For example, there might be something from a Yamaha DX200 - like a deep, bassy sound - and I’d use it as a kick layered with something from the Pearl Syncussion and maybe a couple of hits from a modulated 909 or something.

“I used mainly drum synthesisers and drum brains from the 70s and 80s, like the Syncussion and the Pearl Drum X. There’s the Ult Sound DS-4, which is an old Japanese drum synth, and PAiA DIY one. So, I use those to create the length, pitches, velocity and tone, which is what makes the drums so organic, I guess.”

In a feature by MusicRadar, Steffi showcases her studio, highlighting the Ensoniq DP/4 for its reverb and creative effects capabilities.

"When I finally got my Memorymoog, that was the synth to go to, but I know with certain things I maybe need a more stable synth."
