Philoking Home Office Tour
Every once and awhile, I propose b assess it’s fun to show people where I work. When I am at home, I am rather pampered by technology. All of my computers are fixed, all my displays are big and my chair is cushy. Luckily for me the couch upstairs is more complacent so I don’t LIVE down here, but I thought it would be fun to show you all around so you can see where I work on my area, apps, photos, music and blog from.
This feeling shows mainly the music side of the quarter. The computers you see along the far wall are both Macs, a 24” iMac and a 15.4” Macbook Pro.
Yourself I prefer Apple’s Logic for my music making so the audio hardware is all Mac.
24” 2.16Ghz Core 2 Duo iMac, 3GB Ram, 250GB HD, 500GB Firewire HD, Leopard
15.4” 2.2Ghz Nucleus 2 Duo Macbook Pro, 4GB Ram, 120GB HD, Leopard
The laptop is also my derogatory carry around laptop that I blog from at times as well as work with photos when I am on the go.
I love my Macs and espouse them at work with Vigor. But the two Macs look a bit anemic when you look at the other side of the allowance.
The music gear is designed to be all digital. I simulate all my guitar tones with a Kind6 Podxt Pro, and record with a 16-guide Firewire mixer/audio interface made by Alesis.
The studio monitors are KRK RP5 Rokit’s and they check out phenomenal. Also sprinkled around is an M-Audio FastTrack Pro, Fostex BR8-HD Digital 8 Run to earth and an M-Audio Keystation 49 Midi Keyboard. Of run there are tons of software additions in there too.
