STUDIO
My production studio is nestled just outside of the beautiful city of Olympia Washigton among tall evergreens and in walking distance from the Sound. My studio provides me with a perfect tranquil setting for composing and recording music. My digital audio workstations are PC based (Intel dual core PCs with multiple SATA drives). I primarily use Steinberg Cubase 5, Sony Vegas, and Sound Forge. I have a high end EMU soundcard/digital interface, analog, tube, and digital compressors, and several quality condenser and cardioid dynamic mics made by RODE, Shure, and E/V. I use Mogami cables through out. For instruments I have a rack of MIDI controlled analog/digital synths by EMU and Roland as well as a few vintage synth keyboards in the studio. I also have an extensive set of high end virtual softsynths and effects plug-ins as well as a very large library of digital audio samples. Below are some photos of my studio gear. |

More rack synth gear. |  |
Marshall TSL60 tube head. Three independent channels. The master volume controls are useful. Nice vintage tone and great clean channel. |

Marshall TSL601. Same amp as the TSL60 head only in a smaller package. Has a one 12 inch Celestion speaker. I like the sound and versatility of these TSL Marshalls so much I have two! |  |
Marshall 4x12 1960ax speaker cab. Has four vintage reissue Celestion Greenbacks installed. I have found this cab to be somewhat bright and transparent (does not color the sound of the amp). |

Peavey Classic 30. These are great sounding American made tube amps. I purchased this one in 1994. I have a Celestion Vintage 30 speaker installed. What I love about this series of amps are their versatility--warm and chiming clean tones and a smooth, gritty lead tone. |  |
This is my custom built effects pedal board. The Dunlop Wah pedal also includes a volume pedal and boost circuit. I use George L cables, which have solid wire cores). |
 |
Boss Loop Station. I've been working this into my solo acoustic sets. |  |
I use this Marshall AS50R for small acoustic sets. This model has two 8 inch speakers. Not much power but has a fairly transparent sound. |
 |
Boss GT-3. |  |
I have a collection of other distortion pedals that I occasionally use, such as this 1980s Rat (for that Jeff Beckian fuzz tone). |
