Really looks great. Nice to see the Oram mixer. Sleeper gear, IMHO. He took a lot of grief over at GS. I've had several of his pieces over the years, still have a Hi-Def 35 EQ & a stereo comp.

Can you still get them?

More pics. Almost all patched up but missing one of my Dsub snakes and the last cabling was the inputs on the HD16  On another note I think Im going to have to return the HD 16X16 because the fan noise is too much in my room. Might be forced to go the Burl Mothership route or either a Lynx Aurora (need 16 outs.) Any Suggestions??? I have the Avid Native Thunderbolt box for HD. Also the rack with the mixer rings and is unacceptable...I will probably sell the mixer anyway as it is overkill. Focals have been playing music for a couple of days and are starting to loosen up which is causing them to tighten up  Room is sounding great!!!! Hey dandeurloo there is an empty space in the compressor rack!!!!! Here's some more pics...      |

New Desk installed now comes racking and patching up equipment. Ric - nice build. <thumbsup> I'm enjoying the pics, as I'm about to undertake a ground up build for a new studio. Hey, I have that EXACT desk while my console is in storage. One tip if you care.... No matter what chair I used, the ergos of that thing destroyed my hands and wrists and R shoulder over 6 months when using a trackball - and before that desk - I never had a problem for 20 years. Take the wheels off if you haven't already to lower it. That helped me tremendously as it was lower, but unfortunately, the damage was already done cause I was too stupid to do something quickly.... Hopefully they will get better soon. And speaking of better - good luck with the voice. Very scary thing... Cheers, bp |

Holy Cow Ric, that's really wonderful. I dream of something like this one day.
If I may, I have one very small suggestion, I think you would love the effect of light fixtures that hug the ceiling instead of hang down. Especially with 8' ceilings you'll get a much more dramatic feeling, and it will absolutely make the ceiling feel higher, I promise.
Can't wait to hear some of the first tracks.

I actually bought that drum throne because it was hydraulic and lifted up higher (it's quiet to.) Thanks for the advice man...Ric |

So Im going console only and returning the Phoenix Nicerizer Jr. Nice sounding but I just prefer the flow of the console, plus this console sounds great...really a bargain and Im going to trade up to the 16 channel. wiz or anyone else interested in the 8 channel...will let it go for a good price. |
