PERCUSSION
Etkilendikleri
1950's 14x28 (yep) Gretsch Cocktail drum at the helm here, w/ a custom built upfiring Tama double bass pedal, for the ultimate in heavy metal jazz! The drum is surrounded by 5 Pintech electronic pads, powered by the Alesis D4 drum machine, MMT-8 sequencer, and a complete midi workstation that connects via midi patchbay to the keyboard rig (we'll get to that later). Also within range of the percussionist are:
*Toca 10 & 11 Congas *14 &15 brass Timbales *vintage Premier 6 & 8 bongos *6-8-10-Roto toms *3-70's Syndrums and controllers *vintage Temple Blocks *LP Bell Tree *shakers and noise makers of all kinds to infinity!
Not much in the way of hand drums here right now - bring them along!! Okay, lets get back to the keyboards...
Midi sync to the electronic drums are the Korg Triton, and Ensoniq ASR-10 Sampler with hundreds, maybe thousands of samples, 2 rack mount synth modules, and JUST IN - Kawai CA "concert artist" 640 88 key digital piano! The possibilities are endless. Included in the pic are the Hammond M3 tone wheel organ w/Leslie 145, 50's Wurlitzer 120 electric piano, Fender 4 channel tube pa head and Peavey Festival amplifier. Also available are:
*Baby grand piano (piano bar) *70's Wurlitzer 200a electric piano w/Leslie 60 system *Hammond Porta B *Leslie models 122, 25, 825 *60's Elka Panther organ Roland Juno 106 *Misc. synths and electronics
Mind Boggling....

..and yes, the hard working musician (or engineer) must take time to...
LOUNGE
Get comfortable! Pour yourself a freshly tapped micro brew and light up a smoke. When the music's over - turn out the light, turn out the light, turn - out the light.
Well thanx for taking the virtual tour. Hope you enjoyed it. Look for more pics in the pics section, and I'll be adding some more pics in the live sound section on this page in the near future.
You may recognize me from playing guitar or running sound and lights in the local clubs, or setting up audio for everyone from Areosmith to ZZ Top at The Montage Mountain Amphitheatre. I also set up audio for Broadway plays and run sound for dance studios at the Scranton Cultural Center at The Masonic Temple.
I'm a FOH (front of house) sound dude for a large PA and light show and engineer a 32+ track professional recording studio. I've also been known to shoot and edit video, especially for band promo packs, and have worked with many of the local bands including Simon Sez, Tin Pan Alley, Blues Power Revolution, and Tribes, just to name a few. I'm into restoring vintage drums, guitars, amps and recording gear. I love helping original bands bring out their sound using all different types of gear and my experience as a songwriter. On occasion, I make myself available to DJ your wedding, party, or batmitzva (lol) and people say I have a way of keeping the dance floor packed! thump-thump
Part of the reason for setting up this site is to showcase the musical talents of area musicians to appear on a LIVE Improvised Webcast! On Friday nites, the studio opens up to all different types of musicians, most of which have recorded here at one time or another, to improvise words and music direct to 2 track DVD, an the occasional multitracked session. These songs are webcast directly to you on the above player, FREE, every Friday nite from 9pm to 6am est. ALL NIGHT LONG!. You can also watch excerpts from the show anytime but, if you want it LIVE, you gotta tune in Friday Nite. Don't forget to click the CHAT icon and say HI or type a request Thanx.
