Same old man....other than the rfact that my studio space is flooding and my landlord evicted me so he can fix everything and sell the place...sucks...after 4 years of living there its gonn a be a hell of a job moving....gotta be done tho...

I'm moving end of this month too. I got a basement like yours in my new place, carpeted and with drop ceiling and even a small room ready to be isolated. Moving lots of gear sucks! This will be my fourth studio move and I have more gear than ever. On the topics of racks I want to build a nice desk in my new place with racks on either side of the computer monitors for more hands on gear like synths and comps.

Mpc 2500, Fantom x8, and a sp1200 and run that all into a reel to reel or the a Presonus Studio live (depending on the project) and dump it all into pro tools 9. throw in a blue berry mic with reflector and room treatment and thats a nice lil setup for me. But when i move to cali I'm gonna build a whole sound proof booth for vocals, horns, and live drums. 8)

oh and of course a walk in closet full of vinyl with the turntable, but that should go without saying on this forum.


When are you moving to Cali?

there's a mod kit for the mpc 1000 that lets you put a laptop drive in it
can't be safe for touring, but i stay at home, and i've wanted a nice 120 gig drive in the b1tch for years !
not so bad using a 16 gig memory card, though, so i've largely abandoned that dream.

but it would still be intensely goddamn swank.


i always want more synths. stupid ones, good ones, modulars, whatever !

and more fx. stunningly esoteric and strange fx
