Since the boom of the personal recording studio I have become bigger geek than
ever. I spend every chance I get in the process of building my home studio. The
studio is functional as a post production facility. It’s the heart of my music
world; it’s where I rehearse, write and record my ideas and develop projects. At
the moment I am capable of recording all instruments, except drums. Here’s a
list of my studio gear:
