make me come over there.:D
 
Yup. If you're going to do this for long, you have to come to love wires:

Frontside and backside of my patchbays. There's never enough wires! Well, wires and ty-raps. And solder- can't forget solder. And heatshink tubing.... (;-)

Anyway, a neat rig is a maintainable rig (ducks...). That's not as tidy as it should be- I was trying out a couple of effects above the patchbays, and hadn't reharnessed everything yet.

Okay, I guess I'll show mine. It might not look like much, but I believe in the k.i.s.s. formula. And guess what, it works.


My Home Studio
 
Actually, in the back of the rack there's very little heatshrink showing. I use 4-, 8-, and 16-conductor jacketed multipair cable from ProCo and Gepco for the runs from the rack- so what you see in there is just the stripped-back multipair cable. Essentially, what I built is multiple snakes terminated on the bays: so all 16 direct outs are on one multipair, all 16 line ins on another, all 16 inserts are on another, the stereo ins and outs for a reverb are on 4-pair, and so on. Makes it easier to keep straight at the board end, where everything fans out to 1/4" TRS connectors.

Why shrink, when you can get multipair and just strip back the jacket? (;-)

I use tons of heatshrink elsewhere, but very little back there.
 
Board...

I'm a big fan of those Behringers that you posess. I doubt I'd use it to replace my 1604 but maybe an addition later on...
 
hokypokynose,

the 1604 is what I had. The Behringer is far more flexable, and the pre's are just as quite as the mackie. The 1604 was a good all around board, but for pure studio work, I have to stay with the big B. I am looking at the new DDX3216 all digital board of Behringer. However, I will wait till I read more reviews and hands on use before doing that. I am well aware of what a lot of people think of Behringer, but for me, it is what I need for what I do and the price vs. flex is just unbeatable.
 
I don't know man...

1604vlz Pro vs. Behringer

I'm not convinced(not to say it isn't a VERY nice board). I like my Mackie and am very comfterble with it.

Plus it's new(3 months) and I don't want to get rid of it so soon and I have no doubt I'm going to keep it until it dies(and I know people who have left 1604s on for 10 years with out even shuting them off!).

I like your studio and all the others here. They all make me jeleous.
 
hokypokynose:

Hey, I have always wanted to ask you whenever I see your picture. How many of those channels do you actually use on your mixer? I am not trying to be a smartass or anything, but I had a 14 ch mixer before, and my setup is pretty much the same size as yours( from what I see in your picture) and I found myself having way more channels than I needed. So, I sold it for a smaller mixer.
Would you mind sharing your signal chain with us? I am just courious what advantage a bigger mixer offers except for tracking a whole band at once.
Thank you
