PowerCenter Pro 240Mhz 604e running MacOS 8.6
Cycling '74 Max/MSP - programming and sound design environment. Right now
I use it for native sound generation and manipulation, but I plan on using
it for sequencing and composition in the future.
Alesis ADAT/Edit interface card for digital inputs (the Mac's AD/DA
converters suck so I use the converters on the ADAT)
Opcode Vision DSP for sequencing/recording/arranging/editing/mixing (soon
to be replaced with Cubase or Logic Audio due to Opcode's demise)
Peak 2.0 w/ Hyperprism Suite and Waveshell Suite for mastering, also for
sample editing and management.
ReCycle 1.7 for Sample slicing and management. If you use a sampler you
should really check out ReCycle. Some people will tell you it's only
useful for chopping up breakbeats but I have gotten some amazing textures
from chopping up other noises and assigning them to a key-range. I love
this program. Takes all the druge work out of sampling and lets you focus
on creative sound design. When combined with Peak, they are a powerful
duo bent on world domintation.
I have played around with some software synths, notably ReBirth and Koblo.
ReBirth is great for the 808/909 sounds but I am not a big 303 fanatic so
I rarely use this except for playing around. Koblo has some very good
capabilities. Very digital sounding but also very clean. Some latency
problems if you try to play it live but a faster system might take care of
that.
Hope this helps, good luck.
