C.lab’s Setup!

This is my music production/ controllerist setup. It includes:
15" MBP
APC40
Maschine
Kawai pn85
Mbox mini
Alesis controlPad
Pluggable 10 port USB 2.0 hub
Furmam power conditioner
M-audio keystudio

SOFTWARE:
Ableton Suite 8
Traktor 2
Protools 8 LE
Logic studio 9
Massive
Maschine
Stutter edit
Sugar bytes Turnado

I basically have two sides to my setup. One for music production, synthesis, and midi mapping. The other side is for part writing, dj’in and all out controller INSANITY.

My favorite way to use my setup is as follows.
I use my maschine (running In ableton) to establish my groove.
Then I will use my keyboard and a massive patch to lay down that perfect bass line over the beat. Then I repeat the same step for other melodic voices.
Once I have my tracks built up I like to route them all into “decks”.
And finally, I like to place turnado and stutter edit instances on each deck. Then I proceed to get lost for hours turning knobs and recording loop upon loop. Hope y’all like it!

Do you use the maschine for live preformance or production?

Both actually. It has to be the greatest groove production tool I have ever worked with. But with its fx controls, and pattern selects, it’s a blast to use live as well.

thats awesome. i appreciate the insight since i have the same hardware im interested in this layout totally, so i can develop more on the production and live\remix side of things.
