more information
The purpose of the Guitar Nine Records' Home Studio Registry is to allow owners and users of home/project studios to communicate with other musicians who are doing similar projects and work.
Far from being the solitary musician locked in a spare room with a bunch of expensive toys, you will finally be able to hook up with others who have many of the same dreams and aspirations as you do.

Secondary purpose: Practice/Rehearsal
Recording knowledge level: Above average
MIDI knowledge level: None
Typically work (with): Other musicians
Completed songs/demos/jingles: 61-100
Future plans: An EP of some sort. Something jangly and perhaps 80`s-ish. My Bloody Valentine meets The Smiths meets Modest Mouse/Built To Spill. Something short and fun before I shut it down for two years.
Guitars: Fender Telecaster with custum paint job; Squier II Strat; Squier II Strat with blue/silver/red Lace Sensor pickups and custom paint job; cheap Fender acoustic.
Keyboards: Yamaha DJX. Roland something or other. In conjunction with many effects and tricks. My keyboardist is about to purchase a $3000 dollar keyboard which is apparently akin to the one used by Jonny Greenwood of Radiohead.
Sound modules: I`m sure we have one.
Percussion: Mr. Yamaha, Irish drum, misc ethnic percussion
Effects: Danelectro Daddy-O, Cool Cat and Tuna Melt; Electro-Harmonix Big Muff (SustainPunched) and Dlx Electric Mistress; Boss PS-3; Korg 301dl Echo, Korg 411fx Multi for vocals, misc stuff I don`t use
Microphones: Cheap but effective
Mixer: Nada
Tape decks: Nada
Hard disc recorders: Fostex FD-8
Monitoring system: Some kind of stereo tape deck with nice speakers, cheap headphones
Computers: We have one. Lots of memory. Yadda yadda.
Music software: Cool Edit Pro -- used to sweeten and enhance tracks recorded on the FD-8. Basically I use the FD-8 because it`s portable and convenient. The NR and tweaking is done on computer, as is the burning of CDs.
Other equipment: Harmonicas
Comments: Crude but highly effective. Has produced some very good recordings of some very diverse and unusual music.
