I mostly use mine for patching I/O for my 500 series and compressors, but I also wired in a couple ADC 24 point patchbays to work from the control room to front of house. I could see a 3.5mm patch bay to be useful, but would you need all 24 patch points be 3.5mm? Maybe a mix of some kind? Pic of my ...

Any suggestions welcome

Ta!

Draw it up and I will build a couple
Limited time only wigglers

I just bought this as a project.... 4481 (1) (1).JPG 12 x 24 x 8" travel, highspeed water cooled spindle. I love public auctions! Nice to see new life brought back into an old machine :tu: Keep us updated with more pics as you make adjustments and changes. We could spend a few pages just talking ab...

Thanks for bringing this thread back up.. It answers a number of questions I had. I know it might seem intimidating to start down this road, but you can pull it off (pun intended) for a pretty reasonably cost as far as up front costs go. You can purchase a couple screens from Sunbelt and use a loca...

Nice! Looks extra awesome with the windows whited out like that, especially considering the psychedelic wonderland contained inside :tu: :tu: :tu: :tu: :tu: Working on the larger side room for recording acoustic instruments. http://www.absolutextremes.com/HRrough.jpg http://www.absolutextremes.com/...

I like the rack mount voyager with breakouts, the Roland system-1m and of course the Cirklon.

Wow .
What you call a studio would qualify as a concert venue for some people .

Well, it kind of is. It's a 100 year old, former baptist church in southern colorado. The acoustics are awesome

Bumping this thread again as I am starting to get more questions!!!

Here is the link to a CNC thread where I posted more pics on that topic.

Wow DSC - thanks for the detailed posts. How do we find more info on the small mill? Well, the one I have had my eye on for the last year is this one on ebay. https://www.ebay.com/itm/3-Axis-CNC6040-Desktop-USB-Router-Engraving-Drilling-Milling-Machine-Engraver/162520193192?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX...

I actually want the flex
You can cut faster with less backlash if you use the give of the rods like suspension
Comes with hours and hours of cutting and observation. Yes, counter intuitive, but it works.

Yes, typo on the thickness, corrected. Thank you.

DSC, is your smaller router some type of home brew setup? It doesn't look like any particular machines I've seen. More info on my small CNC. It is a cheap China version from about 5 years ago. Most versions of this model now have the router attached to the main Z axis. My version uses a flex shaft ...

DSC, that's awesome. What machine are you cutting with? Warning! Large post!!!! I have two CNC Routers. A large one and a small one. Why would you need two? Why not just get a big one? Tolerances! My large machine is DIY and the tolerances are +/- .060" over a 48" x 46" bed. This is fine for larger...

That's interesting, as, often, traditional print is "looked down on" and metal photo is considered the pinnacle of panel marking.

Its curious that you bothered to go from one to the other.

I really wanted it to match everything else

Nice set up!! Would you be so kind as to point out where you get these threaded patch cables ? I make them myself. Got tired of the plastic ones failing on me and the feel of the plastic ones just felt cheap. You can buy the cable cheap from ebay. I use the longest USB cables I can find and then ch...

Wow, DSC so you do all that in house?

Yes. Sometimes all you need to do is blast the original panel and powdercoat and screenprint it.
Like this e370 panel. I didn't like the original metalphoto panel.

If you will spring to get the CNC machine, then you might want to project going the whole way.
I mean if you start cutting up some fancy smancy panels then you will want to finish them by powdercoating
them and screen printing them too!
Little gif of my process.

I put a 727 module together for this funky palate!

I came here to see more about how people are using their spaces, what other gear they're using these systems with - the title does mention studio spaces... Here's a couple of mine. http://www.absolutextremes.com/serenity.jpg http://www.absolutextremes.com/Studio.jpg http://www.absolutextremes.com/l...

The notion still crosses my mind. I mean, it's not like I've done engineering drawings and worked out production times or anything ...... ~ahem~ ...

Curious! 'Enquiring' minds want to know

It's diaphanous touch can't be replaced. Period.
Slight CV modulation either slow or fast is pure heaven.

Keep this thread updated to your progress. I always like seeing what people come up with

Like everything I make it usually is a very limited run. Allows me not to be bogged down running another business,
and keeps the focus on the fun part, innovation and customization!

Super compact!



Not so compact, but ALL the bells and whistles!
