MacBook Pro M4 Pro
The centerpiece of my studio, handles all my music and video production tools and apps like VST's, MainStage, Logic, Final Cut, OBS and more.

Focusrite Scarlett 2i2
Every serious musician needs an audio interface, and the Scarlett is the "market-standard", the trusty reliable choice most people make.

Roland KC400 Keyboard Amp
Multi-channel keyboard amplifier, a solid choice with 4 stereo channels, good low end, pre-fader line-out. Substitutes a mixer and DI boxes.

AKG K72 headphones
A good entry-level headphone set. The EQ is flat enough, and it covers your whole ear, sitting around them without pressing / causing pain.

Sony ZV-E10 Camera
A nice mid-tier 4k camera I started using in 2025 mostly for the front angle in my videos, sometimes for the bird's-eye view of the Fantom's screen.

Senheiser MKE 600 Mic
A nice mid-tier shotgun microphone I started using in 2025 to record my voice, which can be used via XLR +48v or battery-powered.

Anker 11-in-1 USB Hub
A good high-performing USB Hub, use only 1 USB-C port of your Mac, and connect everything you need, controllers, interface, HDMI and more.

Arturia Keylab 61 Mk II
The MIDI controller of my choice for my top keyboard. I have used and trusted Keylabs for almost 10 years now, so I vouch for their quality.

Roland Fantom 7 EX
Roland's flagship workstation, which will forever be my bottom keyboard. Fantastic sounds, seamless UX/UI, extremely fun sequencer.

Arturia V Collection 11
Extraordinary collection of VST's. Software recreations of classic synths and keyboards. I've been a user since V Collection 5 in 2016. MASSIVE fan.

Hammond B-3X plugin
The absolute best Hammond organ VST plugin, the only one Hammond themselves sign off on, made by IK Multimedia. Outstanding sound.

Roland Pedals - Sustain, Expression and Volume
DP10 has an anti-slip rubber (!!!), the EV-5 does the job fine, and the FV500 is built like a tank + has adjustable pedal feel (looser or tighter).

Yamaha P22 Digital Piano
Serious keyboardists need to study with weighted action 88 keys, like real pianos. I recommend this to practice at home, but it can be used live too.

Yamaha DBR12 Speaker
I have 2 and they're great. Powered, bivolt, 2 XLR combo jacks, and have a good angle when on the floor, so they're also great as return cabs.

Here is a summary of tools I don't currently own, but I have either had them in the past, or I have similar models.

Roland Fantom 06
Younger sibling of the Fantom 7 EX, Great cost-benefit, gorgeous sounds, seamless UX/UI, extremely fun sequencer, very lightweight.

Arturia Keylab Essential
The budget version of the Arturia Keylab MIDI controller. A great choice overall. Good keys + all the faders, knobs, pads and controls you need.

Arturia Astrolab
The only keyboard that has Arturia's VST sound engines (V Collection) built into it. I don't have one YET, but I've waited for years for this to exist.

Arturia Minifuse 2
A solid choice for an Audio Interface, alternative to the Scarlett. It has everything you expect + it comes with a few useful software licenses.
