Junkie XL's studio...

well, Tom's gf posted a picture of his Venice based studio.

can anyone identify the red guitar? and i'm guessing those bx5's aren't really his monitors/

i feel like lying down on his carpet floor

I can't see the JP8080

The guitar is actually a wood grain strat with a humbucker in the bridge. I would say its recent (last three years or so). Probably an american series, go to the fender website and look under the american series or american delux you'll find it pretty quick.

I also see a little line 6 pod (desktop version) sitting under a computer. nice studio, he must use a lotta soft synths coz I dont see much hardware there, lotsa screens though

He does have quite a few hardware synths, if I remember correctly, but I read that he's also a big Reaktor user.

In an interview I read a lot is done sample based. If he has friends/fellow artists coming over he samples every sound a few times. For instance if it is a drummer he samples each drum quite a few times to have that different take/snap to it.

That's an awesome Studio
About the Guitar
It seems to be a Fender Stratocaster

About the bx5's BT uses them, and also look behind the screen there is a massive dynaudio big room monitor too.

i have bx8's and i'm pretty happy with them, just figured with everything top top top of the line, why settle for $300 5" drivers? but i missed the dynaudio.

So is the Maudio 88 pro worth getting?

if junkie's got one, i want one too. Tried one out at guitar center. It has more nobs than a porn mag, but the keys feel a bit sticky.

cheers

Im sure he uses the m-audio monitors to give him a different sound, so he can hear what it would sound like on a some "crappier" monitors.

hmm, im not so sure

it looks like a 1980s model of an japanese model, who knows, it could be a recent re-issue, but like i said, im not 100%

hes got a sound setup though. (no pun intended)

How much money do you guys think it's invested on that studio?

Posted by MrJiveBoJingles on Dec-10-2006 01:01:

Hard to say, probably over two or three hundred thousand dollars U.S. at least.

He may get discounts from softsynth makers these days because he helps design some of the presets for them (I know he is credited in a bunch of NI Reaktor ensembles).

Yeah, I said two to three hundred thousand (and you even quoted it), not two to three thousand.
