Definitely not the MIDI expert here, hewhoiscalledj.  My MIDI setup is what I was able to cobble together over 8 years ago with WIN2000 and a software synth (Sonic Synth running in SampleTank).  Once this computer finally croaks I'll probably have to start all over.  :(

Take heart, Tim. Your M-BR will do most of what all the little black boxes in my home studio will do.  And I would gladly trade it all to be able to do what you can do.   ;)

These days I merely dabble at being old and wise.
But I swear, I used to absolutely excel at being young and stupid.

It's functional and moves anywhere, including out of the way.

I found the mini-music stand at Sam Ash and attached it to the base of a mic holder. The stand also came with the little arm that I hang headphones and chords from. I usually move the stand it to my desk to record uke and bass, then to the bedroom in front of the closet for vocals, since the sound is deader.

When the stand's down it's a good height for arranging and mixing. I try to use the Micro's  effects mostly, so I don't require a lot of extra cords and paraphernalia.

Mine looks just like my bed, with a guitar, MicroBR, and headphones on top of it.

Wow, what an awesome thread!  Thanks to Kody for directing me here.  Nice to see everyone else's studios and gear!  I have no pics at the moment, but here's what's in my little recording room:

  • A red sparkle Jackson Drums custom drum kit next to the window in one corner (hand-crafted drums made by my dad, who owns his own drum company); the kick drum is a ridiculous 28".
  • A midnight blue Rickenbacker 620, aqua-blue sparkle Danelectro DC-3, and a black Schecter Model-T Diamond Series bass in another corner.
  • An antique burst Art & Lutherie acoustic guitar next to the door.
  • A Roland Juno-D synthesizer against the wall, next to the acoustic.
  • A Behringer B-1 condenser mic on a stand in front of the drum kit (used for vox as well as a room mic for recording drums).
  • On a small, sad little cramped desk facing the painted wall, between the drums and the synth, there sits the massive, hulking, ultra-non-portable, super-badass alien-robot music recording machine from the planet BOSS (a.k.a. the BR-1600 CD), an ART Tube MP pre-amp, and a pair of M-Audio Studiophile BX8a monitors.
  • In the remaining corner, you can find my sanity curled up into the fetal position, weeping.

I really appreciate this thread.  If my wife ever tries to say that five guitars is too many, all I need to do is pull up this topic.
