Well, most soundcards don't have enough inputs to hook all of your
synths to it.

I mean, you can't hook up 5 synthesizers into 4 inputs.

yeh that was the only thing I could think of.. is a mixer cheaper than buying a sound card with like 10ins ? are there any other reasons for using a mixer?

Yeah, you can pick up mixers for pretty cheap and you will have alot more on them than just those inputs you will also have multiple outputs and inserts.

looks good...

only thing i would suggest is move the speakers a bit further apart so you get more of a stereo image and overall better sound.

I agree with CJ, put the monitors wider, having them like that doesn't only ruin the stereoimage but it could also result in sounds from both speakers canceling eachother much earlier than else.

ohh and another thing, unless thoose speakers/monitors are built to be lying down I suggest you have them standing like they should because it can also give a somewhat false image of the sound.

forgot to write that apart from what I wrote in my previous post I think it was a very nice setup, the placement of everything looks a little like I want it

does anybody have one of these chameleon things?

http://www.soundart-hot.com./english/index.htm

It seems to be more of a toy for nerds who like to play with DSP stuff but I was wondering if any musicians had one too.

It looks like it would be very fun to play with, although some will just call it a really expensive software dongle.

Anyway, I was wondering what ppl though of this thing.

This is my studio a few months ago...
Some Equipment has not been photographed yet, and soon I will replace those crappy speakers with some real studio-monitors...
