Use my link for a discount! https://www.bome.com/products/miditra... ► LANDR Studio: I have been using this since 2024, and transferred over from CD Baby. It has distribution, AI mastering, and loads of creative tools and it has transformed my workflow, and 10x my output. https://join.landr.com/referral/landr... Use code: 20_OFF_SUBSANDMASPLUGIN ► Ableton Live (Suite): I use the full version of Ableton and it is a game changer for live and studio uses. https://www.ableton.com/en/shop/live/ ► FCB1010 MIDI Foot Controller: A 10 pedal, 2 expression pedal unit which is built like a tank. I find this incredibly useful to perform live, but also to speed up my recording workflow. https://amzn.to/3KmHC4c ► Korg D1 Keyboard: A really good keyboard with 10 sounds, although I really only use the piano and ePiano ones myself. The feel of the keys is pretty sweet - it’s not exactly like a live piano, but it is close enough for me! https://amzn.to/46Ak1EG ► AKAI MPK Mini & AKAI MIDI Mix: These are small, and inexpensive MIDI controllers which I use in my live set. I use them to control the volume and effects within Ableton, and to launch clips. https://amzn.to/46RUecm ► Behringer UMC1820 Audio Interface: So good I bought two! One lives in my studio for recording, one comes with me on tour. https://amzn.to/4pDrD1M 👋 LET'S CONNECT!
