Built like a tank

Lasts for decades, I love using these. I have never really had an issue using any turntables, however once I started using a 1200 I realized why so many people swore by them, these things are built so solid. hands down the best table I have used for scratching. And they have a super clean sound when I used them with a Shure M447 cartridge for sampling as well.

Great sounding VST for an affordable price

Great collection of vintage synthesizers, organs, pianos, and modular synths. I have not used too many different virtual synthesizers but I do have to say that using this means I do not have to use many other programs, this usually has everything I need for song writing. All of the organs that are setup are all very warm and crisp sounding, just like using the real thing. I am always weary of using virtual organ synthesizers bc certain companies lack the vintage warm sounds that have been used for decades, however upon my initial use on Analog Lab 3 I found that was definitely not an issue. All of the keyboards that can be brought up can also be layered with another keyboard or synthesizer so you can create your own combinations and edit your sounds together. Each VST has a ton of different editing features as well as a set of effects that can be utilized within the same program. You can save and edit your own patches and bring them back up for more editing at any time. You can also save playlists of your favorite instruments to use. All in all I would highly recommend using this program if your looking for some solid and affordable VST synths to work with. These also mix very well with analog synths that I have run into my program as well as any other keyboard or instrument I might be using.

amazing upgrade from using a 2000XL. The 2500 is a beast and in all the right ways.

Having an on board hard drive and built in effects makes this MPC my favorite. Using an MPC is one of the best and most fun ways of sequencing beats and songs. It is a great tool for any studio productions and creations, as well as an awesome tool for using live as well. I got into playing live drums and beats and using this as an instrument and live trigger was amazing, super smooth pads, excellent editing capabilities. This would be a great tool for someone to learn how to sequence beats and songs as well as an amazing piece of gear for seasoned producers as well.

Excellent computer for recording and production.

I use Studio One 3.0 and Logic Pro X on my iMac and after switching from analog recording to using a computer for just about everything, I have to say, I love it. I have everything Apple, I currently use an Iphone 6, iPad, iMac, and I still have a few iPods as well. I love these guys, and for art and music these computers are some of the best.

Super sleek look, I just love the white speaker on the black cabinet.

These monitors are amazing. Super clear and loud bass frequencies along with excellent mid and high ranges as well. Very loud and clear. I use these for all of my production and song mixing. Well worth the money, for around 5-600 for the pair, its a price that cannot be beat for professional grade monitors.

Easy to use, nice compact setup, smooth knobs and faders, and the keys and pads are very responsive.

Very easy to setup and use in conjunction with Arutrias Analog Lab VST collection of Vintage Synths, Organs, Pianos, and Modular Synths. Huge collection and super easy to program, edit, and add effects. Works seamless with the Analog Lab v3.0 which I have currently setup.
