David August

As we can see in this performance he uses Livid CNTRL:R.

The Prophet is a classic which might be in a lot of producers’ studios. Beside the sound of the synth, which I would describe as clean, precise and less dirty than the Juno, it’s the endless options you have with the Prophet which blow me away. I’ve had it half a year now and it seems the new possibilities and new ways of creating a sound will never end.

We can see a SCI Prophet 5 in this picture from his Instagram. New Link: Boiler Room Berlin -> We can see that he is using a Prophet 5 in his set.

"This is surely as much of a classic as the two synths I have. It’s just perfect for finding the right bass drum. Very user-friendly as well and powerful as hell. I wasn’t using it for a while but I’m discovering it again at the moment. Nearly every bass drum on my latest productions (unreleased as yet) came out of the Jomox. There are a couple of parameters I usually always put on a certain value – you have to figure it out, but once you have your workflow with it, results come quickly."

In the Resident Advisor session titled "The Definition of Happiness," David August is seen using a DJ Tech Tools Midi Fighter 3D, positioned on top of the Fender Rhodes Mk II, next to the Livid CNTRL:R.

I was searching for new monitors two years ago and tried a couple of pairs. The usual ones: Adam, K+H, Dynaudio… but then Martin (Stimming) told me about PMC and about how good they are. It’s an English brand. I tried them out and I must say, I haven’t heard anything comparable at the price. They have such a neutral frequency response, such a bright and clear ‘room realisation’ and an honest way of reproducing music. The only missing thing for electronic music might be the deep sub frequencies – I bought the Adam Sub8 as an extension

When I bought myself a new sound card two years ago I thought about buying a small one or just something bigger. I knew I wouldn’t use all the functions immediately but I knew as well that I wouldn’t regret buying it. Beside the fact that I have been always in love with RME – you just plug it in and can start to work and it never (and I mean never) disappoints you. I am now using a lot of slots I couldn’t get with a smaller interface. There is just no other brand with such an amazing price to performance ratio. Highly recommended.

We can see this pedal in this video at 4:14
