Here are some photos of my home studio.  I have been working on this studio for years, and the quality of results is amazing. 


Here it sits innocuously in my apartment... The key components:   Pentium 4 2 GHz PC, Cakewalk, Cubase, Sound Forge, Mackie 1202 Mixer, Event 20/20 Monitors, Yamaha CS1X keyboard, Roland GR-30 guitar synth, 2 Ibanez electric guitars (one w/ MIDI pickup), Taylor 714ce acoustic guitar,  TC Electronic chorus pedal, Alesis Nanoverb/compressor, Lexicon JamMan, ART SGX2000, Korg Pandora's Box...

My Studio 


Here is my "rack" of effects.  I have a very cool rack storage/carrying case that is very portable and sturdy.  You see the Alesis Nanoverb and Nanocompressor on top.  These are for adding subtle reverb and brightening effects.  Next down is the Lexicon JamMan--an amazing tool for practice and creativity.  It lets you loop 32 seconds of audio continuously and then solo over or add more loops.  Finally, the ART SGX2000 is a powerful effects unit with hundreds of effects and presets for guitar, drums, etc.  Not in the picture, but sitting above, is the Mackie 1202 Mixer--the heart of the operation where all signals are mixed down to one fat stereo signal into my PC (which has an awesome Card D+ sound card).

The Rack


Here is the Yamaha CS1X keyboard, and Ibanez guitar w/ MIDI pickup.   An amazing combo, you never thought you could get sounds like this out of a guitar!   The CS1X is a legendary keyboard already, with many techno producers and artists owning one or more of these babies.
