    Any music producers here?

    I read a lot of threads here about users with your typical gaming and theatre audio setups, but I'm wondering if anyone here uses pro audio products like M-Audio, MOTU or E-Mu.

    If so, what do you have hooked up to it?
    Any studio pics?
    What kind of music do you make?
    What software do you use?
    Can we have a listen?

    As you can see in my sig, I use an M-Audio Delta 1010. I've had it for over 6 years now, and it's sound quality has been exemplary, has really delivered the goods and more than paid for itself (I got it 2nd hand too).

    A as for what's hooked up to it, picture speaks a thousand words :


    What you see running there is Renoise, a great bit of software which I use to write a variety of music with, although I lean towards D&B most of the time

    Hope to hear from more of you

    Hehe, I'm a lefty (one of the good ones) :p

    The mixer is a Behringer MX2642A - pretty cheap and cheerful and is starting to show signs of ageing, but it has served me well for nearly 10 years now. I do think when the need to upgrade it arrives I'll probably go for a more reputable brand.

    p.s. to the left of the picture, I have a pair of SL1210 MK5's and an Allen & Heath Xone 32. I also now have my trusty old 'towered' amiga setup so I can play al my old games and tunes

    Hi. Yep, I use my machine doing music and post-production.

    It's a Lynx TWO-B PCI card that does audio in/out duties (2in/6out). It's an awesome card for the money. Great ADA conversion and low latency.

    For monitoring I have ty KRK Rokit 8's which I don't care for that much, but for critical listening I use my AKG 501 open back headphones. They're fed through a Grace m902 headphone amplifier. The sound is super clean and uncolored.

    I've got an M-Audio Axiom 61 that I use occasionally, and the software I run is Nuendo 4.3 as the DAW with some Native Instruments stuff plus a couple of UAD cards, one "1" and a "2 Quad". I've got some Neve plugs and some other goodies.

    At work I run a Mac (sorry) Pro dual quad with ProTools HD Accel 2 and a bunch of crap thrown into it. Genelec monitors and a bunch of outboard. But I suppose the home setup was more what you were looking for....

    Don't have any pics right now. I'll see if I can dig up some tracks perhaps...

    I mostly do my work in the studio on ProTools, but occasionally I dabble around at home as well. I do mostly post-production for a living, but my heart's in music - any music, as long as it's good.

    Good for you man! That's a very healthy way of looking at it. You seem happy with your workstation and you get stuff done on it - Great!
