There is a lot of “science” that can be applied to proper grounding. It can
get very complex and expensive. Good grounding practices not only help with
clicks and buzzes, but can dramatically reduce overall system noise. In a
digital studio this can make a noticeable difference.
Most local electricians don’t know anything about proper grounding for audio,
even if you supply a technical spec sheet.
A few basic concepts:
1. Integrity of the grounding point. – How deep, how oxidized, soil type,
how far from neutral tie down (closer is better).
2. Tight connections at all screw down points. Ideally this should be checked
with a meter, as should the increase in voltage between ground and neutral
as you get farther from the box. You should have a straight run from the
box to your main power in the studio. No bouncing from outlet to outlet before
the studio!
3. How clean is the power supplied from the street? Are you sharing a transformer
tap with multiple homes or businesses? Sometimes an isolation transformer
is needed to solve this.
4. If you have two or more phases are you maintaining reasonably balanced
load across the phases, and do you have all noisy items on a separate phase?
And equally important…are you using proper grounding techniques within the
studio? – Balanced audio connections, star ground, lifting unbalanced cases
from racks, heavy ground source cable.
Some things are obvious like triac light dimmers or florescent lights, but

The only quibble I might have is about star grounding. It really
isn't needed if you do all the things you recommended below. If you
have a low-resistance earth ground, then you need a true IG
(isolated ground) wiring scheme for the studio power. This involves
an actual green wire in the conduit and good quality 3-prong outlets
instead of using the conduit for the ground. Electricians do know
what an IG ground system is, and if you combine it with a low-
resistance path to true earth ground, you do not need to star
ground the studio.
You will need, of course, to properly balance, interface, ground
reference, and isolate as required by your particular equipment.

you may (or may not though i would) want to pour a layer of self
leveling cement first to true up the floor. 2" thickness shouldn't be
a problem with a second floating floor system to spread out the weight
bearing for any exceptionally heavy gear or...people. the system
above is thinner than a typical 2x? system and can have wood flooring
nailed to it.
as to insulating the joists and walls, remember to leave a small
(1/4") gap between materials and the wall surface and use either rz1
channel or something similar for mounting the wall surface to minimize
the contact (sound transmission) area.

(859) 635-5762Hehe... well I couldn't find much with the first two, except some other
guy also saying he can't find any info either. ;o)
As for beer spillage, it's not so much that the key is "sticking" more that
it just doesn't have any spring back, if you get the difference. As I was
the one playing it at the time, I can say that no beer was spilt on the keys
that night, only down my throat. It is possible that all the beer going down
my throat may have encouraged, say, a "more vigourous" playing style, which
may have had an impact on the sudden appearance of the fault. ;o) Though
I wasn't really bashing it. I mean it's a keyboard. You should be able to
"get into it" I would think.
Apparently not. )o;
Cheers,
Kim.

Now you've got me thinking. I'll bet I could figure out a way to take a
lightning rod and slodering it to a TRS cable and patching it to a Paris AD
routed to a channel insert.. Then from the insert output, running a TRS
cable to a a grounding rod that was driven deep enough to tap the hot
mineral saline water table that runs under this property from the hot
springs spa across the street, then I could get myself a good quality 8
guage copper cable, strip the ends, weld it to one of the brass eyebolts
that are imbedded in the concrete in the pool that hold the little ropes
with floats that section off various areas, then run that wire to one of the
telephone poles across the street and then from that pole, to the telephone
pole on my side of the street, then back to the lightning rod to complete
the insert loop.
I'm thinking this would make a cool plugin for processing an electric guitar
track,sort of earthy and liquid smooth, with an bright top end.?

Now that's thinkin'! ;o)
Right now the damaged key is middle D, so it's right in the firing line,
but you would think by pulling it apart I could move it to an end key...
or at very very least move it to a lesser used D.
I spoke to my friend just before and he's keen to rip it open next time I'm
there, so that sound like a plan. :o)
Cheers,
Kim.:o)........nothing ventured.....etc.

I'm probably preachin' to the choir on this one, but the trick to this
is getting a reasonably priced CD printer and spending some time
setting up some stock graphics templates. This way you spend very
little time and get some reasonably pro looking packages. Part of the
reason I get great refferals is because my packages look, IMHO, pretty
cool.<br>

I'm a fairly accomplished graphics artist, so if you're thinking of
