Gear List

My studio is equipped with a professional-grade setup used in real commercial productions — the same tools behind released tracks for global clients. Students get hands-on access to an extensive arsenal of hardware and software during sessions, including a massive collection of premium paid plugins spanning mixing, mastering, synthesis, sampling, and sound design.

Whether you’re exploring industry-standard DAWs like Ableton Live, Cubase Pro, and Logic Pro, or diving into high-end plugins from Universal Audio, iZotope, Vocaloid, Moog, Roli, Native Instruments, and more, you’ll work with the actual tools used by working professionals, not just beginner-tier software. This gives students a rare opportunity to trial and experience paid professional tools before committing to their own purchases, ensuring they invest in the right gear for their workflow.
