Sometimes the best solution for a problem is staring you in the face. Fed up of having headphones lying around the studio? Then check this out.

Headphones are always lying around in a working studio, usually on a mixing desk, control surface or keyboard. There’s various tips doing the rounds on the internet for keeping them tidy, some use coat hooks, others use an IKEA coat hanger.

But there’s a high probability the solution is already in your studio… a guitar capo.

Yep, it’s one of those “of course!” moments when you see it.

But what about when you need the capo? It’s highly likely you’ll be using the headphones too. Even if that’s not the case, it won’t be long before you’re looking for somewhere to keep your capo and your headphones… these make ideal bedfellows.

If you have a tip, product or idea which you would like us to consider as a find of the week, let us know and we’ll take a look. We can’t promise to run all of them, but we’ll try to include it.
