Re: Hey Ma! Look! Im a synthesist! (studio pics/gear list thread)

It's been many moons since I took a recent picture. Moved house since the last one and I've been selling off some gear for the new Mac mini (2.6GHZ Quad Core, 16GB RAM, 120GB SSD x2) pictured in the Gator rack.

FOR SALE: Focusrite Trakmaster Pro - Channel Strip (with optional Platinum A/D Card installed) $180 / JoeMeek MC2 - Stereo Optical Compressor $150

Re: Hey Ma! Look! Im a synthesist! (studio pics/gear list thread)

Not the best of studios, but it serves as a nice composition studio for me. The iMac has several firewire HDs streaming sounds from MOTU's Symphonic Instruments and Mach Five sampler.  The Korg M3 Xpanded is a beast and something I use for initial stages of composition, idea generation, and I love the Radias 3d modeling analog expansion board that I have installed. There is also a Korg M1 against the back wall (not shown), and the little rack at the bottom has a Korg 03r/W, Roland XV 2020, a Panasonic DAT, my 3rd Firewire HD, and a Firewire audio interface (M-Audio). There is a MOTU MicroExpress MIDI module on the table and I have two mixers. One is used as a sub mixer for the Korg M3 and M1. Studio monitors are Alesis Monitor One (older).  The controller on the table is an Oxygen 25, and I use MOTU DP 7.2 and Sibelius notation for scoring.

Maschine + Controller to the Right 0 the Onyx 1620 has he FW audio card installed) along with an NI audio interface - Z1, Nord 2X , Supernova, and Spectralis 2 all on the left.

Really like the flow with my work space now and everything is easy to gain access too - microphones etc are all off to the far right and hidden from view in the photo.

I know this sounds horribly prudish, but I removed that picture from your post.  Please remember that we try (emphasis on TRY) to keep this board as PG-13 as we can.  Thanks for understanding!

Hurrr. Derp, derp, derp.
