Hey Dom! One thing that I love so much about your videos (and studio space) is your lighting. I was dissappointed that you didnt cover this as I was hoping to find out which flood lights you use to light up your walls with color! A pair of 15W perhaps? A link in the description would be great if you can!

Can you follow this up with a Workflow Video? For instance, do you Mix Hybrid, and if so, what's your signal flow? What order do you process in? I after seeing the Black Box in hardware, I expected to see more Analog Compressors, or the Map to compliment your Portico. I also run Console 1, do you run it on every track, and which Strips do you use, and as first plugin or some other chain? AND Thank You for all these videos! We have made a lot of the same choices, Console 1 / Streamdeck / TC Plugs & Controllers / that Loupedeck is coming soon, you always make me think about things from another angle.

I am drooling looking at your Adam S2V's. I know how super awesome they sound, as I owned the Adam A7X's for less than a week and they sounded soooooo awesome, especially to make grand pianos from my Yamaha Montage 8 sound authentic & realistic even at full grand piano volume, whereby they handled the mid frequencies & all the frequencies for that matter, so perfectly with the most crystal clear highs. Unfortunately they had an odd fatal 'flaw', although Adam Support would not call it a flaw and referred to it as a 'design characteristic'. The fatal flaw was that when playing pianos at full grand piano volume to emulate the sound as true and realistic as possible, a lot of the softer played notes in the mid to low areas caused the woofers to rumble & distort, almost like a strange static sound. Adam confirmed this and said that their S series speakers do not have this 'design characteristic'. Hence, I continue to drool knowing how much even more awesome the S series sounds compared to the A series, and aside from the 1 flaw, the A series blew me away...and since the S series is double the price of the A series (& I had already broke the bank doubling my budget on those speakers), and could not afford them nor justify saving for several more years to get them. I hoping someone who has money takes pity and drops off a pair of S2V's at my house 😄 Interestingly enough I see you have the Sennheiser HD 650 headphones. After returning the Adams, I decided to get really good headphones instead, and after a lot of research whereby a lot of reviews kept going back to the HD 600's and comparing many of the top, most expensive headphones to them, I checked further and they were perfect for pianos and for mixing, since their frequency response is quite flat.

Nice focused studio. I would personally love to see a review of the AXR4. I used to have several audio interfaces which no longer work and my MODX 6 is my sole audio interface. I was blown away by how good it sounds compared to my previous ones which costed almost the same as the MODX. So because of this I'm looking at expanding my inputs with some steinberg/yamaha rack units.

That retro keyboard is so sexy, but such JUNK! I bought one, the command key was broken on the left side and they wouldn't do anything to fix it or let me return it, stuck with it. It also has trouble connecting so I'm sitting there for 5 minutes doing everything I can to get it to connect. The battery life is also crap. I would not buy that keyboard if someone is considering it, also noticed you don't use it anymore either. The rest of this video though, quality! Love the studio tour setups and am grateful for shining light on that monitor light bar!

​@@DomSigalas The Subsequent is similar enough to a Sub 37 that I wouldn't upgrade if I already had the Sub. They are very similar. The Subsequent has improved gain staging and cleaner headroom, but the Sub 37 is still an amazing monosynth. I'd like to add a Sequential Pro 3 though - fantastic intuitive workflow both for sound design and step sequencing, fat analog oscillators plus a versatile digital one, and a choice of three great filters.

Hi Dom, Can you use the CC121 and the Streamer Deck at the same time without any issue?

I discovered you on the yamaha montage. You're one of the people who decided to buy me one and I fell in love at first sight. I had the bad habit of buying too many synthesizers. The montage made quite a lot of space in my studio. Big shoud out for that ! As someone who left the computer world a few years ago, I was wondering why this studio doesn't have modular synth ? Did you try it ? Now I understand that you can't tame everything either. With so much material and knowledge to store, I guess you still have to make music !

Thank you Mathias! I will answer your question : I would LOVE to have a modular system in my studio. There are two reasons why I haven't got one (yet): 1. I am very prone to getting excited about gear and a modular synth is a never ending adventure. I know I would spend hundreds of bucks every month to get a new module :P 2. It is not necessary to my workflow to be honest. I like to get stuff that are going to make their money's worth very soon. The Montage has paid for itself many times over, same with the OB6 and Sub37 as well as the other pieces I have (well, maybe not the OP-1 yet!). So a modular would be a self indulgent project, which I might take on in the future. :)

As always your video is very informative, but why did you choose portico over 1073 is my main question, i would like like to hear and see it in action and so many of us in the comments , preamp is a great factor in every studio

For synthesizer action, I haven't felt a better keybed than the OB-6. I've been fortunate enough to try out a Montage 8 at my local music store, but they didnt't have a 7 or 6. How would you compare the action on the OB-6 keybed versus the action of the Montage 7 or 6? I already have a Yamaha Reface CS (unweighted mini keys) and an Arturia Keylab 88 (weighted) so I'm looking for the best semi-weighted keybed. Your videos are why I'm considering a Montage! It is so deep yet easy to use.

hey great video and super awesome gear you have there! most of this is far out of my reach though... (yet) i would find it very interesting if you could tell us more about your journey how you got to the point today! like.. if you have some old pictures of your old studios and old gear haha, i think that would be very inspiring too! :D

@ Dom Sigalas I'm delighted to see you have a Yamaha Reface DX. I've just bought 1 for my studio to help recreate some of the FM synth sounds of the 80s. I interested to know why you chose the 4 operator Reface and not the 6 op original more powerful DX7 ? I would have thought both your Montages could do same job?

The reface DX has a tip in its sleeve that makes it super easy to program and fun to use: feedback on each one of the operators. You can get the same result in the Montage with various techniques but the DX does it so easily it makes programming FM sounds SUPER easy :)
