Great article, valuable insight into the workflow of one of the best producers around (”Socially Inept”).

Personally I’m a Renoise kinda guy, but horses for courses…

Roney: i just use a dual head DVI video card (pci express16). i used to roll with a cheap as dirt dual vga (agp) back when i had two 19″ fish tanks on my desk.

vinayk : i primarily use the tablet to control cc#’s with tablet2midi
its completely customizable with multiple assignments for each controller… well,… you can read the specs for yourself. but if you are a musician and have a wacom tablet its a must have. I dont use a mouse. thats what the gesturepad is for.

peter: a bundle is an awesome idea. if only the kids at imageline would hook a brother up with some promo copies to sell in the bundle i’d work it into the someday arriving proemland store ;)

Hey so do you guys do everything with those tablets? I.e drop the mouse all together? is that possible?

What did you use to get the two monitors to work? Is it a splitter of some type and how does it connect to the computer and two monitors?

Thanks and great setup!

Peace,

Thanks Sanford… I didn’t mean to imply “free” album downloading… often people have a track or two up for free on their website/myspace etc…

Will have a look at some of these online stores. Thanks!

Vinayk: You can get his full albums from most any of the labels online mailorders that he has released on (merck, n5md, etc.). Its also all available on all the major digital download outlets (itunes, rhapsody, etc.). From what i heard, he has two kids to feed, so he needs all the album purchases possible, and alot less of the ‘free mp3′ downloading….

On a side note: Awesome setup, Wacom is the future. So is Proem.

Thanks for sharing your setup Proem. Your music is an inspiration, especially knowing that you’re using my favorite sequencer. I’m always interested to see what others are doing with FL Studio. I pretty much use it exclusively for experimental / ambient. Now you’ve got me thinking of adding more screen real estate. hmmm…
