(samplers):

DJ setup with 2 x SL-120, 2 x CDJ-1000 and Rodex MX180 mixer.

+ tons of old spring/plate reverbs (EMT, AKG etc), delay/echo boxes, compressors, and EQ´s. A lot of this stuff I have now moved to my father´s studio, where I do my mixing/recording:

Full Digidesign surround setup, including:
Pro Tools HD3 Accel version 7.0 on Apple dual G5
D*Command mixer
DigiServer
192 x2
MIDI I/O
SYNC
PRE
etc. +
Rosendahl Nanosyncs
Studer A-80 1/4" x 2
Revox PR-99 1/4"
tons of reverbs, delays, FX, EQ´s, limiters/compressors, pre-amps, mics, guitar fx and amps, percussion and drums...
full surround mixing on Genelec 1038´s
Yamaha NS10´s
JBL 4412´s
Auratone Soundcube´s


BTW, check these two pics out:

These are my old DISA units - serviced and rackmounted by a pro German audio company (HE Studiotechnik).

The first one is two Danish DISA valve/vari-mu limiters from the 50´s/early 60´s. The units have been rackmounted, and attack/release/threshold/link etc. mods have been added. These DISA limiters are the inpiration for eg. the Manley limiter designs.

This unit just arrived back from Germany, so I haven´t had a chance to listen to it yet, but i reckon it wil murk any other valve limiter available.
Image

This picture is of two Danish DISA valve pre-amps. Phantom power and attenuation has been added to the units/rack. Sound amasing, really classic and smooth. A favourite pre of mine. I have five DISA pre´s in total (one spare, the other ones rack mounted)
Image

Finally HE Studiotechnik also rackmounted and serviced my two rare, German U73 valve limiters/compressors from the 60´s. Google TAB U73, and you will find some interesting info on these classics, that usually are described as the European Fairchild units. The U73 was used for broadcast and also disc/vinyl mastering/cutting.



Well, as you can see I have a craving for gear (new and vintage), and if it wasn´t for lack of space here I would have posted the complete studio gear list. :) All the gear my father and I have collected through the years.

Well, if you got any questions regarding mixing, recording, gear etc. please get in touch. I Wwuld love to share my passion and knowledge of great gear and general studio experience. All for the sake of enhancing the power of Dubstep (+ Grime, UKG and DnB too)!


Big up
