studio update got an ssl nucleus for 1500 the other day

Holy shit! $1500!?!? Damn, I would've jumped on that instantly. Been wanting a center piece for a while, but the good ones are all too damn expensive to justify it.

A straightforward setup with a Mac Mini running Logic and a Mackie Universal Pro for the real feeling of mixing ... and blinky/flashy lights!

Inside the box:
Nomad Factory Analog Signature Pack EQ, Studio Channel, & Limiter
Nomad Factory Magnetic II
BBE Sonic Suite

Outside the box:
ART Pro MPA II preamp
M-Audio FastTrack Pro
'90s "vintage" JVC Home Stereo

It's served me well thus far...

@ the cab in the bathroom. Totally wasn't expecting that one.

There's been a few changes since I posted my original picture. Here's the current set up

I wish I didn't have so much stuff, so my setup would look like this. Everytime I go in my room I'm angered cause it looks so damn cluttered



Buying a house soon though, so I hope to set up a live room/photo studio and a mix room/office in the two unused rooms of the house. I'm also building some pretty monitor stands this weekend. Pretty excited

Man, this is a sweet looking setup here. I also suffer from the lack of space and things end up getting cluttered. Best of luck with the projects this weekend.

Agreed! I wish I had even more space as well, but what I could really use right now is some acoustic treatment. I gotta load a pic of mine later

Build some!

Cost me ~$350 to do 4 - 48"x24"x4" broadband absorption panels, 4 - 96"x24"x4" corner traps and 1 - 48"x48"x4" overhead cloud... and I built mine all fancy with stained birch frames and metal corners.

I'm glad to see my thread still trucking along nicely! Things have changed a LOT since my last post in here - I completely changed the orientation and position of my studio space to make for a much better working layout. The only problem is the sound went from being really rather good to being very poor with mix position change, so I bit the bullet and get hold of a large amount of treatment from GIK Acoustic, who were great to deal with. I installed it all today, here's the rundown and pic:

Monster bass traps with diffusers in the corners (both the low and angled pairs behind the monitors), 244 bass traps to the sides, 242 absorber panels at the primary reflection points on the angled side walls, and a 242 hanging from the ceiling above the mix position (not in shot).

.

Apart from that, I've added a Vintech 273 dual pre and a Distressor (Brit Mod) compressor to my racks, which are sounding great so far!

 

[Winspear]

Awesome Nolly. How are you liking that Distressor? Feel it offers you something that plugins can't?
I'm about to order a large panel for my rear wall reflections from GIK, too. Unfortunately it's the only primary point that is practical to cover in my current room, but it should help quite a bit

 

[greglecompte]

nice how do you like the vintech 273 ? if you have any problems i work there so i may be able to help

Thanks! I feel the Distressor does get a hardness and power that I haven't been able to achieve with ITB compression, though I'm perfectly aware that that could be psychosomatic. The benefits of being able to compress vocals and bass on the way in during tracking are pretty huge though, and regardless of analoge or digital format, having the combination of great sounding saturation and multi-mode compression in one place at my fingertips is really useful.

Awesome! I like the sound a lot, it's my go to pre. PM'd

One monitor for music editing and one for video editing (covers/play-throughs). There's also another studio monitor next to the right monitor that I apparently didn't include in the picture.

Dodgy pic, but you get the idea!

^What board is that? Looks cool.

Now you just need to get rid of that wallpaper

The flooring is pretty bitchin though. I dig it. With as much gear as you have in there, it actually looks really clean. I need to rearrange my room, but there's so much stuff in it, I have no where else for it to go! haha
