David August

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

As we can see in this picture and many others he uses Novation Launchpad.

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.

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

"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."

It is under his Macbook!

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.
