“I think Madlib pretty much just invents his own rules,” Peanut Butter Wolf muses. Studio engineer Dave Cooley claims that holds true even when a different setup is needed. For “React,” Jay Dee's beat and 'lib's turntable cuts were flown into Digidesign Pro Tools from separate stereo and 4-track masters. Madlib then tracked his vocals on an Audio-Technica 4033A and a Shure SM7, from there going into a Neve 1099 preamp, a GML 8200 EQ, a Universal Audio 1176LN limiting amplifier and finally a dbx 902 De-Esser. “We usually de-ess maybe 4 dB off of the vocals and then compress with a ratio of 8 to 1, which is pretty high,” Cooley explains. “But Madlib likes his shit loud, and it's mixed loud to begin with. He has a really cool ‘angular’ mixing style: Something is always sticking out.”

AT 4033 I believe. We did some stuff on SM7 on the unreleased (internet circulated) madvillain, but Doom decided to go for a more laid back, lo-energy feel (in his delivery) for the final Madvillain.

Madlib... SM57, SM7, or AT4033 if I remember correctly.... pre's would be mackie or VS880 straight in for the most part.

Doom... AT4033, don't know what kind of pre.

This is just what I remember....not positive though.

It was in Medicine Show in London, you can see him using it from 0:45 and throughout ( you can see it clearly at 4:00).

Keyboard can be seen in the photo. It matches the model of the "Rhapsody 490" and if you zoom in on the photo, it clearly shows "Elka Rhapsody 490" on the back of the keyboard.

The 'Clavia Nord Lead' can be seen in fourth photo of the Instagram slideshow.

In this photo, Madlib's Technics SL1210 turntable is visible, playing a yellow and black record.

In this article Madlib talks about the equipment he uses, including the SP-12.

"Are you still recording all analogue?

M: It’s a mixture. I keep my jazz analogue. But it depends. I mean, I still use my SP-12 and I’ve got an MPC-4000, but what I like the most is my little 303. A $200 machine, and I’ve done everything on that. So that shows you that you don’t need all of this other stuff."

As seen in 'Behind the beat' book studio picture, circa 2005

Evidence confirming Madlib's use of the Akai S5000 sampler can be observed in the music video for "Crate Diggin'" by Lootpack, where, at the 1:01 second mark, the sampler is visibly situated beneath a Roland VS-880 digital recorder within the studio setting. This visual documentation is provided by the official music video hosted on the Stones Throw YouTube channel, underlining the Akai S5000's role in the production of numerous beats for Lootpack.

In this picture, you can see Madlib playing the Roland Fantom-X7.
