The best and industry standard digital audio workstation
product: Pro Tools. I use Pro Tools every day and train musicians
nationwide how to use Pro Tools.
D'Addario Strings. You know they're the best, and that's why I use them.
The best firewire interfaces and software I've ever used. I use the ULN series as a front-end to the Pro Tools rig. Highly recommended.
The main microphones I use for recording. Absolutely amazing.
These are my mastering speakers. You can't believe how they sound. They look cool too!
My good friend and mentor, Barry Diament. Barry taught me a great deal about audio and mastering. He is a very talented engineer. He's worked on albums you have in your CD collection. His recordings defy aural gravity.
I am now endorsing Godin Guitars. They have something for everybody, especially the 13-pin MIDI guitarist.
