prophetik music Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 Oh, the Mopho is there. It's just in a different spot now. It's sitting next to the Slim Phatty. I can play the accordion a little. It was a gift from my grandfather when I was a kid. I never took lessons or anything like that. shaggy, what desk is that with your monitors and mac and sound equipment? did it come with the racks? because it looks exactly like what i want with mine =) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theshaggyfreak Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 shaggy, what desk is that with your monitors and mac and sound equipment? did it come with the racks? because it looks exactly like what i want with mine =) This is the desk: http://www.guitarcenter.com/Studio-RTA-Creation-Station-Studio-Desk-102924578-i1152461.gc I've had it about three years now and so far it's worked out rather well. Be careful if you try moving it around on carpet with all your gear on the desk. I did that and one of the wheels broke right off when it got stuck on a piece of the rug. It wasn't a big deal, though. I was able to just drill some new holes and put it right back on. Now I just leave the desk where it is.

Souliarc Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 Heh.. Yeah had that custom made .. It's huge but love the space .. I bet! All you need is a moat around there and it will be quite a fitting man castle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now I just leave the desk where it is. nice. where'd you get the mounts for in the rack bays? it's awesome that they're 4U, since that's what my new computer is =) this would be a perfect music desk for what I need. just would need a keyboard tray and i'd be set. edit: holy mix-station batman!

SenPi Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 edit: holy mix-station batman! Now THATS what im talking about . I might grab that mix station one of these days. I also like the one shaggy has, but it doesnt have a pull out think for the keyboard/mouse which I would need because my 88key midi controller would take up all the desk space Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

prophetik music Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 Studio RTA make pretty decent desks for the price. i might build a tweener with my dad, similar in size and design to the smaller one but with the storage down the right side and a bit more overall desk space. and a keyboard rack.

BlackPanther Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 I need to upgrade my desk. I think I'm gettin tired of using the monitor stands xD, I want to put my monitors on a desk but the one I'm currently using is much too small ;_;. Are these Studio RTA desks designed so you can put the keyboard on the desk while still retaining the correct sitting posture and hand positioning?

GSO Posted May 10, 2011 Share Posted May 10, 2011 what other basic stuff do you need for a "studio" besides a midi controller keyboard? I, like katethegreat19 use both acoustic instruments & electronic VSTs. here's some of what I have already: PC w/1000 GB storage casio px-575r keyboard as midi controller some of my acoustic instruments violin lap harp guitar pan flute ukulele some of my VSTs 4front piano module(free) DSK WORLD STRINGS(FREE) EDIROL ORCHESTRAL(FREE, LOOKING FOR A BETTER CELLO PATCH) other equipment USB LOGITECH MIC acoustic mic w/pop filter mic stand software mixcraft 4(i'm a total noob when it comes to combining the computer with my music. otherwise I'd use fruity loops) beatcraft(drum program for a noob) sibelius 5 first( for writting stuff down) ive tried the demo of fruity loops. my brain wants to explode every time i try to use it. is there like some secret to it? I don't get it. tell me if this is the wrong forum for this and i'll post it elsewhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

prophetik music Posted May 11, 2011 Share Posted May 11, 2011 just an fyi, wolf, i picked up gofriller cello a while back for uber cheap in a sale, and it's actually pretty darn good. if you can get it for cheap - i think i paid 60$ used? - it's not bad at all. uses kontakt, just plug and chug.

I didn't even know it was still available anywhere. note the word used. i got it from someone else. wolfmizu, no, there isn't. this is the next best thing - you can use the kontakt vsti plugin in fl studio.

GSO Posted May 21, 2011 Share Posted May 21, 2011 Are two computer screens a necessity for a home studio? cuz I've seen lots of studio pics here with two. my studio desk is tiny. fitting two screens on it will be difficult. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
big giant circles Posted May 21, 2011 Author Share Posted May 21, 2011 Not necessary, but it just gives you more real estate, which is always nice since it can get hard to squeeze all the necessary windows and GUIs on one screen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prophetik music Posted May 22, 2011 Share Posted May 22, 2011 Not necessary, but it just gives you more real estate, which is always nice since it can get hard to squeeze all the necessary windows and GUIs on one screen. you're an FL user, right? i've often seen people use a large primary and a smaller secondary to fit their playlist and mixer on the second and their piano roll, synth settings, etc on the big one. works really nice. i used three for a while, with the playlist being on the third, but it's a bit excessive in my opinion.

theshaggyfreak Posted May 22, 2011 Share Posted May 22, 2011 With Reason/Record, I find that two screens really helps a lot. I can have the mixer window in one and the rack/note lanes in the other. It helps out with my work flow quite a bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cerrax Posted May 23, 2011 Share Posted May 23, 2011 (edited) Yeah the ability to watch the playhead's position on both the mixer and the piano roll in Logic, while also monitoring all of the plug-ins on another screen helps a ton. It's not necessary, it just prevents me from swapping Spaces and possibly missing something in the process. Also, using a huge 1920 x 1080 screen for my plug-ins is awesome.
