STUDIO
I
currently run the studio at my parents house in NY, usually only in the summers when I'm home, in the next 6 months or so, I'm planning to find a semi-permanent location for a new studio, as well as experiencing a major gear facelift. During the year in Boston, I am also able to do somewhat portable recording, and mixing. I tend to work in the box for most of my mixing, and some recording. However, if I'm producing a larger project, I prefer to do larger format tracking at an outside studio, and do overdubs/mixing at my facilities. I also prefer people bring their own recording media.
This is as complete a list of gear as I can come up with at the moment:
Note: there will be a major upgrade coming in the next few months.
Also, the studio at the house in NY has a small live room/control room setup and both rooms use Auralex acoustic treatments, including the HoverDeck drum riser.
