Living Lights Studio, Olef (Germany), December 2022

Two years ago I published new photos of my studio for the last time. A lot has happened since then. Firstly, I have completely revised and remeasured the room acoustics. I also got rid of any Eurorack and synths without memory (except my x0xbox). The space I have now dedicated to full-grown synths with which I have much more fun and crative moments, which I can also save for later projects. Also I have now finally found a new main synthesizer, the Hydrasynth Deluxe, which is also great as a master keyboard. The result You can see here:
