The Glitch Mob

In these photos from The Glitch Mob's performance at Marathon Music Works in Nashville, each member's setup includes a Livid BASE controller on their left-hand side.

"What is this, this is the Akai MPD 24..." "Yes, um... so this is basically the Akai MPC series but minus the sampling capabilities and just the pads, obviously you get six sliders, you get 8 knobs, and it only sends MIDI, so... you could load up any sounds you wanted, and you can actually play them on the pads..."

This miniature controller appears about four seconds into this Vine video, in the top left hand corner of the shot, after the camera stops panning for a moment.

"So the Lemur is essentially the heart of the whole operation... it's cool because we can design the interface to do whatever it is we want." (0:53)

"new toy thanks @ableton :)"

In this photo, on The Glitch Mob's Facebook, four Apollo 16s can be seen.

"this new @NI_News komplete kontrol is so powerful"

"There are four Universal Audio Apollos - presumably for multichannel audio outputs and effects/mix processing."

“Little Kim,” the performance rig by Matt and Ed includes: MOTU MIDI routing"

In a tweet from Ooah, he displays his newly-arrived, "sexy" Ableton Push 2.

In this early video of The Glitch Mob, we see the members taping multiple Trigger Fingers to a table to perform live on the streets of San Francisco.

“We’ve been using Waves plugins for over 10 years and they are still an integral part in our workflow today. From Enigma, MetaFlanger, R-Vox to H-Reverb, F6 and more. There are too many gems to list!“

There is a picture that shows The Glitch Mob using IZotope Ozone 5 in this interview.

There is a picture of The Glitch Mob using FabFilter Pro-Q in this interview.

There is an image in this interview showing The Glitch Mob use the Universal Audio Neve 88RS Channel Strip Plugin.

There is a picture in this interview showing The Glitch Mob using the UAD Cambridge EQ Plugin.

When asked "What are some other tools and plugins that are integral to what you do?" The Glitch Mob replied: "At this point we would have to say that we cannot live without Voxengo SPAN Plus, DMG Audio Equilibrium and a good LUFS meter like the iZotope Insight or the ToneBoosters EBU Compact."

I would be willing to go as far as saying a lot of the “Glitch Mob sound” relies heavily on iZotope Trash 2

"Also LFO Tool is our go to sidechaining plugin. We love it because it is so consistent every time. The problem with sidechain compressors is that some of the time you will actually get distortion from the compressor depending on how it’s set, or what the key signal is. Sometimes you want that distortion, but it’s really nice to have something that is transparent and produces the perfect ducking curve every single time."

"The basic Brainworx BX Limiter is my favorite. It’s one of the few where you can drop the threshold and not hear the source the material getting louder. Very few limiters work like that."

"We used a lot of the plug-in called the Olga. It's by this company called Stillwell Audio. They're great. They're awesome plug-ins. We use mainly the Olga synth. It's really a cool synth."

"We also use AudioEase Speakerphone... actually, all the filters and modulations in there turned out to be amazing. We used the vibrato a lot. But also just for filtering things and creating atmospheres. There''s nothing quite like it. The ability of that plug-in to mangle sound is like no other. I would say that the sound of the whole album is directly related to our use of the UAD [plug-ins] and Speakerphone."

"We use reFX vanguard quite a bit."

"Another thing that we'll generally do, um, with the space barfs, is basically, we'll use the Roland Space Echo... this plugin will actually feed itself back, so if I turn up the intensity... you can hear it coming in... [it's] one of our favorite plugins... really trippy plugin."(4:41)

The third clip in this Vine shows the Studer processing a bassline.

"mixing gnarly basslines today"

The Glitch Mob had posted a picture of their plugins they were said to be using on a project. Tone2 Akustix Enhancer can be seen in the upper left of the photo.

"plugin chain of the day... new album is coming along http://instagr.am/p/K_AYN4qLJE/"
