Studio

Finally got the new studio set up. It's on a wide L-shaped bench fully accessible to my power wheelchair, and everything that I can still do hands-on is Right There. It's set up for a/d transfers, mastering, composition, voice-over, and Ken Burns-style multimedia content creation. Two work stations (one dedicated to weird computer based composition using flakey apps that won't even run on XP or modern hardware), a rack with outboard gear, a small quiet 10/2 hardware mixer, three monitor systems (great, fair, and real world), XP/Linux dual boot laptop with basic field apps on the XP side and Pd on the Linux side...the main workstation is a 3.4 GHz screamer w/ 1 gig memory and 1 TB HD space running dual 19" monitors and MAudio PCI hardware at all rates and depths...noise (unbalanced) from line in to Reaper is a respectable -85db, nothing I can't clean up to -104db at 0% DC offset with gentle FFT based NR...clean, filtered 20 amp AC...does what I want.
