Houston Texas Recording Studios

I live in Houston, Texas. We have a really volatile power grid, Houston kind of does its own thing (Texas maintains a separate grid from the rest of the USA, which is unique). We also have a lot of hurricanes, a lot of storms, we’re right by the Gulf of Mexico and it rains a lot. Unfortunately, I learned my lesson the hard way and lost a very expensive subwoofer in the process. I finally added the PST 8 to several of my rooms (I have large, expensive surround sound systems in multiple rooms). The Furmans are great - they shut down power surges, they reduce signal noise (I now have subs that do not have ground loops even without other filtering). It’s super heavy duty, excellent build quality, and multiple 3rd parties such as Wirecutter have opened them up and electrical engineers have validated that they are built in a way that protects expensive equipment. I own four of these units and use them on all of my surround sound receivers, separate amplifiers, high end subwoofers, and Apple computers. Anywhere that there is more than $5,000 in equipment in a single area, I use them. They are great. The price compared to other units with this level of protection is such a great value too.

We operate multiple portrait studios across the State of Texas. When it comes to props, the first thing we look at is safety and then price. The Impact posing stool was by far the best chair for the price.

Recently went to Houston for 4 days and this is all I needed.

I love this headphone. Very useful in live shows and recording studios with a great sound.

If your budget allows, please do not settle for anything less than the Neumann 102. Over my 12 years of recording in a studios across the world, Neumann mics have provided the best sound overall across a diverse range of vocals. From singers, choirs, rappers, or broadcast, this is a must have! Do not settle if the budget allows.

I'm used to working on Keningston Trackballs in various recording studios, and I really wanted one in my office as well, so I jumped on B&H's recent flash sale on these. It's a really nice upgrade over the logitech marble trackball I was using previously. The ergonomics are night and day, thanks to the wrist rest and the larger size. It's also nice to have the scroll ring, which was absent on the logitech.

You can pay more for a fancy power conditioner or get this. These have been used in recording studios, live concert rigs, and professional sound systems for decades... proven reliability.

I use this in multiple recording studios and it's absolutely fantastic. Zero noise/interference. Excellent layout of outlets. And with coax and ethernet connections as well, it's simply a jack-of-all-trades. A+

I purchased over a dozen of these over the last several years. 3 pairs for myself and the rest for several small recording studios I helped put together. Make sure to replace the pleather pads with Beyerdynamic valour alternatives.

15+ years of seeing this on stages, multiday festivals, and recording studios. There's a reason it's in every professional's toolkit.
