Studio Set Up
Bought a load of gear and don't know what to do with it...
Have you got Cubase, Logic, Digital Performer, Pro Tools or Reason and you can't get the whole thing to
work... Whatever the software package or hardware configuration I can help you.
I can help you set up your studio whether you just have a PC/MAC and
midi keyboard, or if you have a mixing desk, hard disk recorder and loads of
midi sound modules.
Once you have gone out and spent loads of money on your equipment it's
important that you have your system set up the best way for you. There is no
"right or wrong way" to set a music system up, every set up is
individual. I'll help you get the best for you, the way you work.
I'll help with
troubleshooting if you are having issues with pieces of kit that apparently
aren't working properly. (Please note I do not repair kit).
Why spend days setting it
up and trying to understand the manuals when I can get you started in a fraction
of the time.

Copyright Ross Rayner-Brown and Pro Music International Ltd. With
me sitting at the controls using Logic Pro 7 and a Yamaha DM2000 desk. I
was involved in some of the building and also the installation and set up of the
desk and the other related equipment (see the first reference under
"Examples" below). This is one of 3 control rooms (with identical
set-ups) around the Live room, which you can see through the doors straight
ahead of me. Also, there are 3 video editing
suites which were built at the same time. Examples Full
multiple studio set up including Yamaha DM2000 with MOTU 828, MOTU Midi express,
G5 (running Logic Pro 7, Nuendo etc.) and full Genelec 5.1 surround sound
system. G5,
running Logic Pro 7, with M-Audio Firewire solo. PC
running Cubase SX3 with 3 * MOTU 828 and Yamaha 02R96 via ADAT. PC,
running Cubase SL3 and Reason, with Delta 1010 into a Yamaha MG24/4 with Fostex
PM-1s. Using the Groups and Aux. sends on the desk to record different
instruments or vocals simultaneously. Mac
G3, running Cubase VST 4.1, with Midisport 8 x 8, Mackie 24/8, 2 Yamaha Hard
disk recorders, various sound modules, 3 different Joe Meek compressors, 3
different Reverb units, Antares auto-tune (outboard) and TC helicon outboard
vocal processor amongst others. I
have helped people with their systems from the simplest set up, computer with
interface, to the complicated, 32 channel 8 group desk with multiple outboard
set up. Whatever
you have it needs individual attention. I can help you get the most out of what
you are trying to achieve. Call
me to get help now. |
