Studio

Here are a couple of pics of my current home recording studio, at least since 2006.

Standing at the back for an overview of the space.

Here’s where I sit. I’m using a MOTU 828mk2 for the interface, a Behringer HA800 headphone distribution amp, a dbx 1066 compressor. A Behringer BCF2000 controller is there to help with Cubase SX3. As usual, the small speakers (w/subwoofer) are for non-critical listening (TV, games) and mix double-checks. The CD/DVD player is under the desk with the Alesis RA100 amp. An AMD Athlon 64 sits in an Antec Sonata II case, 1GB RAM, 2 200GB drives. It’s quiet, even.

Here’s where the Kurzweil K2500XS fits in. Notice the Auralex-faced gobo; the back of it is a whiteboard. My trusty Mackie 1604VLZ is still around.

Here’s the front of the room. From L to R: mandolin and autoharp cases on the floor, Remo 14″ djembe, red Peavey Patriot, Martin D16H (in case) Roland KC500 amp, Sterling ES-335 clone, Pignose G40V tube amp (it’s LOUD!), Crate GX-15 amp, Shure 55S mic (the “Elvis” model), and Fender Squier P-bass.
