Workspace
So now that I’m almost finished with the studio (see the post below) I finally got to do some actual work in it today. I spent about 3 hours putting together a big orchestration for a project I’ve been hired to do. It was a good test run for the studio and I have to say that it was a huge success. All those hours thinking about my workspace needs and space issues came to fruition. The new studio is everything I wanted it to be. The only thing it lacks is the second monitor (and the space for it). I think I’m going to do some minor fiddling with the space here to try and gracefully shoehorn one into the space. While working in Finale I had 25 measures and about a dozen staves visible at one time at 75% magnification. It was great but I had to cover up the score with all kinds of windows and menus. A second monitor would be much appreciated.
I’m thrilled to have all this ROOOOOM on my desktop, too. Can’t wait to show y’all the pictures.
