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.

Web site: www.chiocca.ik.org
Main purpose: Other
Secondary purpose: Other
Recording knowledge level: High
MIDI knowledge level: High
Typically work (with): Other
Completed songs/demos/jingles: More than 100
Future plans: Have produced over 1200 songs for use in loads of different types of things, mainly theatre and pantomime use and have produced and co-produced loads of different albums from old time music hall through to reggae (been in UK reggae charts with Wayne Macarthur-Moon Wave Music), hip hop and dance. Create excellent quality backing tracks and have done so many originals I`ve lost count. Most of the production for the 1200+ songs I`ve done has been cover songs as opposed to originals but I`ve worked on 200+ original songs either alone or with different musicians, writers, singers, etc.
Guitars: Work with loads of different people with loads and loads and loads of different instruments (not just guitars), plus really good friend runs his own music shop, so never a problem whatever guitar/instrument is wanted.
Keyboards: Roland E-70, Korg M1, Digital sampler with over 650,000 sounds in library.
Sound modules: Roland Sound Canvas SC33. Don`t tend to use modules anymore as I use all sampled individual instruments on the computer, though play these in manually via midi connection. I assign sample data to midi notes so that I can record the samples into a song by playing the keyboard.
Percussion: Alesis SR16, Normally use samples for building up patterns but lucky enough to have The Bay City Rollers drummer who is a personal friend and sometimes record live drummers such as him and others.
Effects: Only outboard effect is a Boss Delay unit as I run Logic Platinum among many other programs and use effects from Plug-Ins such as EQ, Reverb, Delay, Chorus, Flanger, Compression etc.
Microphones: 4 radio mics (SM58-just love the sound-from my gigging days)
3 standard mics SM58, SM57 and a proper studio recording mic but still prefer SM58`s (even for recording in this day and age).
Mixer: Outboard JBL desk for controlling sound into the soundcard and outputs to main speaker system so I can hear current song being worked on.
Tape decks: None-Master to CD/Minidisc
Monitoring system: 900watt power amp, 4 main speakers 2 Kam 440W, 2 Peavey 300W, Sennheiser/Phillips headphones.
Computers: Pentium III 500MHz, 9GB SCSI hard drive (old now I know), SCSI CDRW, 256MBRAM.
Music software: Logic Platinum, Cubase VST Score (64 track audio), Goldwave, Acid Music plus loads of others.
Comments: I work with and have worked with many different people over and have been playing music professionally since I was 13. I'm now 33 and would like to continue working with more musicians, writers, engineers, singers etc etc. as I love doing new and different stuff all the time.
