Digidesign 002 Rack
I currently record with a  Digidesign 002 rack.  I love this thing the preamps are pretty good and clean.  Very quiet!  I love working with pro tools.  It is the best recording software out there!  It does it all!




PreSonus Eureka
I just acquired this piece and haven't had a ton of time to use it, however I love it already.  This is a fantastic pre!  The preamps in the 002 are good however the compression and eq sections of the Eureka are invaluable!  I've read a ton of reviews on it and for the price you can't go wrong.

ADK A-51TC
This mic is amazing!  Its a tube mic that is very rich and warm!  It is great for Male and Female Vocals, Acoustic and Electric Guitar, Reed Instruments (Sax), Strings (Violin, Viola, Cello, and Contrabass), Drum Overheads, or anywhere you would use a Vintage Tube Microphone!  It has its own separate power supply so you don't use phantom power.  I'ts a little pricey but well worth the money.  I got mine off ebay for a little over half the cost!  Chris Tomlin, Michael W. Smith, Amy Grant, and many more use these mics!

Audio-Technica AT4040
This is a fabulous condenser mic!  Its extremely quiet and warm (not as warm as the ADK).  The AT 4040 is also a very versatile mic you can use it just about anywhere(vocals, guitars, overhead drum, etc.).  It has a 80hz hi-pass filter and a -10db switch on it.  It requires phantom power!

Shure SM57
The classic instrument mic!  However I have seen some vocalists use it.  This mic is the "go to" mic when recording electric guitar amps and snare / tom drums.  They are consistent and reliable!  I use these mainly on my amps and drums.

KRK Rocket 5
These are great studio monitors!  They have a great sound for the price!  The Rocket 5's don't have as much warmth as the 6's or the 8's but they do a wonderful job!  I love the fact that they are powered so you don't have to mess with more wires and amps.  Also they come with a ton of inputs (XLR, 1/4 balanced, or even RCA).

M-Audio Axiom 61
This is a great midi controller!  It does more than I know.  Its very easy to use and has a ton of features (sliders, knobs, drum pads, etc)!
