Here's a couple pics of my little home office:

Nick nice equipment, but did you realize your two wall clocks are not in sync?

I noticed the same thing but since the minute hands are in sync I just assumed he is setup for multiple time zones?

I figured it's like me with my computer equipment, multiple monitors etc, and I have a steel office chair from the late 1970's.

Hey Max, Nice CPU. I have the same thing. Dual built in graphics card is still working fine, although quite dated now, even under Xpress Pro HD 5.1.x.

Thanks guys. :)
Yup, through PixelCorps, I do a lot of work with folks all over the world. Even the last little "fun" project I did involved people from 9 states and 5 countries (we froze Rio (http://www.jushhome.com/pxc/TEAMRIO_FXWARS_960x540_sor3.mov)).

As a group, deadlines, meetings, etc. are standardized on GMT (top clock). The lower clock is local time for me. :)
Thanks again.

Steve,

Do you like the Digital Juice products? They are on my wish list.

Steve

Wow, it's been three years since you posted this. I'm new on the forum and am going through the different threads and felt like responding to this one.

I really like Digital Juice products myself. I've mostly used their Jump Backs and Royalty Free music, Stack Tracks are great.

I used to work with Rick Green and the boys from Digital Juice years ago. He was working at WCMH-TV 4, an NBC OnO where I was an Engineer. He also works for a place here in Columbus, Ohio called The Power Plant, a post production facility.

I haven't talked to him in a while but he does good stuff and is a genuinly nice guy, as is the rest of his staff. He's really busy these days and hard to catch sometimes, but a nice guy.

New office, curtains going up soon.

Here is my setup... I also have 3 high-end web servers in my network closet set up for network rendering. I got over 1TB of disk space between all the computers.



Update:
I now have a HTPC so i can use that to watch videos. Before i had to burn it to dvd to preview. I also have a LCD screen for watching tv at my desk.

Another addition is the DVX100B & vegas video 6 + dvd

Sony PVM20M4U

They aren't made any more, but come up often enought on ebay.

Fantastic monitor, great for color correction work.

Best regards.

Woah Matt, slick set up you have there. I see you have ProTools Digi 002 too!

I enjoyed viewing the various set-ups. Here is a link to my workstation.

Please tell us that it doesn't stay that neat, :}

Do you really think I am going to take a picture without cleaning up first? lol. I try to keep things in order. In fact, my idol was Lt. Castille (Edward James Olmos) from Miami Vice. A desk with just a telphone on it..... ah...one can dream.

My dream would be having a desk where I CAN find the telephone. But seriously, that desk is nice and clean.

Here's my setup - a little messy, but it works.

Pardon the heart in the picture... It was a gift from the wife.

rey, what audio ref monitors are you using? im in the market to get a pair.

I'm using the Maudio BX5's. They went on sale for $100 about a year ago. They may have been replaced with a current model by now. The original price was $300 before the sale. They're great for editing audio, sound effects and writing music for video.

I'll be late to my own funeral. Anyway, here's the studio:

LOL, we have the same microwave.

LOL, we have the same microwave.

Kinda awkward? No?

how do you do that..

in regards to Loren Millers

he took multiple pictures and stitched them together. quicktime just enables viewers to pan/zoomin&out of the stitched up pictures =).

sorry to get off topic..

but how do u put it in QT?

Dean,

You can google Quicktime VRML.

here are some resources from me googling:

This is my current setup...the usual multimonitor deal...

Twin 17" LG 1720P's on each side of my Macbook Pro...the left one as a second monitor on my mac, the right one hooked up to my PC, which I only use as a media center to stream video to my TV

FX1 and audio gear hiding in the right corner, with harddrives, DVD burners and gigabit switches hiding in the left corner, not pictured is my D200, which happened to be in my hands during this photo, lol!

noah.. where did u get that ergo chair

thanks yi

I actually got the Aeron for free...

