It's Battlefield 2142, a pretty cool multiplayer game. I get sick of the AI of computer bots in single player games, it gets too predictable sometimes. So I play against human opponents in 2142 for bit more of a challenge. It's fun & has a cool ranking system.

greetings

i'm not done setting up...

still deciding/wondering how i'm gonna make room for the rest of the hardware...

then one day, if i have any cash -unlikely because i just spend it on gear, or records... i will upgrade my ultra-ghetto furniture.

as you can see, my computer monitor is chilling on top of a KRK V8, the other V8 is next to it w/an mc-303 sitting on it (view blocked by the monitor... then i have another pair of V8's tucked underneath the turntables.

still have to make more cables, so i can hook everything up to the 02r...

Figured that out myself
A shame to see al those expensive tools in that awkward position.
I can't imagine sequencing something like that on the 909


Posted by sr126 on Apr-30-2007 03:47:

my main problem right now, is that this room is one part bedroom, one part dj place, one part makeshift recording studio, one part enterainment area w/tv, dvd, and it's own surround sound set up.

i have too much going on in this space. i'm planning on getting rid of the tv/enterainment system, so i set up against the next wall...

i really need to start making some serious money, so i can move into a larger space, and hopefully a safer neighborhood too. 'cause i refuse to put anything that you see in these pics in my living room.

hehehe @ the 909. actually the job of sequencing belongs to "azzurro". (mpc4000) i loved working the mc-909, it's great. but because i have always used an mpc, there are several things about the mc-909 sequencing/midi capabilities that i wasn't very happy with. i'm getting better milage by using the mpc as my sequencer/master. plus the mpc has better timing than the mc-909. maybe the 909 would work better w/other hardware when used as a master... but using the 909 to control kore... let's just say you can make it happen, but the 909 will not be able to keep it together 100%.

Wow, I'm loving that setup.

I'm after a desk like yours (where the pc is). I know you're in the US, but how much did it cost you and was it specially made?

You'd be getting comb filtering off the back of your screen
Move it a few inches back from the furthest corner of your monitors

Thanks, I'm loving it. The desk is a product from Studio RTA. They sell them at Guitar Center. There is actually a top part for it as well, but I didn't need that part of it, so I didn't put it on. I paid $499 for it. You should be able to get it from just about any major music retailer. Be aware, its super heavy but very sturdy.

Here is the link:

I'm not sure I understand what you mean, did you mean move the computer monitor back towards the wall more?


Posted by echosystm on May-05-2007 06:46:

Back towards the wall mate

Sound doesnt come straight out the front of the speakers, it comes out the edges too. Comb filtering and reflections are almost impossible to remove entirely since your screen would be so far back you couldn't read it. Life is about compromises.

If you have your screen like 2-3 inches behind the front of your speakers you should be fine.

ATM you have...

/ <- Speaker
-| <- Screen
\ <- Speaker

Make it like...
-/ <- Speaker
| <- Screen
-\ <- Speaker


Posted by Eric J on May-05-2007 07:05:

Ahh, I see what you mean. OK, I'll definitely get that done. I really appreciate the advice.


Posted by csid on May-10-2007 17:26:



just re-arranged some things, need to cleanup the cables and take a pic with a camera and not my phone :-)

Eric J, I'm located in San Antonio.
Is your studio open to the public?

I'm sorry, but it is not open to the public. It's just my personal studio.

Awesome EDM studio!

Eric J excellent studio & very clealy laid out. Do you still find your using the sound modules such as the jv and proteus 2000?

You know I really don't use them all that much anymore. The JV 1080 in particular is a great "bread and butter" synth, great for "real" instruments. So if I need a good sounding Piano or even a good choir, I'll turn to the JV for that. There is a patch called Deep Strings that has some of the best sounding strings I've ever heard, especially in the low registers. If you play a low C (octave 2 or 3) on that patch its got a great Cello type feel to it. Very warm. It gets more usage for non-EDM stuff.

The Proteus 2000 actually has some good basses and a few decent leads, and it is sort of quasi-analog in that I have the ability to tweak traditional analog synth parameters with the front knobs such as filter cutoff, resonance, etc.

I've had them for over 5 years now, so I kind of feel I've exhausted the possibilities with both of them and I'm kind of burnt on the sounds, but the good thing about that is that I know exactly where they will fit in a mix should I need them.

I started on a Yamaha PSR 200, 16 years ago...now...look at my "office", that's not trippy at all..haha



This isn't my first setup though I must say, I've had alot of other gear b4 that I sold (regretfully) to buy newer stuff to find my true sound... When I got my first synth 16 yrs ago, I kept on wanting more sounds. And I still want more, I can't help it...


Posted by Zombie0729 on May-18-2007 20:30:
