A must have plugin

Be it the Universal Audio version or the Plugin Alliance Version, this plugin is kind of important in my workflow to shape drums and other percussive sounds to make them stand out even more in nowadays music. Everything is about being direct and clear and kind of hyperrealistic, and this is where this plugin helps if you are after that and music production is your living.

This is probably the cheapest old school classic Mic you can buy

The Sure SM58 is around since decades and has not changed since. It is super robust, always delivers a workable sound and is still affordable unlike other pieces of professional hardware.

My SM58's survived rainfall, sandstorms and really high drops, and they still work. So if you are looking for a performance microphone to use on gigs, this is the cheapest good option. It is even possible to record with those mics in the studio, which is unbeatable at that price point. A really expensive condenser microphone is probably going to sound crisper and cleaner in the studio, but sometimes it is more about the content and the creativity, so don't let that hold you back.

One of the my favourite EQ plugins to add some "air" to vocals.

This version made by plugin alliance sounds exactly the same as the UAD version. I am using this version and I am perfectly happy how close it comes to the original hardware as well.

One of the cleanest and most effective plugins I know of

Well, pretty much all Fabfilter plugins are pretty awesome, amazingly easy to use, and you get a lot of visual feedback on the screen in regards your settings changes. So it actually even helps to learn more about compression and limiting.

One of the best sounding Piano Plugins!

Well what can I say? I have used the 2 previous verions of it, and these plugins keep getting better and better. The fact that I can calibrate my keyboard specifically to my keyboard and the way I play, makes it feel very playable and natural. I have long nightly headphone piano practice sessions with this plugin.

This Plugin sounds nice and clean!

I used to just use the stock plugins to widen sounds, and it worked just fine. But this plugin gives me more control over what frequency range I want to widen, and which range do i want to leave untouched to keep the energy. This was the main reason why I bought this plugin. It works just great for me.

One of my favourite DAW for creative music production!

If I need good ideas and I have an idealess day, Ableton's workflow helps me to come up with something unique. I am normally used to the linear workflow of normal DAW's, so this makes me think in new ways, and therfore I come up with different ideas. So great software in that regard.

It works, and does not colour the sound

I have been using this for years now. I don't own a lot of Behringer equipment as I am a bit cautious, but this one is hands down a very reliable product.

this mic is probably 30 years old, but still sounds great

one of my favourite mics for all sorts of applications, even for vocals it sounds amazing! I can definitely recommend this!

Great little interface, perfect for travelling

This is a very good and workable sounding interface at an amazing price point. You definitely won't feel bad buying this, as it just works and sounds great.

Amazing clean sounding audio interface!

I am a fan of RME, as they don't seem to colour the sound and they give a very workable clean signal at a reasonable realistic price point. The drivers are rock solid, I never had an issue with restarting it or any other strange noises coming through.

They sound great and I can work with them!

Some people find them harsh, but this harshness helps me with my mixing a lot. A lot of people are saying that they don't sound flat... I don't believe that any speaker is perfectly flat, anything is a compromise. Get used to your speakers and you can mix on them. Their job is to reveal things, and these ones certainly do the job.

Fantastic secret little helper, especially on the drum bus!

This thing just sounds amazing to me. I love it on the drums, it makes them nice and punchy. And you have got a sidechain input, which makes it amazing if you want to sidechain your synth in the real world :)

Amazing midi interface!

This thing is well over 15 years old I believe. I bought it used on ebay, and it still works flawlessy to this day... I never had a problem with it, it never gets too hot and it just works... I normally completely forget about it being there, it is that good :)

Great keyboard and feel, horrible colour and very heavy:)

It is not the most beautiful piece of equipment, and that is down to colour and form factor. However, most of the case is made out of metal which I like. The quality is really good, but it is really heavy.

The keyboard is very nice to play which I love, so I would recommend this keyboard to any piano player out there at that price point.

It is okay, it does it job...

Well what can I say about a knob? I am quite happy that the case it metal and it seems sturdy enough for my likings. (I hate flimsy plastic cases). However, it could be slightly heavier, as the cables and plugs going in it are heavier if you are using Neutrik stuff, so I had to tape it down to my table to avoid it falling down. The Mute button leaks a bit of sound, and so does the knob as well. It crackles after 3 years of use as well, when touched.

It works, nothing so special though

I needed a smaller masterkeyboard because I was moving to London and rent prices for small flats cost a fortune. This keyboard does this very well for me. I am not so much a controller guy, so the Native keyboard would be overkill, but I have mapped the faders and buttons to a few of my favourite soft synths, and it works just well, especially at that price point.

Pretty amazing kit of gear!

It works like a charm with Ableton. Of course this is to be expected, but it really makes using Ableton on the fly more fun and intuitive. I would not use it to finish out a project, but certainly to get the creative process started.

Still one of my favourite controllers when it comes to Ableton!

It is solid, it works well, just the this mk1 version if you want to save yourself some money.

My workhorse!

I have the 12core Macpro maxed out with 128GB of ram and SSD drives. It just works fine for my needs.
