ok, since I never did this. I feel it is my turn to show my home set up. I never had in the past mainly because the studios I have the privilege of working at are sooo much better and cooler and because frankly I do so much work in my home setup, it always feels like a mess, but recently I moved my home rig to another part of the house and I am kind in transition so I figured this would be a good time to show you guys whats up. I am going to break down the gear I have and the changes I plan on making in the next year. ALSO because of a photo shoot I did people think this is my rig

Below the desk I have a PC mainly because of all the video game music I am doing as I need to test the sounds in PC land.
a behringer ADA8000
a Line 6 FBV for controlling guitar amps in the software realm
on the next wall is a custom Blackburn guitar, this is the ONLY one in existence and it even has crazy custom one off pick ups, this is where the tone from the song "mean" came from

OK so here are the changes i plan on making. I know it may seem odd, but I really try and not have to much gear. So I am getting rid of one stanton deck (because I just don't scratch only sample) the MPC, the guitar amps minus the ones I gig with (I am going software amps for production) I am building a new custom desk, because the current desk SUCKS! I am reworking the acoustics in the room because that sucks as well. Getting a new mac, new acoustic guitar, and acoustic bass and new lead guitar. I am going to go three 24" monitors. And I am getting rid of my keyboards and getting an MPK88. hmm I think that is it. Sorry if I am way late to the party. Thoughts??
