Here's my place of creation that I share with some of my dragons.  The other side of the room doubles as my dressing room :lol:

Wow, this looks extremely tidy, Gill! I 'm lucky to have a large desk in my big basement room that serves as a guest room, computer room, audio studio, and gym! My desk has books and CDs all over the place (off limits to anyone else!), between the graphic tablet, the printer, the large monitor, and the scanner. I find all I need there most of the times, but there are the other times when I wish it was organized (but then I find what I want, and conclude there is absolutely no need to change anything!)

I like to be tidy wherever I work!    Though what isn't in shot here is a set of stacking boxes (floral of course) that houses my disks and other paraphenalia.  It's all hidden behind the door.   Fortunately, one thing that didn't show up here was the layer of dust - hasn't been done since middle of last week (nawty me)

I ditched the printer ages ago.  The inks used to dry up and was a waste of money as I don't print very much.  If I DO need anyting printing off I zoom it over to hubby's compter and he does it.

There was a time when this whole corner was a mass of black spaghetti cables, keyboards, huge consoles and other stuff. But the miracle of modern technology (and saving buku pennies) has allowed me to streamline down to what you see here. 

The tall black thing in the right corner is a Bose L1 sound system. The sound is so pristine it forces you to be a better musician. The black box on the floor is a power board with harmonizer and guitar synth. Wind controller, module and recording deck on the left and Alvarez, Mike Kelly and Godin instruments on the right.

I have to keep the side panel off my pc with a fan blowing into it.  My vidcard (overclocked) gets way too hot. Sometimes, I'll turn everything on and turn the lamp off and just sit back and look at all the pretty lights lol.......

Yeah man, marriage and children force me to stay home more than i would like to, so i gotta do something when not at work or in Vue, so gaming is the extra(; My Wacom is t ucked away, bit i got all the pretty lights on my G-11 keyboard and my razer copperhead to finally blink for when i a,m REALLY bored:P  You got one hell of a setup there buddy. I cannot have my cover on either as you see or it'll blow up:D My GTS is way overclocked. And still...Crysis plays like crap...looks nice though:D

Quite tidy Paul - for a man !!  Though the area does look very masculine.  The photos are a nice homely touch though :)

Mark, yours looks a little too chaotic for my taste but with all the music stuff in there as well, it's hardly surprising.  I do like your table lamp though. 

Thing with me is - I like using the technology but I hate it being on show.  My 2 external drives on my desk are camoflaged with dragons and postcards.    Yes, my TV is in a big cupboard and the doors are only open when it's being watched.  AND I don't have a TV in the bedroom.  Hubby has a little mini TV in his tiny computer room but I rarely go in there.  He makes model planes......I need say no more !!!!

Here is where I sit right now - office. Being self employeed I can do Vue whenever I want - or have the time. Therefore mostly in the office, not very often at home, where i only have a bit of space on the desk of my wife. Her empire there.

Well, my space is a bit cramped. And between the OCD and the bi-polar i kinda have to keep it relatively  clean or my head will pop:D

Now that looks a lovely space to work in Walther.  It looks really serene and calm.  The surroundings look great too - the shape of the windows and the old fashioned radiators.  I like that kind of thing :)  The big plant breaks up the whiteness just right.  So far, you have my favourite Vueing place!!

Thanks Gill. It indeed is an old castle where we have our office now since February this year. Very serene really and inspiring. I enjoy still coming here every day.

An old castle? WOW what a wonderful place to work!!  When I win the lottery I'm going to buy me a castle

Well, we just rented some rooms in here of course. Not very expensive even but with a lot of atmosphere.

Oh and I think we should all move to Wabe's office. it's big enough for the entire forum! ;)

Gosh I'm just looking again at Mark's and Trepz's systems. Fantastic looking speakers and Marks musical equipment looks great! Must sound really nice in both places. I have a couple of tiny speakers i bought at the super market. They make all sorts of fantastic noises too... especially when I set my cell phone down somewhere near them. sheesh!

My speakers are built in to the monitor but that's OK because I listen to music on the hifi (covered in a lace cloth - of course!) that's to my right :-)

I will trade my speakers for your dual wide screens any day of the week:D

Hummmm. interesting idea. I shall think about it. ;)

Mine is a bit crowed, there are all kind of critters in my little part of the living room! ^_-

Is that a tigerskin chair I spy ?

No, it's real artifical zebra skin! ^_-

"No artificial zebras were harmed during the making of that chair!"

WOW, can you believe that setup Wabe has?  I think he still lives with his mother.  :^)

FAKE---I see some of Linda's lush plants and some from Martin Frost in the window of French Kiss! 

Can you believe how clean that room is?  Like they say, a clean desk is a sign of a sick mind :^)

And Walther always told me I wasn't quite right in the head, so...

Okay Gary! Let's see yours! :)

Oh well, you forgot to mention the fake fog plants that someone has provided! But do I feel just a bit of jealousy Gary? Good!

I'm green with jealousy over that view from your window wabe!  I'd love to see an outside view of the castle.  

So far Wabe takes it by a landslide.  Gimme a day or so to chase the rats out of my office and remove the cobwebs  from the walls.  I also have to figure out how I am going to extricate the family of racoons living in my desk drawers.  When I have it cleaned up, I will snap a pix for you folks. 

