Studio
“And I got proper Pro Tools, though it's still just the LE M Box version.”
“the keyboard parts and drum parts and bass lines were all just created in Reason and recorded as loops in Pro Tools.”
“The 303 in Rebirth I still use all the time.”
“The first demos I made had samples and drums out of Rebirth and keyboard sounds out of Absynth.”
“I put them into Recycle and chopped them up.”
“Normally I use the Waves C1.”
“For MIDI I've just used the same synth I've had for donkey's years, which is the Yamaha SY35.”
“we redid it on a real old Juno”
“I've got some pretty dodgy Spirit Absolute Zero monitors that I've had for a long time.”
“Only problem is I've just bought a new G4 laptop and they don't do Rebirth for OS X yet.”
Stage
“I bought an Access Virus keyboard very recently for the live show”
“So we went and got an Alesis HD24 which allows us to have every part as a separate out”
