Armin Van Buuren's Gear
"The Ampex® ATR-102 Mastering Tape Recorder plug-in and the Studer® A800 Multichannel Tape Recorder plug-in tape emulations give a nice edge to bass tracks," Armin says, in this article.
"I also love the Precision De-Esser plug-in, and those are usually on our vocal tracks." - Armin Van Buuren.
"The FATSO™ Jr./Sr. Tape Sim. & Compressor plug-in is also a good one on drums specifically, to make the snare sound a little more crisp." - Armin Van Buuren.
"I always love to involve new ideas into my show. Crowd interaction is absolutely key to me and the Myo helps me with this. It can create a unique experience for the clubber and it feels like I'm even closer to them." - Armin Van Buuren.
Armin and his VJ(Sander) use the SMPTE signal from the CDJs to trigger the Video from the Resolume Arena Software in Sander's laptop.

Armin Van Buuren has stated, "The Arturia synths come awfully close to the original sound of the synths but without the hum and unwanted noises. They give you all the advantages of a plugin. The V Collection is now an essential part of my setup."
