I live in an apartment, and it looks like that's not going to change any time soon. Because of this, I've always used headphones for all of my production. I've been producing for too many years to keep doing this... I really need to get a somewhat legitimate setup with nice monitors and all that. I tried that once, but ended up selling the monitors because the bass was just way too loud, and I couldn't mix comfortably without worrying about my neighbors. Well that, and I needed the cash.
So I'm looking to rent a room/artist space/something like that where I could leave my desk and gear 24/7, but I'm not exactly sure how to find a place like that. I live in Chicago, so it seems like there should be something around here that would suit my needs, but I just don't know where to start looking. I feel like my music won't be able to reach the "next level" if I continue mixing and all of that in headphones, and I'm not going to be able to afford a house or more space or anything until I can (hopefully) make money making music.
Any suggestions would be greatly, greatly appreciated!
