DJ Screw
DJ Screw's Studio Equipment
In this interview with Rap Pages from November 1995, DJ Screw mentions that for his (very few) original productions, he uses the classic E-Mu SP 1200.
In this picture of DJ Screw in his home studio, you can see the Black Face.
The picture shows a controller for Alesis ADATs, which is the Alesis BRC
The picture shows the compressor in the rack cabinet.
In the picture, the Cassette recorder is located in the middle rack cabinet.
At 1:20 in the song "Pimp Tha Pen" by DJ Screw, the beat switch is noticeable, with the acoustic drum samples transitioning to the distinctive sounds of the Roland TR-808 Rhythm Composer. Despite being slowed down, the iconic snare, hi-hat, and kick drum tones of the TR-808 are clearly audible. This track was released by Bigtyme Recordz/SoSouth and is auto-generated by YouTube.
