the wheels are in motion!!! after years of freelancing and working out of others studio i'm finally going to build my own (Magic Mirror Studios). it's a priviate studio for me and my wife. from time to time we will rent the studio out to others so we do want the gear list to be impressive as well. here's what i've decide on thus far. the pieces with "***" next to them are the ones that i haven't used but want to test. and if they work out then i'll keep them.
