Before spawning any roadie progeny?
Yes…but my progeny got his own real roadie. Toured with Saliva and a few other bands of that era. Didn’t have time to roadie for dear old Dad. 
Hey SteveK… I actually was asking So_Godly (Sven) about this stand in his post a long while back:
Anybody recognize that thing?

Hi vonnor, it’s a ruka,
that I modified with a TV arm for my laptop.
Only thing is, I can’t find any similar stands myself. I guess it’s 20 yrs old now.
I love the stand, it’s stable and very handy, all in 1. Couldn’t do it with another stand.
Only thing with it is that you have to screw unscrew the ground stands, the feet, every concert…
It’s in shape of a inverted V indeed /\

Built a new Rack with Surface inside ( in the Lower Rackdrawer , so i can close it when i dont need it.
Cantabile is working in the background and with the surface touch display i can handle my Mixing Console perfectly via Network.
On my synth there is only a IPad Mini for Songtext (OnSong - App)
All conected with cables (no Wifi…Wireless…) only good old wires.
At home it is possible to connect 2 Monitors on the backside with Hdmi and mouse and Keyboard directly on the front USB also Dongles and Usb-Sticks.
So I think it is perfekt for me… Light at the end of the tunnel

Dmxis also!
I like the hardware and software to send.
I now have 1 program per song but would like to try more later with the timeline perhaps or state change.

bfI have got tested so many dmx interfaces with different software solutions…
but it was all to complicated.
…so finaly this is the best for me and works perfekt with cantabile
…i have built a ‘light’-Rack with my light scenes and so i can switch the scenes with states and no more dmx programming orgy.
my only problem is the time to work with my equipment… 24h a day is not enough to work eat and my hobby('s).
So at the moment it is all in test phase only testing states an not a real setlist to use

I finally got around to taking a new shot of my studio. This time, I made sure Cantabile was running on my main studio PC.
The newest addition to the keyboard rig is the Roland System 8 in the middle of the shot. Roland have a winner with this one. It sounds wonderful.

Thanks Herman 
IIt’s been a long time in the making. I first started putting this rig together 30 years ago. The first synth I owned was the MK1 DX7 which I still have and use. The first synth I ever played was a Roland Juno 6, (in 1984) and I also still have one of those in this rig and it too gets plenty of use.

Always worrying when you recognise most of the synths without having ever owned them 
Good that you have all the space. I have room for four boards in my man cave. So it is one in, one out for me!

If I had kept everything I had owned through the years I’d have a heck of collection. But I went the opposite route, I got rid of stuff when I had no room, had to move, er, had to pay for weddings… or food… etc Didn’t we do a thread once running down what we’d have if we kept it all?

@David Where the heck are you going to squeeze in the Cathedral Pipe Organ is all I ask.

(Love the detail of your Ambisonics setup, too!)
I guess that’s one of the advantages of remaining single. Or is that the REASON I am still single???
There’s been more than one occasion I’ve survived on two minute noodles between pay days too!
The only reason I have this rig now is because I haven’t sold any of the keyboards I’ve purchased since starting in the 80s. This rig is pretty much a timeline of my musical journey.

Ah, the pipe organ…
I must update that topic. In the end, I decided against that project. After doing further research, it turned out that it was going to require considerably more time than I had initially thought to get it up and running again in its new location. It would also have required most of the budget that I’ve allocated to the construction of the Moog style modular setup I’m working on.
I’m also working on a double length concept album at the moment which is my biggest undertaking to date. The install of the organ would’ve been a significant distraction away from the completion of this album.
Regarding the Ambisonics setup, I intend on taking some photos of the full setup soon. At the moment, I have the speakers mounted on a temporary frame made from a combination of Gibraltar drum hardware, random pieces of aluminium tubing and old pedestal fan stands!! It isn’t very photogenic!!
