here's the last add : ultimate support , it's absolutly a beast  ....glad i choose this option as a remporate solution :

I've posted my previous cakewalk set up earlier in this thread, now we've moved into our new home and i've started building my new studio room with a new desk. It's not ready yet but i''l give you guys a sneak preview.











All comments are welcome...

Nice workstation Clada! When are you going to install the broadcast tower? It looks like a radio station.

Thanks M. I'm, as always, updating and adding to the beast. I'll get some current pictures up of the latest incarnation.

eBlue...

Toys, toys, toys...ain't it great.  You've got a very nice setup!  I know some others who have used IKEA desks and are pretty pleased.  The other setups shown in this thread look nice also.  Some are blessed with the talent to build custom; not me, I had to buy my desk.  Notice you have what looks like a Universal Audio LA-610 tube preamp/compressor; very nice - how do you like it?  Almost got one but a friend of mine in the Nashville recording business highly recommended a Great River MP-2NV preamp to me.  I'm extremely happy with it so far; has loads of character when I want it.  The V-700R gives me the clean pre's.

I posted my setup some time ago in another thread. Since then I've finished the acoustic treatment and added some other items.  Working on the reworking tracking room at the present and hope to finish it in the near future when things slow down a little.  If I get a chance, I'll post some pics of the acoustic treatment; that stuff ain't cheap, is it?

Later...

swizzle,

I've only had the LA-610 a few weeks. Haven't actually recorded any real artists with it yet. From my rough testing it sounds great and is very versatile. I have some projects starting up soon. I'm really looking forward to putting it thru its paces. I'll let you know how it goes. 

Craig, 
That actually IS the same foam hanging on the ceiling that's on the other walls ...I think what's throwing you off is the reflection of the foam off the glass that covers the light fixture. That white strip is actually the cutout for the light and indicates the actual ceiling line.

I know Craig, but as i'm coming out of the radioworld and producing commercials, promo's and jingles, i bought the studio furniture from a local radio station and modified it to my needs. As you can see in the pictures i have a recording area, but for fast working i've also put a mike in my control room, also easy for talkback ;-)

It's been a while since i've been here and noticed that my previous pictures are gone so i'm reposting them in the same post with some newer material, and yes again i've rebuild my studio with a new workstation that fits my  needs.

This is the first picture of me when i was discovering and trying out the vs700 system back at the studio were i worked in 2009




I was impressed and installed the same system in my own homestudio





While i was working in this homestudio we were building our new home, so after the move, i had to find a solution for the studiointerior that i left behind in my old house that i sold. I've found a solution as a friend of me told me that there was a broadcastdesk for sale at a radiostation where i worked some years ago, i've remodelled the desk to my needs and worked for about a year in this configuration.










After a year working in broadcast style it was about time to do things right, i' am working more than 8 hours a day in this room, so it needed to be lighter and more functional,  i looked at several workstations from argosy and others but did not really found what i liked, after some brainstorming with a studiofriend we decided to do it ourselfs, and hey, it worked out perfect ! It took us 2 weeks for building this awesome desk.














Today, after working the desk for a few months, we again altered some things, but not at the desk, i've added a 32inch led screen for video, replaced the KRK's with Genelecs and put in a central station for monitor control AND talkback system for the voicebooth as the cakewalk guys forget a talkback.


I will up some new pictures soon.

Let me know what you guys think !

This is the present situation:







and a view from the booth

Here's a design I'm working on. Just a few quick sketches, but I'll be building it here in a few weeks. And I'm willing to sell the blue prints if u want them.

I'm building my desk at the moment (for the Roland SI24). But there are some nice products out there for not too much money.

At sauder.com they have this desk for 233,99 dollar


At musician's friend (USA) and Musicstore (EU) there is the STUDIO RTA series;
422 dollar 

..apologies for crusty mobile phone 'quality'. Tried to edit the above also but keep getting server error. Cheers.

Thanks for the photo Clada... I stop to pause at your photos regularly I have to say...

 There are alot of nice desks out there...so here is mine that I built last year.

 Thanx...This pic was taken with other pics for insurance reasons...the sub sits alot further back out of harms way...I'm 6ft and sitting in front I can't reach it, so it is pretty safe...lol
