The Tools of the Tirade
The Grinding of the Gear
Guitars
For the most part I dig EBMM and PRS electrics and Martin is still making killer acoustics
Amps
The Fractal Axe-FX II XL+ is awesome but I still dig my amps
Bogner Siva
Swart Atomic Space Tone Pro
Mesa Boogie Studio Preamp
Vox AC15 HW
Marshall Super Lead
My new favorite thing in the world is the Universal Audio OX
Microphones
I've got a bunch of them around here but I really like the Microtech Gefell UMT 70s with the famous M7 capsule (It's the original Neumann sound)
Effects
I have a ton of pedals and assorted outboard gear but the Axe-Fx has pretty much replaced all that. The VG-99 is still with me for bass and synth duties. Two things I tend to use, still, are a Lyndhurst compressor and, once in a blue moon, the trusty Full-Drive 2 Mosfet or a Sparkle Drive Mod
Synths
Korg Kronos Special Edition, Korg Minilogue, Yamaha Motif Rack ES, Spectrasonics Omnisphere, a the Arturia V Collection
Drums
I sold my acoustic Mapex kit and have replaced it with a Roland V kit. But I did save all my Meinl cymbals and Pearl hardware
The limitations baked into the Roland brain have been rectified with the addition of Superior Drummer 3 -- a brilliant piece of software
Interface
UAD Apollo Quad + Twin Quad
Computer
iMac
DAW
Logic Pro X
Plugins
Oh, I went a little nuts with the UAD plugins. Let's not get into all that ;-) I like Sound Toys as well and a few from Brainworx
Other
My two favorite things: the Herman Miller Aeron chair and Sonarworks Reference 4 monitor calibration system
