What's on your studio shopping list?

Post by wub » Tue Nov 30, 2010 9:14 am

Different from the gear you wish you owned thread, this is stuff that you're practically looking to get within the near future. Mine currently stands at;

- Massive (which should arrive by the end of the week)

- Ikea computer tower unit (already have one, I just need a matching one to balance out my desk, but they don't sell them anymore so need to go 2nd hand)

- Widescreen monitor (http://www.ebuyer.com/product/158568) once I've got the 2nd tower unit and can spread stuff out

- Cassette recorder (which I may be getting for free off a mate) to bounce out and bounce back loops

new audio interface. I want to get the EMU 0404 USB. I have a lexicon alpha and it sucks....hard. it can't record higher than 16-bit, the preamps are weak as fuck, and it's USB 1 so data rate sucks. Also want to upgrade the mic.

That because you're scaling back the DJing, or going fully digital?

Got as much as i need studio wise atm, but looking into buying a shed for my studio, does that count ;)?

Need about 4 grand (of which i have about 1g haha) to build and kit out a studio shed with a live room and control room aswell as complete treatment for the whole thing. big project but should be wicked in the end, also planning on making it 'pack-down-able' so i can move it to my new house when i move.

so yeah,

need lots of room treatment, alot of wood and lots of man hours...

- Just bought a desk.
- JBL speaker setup will be here end of the week, latest early next week. (shit is about to get serious.)
- Looking at getting a little trackpad for my mac (I love working with trackpads rather than mice).
- Also looking at getting either a moog slim phatty or a novation ultranova. Leaning towards the moog for the analog sound :D

Erebus - VERY cool idea :D

I have a dedicated room atm :D

Not requiring that much. I would just love some time to use what I have now and a fresh sack of greens. I want an iPad and Serato but neither are necessities. One of these days I'll get around to getting a consensor but I have mics that I don't use often as it is.

Eh...I could really some great house samples. Clean drum hits and wet snaredrums and perc. That's about all I need atm, I guess.

Everything else that I want is way out of my budget, and not necessarily necessary

If you'd like a cheaper alternative to Vengeance, I recommend DMS;

I've been using their Electro House kits as stock sounds for about 18months now.

1. Second monitor.
2. Some room treatment
3. Virus ti polar
4. Decent fw soundcard

Problem is I also need a new car and some decks/mixer(new 1210's are stupidly expensive).
