My Home Studio


Here is some of the stuff I have in my home studio that I use for recording. It is still a work in progress.

Microphones

Behringer B1 Condensor Microphone

Designed especially with home-studio owners and musicians in mind, the B-1 features a 1-inch capsule that captures sounds with incredible realism, sensitivity and accuracy. Its wide frequency response from 20 Hz to 20 kHz is enhanced by a pronounced presence boost, making equalization unnecessary in many cases. Its cardioid polar pattern, switchable high-pass filter and -10 dB pad, SPL of 148 dB and unusually low inherent noise make it perfect for close miking and extremely flexible. The B1 comes with a carrying case, shock mount and windscreen.

 

Nady SP1 Microphone

The SP1 represents today's excellent cutting edge in price/performance value for vocal and instrument dynamic microphones. It offers high-quality rugged construction and excellent reliability, and superior performance to that of some of the best known, most popular classic microphones – and at a fraction of their cost.

 

Signal Processors

Behringer DSP20024P Virtualizer Pro

The Behringer DSP2024P Virtualizer Pro offers 71 breathtaking new algorithms, most in true stereo. Wave-adaptive Virtual Room reverb; awesome modulation; dynamic, psychoacoustic, and EQ algorithms; plus innovative amp simulation, distortion, and special effects make this a mind-blowing effects processor never before seen in this price range. 11 effect combinations with selectable serial/parallel configuration and up to 7 adjustable parameters plus 2-band EQ per effect provide precision control. 24-bit A/D/A converters with 64/128X oversampling, true stereo processing, and 24-bit internal processing offer studio-quality sound.
 

Behringer MIC200 Tube Ultra Gain Preamp

The Behringer Tube Ultragain MIC200 Mic Preamp is a vacuum tube preamplifier with preamp-modeling technology and an integrated limiter. It's perfect for studio, live, and hard-disk recording applications. Preamp modeling allows you to quickly optimize your recordings by choosing from 16 voicings for vocals, acoustic and electric guitars, bass, keyboards, drums, and more. The 12AX7 vacuum tube provides warmth and low-noise operation. Includes a phase reverse switch, +48V phantom power, and 20dB pad. 1/4" TRS and gold-plated XLR connectors give the Behringer Tube Ultragain superior balanced I/O.

 

Mixers

Behringer Eurorack UB802 Mixer

The Behringer Eurorack UB802 features 2 INVISIBLE MIC PREAMPs (IMPs), 6 balanced high-headroom line inputs, 1 post fader FX send per channel for external FX devices and 1 stereo aux return for FX applications or as separate stereo input. There is also an effective, extremely musical 3-band EQ on all channels. The UB802 is well-suited for use with fixed audio and video installations as well as keyboards, samplers and computer application.

 

Audio Interfaces

Lexicon Alpha USB Audio Interface

The Lexicon Alpha USB Audio Interface is a portable desktop recording studio. It offers a 2x2x2 USB I/O mixer which is powered directly from the USB bus. You can be connected to the XLR inputs and the 1/4" balanced line inputs at all times while controlling input levels and monitoring from the front panel. The front panel also offers a Hi-Z instrument input and a 1/8" headphone amplifier output suitable for all headphone types.
 

Behringer U-CONTROL USA202

With the ultra-compact, bus-powered Behringer U-CONTROL USA202 interface, you can link your Windows or Mac computer with any audio gear. There is no setup or special driver needed. Plug the interface into an available USB port on your computer and you're all set. The UCA202 provides 2 analog inputs and outputs, as well as an additional S/PDIF optical output for direct digital conversion. The stereo headphone output with dedicated level control lets you monitor both input and output.

Audio Monitors

Technics RPF-880 Pro Monitor Headphones - Limited Edition

The large-calibre driver units (50mm), excellent frequency response of 5Hz to 30kHz and a sensitivity of 105dB/mW deliver an open, uncoloured sound that is required for studio monitoring. The comfortable cloth ear-pads and free adjusting headband make these easy to use over extended periods. The mid-range is natural and expressive, creating precise imaging, especially with vocal performances.
 

Yamaha RH3C Professional Stereo Headphones

The Yamaha RH3C Professional Stereo Headphones were developed for studio or road applications, and boast the impressive bass presence and clear treble response studio musicians demand. The closed-ear, noise-reducing design features a coiled cord and a thickly padded, collapsible headset band for lasting comfort and portability.
