Busily working on a design for my workstaiton / desk for the office / studio remodel.
One of the biggest issues I think we are going to have is the big window in the middle of the exterior wall. Noise from the studio would get to the neighbors house, and likewise, my neighbors college aged kids tend to get noisy which can mess up recording... I am figuring on some of those acoustic foam blocks wedged into the window to reduce sound transfer / act as a baffle...

Works great! Doesn’t even need a powered hub, tho I do use the usb<>lightning<>passthru adapter to keep the battery charged.

my own setup at home is pretty ghetto but this is the setup that we’re using to record demos at rehearsal for the new band I’m in. We’re all spaced pretty far apart here in NC so being able to record has been essential so when we are together at rehearsal we aren’t wasting a ton of time catching up on songs we wrote the previous rehearsals. We’re still learning but it’s sounding very good imo. Might even end up recording the album ourselves and then send it off to be mixed and mastered.
Drums are fully mic’d up.
Microphones on the guitar rigs and running xlr out of my Mesa D-800.

FWIW, the Studio remodel is in progress finally. Everything is pulled out, I have been concentrating on the drywall, and electrical to support the function of the space. At this point I am ready to texture the wall repairs, and start laying the paint down.
The paint is going to be, and I kid you not, "green screen green". As in I took the muslin green screen from my LimoStudio green screen setup to Home Depot to color match, and I am going to lay down the paint soonest possible.
The layout is more or less the same as we showed above, I am swapping a few positions from what I have illustrated here before, but the changes from my old diagrams.
#1. Using full cleat / hanger system for guitar hangers.
#2. Integrating RGBW LED strips on the tops of the guitar hanger cleats such that the cleats conceal the light strips, but allow the light to fire up to the ceiling along the wall... This will be controlled via a Fibaro controller and SmartThings from my phone.
#3. The big window in the outside wall will be covered by as close as possible to the same color green foam acoustic wall tile thingies. This is the help keep my noise in the room, and the neighbors noise OUT of the room...
The plan here is to be able to have 4 in the room at the same time. 1 guitar, 1 drums, 1 bass, 1 keys. We have laid it out and tested already, it works, we won't be running amok, but we WILL be able to do it...
What I don't have figured out is how I am going to integrate my lights, if I am at all, into the studio. I am thinking of attaching them behind the long hangers and firing the light downward to light up the basses and guitars, and maybe put one or two behind the drum throne...

Nice setup!! I have the same audio interface Saffire pro 40.
Here is my "pocket studio". I spend a lot of time in here as I work at home a lot, and when I do this is where I can be found.
Not a lot of expensive gear - much of it was sold off a long time ago. I used to have a ton of outboard gear and synths but they are all but gone. Everything that I have I know really well.
It is a small room (15' x 7'), is reasonably soundproof, has its own ventilation, and sounds pretty good for such a small space (when we finished the walls I thought we would never get the acoustics under control), although there is a 70hz standing wave in the middle of the room.
We have another music room in the house that is used by our teenage daughter, who is becoming a songwriting machine at 14.
Edit: How many string boxes and wrappers can you see? I've been on a string testing binge.

I'll dig through the vaults. But remember, you asked for it!
I used to have wayyyyy more Emu gear. I had all the ROMpulers (Proteus 2000, Audity 2000, XL1, Mo Phat, etc. all Turbo) 3 x E4s (two of them Ultras, the last one is in the rack on the side, above the the S-5000, runs EOS 4.7, and is about to go up on eBay). I bought most of them for next-to-nothing between 2005 - 2009, and they have steadily gained value. I love them. I'm going to keep ESIs as they aren't worth much and they will play my rather large library of EMU instruments. I even have copies of the ROMs that were in the were in the ROM-based instruments. I've owned a ton of Akai samplers, a handful of Ensoniqs, but nothing beats the Emu libraries.
My current studio - new jam room is much smaller than my last one for sure, but surprisingly sounds great. Planning on doing some sort of sound treatment before we get to recording our next album, but the live sounds is actually really warm and dynamic.
The plan is to eventually buy a house and build a proper studio into it - but I also kind of like the randomness of a new room, it kind of makes each recording sound different.
Been out of this game for a while, but I just got my new Scarlett 18i20, so I thought I'd show it off. This is my desk, which will soon move into my practice space, but it's currently in the mess that is our home office. Using Reaper 5.99, and about to make the push to the new version(s).
