@12:38 "I just bought... East West Choirs"

Not sure what version of PCR is that - you can't see how many keys it has and that's the only difference. It may be PCR-500 or PCR-800.

MOTU Ultralight MK3 can be spotted in this photo Ilan posted on Instagram

@4:52 "Your plugin you guys just made... that is amazing... having it ready to go instead of searching through folder after folder."

@8:40 "When Sylenth came out... I was one of the first one's to buy it"

@10:45 "Yes, I use Ana as well"

@12:20 "I use Lush as well"

@12:30 "I use a lot of Omnisphere as well"

@18:40 "Sometimes I use presets from Sylenth or Zebra".

@33:58 "and on that channel you put like Invisible Limiter on"

@34:30 "I use this plugin called SoundGoodizer from FL Studios"

I interviewed iLan Bluestone on a Gibson Tour Bus about his music production style using SONAR. He mentions using Z3TA+ as well in the interview. Cakewalk is a Gibson Brand.

From Ilan's Tumblr blog: "I Bought the Eastwest symphonic orchestra GOLD plug-in that is worth every penny and I always manage to create a great top line using it. It is by far the best plug-in for doing string lines."

From Ilan's Tumblr blog: "Today, I find that when making music you dont need to have such crazy expensive equipment. Theres a lot of good synth plugins such as Sylenth, Albino, z3ta and Zebra!"

Ilan Bluestone shows off his KRK VXT8 Studio Monitors in his studio and says, "I love these Bad boys! #KRK"

In this photo of Ilan Bluestone's studio gear setup, you can see his primary monitors are KRK VXT8s, while his secondary ones are the Rokit 6. He likely tests his mixes on the smaller Rokits to make sure they sound good on a smaller system, while still being familiar with the overall KRK sound.

"I use this thing called the KRK Ergo system which is like an enhanced room geometry optimization unit. A lot of people are like, 'oh, don't touch that'[...] if you wanna be cheap and economical like I used to be[...] I highly recommend it because what it does is it cancels out all the frequencies that you have on your final mix for when you jump in your car and you're like 'why is my song too bassy', this thing really, by one button, it literally cancels out all those frequencies[...] that helped me on my final mixdown big time." (30:30)

"Trance Part 2. #Anthemtest"

Looks like a video made shortly after he made a music track. I am assuming he is in his own studio listening to his own speakers at this point of the video.

The video shows the distinctive special ribbon tweeter on the Adam monitor. In addition an early video on his Facebook feed shows the rounded front facing bass port. Just a glimpse.

When asked why he uses Calkwalk, Ilan explains that it's what he's used for so long that he can't seem to switch. "I've been using Cakewalk ever since" at 1:55

I don’t sleep much these days and when I do, I think I’m still writing music. The balancing act between touring and getting all this music out there is tough sometimes, but it has to happen. When I have a song that I am working on it’s almost like it possesses me and I have to finish it. It’s really one of the main reasons why I use SONAR; the fast workflow. I can work so quickly in SONAR and get songs out fast which is really part of the game today.

@8:30 "I've had a Korg Triton"

@8:27 "I've had a Virus B and a Virus Ti"
