If those are monitors up on the wall on the right side of the photo, why do you have one in the center and another on the right? If those aren't monitors, ignore the question.

ya those are just garbage ones i use for my echo alexa device not for anything else. i just use the sony headphones for monitoring ( the ones that came with the scarlett studio package werent very good) and then for non recording ( listening while playing/noodling) i use the kustom sienna or the THR amp not shown

Matching beer and headphones nice

Corners are fairly problematic for mixing monitoring from speakers. Headphones are definitely the ticket. I'm also in a corner and use my HP's 90% of the time

That's a nice lil' cozy area.

You might want to post it in the recent previous "Where Do You Record?" topic that has several examples of these types of super-modest setups.

It's always nice when you can find a bunch of examples from a single post. It holds down the number of searches someone has to do to get multiple examples from.

Our local bar has it's fair share of advocates for lager, V8, and a healthy amount of Frank's hot sauce. I forget what the common name of the concoction is. (All in the same glass...) It's OK, but I'm gonna go with any IPA straight up.

I had never heard about or seen it until (in a past life) I tended bar at a Biker Tavern. It was remarkably popular especially among the biker chicks and biker old ladies -go figure

Does not appear to be a good space to record in for clarity and accuracy but if you get results you're happy with then great. Keep at it.
