ADRStudio.com I/O Setup - Audio Midi Video
Although it is a sophisticated home project digital studio designed to compose and arrange music as well to research and study sound engineering, it is a low budget studio.
Carefully analyzing all equipment available which matches my budget, new and vintage equipment, I choose the one that have best sound, more resources and is more flexible about connectivity. I never buy something that just do this and connect to that, exception to interfaces and switches, of course.
It was possible to design a full digital project studio. MIDI automated (except mixers), everything can be routed to any patch and any equipment can work as digital or analog. And I just need to turn on what I need for a specific job or when I just want to play around.
Some "organs of this organism" are, what they call, "Swiss knives" of musical and studio equipment: TC- Helicon VoiceworksPlus vocal processor, the classic ALESIS QSR Synth, the magical Behringer DEQ-2496, Roland M-1000 digital mixer and audio computer interface, TASCAM 2488 Neo 24 tracks digital recorder , BOSS SE-70 multi-effects. All described below.
The sound is monitored by a pair of Alesis Monitor One MKII speakers powered by a CROWN D-75 amplifier.
Also important are the classic Roland SC-50 GS/GM synth, the Yamaha QY-70 Midi XG/GM Workstation.
The accessories and interfaces are: Alesis AI-1, Motu Timepiece AV, Behringer MON800 mixer/switch, S/PDIF selectors and switches.
I use a M-AUDIO Axiom 61 as main Midi Controller, Fender Squire Strat Guitar, Ibanez Nylon Guitar and MXL V63M and AKG D2300S mics.
Alesis QSR
A 64 voyce 16 parts synth, fully programable and spandable, has a build in Alesis Quadraverb 4 channel multi-effect. Has 4 channel 48 kHz/16 bits ADAT and 4 channel analog outputs.
Behringer DEQ2496
It is a mastering machine with a 61 Band RTA, 31 band GEQ, 10 band PEQ, 3 DEQ, WIDTH (stereo image processor), DYN, Compressor/Expander and Limiter with 96kHz and 24 bits processing. It is also a A/D D/A converter and is also full digital with S/PDIF (optical or coaxial) and AES/EBU I/O and has a Optical/Coaxial/Analog input switch. With the DEQ-2496 the dream came true !
Roland M-1000 digital Mixer
It has 4 digital and 1 analog inputs, and 3 analog and 3 digital outputs. It is a mixer with 96kHz/24Bits processing, A/D D/C converter, sample rate converter, and with USB I/O it is high definition computer Audio Interface. One of its input can be selected between Optical/Coaxial.
TASCAM 2488 Neo
24 Tracks 24 Bits digital recorder, 32 Tracks Mixdown, 8 inputs, digital I/O, 160 Gbytes Hard Disk, CD Burner, USB connection. 24 EQs, 250 Virtual tracks, on board effects,, mastering tools, and so.
Boss SE-70 Pro
The best ALL-in-one effect processor. I mean ALL. Roland sell it for just few months (after SE-50) and stopped, they might had discovered that it does to much for a single product (I mean, like a mistake). It process with 48/32 kHz 16 Bits, but only analog I/O. It is automated with SYS-EX . Read more about using SYSX or SYSEX with SE70.
Roland SC-50
The classic Sound Canvas. Careful tuned up with SYSEX messages, it generates personals and specials timbres. It has a extra MIDI input.
Alesis AI-1
It is a digital format and/or sample rate converter and switcher. Converts 48 to 41 or 41 to 48 kHz and convert ADAT to S/PDIF or AES/EBU or vice versa. I use it to split the ADAT from QSR to S/PDIF and as a switcher. It works with and convert any input to 16 bits.
M-AUDIO AXIOM 61
This touch sensitive 61 keys keyboard has a lot of controls including 8 drums/sampler pads.
Fender Squire Strat
Not a Stratocaster, but works with the same precision and gives me nice nice sounds.
Computer: Compaq Pesario
Pentium 2.66, 1 GB memory, HD 120+160 GBytes
Software: Sonar, Sound Forge, Vegas, DVD Architect, Vienna, AWAVE, others tools
Video Card: ATI RADEOM with S-Video in/out
Computer Sound Card: SB Live which I use only the digital out.
