What hardware do you use in your workflow?
What hardware do you use in your workflow? Posted on: 02.08.2010 by Dana Ordinario Just wondering what people like to use in there workflow. I mainly use Logic Studio well I try anyways but I would love to know what kind of hardware people have integrated into there workflow. Lately I have been believeing about getting a Magic Trackpad just because my current mouse is old an horrible. I currently just use a Midi Keyboard, I own 2 LPD8's that I use for DJing but was wondering if anyone uses other midi controllers in there day to day producing. | |

| Shawana Tjon 18.08.2010 | Cubase runs it all, but hardware wise I use.... 4 x analogue modular synths nord modular korg legacy ms20 controller korg ms10 korg sq10 roland mc202 korg poly 800 cz1000 jen sx1000 novation basstation a few samplers. |
| Reece Murray 16.08.2010 | M-Audio Axiom 25, APC40, Casio SK-1 (love it) Ableton, VSTs and Event PS10 monitors. I love real outboard gear though... |
| Cicely Mcilraith 16.08.2010 | Live, I use a bunch of controllers, but when writing music I usually find it faster to just draw in midi notes and use the mouse for other tasks. But I use a Trigger Finger when banging out drum/perc parts (it also can work nicely for basslines). And instead of drawing automations - especially the ones that go over several bars - I prefer to tweak a knob instead of drawing in a line. This gives the automation curve a more natural/human/organic sound. |
| Nichelle Salls 06.08.2010 | Just added a MiniKP to the live rig. So it's now laptop into BCD3000 into miniKP into Ground Loop Isolator into amp into speakers into awesomeness... |

I'm also in the process of building a talkbox, just waiting for some capacitors and i'll finish it up |
| Graham Frazier 03.08.2010 | Casio CTK-5000 Oxygen 8 (stickers are from an old mapping, it's got a whole new set now) Miracle piano (this old toy has great touch sensitivity, the main board is broken but it still sends midi) Korg NanoKontrol Novation Launchpad NI Audio 2 DJ JBL Control 2P's I know it seems like a lot of keys but actually i have more, this is just what i'm using right now. I've played piano for 23 years, and i like to be able to jump around quickly. I usually set up the oxygen 8 on my bass track, the Miracle on some pads/melodic stuff, and the Casio on the lead. |

| Korey Quines 03.08.2010 | I used to be all crazy about having keyboards and drumpads and stuff. Im not anymore since I dont feel the need, so the only hardware in use is my USB-mouse and headphones nowdays. I record ideas for melodies, basslines,drumgrooves (anything really) on my cellphone to remember them when I get home to produce if that counts. :P |
| Korey Ehman 03.08.2010 | I use a Macbook with Logic Studio, Tascam FW1804 interface and a Korg Microkorg which doubles up as a midi controller. |
| Nichelle Salls 03.08.2010 | For producing I use Reason with a Korg microKontrol and a Line6 UX1 as my audio interface. For DJing I use a Behringer BCD3000 with Traktor Scratch Pro. Audio straight out of BCD3000 and am looking to integrate the Korg into the live setup, as a way of having additional control (twist those knobs... PULL THOSE LEVERS!!!! MUAHAHAHAHA) |
