A : posting a satellite image where you keep all your stuff is not the smartest thing.
B: Acquaint yourself with the hoe index. YOu are charging what I imagine the going rate for a back alley blow job is. |

well i guess i could have clients roam around manchester trying to find the place cos i'm too scared to tell them where I am... or i could show them. because obviously I leave the doors wide open with a sign saying 'free expensive shiny things in here'...
yes prices are cheap, but times are hard at the moment - and if i charged £50 a track I doubt i'd get much business from up and coming producers.
cheers for feedback anyway :) |

| You show exactly where to find 20 000 in gear. That is what we call in business idiotic. Give an approximate address, EDM and rap producers like stealing . I woulndt be surprised if you were robbed in the next year. |

And now we know who the prime suspect will be. :) |

every studio ever robbed was at the hands of someone that knew about it and made edm or hip hop. this has been proved via double blind tests. Now that is just with customers. Imagine that everyone had access. you've just made yourself that much more susceptible. Crime is not random. It is always done by someone you know or have met or knows about you and it is a tempting crime because if you trip an alarm, you leave. You either succeed or you just act like you went to the wrong address.
I was almost robbed once. Guy walks in opening 2 deadbolts in under 1 minutes, says he is here to fix the plumbing when he notices me watching him as he enters. Leaves in less than 10 seconds. Had a Tupac for life t shirt.
And if you think insurance will give you your money in ample time for music equipment, well you have a nice surprise waiting for you. They will question every single item. As for receipts and take a very long time. |

Nice setup Bob (are you Ian in the piccy?).
You mentioned hard times, well here's something I wonder about. Often Future Music run articles on new studio's opening,and the new owners don't mention the economic lendscape so I think either they are deluded, or juts very good at grabbing new business.
One in fact is in Manchester, a huge great thing with a massive live area (sorry I can't recall the name) that said it had quickly attracted several high profile bands.
Also I had a stern debate on a general discussion forum (moneysavingexpert - general discussion section) with this guy who was running a study of the music business as part of his Uni course and he said I was totaly wrong thinking studios were a declining business. He said I was too influenced by neg heads who didn't know what the business was really like.
Ah well. |

Yep that's me :)
Times are definitly hard. A big studio in manchester has recently shut down (moulin rouge).
However there's always new startups for those with more money than sense, a multi million pound complex has opened recently near the city centre which is probably the one your talking about. Next level above us sadly...
Will get my showreel of mastered tracks uploaded tonight for you to listen too.
Cheers |

| a showreel has picture. portfolio is the word you are looking for. And student discount on 30$ ? tell him to off. You master because you are releasing a commercial product. student and mastering do not belong together. |
