Push is on a. category on its own, it seems unfair to compare it to other more traditional MIDI controllers. Push 2 is a carefully designed and tightly integrated all-in-one type of instrument. It allows you to control an extremely wide array of Ableton Live's features and capabilities and allows the user to spend more time playing an "instrument" than looking at the screen. It is one of the most inspiring pieces of equipment I've had, and it has become the heart of my studio in very little time.

This is the replacement of my old MBP early 2011. I'm loving everything on this machine, including the controversial touch bar.

RME is known for their world-class audio products. The software is as high quality as the hardware it is designed to run on. To say that it is stable and reliable, is an understatement. These sound-cards are so transparent and work so smoothly that you forget hat you have it, that is unless you work a lot with recording external sources and start using the immensely powerful internal Mixer, which turns this tiny box in a professional mixer with basically limitless expansion possibilities that make it a modeular center piece of every studio.

This tool is hands down the closest i've gotten to properly managing the bass frequencies in my music. If you, like most people, can't afford to properly treat a studio for bass management, this is the solution you've been waiting for. It is also a lot of fun, it adds a dimension to music that most of us only experience when going to a club/concert. Best buy in 2017.

These monitors have been with me for almost a decade and they are still one of my favourites. The sound is really detailed across the whole frequency range. The mids are clear and offer a good stage and are great for mixing as they will reveal everything. The highs are crips but not tiring, so you can spend long studio sessions with minimal fatigue. These coped with a Subpac allow you to hear the full frequency range all the way down.

I use these as a 3rd way of referencing my mixes, these monitors tend to sound somewhere in between a Hi-Fi setup and flat response studio monitors.

Don't let the size fool you. If you want to test the way your music will sound on a much larger system, this is the way to do it in a very compact size.

Ableton live continues to evolve, bringing in some welcome long-sought-after features and improvements as well as some new instruments and FX which make this an even more complete and slick package. This update looks amazing and is packed with tons of small improvements that make the workflow even more efficient. 10/10

Even if this synth is already 10 years old, it has aged gracefully and continues to be a powerhouse amongst hardware synths. The sonic palette is incredibly varied whilst retaining a characteristic quality of its unique Virus sound. Awesome alternative to soft synths for when you want instant tactile control and with its 16 channel multi-mode it is a great CPU saver too.
