[HERESY]

How much would you guess that all that equipment would retail for, combined? (Sounds like a SUPERB all-around setup to me!)

15-25 GRAND NEW. NOW A LOT OF THIS STUFF IS CHEAP SO YOU CAN PROBABLY GET A SIMILAR SET UP FOR 10-15.

THE EXPENSIVE THINGS WERE THE ROLAND,THE PC (CUSTOM MADE),THE AMP FOR THE GUITARS,AND THE KEYBOARD. THE TURNTABLES AND MIXERS COST A LOT ALSO.

WHEN I PURCHASED MY 60 THEY WERE GOING FOR 1500-1900. NOW YOU CAN GET ONE FOR 1200-1400. MY CARDS FOR IT WERE 300 AND 250 A POP. NOW YOU CAN GET EM FOR $199. I MADE THE MAJORITY OF BUYS BETWEEN 2000 AND 2001.

IF I HAD A VOCAL BOOTH I WOULD KNOCK OUT AN ALBUM A MONTH OR START A LABEL.

:H:

 

[eMDe]

heresy

you really think vocal booths are that improtant? That's whats stopping you from starting a label? I use my closet with a few soundproof tactics works nicely for me

 

[JStaxxx]

I just use a normal room. I'm going to pad it up in a minute, but I still get a pretty good sound outta it.

 

[KANSAS CITY ENT]

rippa..

get your apron on, .. i see a lotta time in the kitchen in the future..

 

[HERESY]

@EMDE I DONT HAVE A CLOSET IN THIS ROOM. THE NEAREST ONE WOULD BE THE BATHROOM. I COULD USE THAT BUT IM NOT FEELING IT. ITS GONNA TAKE A LONG TIME TO MAKE ONE (PUT UP THE DOORS AND THE ACOUSTIC FOAM). IM A PERFECTIONIST MAN AND SOMETIMES THATS A *BAD* THING BECAUSE IM TOO HARD ON MYSELF.



IF I HAD THE BOOTH I WOULD GET A NICE CLEAN SOUND (I GET A CLEAN SOUND FROM MY TREATED ROOM BUT ITS NOT THE SAME).

:H:

PS BESIDES NO ONE IS "SERIOUS" AROUND HERE. THEY "TALK" A GOOD GAME.......THATS ABOUT IT......THEY DONT WANNA WORK.

I still have all the dj equipment, 5 disk changer, yamaha eq,receiver and tape deck. the mackie is gone and so are most of my pedals. I have a different pre amp also.

Next week I will become gay like the majority of people who make beats and call themselves producers. I know your asking how can that be....I'll tell you how. I'm going to buy a TRITON and an MPC (the one with 8 audio outs). Equipment that is USELESS and actually has NO place in my setup will be used as EYE CANDY to attract customers.


They want it I'll provide it.
