"The rest of the studio is all software. I don't want any hardware because that would limit mobility, which meansthere is almost no difference between the mobile and the home studio. It's nice to have controllers, but it's also nice to live without them.

"Plus, I don't think the sound difference between real and software synths is that huge or worth it. So I have Logic on the one hand, and then Native Instruments Komplete, Arturia Collection, Trilian, Stylus, Omnisphere and Traktor. It would take a whole decade to go through all that stuff, so I don't think I need anything else in terms of sound. And now, of course, I also have the Roland V-Drums, which has tons of analog drum sounds."
