when not boxing or delivering pastries, this is the room. I work from home so i spend 10hrs looking at both laptops. They are what i use for the internet/email/admin stuff then when i can make music i can turn the big PC for music only. It is very stable. the thing doesn't crash. its connected to the network, but only to transfer files from the laptops. i use the dell and mac for dev work.. making reaktor and max/msp patches and sound design.

i only use the desktop for the main sequencing/mixing work. to note: umami made me some dope little brackets to fasten my motu under my door desks (they're made from solid core doors) he is a great person to know.. cuz he can build anything out of foam and or metal.

I have removed pretty much all my hardware synths and mixing desks from this setup. working entirely in the computer is so fast for me. that is how i always worked. even back when i had a four track and a goldwave version 1 in 1993 i would just do everything in the computer and track it four track.then in college we did everything with CSound/CMusic and later Max. The VSTi and super fast personal computers have made all this waiting for sounds to 'render' such a thing of the past for me. i could not work in this environ: link

i've just recently began recording various live instruments for later processing instead of working with found vinyl samples.

the room used to be fully carpeted. but the cats ruined the carpet pretty quickly. the concrete floor has made this room too bright sound wise.. the big Ikea rug helps.. but I still can tell. i would like to spend some time sound reinforcing the room.. but i have no idea where to start.but it is really nice to have this much space. i had a drummer come over the other day.. had plenty of room.. even tho the room sounded like ass. this room has spoiled me. if i had a mini fridge and a toilet close.. i would never leave.
hello world
