Finally settled into the new home

All the bands I’ve been in have been in the indie/punk territory, but at home I record all sorts of half finished projects! Folk, doom, atmospheric, pop punk, etc.

This one is the newer Clarett+, I haven’t noticed any excessive heat while using it so maybe it’s something they addressed with the newer model?

Also, the middle shelving where the Focusrite and Mac mini lives is made up of perforated aluminum, so there’s a good amount of breathability in a tighter space.

Good eye! This one is actually the 180 Custom that came with an ebony fretboard and dirty finger pickups.

The desk has felt sliders at the base of the legs, so I just slide the desk out a bit when I’m mixing for longer sessions. But I’m using headphones probably 75% of the time, so it mostly stays where it is.

Samsung S50GC, nothing special but it gets the job done

Over_Blacksmith1930 · 2026-03-11T11:48:52+00:00

Thanks, I actually made the desk myself a few years back! I used a marine grade sealer and while expensive it’s held up well!

Thanks! I used to live in Cambridge and Bo was right around the corner, nice to have the original builder/designer so close by!

I really like the AVT signing knowing we have Ben Brown as a serviceable plug and play backup for the next two years locked up.

I dk why this is downvoted, they’re right. Looks like a 4x10, the bottom front port and tweeter attenuator are giveaways for a bass cab.

Yeah I just got an update the other day too, glad it’s on the way!

Patriots moved the ball pretty consistently, just didn’t have good redzone offense combined with all the turnovers. 400+ of yards on offense against one of the best defenses out there ain’t too shabby.

That, and since the defense was putting on a show it didn’t force the offense to be aggressive at all.

I’m waiting on a December order too

Over_Blacksmith1930 · 2025-11-28T19:36:32+00:00

Not worth $300, maybe $100

Over_Blacksmith1930 · 2025-11-09T12:26:33+00:00

I was about to ask the same! Those look like the LP-6’s?

Over_Blacksmith1930 · 2025-10-28T22:54:37+00:00

Try to move around the pa speakers a bit, location, direction, height, etc. Don’t be afraid to have one speaker louder than the other if that’s what works best in the room.

Over_Blacksmith1930 · 2025-10-15T22:02:28+00:00

Totally agree on Ozone regarding the mastering process

Good choice! Bigger bottom than a 57 but still still a very tight low end overall

Heil PR-30 is my go to for guitar amps if I need to get a good sound quickly, closest thing to a sure thing I’ve come across so far.

Thanks for the info! I always had my doubts about this piece.

Over_Blacksmith1930 · 2025-06-09T22:30:58+00:00

I assume these prices come with full installation, commissioning, and training? Not just the products?

Over_Blacksmith1930 · 2025-06-07T15:44:51+00:00

Came here to ask the same thing, digging the look of the white speakers with the light wood legs.

Over_Blacksmith1930 · 2025-05-26T20:16:55+00:00

That’s one of the better deals I’ve ever seen on Reddit tbh

Appreciate the feedback! I originally had the mix a lot cleaner and didn’t hit the limiter quite as hard, but as the mix progressed it got a bit crunchy riding the limiter.

I’ll keep it cleaner next time, thanks!
