[mike nef]

So basically tell whats in your production / studio setup. Show pictures if you have some. I will be posting my pics in the next day or so.

As for me I have a Roland Fantom X6, A Microkorg, A Mpc 2000Xl, A Custom Built PC running Vista, A Mbox 2 & A Mobox Mini. I have Bhearinger Truth Monitors& a small set of M-audio monitors. I mainly use my Bherdynamic Dt770's headphones to mix with & the monitors for reference. I also have aBhearinger B2 for artists to record there ideas, as well as some yamaha mixer I rarley use. If interested you can check out some of my work at www.MikeNef.com

MPC 2000 w/8 outs & ASR-X Pro (not a good pic):



I found a way to use the ASR as a sound module,but I rarely use it since I sample a lot.

Not pictured is my turntable which is a basic Numark PT-01 (shooting for the high end Numark model.The time stretching feature on that thing is bonkers)
and my mixer is an Akai Remix 16 which ironically is also a sampler.

I don't have a ton of gear,but I like having the limitations though.

 

[mike nef]

yea limitations make you more creative in a sense

wow an asr-x, i didnt know people still used those, not tryna be funny but i havent seen one of those things since i was obsessed with asr-10s years ago

i use a mpc2000xl, zip drive, microkorg, alesis m1 actives that are pretty badly touched up now
and records u dont know about

 

[tommy wong]

thats tru, i forgot about that
i thought he switched to a large all in one workstation tho, or maybe he was just endorsing the product

 

[216time216]
