“That's why I love working with the UAD Apollo's, they compensate for delay automatically.”
“I'm a huge UAD plugin fan”
“I basically bought it for its size, but came to love it for its sound.”
“I also mounted a pair of Dynaudio monitors for better sound if I'm working on this side.”
“I really love the Strymon pedals”
“It's a very rare stereo BBD delay / reverb from the late 70s / early 80s.”
“a Novation Supernova 2 (which I only use for the vocoder)”
“I don't use the One on every track, but it's a very powerful machine that I love just getting lost in.”
“Some of the aggressive hi-hats that you hear on 'The Hierophant' (1:37) were made processing a snare drum with the Clouds grain delay.”
“I've even named that track after the Rubicon oscillator that was used.”
Early days
“I would buy some equipment and use early versions of Cubase and Reason to work on my own songs.”
