...A home studio and creative outlet. I will explore different setups, hardware, software, and review anything I find that I like. Almost everything heard on my recordings will be digital, from the guitar amps to the drums, from the strings to the compressors, all with both musical taste and price point in mind. I intend to help others and document my work with setting up a studio on a budget. What's best about this is that anyone can do it with a little know how and time. Not including the computer and the guitar, it is possible these days to make your own recordings for as little as a few hundred dollars. This is my attempt to do just that. The goal is to create amateur but realistic recordings from software for as little out of pocket expense as possible. So, feel free to comment and ask questions. I'm doing this as much for the community of home studio enthusiasts as I am for myself as a way to express my creativity. I'm not sure I'm looking for cutting edge - just good sounding songs that might put a smile on your face or make you want to drive a little faster in traffic. I hope you enjoy.

The History and Future of Amp Modeling

http://projectk2r4.com/2012/01/06/the-history-and-future-of-amp-modeling/

This is an exceptional read.  Guitar Amp Vs Simulation in a nutshell.  I think anyone who doesn't like the simulation side of the story can still argue some of these points.  But it's still a debate until it becomes the norm....and it will.  Well said Sir!

Studio Pics

Just for the fun of it I thought I might post some pics of the studio.  HAHA, not much I know.....




Yes, the keyboard is junk and I do use monitors that are straight out of a 1979 Radio Shack catalog....They sound fantastic.  I produce everything on this site from this setup and I'm fairly happy the way budget sounds these days.  Sorry, no pics of the $200k sound proofing job (comfy couch) behind the camera, the wall of guitars and amps (the Les Paul), the vocal both (closet), or drum room (actually it's still in the process of renovation, I've not yet completed the update to SSD 4.0).
