Does this thread already exist? I didn’t find one. Anyway I was reading through @Jonathan’s thread about his studio, which is more of a home turned into a studio than a home studio, haha, but I also noticed @feaker’s post with a picture of his set up, and it got me thinking that I’d love to see where you all work! Plus I just had my wife take a picture of me working on a song a few nights ago, so that I could someday look back and be grateful for whatever studio space I have.
I haven’t lived in the same place for more than 2 years since I left for college. My set up right now literally looks kind of like this.
Then I go downstairs to actually do recordings in my sweet vocal booth. (Hey it sounds WAY better than it did in just the plain old room. And it was cheap.)
I used to have everything downstairs which was a lot easier, but I only have one computer and didn’t want to be downstairs all the time (it’s just unpleasant) when I was working, so I moved like half of my setup upstairs and am left with this painful hybrid. We’re moving soon.
And this is what my office/studio looked like at the condo we were renting before we moved here.
did you build that vocal booth or bought one? I have seen a few of those prebuilt and they do work decently well for recording dry vocals.
Are those moving blankets on them?
I got the idea from seeing other people do similar things on YouTube. It deadens the space considerably. I did a comparison with some old vocals when I first set it up, and the difference in quality was awesome.
Advance to the 21 minute mark, and the following 7 min or so has me describing my setup with some video walking around the room, showing the treatment, workstation, guitar closet, etc. The downside is you have to listen to me prattle on…
@Chordwainer Dave had some pictures of his…I can’t remember the thread though. Maybe if someone finds the last thread like this we can merge the older one into this one. Great thread topic though! Thanks @Cristina!
