- Memento Mori -https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memento_mori
- Brian Eno and Oblique Strategies
- Mopho: Make me an offer!

- Even starts with a Brian Eno Quote!
Notes
- First off thank everyone who tuned in so far
- I'd like to thank Ian, Rene, Phil, and Vik for their ideas on marketing. That's coming soon.
- Just like the one on learning.
- Thank the likers
- Going to a folow me around the studio
- Chair. A nice chair in your studio is so important.
- Like a set of monitors, it seems like such a worthless purchase, but it is so vital.
- Seriously Cannot stress this enough.
- Laptop. It is what it is
- Skull, this is my "memento mori"
- a signal to writers to remember that just as they shall turn to dust, so shall their words.
- Reflection of ones own mortality
- reminder of the transient nature of all earthly goods and pursuits.
- Don't take things seriously, emoji-style wink
- speaking and text
- chin contains the first step in the TB-303 filter
- Bunny ears, obvious
- Lambda at the top of the skull
- Dice as a random generator.
- Last time I used it, 1-2 was play BoI Rebirth, 3-4 was sekrut project, 5-6 was music
- Personal deck of Oblique Techno strategies
- A deck of cards originated by Brian Eno, who is an amazing producer in his own right, check out links in the doobly do.
- Another way to inject some randomness and bring in some fresh ideas
- Camera
- show some originals
- show some eno-deck version
- Phineas. he is a talker and a planner. he is the guy who says "Ferb, I know what we're going to do today". If Spiritual Guides took the form of Cartoons, then Phineas would be mine.
- Monitors. The point of monitors is to reproduce sound in as pure a way as possible.
- Mo-pads Thanks to Evil-G for this suggestion. Very important, help stop vibrations from monitors transferring to the desk, and changing the sound.
- Keyboard
- Ableton Push. Primary interface into ableton live. Makes the software act like hardware.
- Behringer BCF2k, a decent controller
- during creation and mix engineering, use faders to set my volumes
- Use the buttons during mix engineering too
- … flesh this out, and put on the thing
- Ferb, another Spirit Guide. He never talks. He is a do'er. Seriously, best cartoon ever, even John Green Agrees. Link in the doobly doo.
- Mopho - Great little MonoPhonic synthesizer
- created by Dave smith, who is the guy who invented midi. Basically one of the synthesizer gods
- the midi implementation is STELLAR.
- For sale!
- 2 favorites: Yin and Yang
- x0xb0xes, clones of the TB-303.
- I'll talk more about the TB-303 and how to get that sound later.
- Check Nate Harrisons video for a proper explanation.
- Kaoss pad for playing live.
- I sample the song I am playing, then let that play while loading a new song
- Mixer. Was super important when I was a strict hardware guy.
- Audio interface, mixer 2.0. All external gear plugs in here.
- Hello Kitty coffee Cup 'cause Kawaii
- Old sequencer
- This thing contains all the notes of my old songs (not even the sounds!)
- Break boats and smash pots!
- Notebooks, one is for music when I was doing hardware, one is for music now that I am doing software, and one is for electronics
- Containers full of electronic project ideas that I'll get around to someday.
- Mono speaker. Reproduces what my music sounds like on a crappy speaker in mono.
- Electronic Components
- magnetic whiteboard pad for when i need to take stuff apart
- KAWAIIIIIIIIIIIII!!!!
- Old laptop iun the process of copying data over
- Containers full of art gear, cables,
- this trick. Seriously. If you ened to manage cables, this.
- Soldering Iron
- Breadboard of the Bunny Ear Project. It is coming along. What, you thought I was kidding in the intro?
- Chair for sharing my studio with smoeone else. For friends that like to come hang out and make music with me.
- Hook for where I hang up the labcoat.
- Graveyard of dead media
