Thomas Gold

I work a lot with mix busses in my DAW and I love the Focusrite Console, it just does the job and sounds great. Both modules are easily to adjust and work together perfectly. The sound is fantastic, the EQs don't get harsh or muddy at any point. You can make sounds shine in the mix in seconds; also warming up bass sounds and getting a tight and punchy low end is done quick and easily. Same goes if you want to get a vocal smooth and in-your-face. I like that you can get both - a clean and tight sound - but also a very analogue one. Great to have this in my setup - and it’s fun to work with!

In Thomas' Instagram photo of "My singaporean workspace for the next days...!", the 32-key Keystation is in front of his laptop. The square interface buttons on the left are hard to see but still distinguish it from other models of M-Audio controllers.

The Avalon's sliders, central meter, and power switch can be seen on the right part of the screen at the bottom most rack space around 1:19. At that particular time, those three portions are between Thomas' back and the chair.

"I just have a kick drum, which sounds like this... and this one is taken from the Stylus remix..." The screen then zooms in on the plugin. (3:19)

In this video at the minute 6:26 he use FATSO Jr./Sr.

At the minute 5:1o we can see Elysia Museq.

In "Thomas Gold In The Studio With Future Music Part 1", seventeen seconds in, the black 'teardrop' or 'bunny-ear' design of the NS-10M appears just to Thomas' right, as well as directly behind him.

Logic Pro can be seen on both of Thomas' screens (left with arrangement window, right with mixer window) throughout the video.

Next to Thomas' laptop, you can see the Korg microKey 37 USB MIDI keyboard on the right. The "Korg" logo can be seen on the upper-left of the controller, and the number of keys would suggest that it goes higher than 25 (making the 37-key model a reasonable assumption). "hotel studio session in Floripa - inspiring view! :D #Brazil"

The API 2500 is the top-most module in Thomas' setup in his Instagram photo. "Setting up my 3 new little babies in the studio!! #morepunch #fatnesssss" (the one says compressor of course)

"...and then I used the Waves L3, very good, uh, it's... kind of neutral, uh, regarding the sound, but you can do lots of limiting and compression here..."(20:55)

Working with Harrison, Thomas Gold is seen using the barefoot MicroMain27 Gen2 monitors.

In this video at the minute 5:55 we can see he uses bx_control V2.

In this video at 5:20 we can see Brainworx bx_digital V2

Seventeen seconds into Part 1 of Thomas Gold's "In The Studio" feature, these cream-colored speakers can be spotted on top of his Yamaha-NS-10Ms.

The right part of this keyboard can be seen peeking on the left hand side of the screen at around 0:18.

The remote control can be seen on the left part of the screen lying on the desk at around 0:18. The rackmount interface itself can be seen in the top rack space behind him at 0:18.

Can be seen on the left part of the screen at around 1:18 in the bottom most rack.

This module can be seen above his Avid HD I/O at around 1:18 in the left-most rack.

"When I did the toms, I used the Machinedrum, one of my favorite piece of gear at the moment, and the drums sound like this... and I just used here... you see the buttons? These are the three sounds, and I just tuned them in a certain way so they fit to the bass and they fit together like a melody... and the good thing is you can really go here and tune the single drums... and make them sound like a chord..." (1:41)

"Love my daily breakfast sausage!! @dadalife #bratwurst"

On the bottom-left side of Thomas' Instagram photo, you can see the titular big knob of the Mackie Big Knob.

"just started using this synth again...some phat bass in the making!!! #boooooom!" On the left side you can see the name Studio Electronics, and the rest of the interface is also consistent with the SE-1X.

An instance of this plugin can be seen running on-screen at around 5:08. At 5:10, the camera pulls back and we see a fuller view of the plugin.

"Here I have some... the PSP Vintage compressor, but only to add some warmth to it, some body. You can hear it, that's more bottom there."(5:52)

"And, on the clap, for example, I have only a... the... some, um, low-cuts on there, I often use the Waves Q4, and I have all four low-cuts on, so you can have a steep EQing curves..."(6:04)

In his Instagram photo, Thomas has several of the Komplete 9 installation CDs scattered on his desk. "Installing session in progress!"

At the 7:16 mark of his video with Future Music, Thomas is running an instance of SV-517 on the left screen. The camera zooms in on the plugin so we get a clearer view of it in action.

The LA-610 is displayed with the logo and label towards the upper-right of Thomas' Instagram photo. It's a very clear view of the right-hand side of the equipment.

"There's some EQing on it... it's where I boost the mids a little bit." (10:54) The camera then zooms in on the Classic Q at 11:01, before another plugin covers it from view.
