Ultimate Mac Setup
/ Desk Tour! (February 2014) #Helpful Post
today's
video is made possible by Hulu
Plus
for a free extended two-week trial
at
over Hulu Plus com / TLD hey guys
johnathan
here with TLD back with a desk
and
setup tour this was inspired by
mkbhd
s set up to our project for 2014
but
this has been highly requested for
the
past few months so I'm happy to
finally
bring it to you I think
obviously
the foundation of any desk
instead
of tour of course is a desk this
is
the Galant from Ikea there's actually
a
few different configurations you can
set
up this is a 2-piece set up so of
course
there is the first piece in the
left
hand corner followed by the bulk of
the
table the body which you can see
here
and actually before this video I
had
a third piece that actually extended
out
right here but I recently just kind
of
took everything apart took that off
just
to keep it simple and less
cluttered
so I guess it makes sense to
go
from right to left and if you guys do
miss
anything I'll have everything that
I
covered in this video and even things
that
I didn't feature linked down below
so
first up is the very well-recognized
Homer
Simpson doll and yes he is not
wearing
any pants he is in a bath towel
and
actually up until this point any
time
anybody would ask me where I got
him
from I had no idea because it was a
gift
but recently I actually found him
so
again he's linked down below you guys
can
pick one of these up if you want
now
of course along with Homer he is
wearing
some skull candy Derrick Rose
bull's
headphones and these are
completely
aesthetic I don't use these
for
listening at all they just kind of
complimented
Homer and go with the fact
that
I like the Bulls next up I'm sure
you
guys have also seen these zombie in
previous
videos you guys have asked what
that
is this is the Walking Dead limited
edition
season 2 blu-ray so we've got
the
screwdriver to the eye and it's
actually
acts as a lock so if you pull
it
out you actually can't lift it up
stays
lock and if you a killer Walker
BAM
right into eyes dad opens up and
there's
blu-ray so right next to that
guy
is season 3 I'm not sure but those
to
me look like Michonne's dudes if you
guys
agree let me know the comment down
below
above that is a little Android guy
and
Batman those also be linked it down
below
and of course how could we forget
mr.
Walter White eight
a
Heisenberg these little bobblehead guy
and
what's cool is these little glasses
actually
come off let me see if I can
get
a little closer for you guys I am so
next
up is actually my desktop speakers
and
I get questions on these all the
time
pretty much every single video that
these
are viewed and I get asked what
are
these and these are actually pho Cal
XS
2.1 they're little on the pricier
side
in comparison to other desktop
speakers
but hands down they are my
favorite
set of desktop speakers that i
have
ever owned
now
before i pick these guys up i
actually
only use studio monitors what
you'd
use for audio production but i
want
something smaller more compact and
i
absolutely love these things i don't
think
they would fully replace a desktop
monitor
or audio monitor setup but for
basic
audio editing and video these
things
have served me great so as the
name
implies it is a 2.1 setup you got
one
speaker on the right one on the left
and
the sub woofer is hanging down there
in
the bottom corner and jumping back to
the
desk these are the Sennheiser RS 180
wireless
headphones if you guys are in
the
market for a killer set of wireless
headphones
I absolutely love these guys
you
can see it as a built-in charge
station
so just take it off set it back
it's
charging pull these off real quick
they're
extremely extremely comfortable
you
can see how padded they are and they
have
killer sound quality for a wireless
set
of headphones so again if you are
looking
for one I can wholeheartedly
recommend
these guys now some of you may
recognize
this guy this is the Apollo
twin
by Universal audio I just covered
this
on the channel a couple weeks back
I
actually just got this one in for
review
so this is going to let you
record
guitar bass vocals along with
their
killer plugins so I'm super
excited
to test it out and put it
through
its paces so definitely stay
tuned
and subscribe if you're interested
in
something like that now this guy
right
here is my favorite mouse ever the
Logitech
performance MX once I use this
I
couldn't go back to a magic Mouse or
any
other Mouse like this it is
