  • Awesome synths. That’s not Krishna by the way, it’s Shiva Nataraja.

  • really nice studio indeed. so sad to hear, his old one got knocked down. this is unfortunately happening to a lot of spaces in Berlin. we are also fighting for ours ( home of Gebrüder Teichmann, Redhead, DVS1, Fachwerk, Ben Klock, Dustin Zahn, Click Click, Channel X, Beste Modus,… etc ) . keep your fingers crossed!

  • Very nice setup. I wish I also had one “dinsync” side and a “MIDI” side in my studio.

  • Interestingly enough I was actually given Shiva Nataraja as a present by a friend from India. I guess they were a bit mixed up when they presented it too me. No disrespect intended of course 🙂 xx mathew jonson

  • some monies worth there where they get all the cash from to buy so much gear analog stuff is so expensive as there’s not much money in the music biz as an artist these days?

  • Beautiful setup. Is that a pair of Adam A77x monitors? I was thinking about a pair of these with a Sub 10 and this my tip me over the edge..

    Report
  • Monitors are S3A Adam
    Decompression was made with SH-101 Bass, JX3P Pads, MC-202 Blips.

  • Ahh, that just nudges it out of my price range! Love your music man, the set at ADE with Minilogue was incredible – you know how to use your toys too..

  • Easy MJ, I noticed you used the MFB 522 & machinedrum for a Boiler Room set. I was wondering how you route everything and if you use compression or limiting etc to polish up the sound during live shows?

    Report
  • Johnny,
    I sequence the MFB with the Machinedrum. I don’t use compressors for the live set other than what is on the master buss FOH.

  • What happened with the yamaha cs 20m and cs 15?

  • Thanks MJ

  • Such a beautiful workspace, Mathew.
    The only computer I see there is a closed laptop next to the Prophet V.
    Do you use it for sequencing as well or just for recording the analogue signals?
    Tracks, stems or stereo master buss?

    Report
  • Beautiful studio. The P5 … you use it with CV or did you get the MIDI retrofitted to it?

    I’ve seen quite some producers put notes on tape across their fender’s or bigger synths …. what’s it for? keeping permanent notes or ??

    Report
  • Hi Mathew. What is the din-sync’s stand? A Jaspers?

    Nice setup! 🙂

    Report
  • P5 is a rev 3.3 so comes with midi but minus the SSM chips of the rev 2’s. The tape is just off the desk from the last Cobblestone Jazz session in my previous studio. Just for memories really 😉

    The stands are both Jasper’s.

    Report
  • The computer is for sequencing and recording audio via the metric halo mio software.
