What COLOR is your studio ? ? ?
It seems like most of the studios Ive seen are painted BLUE. I guess the dark color must give off a creative vibe.
What color is your studio?

dark olive walls with a dark cream color for the ceiling. I go against the blue and will not be assimilated!

I see you are playing some Weather Report there too Reece...  I don't have a Studio I merely have a scraping set aside in the living room, in similar colours (albeit much classier though... ) to Reece's there.

I think a matte finish rather than silk, would have worked better there plus it is 20-40% better acoustically.
I do like the musical scroll though I have nothing to compete with that.

Hmmm.
Something about that room seems oddly familiar, yet different.

Mostly white, with some dark white here and there. A little medium white in the middle.
No problems here, Janet, but I just got on a few minutes ago.

Dark blue feature wall, with cream on the other 3. The blue was chosen for its exact 30% increase in acoustic value over some weird green color. I'm picky like that.

Janet, yes, for a bit, but it seems to have cleared up.
I was getting a server error message.

At the moment the walls belong to the landlord, so they are just white. But at some point, when the walls are mine, I think I would like to paint a mural.

Very light blue with dark blue sound baffles and red/white/blue curtains. The curtains are American flag designs and a well faded flag hangs behind the desk. White ceilings and trim. Very light oak flooring.
A very relaxing feel. I was told green causes hunger, blue relaxes, but I don't know why.

Umm, Orange? and Yellow. Rich   This photo is deceiving. The wall looks like two different colors but it's not. I'm a lousy photographer.

Truth be told, my studio is an off white that has a tinge of green to it. It was left over from the kitchen. I've got a lot of Red Cedar trim as well as the slats for my Helmholz resonators and it makes the walls look more like a cream color. I'd love to switch colors but the natural wood locks me into certain colors.

I tried to post this last night but couldn't because of the server error: so JB - you like the scroll? that was hand painted by the loverly Mrs. Beagle and she also made the notation on a scroll saw and painted and hung those. but...no mention of liking the 1800's square grand ivories?? I think it's really cool! and heavy... makes it hard to play on the wall at that height, tho... no ivories hammered...

Beagle, I meant to mention to you last night, but I kinda think that if you move that keyboard down and place it a little more traditionally...it just might help with your piano playing. Just a thought..
Rich, you're not a lousy photographer. Those are great pictures. But here we thought you were just a really cool sax player (which you are, and which is enough!)...and look at you! Two keyboards, drums, a serious mixer AND a really cool studio (although I'm not partial to yellow, but to each his own!). :-) What else are you holding back on us?

My primary color is yellow, not for any aesthetic reasons but because I am too lazy to cover all the 703.

Hey Rich. We have the nearly the same Alesis Drum Kit. I added two more pads (3 Rack Toms, 2, floor) and a crash with choke. In order to accommodate those I had to add the Alesis IO.

Depends on which one... Most of them are white with decor or racks of equipment in front of the walls so I guess that would be considered the color...... "Gear"??
My home studio is light orange and white

Bapu, Yeah I also want to add more pads and cymbals. I'm not totally satisfied with the snare and Hi hat. And that's cuz I'm no Drummer (**Cough** refrains from tellling snide drummer joke). I want to get something better of each. However, My current priority is to get me a decent 5-string bass guitar. I'll probably go with an Ibanez SR500 or 700 series. That's IF I can convince the wife! Rich