My dad works for Knoll (one of Herman Miller's big competitors) and somehow he got a hold of it for free because of a slight defect (one of the wheels is bent a little) my tabletop is Knoll, as is the cable management system under the desk. It definately pays to know the right people. I unfortuantly couldnt get a hold of nicer table legs so I got the table legs from IKEA for $25... :)

You should be able to order the chair directly from hermanmiller.com
They have an MSRP of about $800 (for the model I have) but can get them as low as $550. I'd absolutely say their worth every penny, one of the best chairs I've ever used. (also happens to be in almost every "behind-the-scenes" special I've seen, as well as several commercials and movies)

Old thread I know but that was pretty cool checking out other peoples setup, I would like to see more. Keep posting.

Here is ours, Mac Pro dual boot XP running FCP / PPRO2, and Multibridge for HD monitoring.

Daniel, that is some sweet setup you got there! I'm guessing you don't have any children. :)

Thanks and yes, I have kids too.

That's my setup at the office, I could not afford something like that at home and considering it's where I spend most of my time anyway... I'm not sure I would want one at the house. ;)

Here is mine.

Mac Pro 2.66GHz Dual-Core Intel Zeon with 3GB RAM and 4 intenal hard drives, 1 x 250GB and 3 x 500GB Enterprise WD drives. Final Cut Studio suite with Logic Pro 7. JVC CRT grading monitor, Mackie mixer, external LaCie 500GB FireWire hard drive, Apple 23" HD Cinema display, Altec sub and speaker system. Beyer mic for voice-over and JVC HDV deck for ingest.

Second system is made up of a Mac Mini 1.83GHz Intel Core Due Superdrive with 1GB RAM and an Apple 20" Cinema display with an external LaCie Firewire hard drive and JBL sub speaker system. This system is where I do graphics and other bits and pieces.

I have appreciated seeing the setups of those who have posted here.

This is where I enjoy this hobby.

I thought I would show my Editing/Fx/Graphics world. I am a big fan of both MAC and PC.

I just got the Wacom and really love it for composite and design work.

- EMU 1212m Audio Interface
- Toshiba 14AF43 monitor
- M-Audio DX4 studio monitor
- Behringer UB1204FX Mixer
- Sony MDR-7506 Headphone
- Canon Optura 50 (used as DV deck)
- Vegas 7

- Canon 4400F Scanner
- Epson R300 printer
- Some lights
- A phone
- A cofee cup!

I thought I'd post a couple of pics - looking at them, what a mess!

Here is one of my editing desk, and of doing some testing today with the Anycast and DV Rack.

Nice clean setup Wade!

Thanks Daniel...like everyone else, I cleaned first!!! LOL!!

Hey Everybody. This is my absolute favorite thread on here. It's amazing to see how we all make our "magic" happen. So, I propose that we pull out the Digital cameras once again and post pics of what we are using....both editing and gear wise.

I know for me, some of my best ideas have come from seeing how others set their gear up. I'll have my pics up tomorrow....so.... join me in my corny attempt to steal your ideas.....

Bryon Akerman <><

Well, here is what I am currently working with. 17" powerbook witch FCP HD Studio. I'm running everything through it. The First Camera is a XL-1 with an XL-1s lens and viewfinder, while the second is an XL-1s with the MAnual lens, CRT viewfinder, MA-200 shoulder support and an AZden SGM-1x mic. I've got some various other equipment...wireless mics, wired Lavs, teleprompter boom poles, Light kits, Switchers, ste....but this is the main setup.

Now, let's go people...post some more pics...

Byron, it's nice to see a pair of older XL's still in service. Well done,

I am in shock and awe at how much money people have to spend on this stuff. I envy all of you. Your setups/equipment are incredible.
But, I am also angry, because half of this thread is littered with 404s, so can we please delete those posts from 3 years ago, or update them?

It is distressing to see so many dead links, but then I guess that is the nature of both the internet and humanity. We move on.

Looks like this in a "clear moment"....

but really - today - is like this....

my personal sandbox www.globalaudio.net It's my apartment, but has ended up being more and more office and less and less home.... Pretty soon I'm gonna have to move into another apt. ;)

Good heavens, Georgia! Your "personal sandbox" is just...well...AWESOME. I had a great time perusing and being overwhelmed by your Web site and all you offer. Thanks so much for sharing. :)
