Portable recording rig -- complete
« on: February 16, 2014, 12:53:09 PM »
I have been slowly building up a secondary recording rig over the past few months. The idea is that that I can easily fit everything into a single case for single instrument recording, writing drum parts, etc, as I track things in different places and do not own a car.

My 'big' setup is rack mounted and based around the Focusrite 18120; it has all my outboard gear, analogue desk, JBL 8" monitors, and everything is hardwired to a patch bay. I am using an iMac w Cubase.



The portable setup uses a Focusrite 2i2, 19" monitor and Mac Mini running Cubase. The entire setup breaks down in a minute and fits into a flight case.


I use an external hard drive to bring projects across from one setup to the other as needed.

So far it works a treat! :)

Nice one :D

By the way, I'd only read the first para, and then looked down at the pic I could see on the screen (the second pic needed a scroll down to see it) - and I thought "BLUDDY HELL! He's a tougher guy than I imagined if he thinks that's portable without a car!!" :lol:
