Finally, Studio all setup!!

All the connections are exposed underneath, so it’s pretty easy to reach them. I don’t have to go in the back, just lay on the floor underneath the rack section and I can easily reach anything.

I also put those fuzzy floor pads on the bottom of the desk so it easily slides if I do need to do that for anything.

Gotchya, thanks!
I’m recovering from a broken tibia and about to have another surgery so my crawl around on the floor mobility is a bit limited at the second, but I really like the look

They really are, I love them. Big ass Trio6’s. It’s hard to tell size and scope in the pics, but they’re pretty large. That’s 2 32 inch computer Monitor screens next to them. The desk is 8 feet from rear corner to rear corner.

I picked those up last year, demo deals at Vintage King. Still damn expensive, but I figure I’m set for life on Studio Monitors. Plus I sold my old ones that helped a bit.

Looks kick ass man!

Reminds me, how is your buy/sell/trade site going?

I shitcanned the site. I was going to have to send too much money and take too much time to develop ways to collect taxes and all that shit Reverb and other sites have to do and it was just too much. Barriers to entry was too much, plus I hated the thought of me spending all the time, money and effort to be a tax collector and not helping build the site. I was getting a lot of people signing up, but no sales. So I just cut my losses…
 
That looks killer! Mission friggin Control!

That sucks about Tonefind. There's got to be a way to connect buyers/sellers without having to be such a 'middle man'. With all the tax BS you'd think everybody would be looking for other ways to conduct person-to-person sales/purchases.

I had some Alpha 80's, and loved them so much! Can't wait to get some of those or something similar!

Understood man. I applaud you for trying because we knew you were not doing it for the money. You were just trying to make a better platform for us real folk without people getting screwed. Props.

WOW Dude! That's INSANE. Well done!

I also have a De Lisle 4x4 deluxe. It is introducing a lot of noise to my amps. How have you been able to tame it?

That sucks about the noise. I have not experienced any noise at all using this one. Mine is the 8x6 Pro and I bought it new from him just this past November.
Does yours have a ground lift to try or maybe try cable swaps to isolate? For me usually when I have any noise it’s due to a bad cable or a grounding issue.

I am thinking cables too. I have the stuff to build some high end ones, just have to do it.
Mine does have ground lift, but does not help.

Thanks.

Long saga, but finally about done. Back in early December I posted a crazy shipping story about a lost Studio Desk. Ordered last April, long ass ordeal, but finally got it on December 21. That thread here for posterity sake.
https://www.rig-talk.com/forum/thre...ory-miracle-update-found-and-received.232550/

So we moved into a new place on January 7. Got all unpacked, situated, etc…big ass moving hassle, then FINALLY started putting my studio back together and built the new studio Desk. Here she is!!!

Using a De Lisle amp switcher, I have 6 amps hooked up going between a Two-Notes Captor X and Suhr Reactive Load. The Suhr RL output hits a Two-Notes CAB M+ for IR's. Cool thing is I can use all my Two-Note cabs on either the CAB M+ or the Captor X.

So the full switchable chain would be:
Guitar -> Pedal board (EQ, OD's) -> DeLisle -> 6 amp inputs -> 6 Amp outs -> DeLisle -> 2 Reactive Loads (and CAB M+) -> Patch Bay -> Time based effects (Source Audio EQ2, H9, Strymon pedals on the desk) -> Apollo -> Focal Studio Monitors.
Throw in the Axe-Fx III and the 7th amp output on the DeLisle goes to the KSR Ceres pedal -> Two-Notes CAB M+ -> Patch Bay -> Time base effects, etc...

So I can use the same Pedal board frontend into any of the amps or the Ceres, choose between the Suhr RL or the Captor X (or skip the Loads and go directly to a CAB M+ for the Ceres and future preamp type pedals) and through the patchbay have any of it go through the same Time based effects.

Now that it's done, tomorrow I'm learning bar chords !! :cool:
