What makes the music come to life?
It takes a lot of instruments and gear to get the right sound. Even the studio atmosphere plays a big role in the magic!
What makes it all happen. This beast of a PC features an Intel i7 10700f / 32Gb DDR4 @ 3600Mhz, RTX 3060ti, 1Tb WD SSD, 2Tb Samsung SSD, 3Tb Toshiba HDD Backup, & 4Tb Crucial HDD Backup.
The Casio CT-S1000V. This amazing instrument is full synth and EPIC Vocoder. It does everything but make coffee.
A Yamaha W7 music synthesizer workstation.
One of my favorites to work on, A MicroKORG S Synth. This little guy packs a lot in a small package and I can't count how many hours I have spent working on it developing new sounds for the music.
A Casio WK-1630. Not a professional instrument in the least, but it does write MIDI very well. This is the keyboard I have used from the very beginning, and I still use it primarily to create melodies and transer the MIDI to my DAW.
Other gear and instruments in the studio include a pair of PreSonus Eris E4.5-2-Way Near Field Studio Monitors, Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 v3 audio interface, MAONO 192KHZ/24Bit condenser microphone, SENNHEISER HD 599 Open Back Headphones, (2) acoustic guitars, 22" Buffalo drum, Tambo, Egg Shakers, 10" & 3" Tibetan singing bowls, Navajo cedar flute, Hopi gourd rattles and a 5' long cactus rainstick.
