FEATURE YOUR HOME STUDIO ON homestudioguy.com?

Post by bobg (homestudioguy) » Thu Sep 20, 2007 6:26 pm

Well, my little home-brewed (speaking of beer) 1000 hits-a-month website (www.homestudioguy.com) for my little home studio has for the past 18 month or so has been all about me.
(There's no ego in that is there? :lol: )
Part of what I am doing now is featuring home studios of other folks and DIY projects and am looking for some help from y'all.

If you have an interest in having your studio featured on homestudioguy, please see the general format below then e-mail photos (jpeg pleeez) and info (or any questions) to me at homestudioguy@verizon.net

Take a look at the folks I have spotlighted on my site now for examples!!!!
Thanks!
hsg

Primarily, for each home studio I would like to get 3-4 (JPEG) photos (Low Resolution if possible), a list of primary equipment, a paragraph about your favorite piece(s) of gear or instrument and a couple of paragraphs about you, your music and how you record.

Preferred Photos(JPEG PLEASE):
1) Wide shot of your mixing area (with you in it if possible!!!) as this will be the primary photo.
2) A photo of your primary rack(s)
3) A photo of your microphones or a favorite microphone.
3) Another photo, your choice of subject, if you so choose.

Written material: A paragraph or 2 (each) about
1) You, your music, and the primary instruments that you play.
2) How you record (ProTools/Cubase/8-track reel to reel/ADAT/AW16G/etc)
3) Your favorite piece(s) of gear.
4) A list of your primary studio equipment and instruments

Internet Links that will increase your visibility:
1) To your studio site
2) To your music/band/performance group
3) To myspace.com or other similar sites

If I ever get the control room cleaned up (which may happen after this last round of projects) I'll take some new pics and submit...

also (and i say this in only the most gentle and loving way, and only because i think this is a great idea for a site that lots of people would want to visit), it might be a good idea to consider a redesign... the organization of information and content is kind of unclear at this point.

I appreciate that, Smitty!
FYI, you're not the first that has softly and gently made that suggestion.
If you have any suggestions, I am all ears.
I believe it is starting to fall together somewhat now that I have some folks sharing their studio info etc. I'll be spending some more time soon to get it smoother.
THANKS!!!
PS-How about submitting something on your behalf?!
The format is at the bottom of my homepage.

no photos of me, tho, cos i don't wanna have to replace my camera.

perhaps, but you have far better gear...and, more importantly, better EARS.
