no dude its the camara its shit.

Cool pics. Looks like all your equipment is from cash converters you what? most.. well all the roland stuff is from ebay.. the rest.. well the rest is from people and music shops.. though i havnt brought anything for a while from a commercial outlet.. i think it was the mixer the last thing i brought..

ok here is my studio updated... with little facts and things about my equipment.. ========= Technics - RS-TR265 After needing a good tape deck i found this for £15 in a Cash Convertors.. its a tape deck, does the job at hand well. Casio SK-5 Bit of a bargain i think, i found this at a carboot sale for £2, it was in perfect condition as well..top! ATM it's out of action due to dropping it on the floor a number of times in brighton, i snapped the battery wall off so i need to get it fixed.. i been told that you can mod it with a C/v gate so im going to look into that, and get it done, nice 16 bit sampler with either a 3 sec or 6 second sample times and 100 note sequencer. Boss Metal Zone 2 (custom design) I Brought this when it was new out, in arizona for around $50, its a fairly nice distortion pedal, with a 4 band EQ though when hooked up to any of the synths can be very noisy, though i mainly use it on the 606. a few years ago i was bored so i changed the level knob and black taped it up and puched techno into some plastic... so its the techno stomp box.. Zoom 707 GFX 2 I brought this off my friend the day it came out in 2002 for a fraction of the price he paid for it, its a rather simple effects unit, which you can play in real time with the knobs, has all the usual things a GFx has, including a 6 second sampler which is rather alright which has diffrent effects you can do with the sample like slow it down ect..its again usually a bit noisy but thanks to the ZNR it gates most of the noisy noise. Ensoniq ESQ-1 This is my Latest Purchase, i brought this off edmx for £50 and its well worth it, the synth its self is built like a tank and has some pretty cool features, like a 1,000 note sequencer, 3 lfo's 4 envelopes and a vast ammount if editing faculties.. so you can get some crazy sounds from it, makign sounds is pretty easy and there is a compare button which flicks between the original sound and the sound your currantly making.. the only thing wrong with it is there is the high C key is missing (ie inside the machine) and the battery is dead which is only the memory which is effected, so everytime i start it up i have to load sound into it's tape in (though you can store any info on a computer easy enough) all in all i needed a workhorse poly synth and this has proven to be just what i was looking for! well lush. EMU - XBOARD 25 A nice little cheapo midi controller/keyboard, i use this mainly to play in notes into ableton and sometimes depending on my mood or live set up is a mint midi controller, the programe and plug ins it came with was a load of shit i couldnt get them to work and they were usually slow as fuck... eitherway it does what it says on the box. Mackie DFX-12 This is my mixer... i see some people already have this so i wont go on too much about it. it says it was built like a tank, and to some degree it is, but i manged to blow my first one up which i must say i got a replacement with in 3 hours of it blowing up.. so hats of to the mackie guys.. some of the built in effects are pretty alright, you can get a mean sounding 80's kick if you put it though the rev reverb....but yes its a mixer. Boss BR-8 At the tiem i got this it was state of the art with a 100mb zip Disk drive, how cool! now they do this series as small as a cd disk with a cd drive apposed to a well 2001 Zip drive.. i record most of my Serious work and guitar typey tracks with this, has on board fx and all otherkinds of shit like punch in and ou bounce and loop phraser.... i think if i took alot more intrest in this and not jsut use it for a recorder i think it could be a great thing, but as i only do use it for recording i dont think i'll ever get the full potentional out of it.. TR-707 This is my bad boy tr-707 the acid house mainstay, this was the first thing i got after losing a bid on a 606 on ebay in 2003 so i got a tr-707 instead for £100. i think every sound on this machine is superb and i use it as my master sync monster and as much as i can. just recently i found out you can infact copy and paste the patterns which if i knew that before i woulda saved myself about 600 years in programming! TR-606 if the 707 is the acid house mainstay this must be the rave mainstay, depending on the ammount of gain you put on the mixer and the accent volume this can either be a funky badass or a complete monster of a machine. i trigger my 101 from the HT trigger into the Ext Clk In.. lush snares hats and ect; most people probally knows somthing about the 606 so i wont say anything more Zoom RT-123 this is the first ever drumachine i got in 2000 and used it on everything i did for 2 years, really pointy rock kits and some alrighty sounding 808/909 copys but obviously not the real thing.. as wel as 79 drumkits there is a bass seqencer on this as well, some really funyn sounding acid bass as well.. i sued this on a few early acid tracks i did mostly as a 727 type of machine.. when i play live i play on the groove play where all the pads corrisponds as patterns only thing is in groove play its not midi synced (though normal pattern play is) so you have to press the pad when you want it to play.. if you do it correctly on time its tight as.. really pointy and really funny.. TB-303 i think maybe today or so is the 1 year annversary i got this.. and i have used it everyday since i first got it.. edmx showed me some early rap tracks with the 303 in them and it sounds absolutly wicked! rap tracks need more 303 thats for sure! SH-101 I got this a few weeks ago and its absolutly amazing, most of the time its syned from the 606's trigger outs which not only controls the sequencer but syncs the LFO and Random wave forms with the 606. the seqencer is really primitive but at the same time it's well fun to programe in..also sounds wicked with the 101 cv-gated to the 303.. the 101 has grat sounding slides as well.

its about a 5'9 tall celing.. i cant stand striaght and my head just about touches the celing.. i'll take somem ore snaps later on..

this is the basic set up i use most the time..

Shin terai - unison

its broken i dropped it like 500 times when i was in brighton, coz i put it inbetween my rucksak and back and it fell out and the last one cracked the negative battery wall off. i can work with a adapter but soon as you turn it off you loose all the samples, which is rather annoying.

new equipment placings

word, the sub Duer is one of my favourite vst synths its sooo good, i used it alot on the sub album.

i just packed allmy shit away.. maybe i'll take a better picture when i setit up again
