Really want to either make or get some wooden sides for the apc and maschine mikro now.

Damn, those VU meters on the Akai interface are pretty!!

Look even better when there lit up, and nice feature when your clipping is that they glow red. Its a top notch little interface, built like a tank too.

what is the x1's purpose on the production desk? just curious :)

Well the X1 was originally used in my DJ setup, but after going to straight vinyl had no use for it, now it gets plenty of use in ableton with effects, although need to learn how to map it properly.

Until I get a decent controller the X1 has its uses.

oh. never thought of it that way.

Yeah it works quite well, yet to figure out how to map the buttons properly.

New pic update in the original post.

What is the dj setup connected to(Speakers)? And how do the rokkit 5 sound because I'm considering of buying them.

Very nice mate... really nice little play-den! Getting lots of use out of the Expedits, I see.

22 is a cracking little bit of kit as well. Hit me up if you want a 42 ;)

Haha, yeah expedits are pretty handy, slowly filling them up. When I've filled the big one with vinyl I'll be happy.

Love the 22, and I would love a 42, but the 22 will do for now :)

That is indeed a pretty great setup..?

The DJ setup goes through the rokits, personally I think the rokits are ok, not great, there next on the upgrade list.

They're not the flattest of speakers, really big hump in the bass which is really misleading, and not that forward in the tops, again which is pretty misleading. But they work well when DJing.

Thanks Renato.

digging in mate!

Another shot of my room, most of my vinyl on show.

With all you appear to buy, that's all the vinyl you have? ;)

Love the setup man. I need a production desk. First, I need a place with more space...

There's three more full cubes on the big one, and I've sold quite a few old bits over the past few weeks, and I only got back into to buying vinyl bout a year and a half ago, so what you see is what I've bought over that time really.

Yeah lucky that the mrs let me use the room, great place to escape to.

You sir, sound like you have a very understanding Mrs. That's a good thing bro! ;) Kudos!

love the atmosphere in the picture a lot.. very cool setup..

Yeah eventually I do want a rotary, but probably either a Condesa or one of the other tabletop rotary's, just gotta save the money up.

Really jonesing for a Tanzibar from MFB. That 522 is looking nice in there, but...it's getting a bit cramped! ;)

Yeah I'd love Tanzbar, though the 522 is impressive, sequenced from machine, it makes for a pretty good workflow, and seriously the kick on it is lethal.

Yeah next on things to do list, is to build a bigger desk.
