Studio & Gear

---

My home studio is tailored to my specific needs. I can record, mix, and produce various instruments, including acoustic and electric guitars, synthesizers, and other equipment.

The studio is centered around a MacBook Pro M1 and Scarlett 18i8 audio interface, complemented by ART TPS II and ADA8200 external preamps. For monitoring, I use Focal Alpha 65 studio monitors and DT990 Pro headphones.

My microphone setup includes the CX112, SM57, e609, and LCT 040 Match (for stereo recordings). For electric guitars, I use the Simplifier MKII amp simulator in the studio and my custom-made MMJUZ Dirty Sound amp for live performances.

Picking a favorite guitar from my collection is challenging. I'm primarily a "Fender player," proud to own a 1996 Fender Japan Stratocaster and a 1985 Japan Tokai Silver Strat. For variety, I also have a Schecter Corsair. For bass, I rely on my 1994 Fender Japan Jazz Bass.

My Epiphone FT-145 acoustic guitar, manufactured in Japan in the 1970s, has weathered many years of use but remains my finest acoustic instrument.

While I frequently explore new synthesizers, the DSI Mopho x4 and Bass Station II are permanent fixtures in my collection. Among my growing array of drum machines, the Vermona DRM1 stands out as my favorite.

The Organelle M has become a recent favorite, and I thoroughly enjoy exploring its vast creative potential.
