Hey, Ref. Yeah, it's a Squier that used to be my synth controller until I refinished it.

I also have a tele now.

nothing wrong with a Tele!

It warms my heart to see so many Hammonds in these pics.

Of course not. I just figured, since I've previously been kinda Les Paul-oriented, that it may come as a surprise.

It is, in fact, a big guiro.

Those pics show neither the guitars (safely in their cases) nor the piano which is pretty lousy for recording but hysterical for playing.

That Technics receiver is pretty fun. I use the flywheel tuning as an input to my synthesis chain, generally. I've got the turntable, CD player and a drum machine going into a DJ mixer, which then goes to the 828mkIi which also has the keys plugged into it. This whole plug the firewire cable into the mixer and be recording in minutes thing is pretty nice and novel. Wifey thinks the keyboard setup takes up too much living room, but all told it has a very contained footprint, and it makes for a creative process nicely integrated with the rest of life. Only thing she really takes exception to are the cables, which can get a little out of control admittedly.

Well it's taken me a minute to get around to this, but i promise I haven't cleaned up or organized or done anything to the space since this thread started many weeks ago.

Very nice.

Now, are we all agreed I win messiest? (See first post herein.)

Sure, as pictured. I needed to take a picture of my recording space for a messageboard thread, so I fixed it "before the mix."

Pulling gear in and out of a chain/space can really mess it up. This last reorganization I managed to separate out my cables into a jamming/gigging crate and a recording crate, so that things can pop back neatly into place rather than exploding if I have to do something different than what I have been (sitting in the house recording jams).

OK, here are a couple of shots of my place.

The mix area. Not a lot of recording gear in the way of important things like amps...

MIDI ghetto...

Drum set amidst the Studio Traps

Tape machines and analog synths...

One more of the drum kit...

Cheers,

Otto
