About Gesaffelstein's gear.
What synths does Gesaffelstein use?
Gearnews reported in 2024 that he got a Korg MS-20 for his studio and that a Roland SH-101 is also in his studio. It also names the Roland MC-202 and the MFB Synth II as synths he has used live.
What DAW does Gesaffelstein use?
Gearnews describes the MFB Synth II as a synth he has used in his Ableton Live setup over the years. He has not named a DAW in an interview we could find.
What does Gesaffelstein use live?
According to Gearnews, he has often used a Roland MC-202 in his live rig, alongside an MFB Synth II running in his Ableton Live setup.
Gesaffelstein is Mike Levy, the French producer from Lyon behind Aleph, Hyperion and Gamma and a co-producer on Kanye West's Yeezus and The Weeknd's Lost in the Fire. He almost never talks about his setup, so this guide is short: the analog synths and software a gear editorial has placed in his studio and live rig.
