My favorite DAW

This DAW can really do anything. I've used Pro Tools, Ableton, Logic, and FL Studio, and I just love the way FL Studio lets you lay things out however you want. The possibilities are endless. Plus, free upgrades to new versions for life!

Live and studio use.

I use this console to mix live if the band is under 16 inputs, and use it to route headphone mixes, playback, etc around the studio. Can also be used as a 16-input audio interface. For the price, you can't beat the X32 line in my opinion.

Wish I never sold it.

My first bass ever. I loved this bass. I honestly didn't care much about how it sounded back then, but I thought it was awesome. I love the finish and look of it still. I ordered a Peavey Millenium, it was backordered 6 months, then they sent me this. I was so mad at first, just knowing I waited so long to receive the wrong instrument. But then I realized it was worth over double what the millenium was, so I never complained and got it for more than 50% off brand new!

Not bad for what it is.

The keys don't feel the best, but they're velocity sensitive, which is nice. Solid little portable midi keyboard. You wouldn't believe how much something like this can get your creativity flowing just by playing around on it, even if you can't "play piano".

Great first mic.

If you're looking for your first microphone, and you're looking at mic's in this price range, look no further. For a budget less than $200, this is your mic.

Great for a vocal booth, or similar use. Do not recommend mixing with these.

These headphones regularly go on sale for $20. They don't have the best high end clarity, and they boost the low end. Has a sort of mid-scooped sound almost. I keep a few pairs around so I don't have to use my good headphones when I'm not mixing. Toss these to someone who wants to hear themselves when recording. But for $20 these are honestly kind of a steal. They're actually really comfy, and great to have laying around for when you don't need super precise headphones.

Super flat response, unbelievable comfort.

I cannot recommend these headphones enough. Most comfortable headphones I've ever worn, flat frequency response. I ALWAYS make sure to pop these on at some point during a mix session for reference, and they often reveal something I might have missed without putting them on.

Versatile fuzz, great on bass.

Before i had a parallel effects setup for my bass, I ran this fuzz on it because it was able to retain big low end. My biggest problem with fuzz on bass is usually sucking the life out of the low end. Play with the "Crunch" knob, and you can bring in really nice low end for some big fuzzy bass tones.

Perfect first interface.

I was recommended this interface by a family member when i first got into audio, and this thing was great. I've dropped this from about 3ft in the air onto a paved driveway, and it wasn't phased. I've traveled with it, toggled the phantom power several thousand times by now probably, and the only issue is now that its older, the pots are a bit scratchy, and sometimes when you're adjusting volume, the volume will be unbalanced from L/R. But it was $100, and has had a rough life. The "Mixer" knob on this is a hidden gem, perfect for sending vocals back to a vocalist with no latency, and being able to blend in the music also. Have since upgraded for more inputs.

Rock solid, workhorse entry-level monitors.

These were my first set of monitors ever. After listening to KRK's JBL's and other lower end monitors, I realized I had my hands on a decent set of monitors. These things have been running strong for 5 years now, and I did lots of mixes and masters on them (using headphones to frequently reference the low end since they don't go very low into the sub range) for the EDM scene. I've got over 200K plays in about a year on songs I mixed and mastered on these monitors, and the tracks have been played a major festivals to multi-thousand person crowds. They aren't too low end heavy, relatively flat. GREAT set of entry level monitors. I still use these for my vinyl listening setup.

Not a bad cabinet.

I bought this cheap online used, and swapped out the speakers for 2 Eminence Governors, and 2 Eminence Swamp Thangs to cater towards my doom metal tendencies. I also dig the grey carpet, I think it makes it stand out a little bit.

Great for practice, and smallish gigs.

This is a great amp if you need something bigger than a normal "practice amp", but don't wanna lug something too big around either. This amp has a DI out, so volume isn't much of an issue if you're playing live with a PA, and can plug the DI in for front of house, and get your bass in the wedge mix. I have played a few jam sessions with some guys who had 50w Tube heads and a drummer, and this amp barely gets loud enough to hear yourself if the guitar players like to be loud. Definitely need a monitor to play with a couple loud guitarists. But then again 100W of bass isn't a whole lot. For it's intended purpose, great amp. It's also worth noting, that the DI sends the dirt from the gain circuit, not bypassing it.

A great upgrade from more entry-level mics.

I had been on the market for a new mic, something I hadn't tried before. I upgraded to this from my Audio Technica AT2020, and was quite surprised at the difference. Less EQ needed to get the vocals to sound right. Just sounds silky smooth. Cannot wait to try more products from Rode.

A Godsend for doomsters.

I was trying to get a Boss FZ-2 sound, without paying the FZ-2 price. The Behringer SF300 does a good job sonically, but the build quality is bad. I had been searching awhile for a good clone, and came across Dunn Effects on instagram saying he would make some. I did a lot of A/B comparisons with the Behringer SF300, and this pedal sounds even better. Has all the girth i was looking for, with even more clarity and power than the Behringer. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a massive doom fuzz.

Parallel effects for bass & more.

There are multiple ways to use this pedal, but I use it to add fuzz to my bass tone, while leaving the low end untouched. I fuzz out 1 channel, and slowly blend it into the clean channel to get the tickle while retaining a solid low end.

wormhole_audio

The perfect amp for me.

If you're playing a gig with a PA and mic'ing your guitar cabinet, 15W is all you need, especially for smaller venues. It'll lower your stage volume, which will make the mix sound better to the audience. Plus, you'll be able to crank it and really get things saturated if you want. This sounds massive. I use this for stoner and doom metal, ,and it does the job spectacularly.

Amazing tone, bad build quality.

This pedal is an absolute monster on Fuzz 2 setting. Think Electric Wizard/Monolord type tones. This pedal is basically a clone of the Boss FZ-2 Hyperfuzz. Run it in a bypass loop so you don't have to ever stomp it, and it'll serve you well.

First bass I got after picking the hobby back up. Flawless instrument so far.

I love this bass. The classic P bass look, but I think the matte black finish and the color scheme in general just adds a slightly aggressive aesthetic that I really like. I have the version with the Rosewood fretboard. I'm currently running EMG GZR pickups.

Arrived with flaws because of bad quality control, but was quickly resolved and guitar is solid now.

I've always wanted a natural-ish finish SG. This one popped up on Musician's Friend Stupid Deal of The Day (Check it out if you haven't, some GREAT deals. Got $200 off this guitar) so I scooped it up. When it arrived, the fretboard was separating from the neck starting at the nut, working down towards the body about a half inch. Same thing on the other side of the neck, but smaller crack. Contacted gibson, they had it fixed and returned to me in 3 weeks and it's been a great guitar since. Stock pickups still (for now)
