Not sure about buying one, but here is an easy one to make. I just haven't taken the time to do so.

I have the Studio-in-a-box from American Recorder and really like it - esp. because it's easy to set up when needed and folds up nicely when I'm done. Here's a link from Amazon, but shop around, I bought mine cheaper.

You got it cheaper than $59.? I don't understand why it isn't free shipping. The less expensive one qualifies for free shipping.

Whoops, you got me. I checked my records, and way back in Nov 05 I paid $71.24 but did get free shipping. So wow, at $59 it's a steal! Sorry for the misinformation. They say memory loss is the second thing to go when you get older. I forget the first...

This is the set up I have. The cost is worth the quality and being so easy to set up and use.

Ok Warren, you got me, I suckered, I ordered! The only bad I've read about this little set up is the lighting was weak. I will see, I'm not a pro so probably good enough for me.

I'll be very curious as to how you like it. A personal recommendation would probably convince me to finally get it.

I'll let you know but keep in mind, I'm no expert!

The problem with most of these "kits" is that the lights are generally not very good and weak in terms of output. You'll likely find that you need to replace them. If they do put out enough light, make sure you set your white balance to tungsten.