hands-down
my favorite Mouse to use now
behind
the Apollo twin is the Galaxy
Note
3 have actually been using this a
lot
lately so if you guys are interested
in
some coverage on that even though
it's
been out for a couple months let me
know
by hitting that like button next to
the
no.3 is a little Derrick Rose pop
figure
is these are okay luckily even
though
the Bulls lost the Rose for the
season
they're making me extremely proud
to
be a Bulls fan
so
I'm going to move him out of the way
for
just a second we have Alice C rugged
Thunderbolt
Drive and also a SanDisk USB
3.0
thumb drive which I use all the time
this
thing is super super awesome so
going
to put this guy back right here I
actually
have the Thunderbolt cable from
this
hooked up to the Apollo twin right
now
so Eric rows back in spots
and
next to that is a kingston SD card
readers
USB 3 since the mac pro hang out
right
here doesn't have an SD card
reader
this is filling the spot for that
below
that is a Western Digital I
believe
this is a one terabyte USB 3.0
drive
in fact I kind of just switch back
and
forth between this cable right here
and
behind these two is an apple Airport
Express
which I use actually as a Wi-Fi
extender
to the extreme which is located
in
another room now getting back to the
Mac
Pro this is actually a different Mac
Pro
than you guys have seen on the
channel
this is actually my customer
order
that finally came in the a core
d700
model so definitely look out for
comparisons
of this versus the 6 core
and
also versus the iMac those are
coming
very soon but in the meantime if
you
guys miss any cover than the 6 core
or
comparisons against the iMac I will
have
that also linked down below
now
in conjunction with the Logitech
mouse
I also use the Apple Magic
Trackpad
I use at a left hand side just
for
gestures and swiping left or right
zooming
in and out and things like that
my
keyboard is the Logitech K 750
Wireless
solar-powered keyboard so it'll
actually
use the light within the room
and
power itself and you never ever need
to
change batteries another thing that I
really
like about this guy is the fact
that
it has a built-in number pad so
some
keyboards are smaller the more
compact
but they're missing the number
pad
so I don't mind giving up a little
bit
of that compact miss for the
flexibility
of having the number pad
built
into the keyboard moving on up
right
now I have the Mac Pro hooked up
to
Apple's Thunderbolt Display and even
though
it's not 4k and it is in dire
need
of an update to complement the Mac
Pro
for me it's the best option right
now
and I still love this display now to
the
left that is my late 2013 MacBook
Pro
this is a 2.3 gigahertz GT 750i
model
with 16 gigabytes of RAM not only
do
I use this on-the-go obviously but if
something's
being used with the Mac Pro
and
rendering I can also use this as
secondary
production I have the
Thunderbolt
cable actually close by
behind
the Mac Pro so if I wanted to I
actually
switch back and forth and use
this
with these under bolt display
behind
as
a pair of bear dynamic DT 990 Pro
headphones
kind of a headphone junkie
below
that is a coffee mug that I
actually
used for various things guitar
picks
SD converters headphone adapter
just
kind of miscellaneous stuff
scissors
pens markers got the Nexus 7
iPad
Mini this is the LTE Verizon 64
gigabyte
model got a little container
back
there more headphones right here
these
are the aerodynamic custom one
pros
these are killer headphones and
actually
just got the audio technica ath
m50x

just
miscellaneous cables here this is
where
I keep all the product so you can
see
I'm not going to go over everything
this
is the box to the apollo twin we
got
these sony rx100 mk2 box right here
which
i'm actually using to shoot this
was
it's absolutely awesome camera we

obviously
a rate set up in Thunderbolt

guys
haven't guessed yet I am a Bulls
fan
little LED light Android guy with a
broken
antenna he's injured in action
this
guy right here actually forgot to
show
you is the Sennheiser MKH - 416
shotgun
mic absolutely killer Mike loved
the
quality of this guy use it for all
my
voiceovers I think that just about
wraps
up the project tour we got some
guitars
on the wall and the funny thing
is
those lights are about 25 bucks from
Home
Depot and I have an up
created
those so through all the years
through
the camera upgrades to the audio
upgrades
I have an upgrade lighting yet
so
that I think is on my list for 2014
