Brakka Posted January 7, 2003 Share Posted January 7, 2003 Whoa. You should build one of those next. :thu: I've seen similar studio pics before- with custom furniture and expensive gear. Actually, someone here at SSS has a studio that this remided me of. He's also a Euro guy... can't remember who I'm thinking of. :rolleyes: Hey- I was looking at that pic, and to the left of the keyboard on the back wall, there's something that looks like an ashtray. Is that a joint in there? :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mats Olsson. Posted January 7, 2003 Share Posted January 7, 2003 That is Michael Cretu's studio. There's a better view of the console [url=http://www.enigmamusic.com/studio/studio2.html]here[/url] . He has been very successful over the years, Enigma is just one of his many projects. His wife Sandra was also quite successful with tracks like [i]Maria Magdalena[/i] - a huge eurodisco hit. They have a gorgeous [url=http://www.enigmamusic.com/studio/studio8.html]"house"[/url] in Ibiza. BTW, does anyone know how they protect their images from downloading? Right-clicking doesn't seem to work. Strange... /Mats /Mats http://www.lexam.net/peter/carnut/man.gif What do we want? Procrastination! When do we want it? Later!

Philip OKeefe Posted January 7, 2003 Share Posted January 7, 2003 I SUPPOSE that would be cool if you were primarily a composer who did "80 of your work on a keyboard", but having your console "split" like that, to either side, may make it harder to stay in the sweet spot while mixing. Different strokes for different folks - if it works for them, and they're happy, then great. As for me, being out of the sweet spot would drive me nuts.

Joachim P. Dyndale Posted January 7, 2003 Share Posted January 7, 2003 As for the studio... Well, I'll NEVER be able to have a studio like that, so I might as well get used to the idea. As for the house... If I found myself owning such a magnificent house, it would be the best dream I ever had. -Joachim Dyndale -------------------- Einstein: The difference between genius and stupidity is: Genius has limits My Blog...

That image download protection used is actually javascript - you can see it (and get it to use in your pages - they don't mind unless they explicitly say so, because these scripts are all over the internet for free download) by clicking the 'view' menu atop your browser window and sliding down to 'source' then clicking. To easily get the image in IE just save the whole page and the image will be in that pages "_files" folder where you saved it on your hard drive. -- Music has miracle potential -- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lakeside studios Posted January 7, 2003 Share Posted January 7, 2003 Yeah,but what about that poor wretched Zebra?And I thought all you needed for an Enigma recording was a Nellee Hooper drumloop and a half-decent pan-pipe sample..........

That's a long left and right-side stretch even for a long-armed person, as this pic makes clear ... which is why in some sessions my kb sticks out under the console desk on a low stand [my legs under it] and I can reach everything just dandy.

Steve LeBlanc Posted January 7, 2003 Share Posted January 7, 2003 hmm...wouldn't it be smarter to just learn to not need so much programming and spend more time actually playing instruments in your studio? :p http://www.youtube.com/notesleb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks to me like he spends more time PLAYING than programming or mixing. But I know whatchya mean.

I could build a guitar into my chair but who the hell wants to cut tracks at a console anyway? [b]UNLESS[/b] I'm punching in every two bars, quantizing phrases, programming drums that sound like shit or sequencing other stuff, etc. etc. To me that's pre-production...shit you do before you get to the studio...or certainly at least stuff you do before having to tweak your mixer...right? Why anyone would have to go back and forth all the time in practice...well it just seems a silly way to work on creative music. Maybe this could be worth it if you do mostly TV/Film stuff that is all sequence/sample based but then it just seems overkill.

I've downloaded cracked software many times because I want a chance to use it in 'real world' situations -like I would use it if I had the actual product- to see if it really meets my needs. But then I SUPPORT the product by BUYING IT. You have to remember that these companies aren't like Microsoft. If they don't get supported, they WILL go out of business...
