About me
Konbanwa!, I'm just happy that EM411 is still around after all these years.
I'm an engineer thats been building synthesizers for the past half decade.
Recently I've been experimenting with the synthpop / indy vibe, thanks for listening.

My Gear
Synth: Custom Analog modular - Musi Basis System (like a hotrodded / stylish Blacet, would be the closest example).
Rhythm: TR707 with Musi sound ROM expansion and MIDI sample dump transfers.
MIDI controller: Custom electronics KORG RK-100.
Sound card: EMU 1616m
Vocals: Shure SM7B
Monitoring: JBL Professional
Sequencing: FL Studio
Just the essentials.
I have some Moog and Sequential gear I'm fixing up / repairing lent to me from friends but really the only synth I've been using for the past year is my Musi modular. Together with FL I can layer or build pretty much anything. Yes it does take time patching everything in, and I have to decide on a final BPM before I start recording tracks, but I'm happy with the setup.
