blink_ers: The picture doesn't show up, could you post it again or post the direct link to it?

Thanks

Real studio furniture makes a noticeble difference in appearance from what I can see in blink_ers pix. Looks like a lot of $$ went into it. However, it'd be nice to see a picture that was taken at eye-level (instead of waist-level?) and pointing downwards so we'd see more detail of your equipment choices.

Here's a close up of the mixer.

Remember, its whats in the fingers, not in the silicon that makes the sound.

Can you post an Equipment list?
Also what kind of keyboard is pictured.

Here's a close up of the rack.

Thanx, very impressive! What type of applications do you use the studio for?

I teach and help my students with composing and arranging mostly.

Great - maybe you can teach me something... in your list you mention having a "Tascam CDRW2000 Master Glass CD Burner". WTF? I mean Tascam has a CDRW2000 on it's site but it says nothing about "glass mastering". Glass Mastering is the way that mass-CD houses make audio CD's that will play on any player, unlike CDR's which only play on CDR-compatible players. The laser pits are actually etched into the CD's glass substrate rather than a chemical substrate like a CDR. Is your "Tascam CDRW2000 Master Glass CD Burner" capable of making a true glass-mastered audio CD that'll play on any CD player?
