What does your studio look like?

yeah - i also use usb for midi.... i have an m audio soundcard that has midi in and out but i never use them.... i have a midi cable connecting my novation remote sl compact to my maschine so i can use the keyboard in maschine standalone mode and when i use it in cubase i have a midi track going to maschine that i arm when i want to use the keyboard (including when i want to use it to record in the maschine plugin to make patterns)

 

Here's my lab...

 

so the many midi devices people have are mostly usb? wont you run out of usbs eventually?

 

got my KRKs today, after 5 minutes the neighbours complained

 

Ah yes... Suicide-Server and myself have both had this problem.

 

Welcome to the club Donfuan, i can really recommend the Sennheiser HD 650 just in case

Cheers

 

got the sennheiser hd 25

cheers

 

hd25-1 is my favorite too

 

Here is my lil lab.

 

nah..... i still have tonnes of usbs still free

i only have one midi in/out (unused)

anyhow, three controllers is more that enough -

novation sl for transport, record, synths, keyboards, fx modulation etc.

Nice clean setup!

 

Where did you get that desk? thats awesome!

 

Looks like Ikea to me...

 

Here it is, a little messy but it gets the job done.

 

It is the legendary Ikea Jerker V2 desk which was discontinued a few years back. I found 5 in my local area on Craigslist and got this one for only 60 bucks!

Pretty rare to find one in greak condition. makes a PERFECT studio desk.

 

Jerker is the best!..

 

I like your studio!
Are you using 3 pc-monitors on one computer? How do you do that? Are you using one single graphic card?
Just wondering...

 

Thanks!

Actually I am running all 4 monitors in the picture on one computer. I use 2 graphics cards each with dual dvi out for 4 outputs. Since it is not running complicated 3d graphics the cards dont need to be top of the line. While this is a bit overkill it is super awesome for my workflow since I can have plug ins, channel faders, midi, and edit window all open at once and can see them all at a glance.

PS. The monitor thing is MUCH MUCH MUCH easier to do in windows than mac os. Just a warning.
