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.

Completed songs/demos/jingles: More than 100
Future plans: Well, I`m on SONAR 3 now, and it`s back to the beginning. I`d really like to make some friggin` MUSIC for a change, instead of putzing around trying to be a computer geek. I miss my analog tape!
Guitars: `63 DanElectro Bellzouki, `75 Ovation Viper, `82 Epitaph DV-8, `82 Vantage VS695 `84 Strat Elite, `85 Marina 12, `87 Yamaha SA-2000, `87 Fender Geminii III, `95 Yam FG-411, `98 Yam RBX-675 Bass, `98 Ovation FCM-408 mandolin, 2000 Sakis Bros Baglama, Woodrow electric custom dulcimer, 4 homebrew guitars, a fifth a-building...
Keyboards: Roland JX-305, Yamaha CS-101, and Korg Poly 800 (currently on loan to my brother`s studio).
Sound modules: Roland GR-50 Guitar Synth, Korg MS200R (an awesome-sounding unit!! ) I`m looking for a Morpheus module, if you have one you`d like to part with. SONAR has a few nice soft-synths, but they`re waaay too fiddly for me to gunk around with.
Percussion: Roland TR-707 and Boss DR-770. I sold the R-8. The 770`s up for sale, too.
Effects: Korg A2, Yamaha REV-7 Reverb, and my litte Kaoss pad "more useful everyday!", plus Native Instruments Spektral Delay, which is an odd little program with big potential.
Microphones: Primary: Studio Electronics C1... and folks, believe the hype! This thing is fantastic! Secondaries: Sure SM57, a couple Audixii, and various other no-name dynamics.
Mixer: Say goodbye to the Mackie 8-bus, and a big cheery “hello!” to Mister Behringer UB2222FX. The Mackie 8-bus has been de-commissioned and is up for sale, replaced by a Behringer UB2222FX. In a way, this is a big step backward, but there was a reason for it: my studio footprint had grown to such a dimension that I never wanted to work anymore! Rolling back and forth across several work areas was getting to be such a drag, that when I had an Idea, I`d say to myself "aw, that means I have to roll back and forth across the room all night!". So, my intent is to pare down to the bare minimum of equipment I need, centralize it in one workstation, and leave the rest to SONAR.
Tape decks: Tape? What`s that?!
Hard disc recorders: New SONAR system was installed in April 2004! Big props to my best friend Mike Masquith (home of Barkin` Beaver Studios) who has been so instrumental in helping me sort out the myriad and ongoing technical issues... and there are a lot of them. I have spent 4x more time debugging my system in the past year than I have recording!
Monitoring system: Harmon Kardon AV25-II amp, drives NS-10M`s and several sets of miscellaneous other "audiophile" speakers for real-world reference, 3 boomboxes for same.
Computers: Some big black thing, very quiet, that Mike and Sandy built for me. It`s blisteringly fast, has RAID all over the place, and is a very stable box. I like it.
Music software: On the Tower: SONAR 3, NI Spektral Delay, Sound Forge, various other utilities, and Soldier of Fortune for "attitude adjustment". Just got Band in a Box, installing over Thanksgiving 2003.
Other equipment: I won`t bore you any more. Various DDL`s, Compressors, Gates, a couple homebrew tube line amps, some PaIA kits, MSB MIDI patchbay, 4-channel light sequencer(for the proper studio ambiance!), yadda yadda... plus: The PEDALBOARD FROM HELL - many, many Boss pedals (16 total, I think) nestled snugly together in Good Comradeship for immediate, glitch-free guitar tone modification. I would also be remiss in failing to mention Maximus the Puppy, whose sweet little countenance and faithful, happy puppily nature has saved me from beating some of this oftimes-cranky equipment into it`s consituent Quarks - more than once.
Comments: I run this thing for fun! I gave up dreaming of money and a global audience long ago, and now concentrate solely on expressing my worldview and sharing it with anyone interested. I am really interested in swapping CD's with other musicians - my stuff is "Alternative PopNonGrungeNorSmarm", (I call it "Pop Music for the Thinking Man"), but I'm open to all styles. The trick lies in "decoupling the art from the expectation of financial return". From there, inner peace and all else will follow.
