Raven Desk
This Desk is really nice . Heavy Duty my only complaint is there’s no room to put other equipment like your studio interface, preamps etc......
by Reneé from Winter haven on
Very Happy
I bought this a few years ago, and it's still the best studio set-up I've ever owned. Logic, UA interface, raven core station, decent mic, headphones, monitors, and plugins are all you need to make pro quality music at home.

Raven Core Station- Kissimmee Florida.
I have to start saying that I love my Raven Core Station and it is really impressive and an important part of my home recording studio. It is a solid and strong desk that is very helpful to feel comfortable working hours in the studio and that improved my workflow a lot.
The sales representative was very kind and patient. However, I have to say that the shipping process was a nightmare. I don't recommend use FedEx as a shipping option for this desk or any freight. They are a mess with the orders and my desk ended in the limbo in their system. I received three calls to cancel and reschedule the delivery because the desk did not arrive at their location when it was supposed to arrive. After the third call at 8 am, I received a call from the truck driver asking where exactly I live because it was close to my house to deliver the freight. Thanks God that I was at home and I was able to receive the package. But, I do not recommend use FedEx as a delivery option.

I really love the customer service of this company and that everything I order arrives perfectly, but it was the first time I really thought I was going to receive a broken desk.
In conclusion, a great desk, I really recommend it if you have space and want to make your studio look great, but first, check all your shipping options.

Priced too high for me.
Before this desk was available, I purchased two Raven MTi2 monitors. The representative from Slate who I spoke with at one of the Sweetwater gear fest events mentioned that a desk for the MTi2's would come out soon. So I went ahead and spent over 2000.00 plus tax on 2 Slate Raven MTi2 touch screen monitors.

When the desk finally became available to purchase, I was quite annoyed that the desk was priced at $1500 with no monitors. So the $2000.00 I had already invested plus the $1500.00 for the desk puts me well over $3500.00, not including taxes.

After purchasing the 2 Slate Raven touch screens, I figured some sort of accommodation could be made where I would only have to pay $1000.00 for the desk as I already spent the $2000.00 on the monitors. After all the desk with 2 Slate Raven monitors only costs $3000.00. The ethical question here is, why would I have to spend a total of $3500.00 for the same thing that only costs $3000.00?

So, what are my options?
Option 1. Sell the 2 monitors I have for the exact price I paid for them which may take some time to find a buyer. Then, purchase the desk with the 2 monitors for $3000.00?

Option 2. Keep the 2 monitors and lose the extra $500.00 it will cost if I purchase the desk only. Then install my 2 monitors.

Option 3. Take $500.00 and build my own desk that will utilize the 2 Slate Raven monitors more effectively. Which will save me $1000.00 over purchasing the Slate desk.

Option 4 Donate them and take a tax write-off and go with part of option 1 and spend $3000.00 for the dual monitor desk.

The MTi2 monitors are still sitting in their original boxes for about 4 years now. Waiting while I complete building and wiring up my studio and find or build a desk that will best accommodate the Slate MTi2.

I contacted Slate, and all they said is that I would have to work out the pricing with Sweetwater, but Sweeywater has no control over the price I would have to pay if I wanted one. You would think Slate would offer a voucher for people who purchased one or two of their monitors.
