"Ilikemypocketsfat", Thanks dude! The carpet is about 1 1/2 old and yes I do have to vacuum a lot (LOL). The power strips were about $50 bucks each at Guitar Center.

"hfinal", thanks man. I'll take a close-up on the MPCand post it. I do make a living off of my studio in addition to my regular 9-5 gig. I've recently started an independent record label and I'm looking for some female talent here locally.

the s6000 i only **** around with a little. i just got it. it seems really cool. I thinkif anyone is thinking going mpc3000, think 2ce, go mpc60+s6000, s6000 are SO chepa now. have huge amount of ram. lots of scsi options, 32 channels of midi. and usb... and detachable face, that sits right on the mpc60 perfectly. and the two combo is about the same price as an mpc3000 n u get so much more. i bought that shit on ebay for like $400...**** nice. cheap ass samplers lately. **** the ASR10 overpriced.

the space echos arecool but to be honest i think i'm selling them to go on teknival tour in europe this summer.

I agree that is a nice set-up. One thing that puzzles me though. Are those Behringer monitors? If so, why did you get all that dope gear and cheap out on monitors? I'd like to see some genelec's in that piece.

The Behringer actually sounds pretty good in my room but some Mackies or some Genelecs are my next investment!!! I have some Event 20/20's but they're too bottom heavy :x

Yeah man, as soon as I saw your set-up I was like "this man needs some Mackies or Genelecs to compliment the rest of his gear." I was actually guessing that was going to be your next move because the behringers are the weakest link in your chain. I figured you knew that by what you have already assembled.

Actually when I heard the behringers i was pretty impressed. I was going to buy me a pair but I stayed away because I didn't think they were designed to handle bass too well. The ports rattled too easy. They are a good speaker for the price though.

I built the hole unit myself, out of MDF.

Its on wheels and i can move the whole desk into my front room if i want.

I also got 2 ten plug extension leads bolted onto the desk so moving the whole desk is easy!

Also check out http://www.myspace.com/beatconsole I just posted some new beats.
