My Studio Equipment

In my home studio I run Apple Logic Studio. For I/O I use a Presonus Firestudio Tube. For voice, I use the equipped tube preamps with analog compression. My go-to vocal mic is a CAD GXL2200. Sometimes I will use a Shure SM7D to get more of an intimate, radio-friendly tone. My mic locker is equipped with moving coil, ribbon and condensor mics and I have both tube and solid-state preamps. I also have access to a studio that runs a full on ProTools HD system, including remote-controlled preamps, A/D converters capable of 192 kHz, the Avid D-Control console, and Genelec 7.1 surround system. If you have any other questions about my equipment, feel free to email me.