Ok, but I would like the photo with the racoons! I don't care much about rats but racoons are funny! ^_-

The bottom pic i added for Monsoon who also seems to play guitar :-)
Wabe 's desk is out of this world indeed, it 's way to clean LOL !!

I use Mac 's but they won 't show in the pics because they are located in another room, so that there is no computer noise in the 'music room'

Hey nice studio you have goin there!!  Looks like you're into serious production. Nice rig.

What kind of music do you make in there?  I'm trying to perfect the live looping thing with the 3 voice guitar and wind synth. Progress is nothing to write home about but it's slow and sure....

Hi,

I write pop, rock, ballads, spacemusic, dance... whatever gets in my head at any moment :-)
Once i had a gig on Eurosong 2002 on television and in the past i had various record deals.
But never it made me a rich man LOL

However since i got to know Vue and 3D i do not make music much anymore these days (sadly enough) but on the other hand i gained a lot of fun with making 3d stuff !!

Not a patch on Wabe's setup though, his looks like a room from one of those hip Scandinavian style catalogues.

The PC is under the left hand screen, the Mac Mini hides under the drawer unit on the right, and those are Bose Companion speakers, great for movies. Sidewinder joystick for Flight Simulator, and somewhere in there is a Wacom A6 tablet.

Midfield, two Kensington Pro trackballs, expensive but excellent.

Appropriately perhaps, the poster on the wall is from "Grace Under Pressure", the 1984 RUSH album.

Those of you with masses of equipment - you either have extreeeeeemely large houses or very understanding families :laugh:

I suppose we're lucky - 2 people in a 3 bed house.  1 for an actual bedroom the others are our own private spaces

Yep, thats where I am jealous!
My own working space!

Now I am in a living room corner, trying to work with my girls and my mother in law watching "Desperate housewives"!

And I am a desperate artist, maybe I could install my gear in the cellar room on the washing machine?

Just  myself to worry about spacewise. Luckily. I spend so much time there in my own little worlds that if I were married, I'd be divorced.

Quote - I suppose we're lucky - 2 people in a 3 bed house.  1 for an actual bedroom the others are our own private spaces

My wife and I are lucky in the same respect - we have 2 people in a 3 bedroom house, meaning that she can have her neat office and I can have my warzone  dump office. If I could find my camera I'd get a pic of it ;)

edit - you lot are all so neat!

EWWWWWWWW I shudder every time I go in there.  Rows of plastic model airplanes, bits of model workinprogress on the ucky desk.  Bits of lord knows what lying around, empty coke cans......   :cursing:

He even has it painted 'man colours' - the only room in the house that's not variations on either pink or green

The 'Sword Of Valhalla' precariously perched on the wall was a Christmas prezzy from me a few years ago.  Luckily, neither of us has suffered a pierced foot....YET

Actually i'm stuck in a corner between the wall and the drier lol It's the only place i was supposed to be creative :)

In fact, it's the three cats's room, they rent it to me for my computer stuff. What you can't see here (and don't want to) is the 2 cat's sand box that are on the drier's right. I can tell you sometimes my creativity runs away because of the 'heavy atmosphere' LOL

There's a lot of red in there.....good for dining rooms, not sure about creativity

"AboranTouristCouncil" 2 MBs of RAM, no wonder those MACS are so slow, LOL!!!! I know that will get a rise out of the MACHeads, tehehe. All 4 of my machines have 4 Gigs of RAM each and I am going to install a 64 Bit OS on My E8400 that I just put a Heatsink on and Overclocked it at a Roaring 4.60GHz. But I ain't showing ya my room. My deceased wife was the Neatnic and I have things scattered everywhere!!!!!!

Don't let this clean corner fool you - the rest of the room is full of boxes of books I have not had time to unwrap yet :)

I'm quite jealous of all the dual screen setups.  I'd like that but then there wouldn't be room for all my dragons, photos and pretty boxes :blink:

Yep, when I see those big screens!

But do as I did Gill, I use two 15" screens, I don't have the space to use bigger and for Vue 6 Esprit/Pro it does not make any difference.

Can you use two screens with 6Inf?

It's nice to get a glimpse of everybody's little creative corner.

For future reference, I made this thread a permanent feature of the Community page. Look in the Links section, next to 'A face on a name'.

Regarding the screens, I tend to use Vue on one screen at a time... the other screen is for reference material, email, IM etc...

Once you have tasted using two screens, you can't go back. It is just too useful.

At some point, i vow to strive to pull myself away from outdoors... and when im not there, im vueing...

anyways, and take a pic.

think i need to clean.

oh and i envy you right now, Gill.  a room to yourself.  oooooooooo.  i am currently in a 7 and a half foot wide by 32 foot long mobile "home".  The only door leads to outside and the outhouse.  you'd hate my house.  neatniks always do. =D  things tend to be clean - but not tidy or neat.  its really hard to here

i gave up a lot to live my dream in alaska, but even though i miss it, i wouldnt trade it for anything...

and i agree, agiel - once you go dual....

wow.

i have managed to drag vue (and poser) onto my second screen, as well as componants of them (animation pallet in vue, various popout windows in both), AND make vue stretch across both (i quickly had to stop that - it made me nausiated) - now, the programs stick to screen 1 - and chat, email, etc on second screen.

how did i ever live without this?  wow.
