Studio
“we decided to go for Cubase, because we read somewhere that Daft Punk used it.”
“The familiarity of Cubase and the speed of Ableton.”
“A lot of basslines come from Sylenth1”
“After that, it's Native Instruments all the way: Kontakt, Battery, Reaktor. We love them!”
“You have to be careful with Reaktor, though… you can end up getting way too deep into the programming.”
“we invested in a pair of Mackie HR824s and worked out where we were supposed to position them.”
“The main one - now powered by an iMac - plus a MacBook Pro to travel with and a MacBook Air for live.”
Early days
“We had an early Native Instruments Pro-53 and the very first version of Reaktor, which we used a lot.”
“the only thing we could afford was [Propellerhead] ReBirth.”
“Our main effect was an Ibanez bass distortion pedal.”
