About 10 months of daily work finally came to an end last night! I am relieved that I can finally move on to other projects now because this one was a whopper. I built everything out of wood, from the built in shelves, to the turntable console, to the oak support structures after I knocked down that wall. I actually had to knock down a chimney to make room for this expansion earlier this summer so it was truly a labor of love.
Here is the before picture...
Before Pic CD Wall (This CD rack furthest from view is now gone(far left))
Here's the expanded area (built-in shelves on all walls, built-in table top for beer chiller, oak QRD Diffusor above the fridge built from scratch (I'll put plans online later), my Klingon knife is above the vent in case someone tries to steal my wax and they somehow got past the Duke, my old school HH is on the right, my modern day HH is on the left)
My DWG Old School 12" poster, art print, 7" Hip Hop pic discs displayed, built in TIX dot-clock so you have to think to know what time it is in the lower left. (Sometimes I don't wanna know what time it is!)
Alesis Studio Monitors on wooden floor stand next to their speaker stands (for producing or mixing I prop these monitors on the stands for a truer sound controlled by a speaker switch under the console using my Alesis amp)
Hidden keyboard and mouse drawer pulled out for my music workstation When I'm listening or mixing the hinged drawer is under the console, but when I need to record or produce or just get online it hinges outward and down and latches in place. I use primarily Sony Acid and Sound Forge software for music production. The soundcard on my workstation output goes in the third channel on my mixer and the booth output on the mixer goes into my soundcard input for ease of recording and digital monitoring.
That is fucking awesome. Great job on the studio !!! Seeing all those CDs make me a little sad .. Had to sell all of mine when we moved back to TN . Times were hard .. Enough feeling sorry for myself . I am very impressed with the work. Good stuff homie.
