2 lcd's, rack-mount custom pc, adam a7's, nocturn, apc40, 49 midi keys, some acoustic treatment & software.
Cat's in there too.

I like the desk: how it slides the music keyboard under the computer keyboard. Is it something from Ikea, or ?

Yes it is Ikea, Galant iirc. It's modular, so you can keep adding to it.
But i had to modify that keyboard sliding shelf, make it lower, because it was meant for the pc keyboard and didn't have enough height.
Works great like this.

Thanks for the info

Highly recommend the Avantones. Essential in my opinion. They keep my feet on the ground! (mix wise)

I received my new iMac 27 inch i7 8GB Ram and a trackpad today

I need to paint the room now and put in some sound treatment

Great setup Rave! I'm thinking about buying a Euphoinx and I was wondering if you ever try using it with Ableton, or if you use it with another program? I've heard there are problems with it running with Live, and unfortuantly I don't have the room for a Mackie COntrol. I was even considering using the Euphoinx with Logic if that's what I need to do, but I really need a hi-end mixing surface for mixing. So I'm still not sure what to go with.

Thanks. The Euphonix works with live but it is limited to just the faders, pans and transport. Ideally you need a DAW with EUCON support like Cubase, Logic , PT etc... I have cubase too. A lot of people mix their projects in another DAW any how so your options are open

is that why you didn't get the MCControl and just opted for more faders? congrats on the new setup.. that I7 puts my macpro to shame!!

That is correct.

I will be posting benchmarks later once I have set everything up. I am still downloading 8.1.4

Benchmark using 8.1.5 = 10%. I am chuffed to bits with this result. I am can jam happily at low latencies now. Good times

Blew almost all my money on my xones, love them though, being 13 and into music production is sjdkalshd. I'm looking next to either a launchpad or building an arduinome

Wow, you are very lucky to have that gear at such a tender age. Nice one

No kidding, life could be worse!
