Control room uses the Reaper and Logic Pro DAWs, and they are used for everything from working to picture, arranging, mixing and mastering to producing scores to print out for sessions.
In terms of digital recording I use a selection of high quality plugins for effects processing (reverbs etc) and samples. Orchestral sample libraries include the stunning Spitfire Albion I & II, VSL, East West Platinum Plus, Miraslov Vitous, Cinematic Strings II & LA Scoring Strings.
I am a professional pianist and violinist and also play guitar, bass guitar, percussion and organ. Where there isn’t the budget to record everything with real instruments, a blend of sampled instruments and the real thing can produce excellent results.
Studio live room with Neumann U87ai microphones, Beyer 201s and an ultra quiet matched stereo pair of Rode NT1As for Foley work plus large screen picture sync.
There is also a beautifully restored upright Steck piano circa 1900s / Berlin plus a collection of electric & acoustic guitars, violin & viola plus an assortment of various percussion.
