ABLETON LIVE 10 “I produced the recent Life Forms EP on Ableton Live. I was a sworn Logic user for many years, but the lack of flexibility with audio – things like warping, pitching and time-stretching – set me off on a search for a new DAW. I tried out all the well-known options – Reason, Cubase, etc – and settled on Ableton. I absolutely love the sequencing capabilities in the arrangement view, plus how quick and easy it is to work with large sections. And now we have the ability to group multiple levels of groups.”
SLATE VIRTUAL MIX RACK “I’ve been a Slate Bundle subscriber for a long time and use the Slate Virtual Mix Rack on almost every track. I like how different their EQs are from each other. It gives you the choice to go with a subtle, transparent mastering EQ like the Slate FG-S, or use a more coloured option, like the FG-N, which looks like it’s modelled on an API EQ. I also throw the VCC Channel plugin on most of my tracks, as it emulates an analogue channel strip on the way in. Revival is also present on many of my tracks. It adds just the right amount of brightness without really cranking up all those undesirable frequencies. Another bonus of the Virtual Mix Rack is that it isn’t too processor-intensive, so you can add as many as you need without issues.”
