About this section…

This is going to be a new category for technical and production notes. In other words in 2010: software and usage notes. Underneath, I’ll put some old historical stuff for nostalgia purposes (e.g., back when I was recording sound modules in a studio on DA-88s, attempting to record a live drummer, etc.)

But as of the last few years, the most important tools in my studio are software:

  • Ableton Live music production and sound design system (at least that’s the way I think of it)
  • Propellerheads Reason music production system
  • Sony (previously Sonic Foundry) Sound Forge audio editor

and the following synthesizers and processors:

  • Cakewalk Dimension Pro synth
  • My new favorite soft synth u-he Zebra2
  • Ableton Operator FM synth
  • and many many others

and the following signal processors

  • Izotope Ozone mastering processor
  • Magnus Electronix Ambience reverb processor
  • Cakewalk Perfect Space reverb processor
  • Dirthead guitar amp simulator
