How clean is your studio?
Re: How clean is your studio?
I think its both you know. For me if its not clean & tidy with only what I need there. I can't do shit. I can imagine it being the same if you like the opposite though. The absence of clutter might make it seem a bit more hospital like. Probably great for surgical eq'ing though............Patriek wrote:I heard about some research that people with a messy desk are more effective!

I need the 'chaos' around me for some weird reason! Perhaps, one day, i will find the courage to clean up, take a picture and post it.
@ Patriek : Same here basically, its a spare room we have here in the house atm. I tend to live in a chaotic desktop environment aswell to be able to work. Something to do with creativity or maybe thats just an excuse to not clean up
Re: How clean is your studio?
Here's my music box now. Al tidy & clean. That's the way I'm gonna keep it now - hopefully - haha.
Don't have any synths, or decks or anything any more. A symptom of being a poor student with 2 mortgages to pay / wanting to eat & do general life stuff.
I got this desk a while back, but it was too low & you'd get a sore neck after a short length of time there.. so I added 2 lumps of wood to the bottom of it. height is perfect now. It'll never be on the antiques roadshow - but it does the job.
There's racks under the top shelf, but I wanted to stick the space echo in there.. so I had to extend the table top underneath it with a bit of wood for it to sit on. I've got an arm like Popeye now after screwing it in.
I've the Boss SE50 and the Space Echo too. I'm gonna try & have them set up permanently. Will do that over next few days when I get some time.

Aaah, the Boss SE50...used to play around with that thing back in the days. I remember sneaky into my brothers 'studio' and just play with his guitar/drumcomputer and the SE50. Some awesome effects, specially with a guitar plugged in to it
Don't try for perfect, it's never enough

Re: How clean is your studio?
This is what passes for a studio in my house. Less than ideal monitor placement, I know, but need must:
And this is the living room. The CDJ only comes out when I am using (the I deal made with the wife ) and the laptop has Traktor Scratch and an Audio 8, but I don't use it anymore:
Oh yeah, this is my NI Maschine (kind of):

Re: How clean is your studio?
Now I have worked out the best way for me to use it, I love it and use it all the time. When I first got it I tried to map all my VSTs and that was a complete disaster.
What I do now is use the Ableton purple hand mapping. So with VSTs I will group them (even if there is nothing to group it to) then I will map the 8 macros to whatever I want to control, then play them on the Nocturn.
I end up having at least one grouping on each channel, and I save ones I use regularly as Instrument racks.

100% - They are shit for plug in control.
DAW control on the other hand.. VG.

Re: How clean is your studio?
Nice setups guys, I ended up getting 3 electric heaters and a dehumidifier and in 2 days it dried out sweet apart from a slight smell but that's nearly gone now, no other damage apart from a stinky carpet
