the fact that you own almost every piece of gear thats been used on the classics is just mind boggling, man. Like, with the synths alone; thats the sound of like...FIVE of my favorite bands off the bat lol
You have a very impressive studio space along with a nice collection of synthesizers, both modern and vintage. I also like how you explain the way you use each piece of gear in your setup or why you chose a specific piece of gear along with a story behind it. Thank you so much for making this video and kindly sharing it with us. I enjoyed every minute of it.
Absolutely brilliant setup Luke! I’m a drummer, and still love 80’s music. I had the Simmons SDS8 myself. Look forward to seeing more videos from your awesome studio!
i fully enjoyed this breakdown of your studio. I think the part I was intrigued with the most (aside from the synths themselves) was the patch bay. what an efficient way to be able to have everything up and work quickly with the option to route through outboard gear. very professional setup and satisfying to watch. thank you!
Thank you Luke. Been waiting for this. edit - I bought my first analog synth from my music teacher too (well, my mother did) back in the day, mid 80s. Juno106. I still have it. Special place because it was the first.
Loved the tour, and the selection of gear! Re future videos....I haven't gone through all of your channel's videos (yet), but if you haven't done it, a video with a short step through of making a track (ie. actually doing it - creating a beat, patching different synths in, adding effects) would be interesting. Not the whole real time thing (which could take hours)...just something to show the process to making key decisions, and generation of sounds as they happened...so maybe 10 to 15 min long (?), giving the feel of seeing a track built from scratch. I think Paolo from Synthmania has done this sort of thing....again, sorry if you've actually already done it and I haven't seen it yet 🙏
I love the sound of the Multimoog. This thing seems to be one big sweet spot. It would certainly be interesting if you could compare the sounds to the software Moogs. For example with the Mini V from Arturia. As far as the instruments can be compared. I always try to recreate the same sound as your Multimoog, but it just sounds much juicier and fatter in your videos. In the end, I think it's simply the difference between analog synthesizers and VSTs.
Truly blessed to have all that gear. Spoilt for choice which I bet is a curse on some occasions. I have a Grandmother which dominates my tiny home studio but looks like a toy in your setup 🤣🤣 great work Luke
I love all that good old 70s-90s Synth Stuff. I´m always looking for Gear for my little Home Studio. But i can only afford the cheaper ones like Korg M1, Yamaha TX81Z. and the clones of Arp2600, 303, 909, a.s.o. You have so much Synth´s from the golden era of good Synth-Music. Would be proud having some of that highly expensive Stuff you have. I think you must smile every day you come into your museum-like studio, Luke
Very good... I liked the 3 separate rooms, especially the one with the window used for creating sounds. Any time you can explain the patchbay better, how you configured it with the synthesizers, especially when the synthesizer is in stereo, how everything is connected at the same time through the patchbay.
The patchbays are Normalled. So the synth outputs on the left side of my room are connected to the back of the patchbay and then cables go to the individual inputs of the Apollo 16 audio interface. If a synth is stereo then you simply allocate 2 channels. On the right side of my room, the cables go from the patchbay to a mixer so I can hear everything and then just patch to a mono DI or the available stereo channel on my Apollo interface.
This was awesome! What a collection. Any interest in or thoughts on the PPG Wave? I only really know of Geddy using them in Rush but man I love those sounds he got with that 2.3 during the 80s like on Distant Early Warning. I don't really ever see them come up anywhere.
I have exact same absorbers as yours and in exact configuration / height, even the corners except mine are white. As of JP-8 the trick is in layering. You can create everything, even proper snare drums (not just white noise swoosh). I got many of the big polys, OB-X, OB-8, JP8, P5, Xpander, Trident, MKS80 etc I still get surprised how versatile JP8 stands among them. If you decide to pass it, grab the Xpander, they are IMO best buy on the vintage poly market nowadays. There's one in Oz for 4.3k EUR if you walk to the guy with 4k I'm sure he'll give it to you.
Layering on the JP8 is definitely the key! Even just duplicating the same sound in Dual mode creates the most awesome delicious wide sound. I do have an Xpander on my wishlist! Thanks for the heads up 😀
Thanks for this share, Luke, interesting stuff! I got your 2 Minifreak banks and think they're superb; I love the category layout and I can usually find something I want fast with a couple of tweaks. I'd love to get something similar from you for the Roland JD-XA (which I think is criminally under-appreciated btw!); any chance of JD-XA sounds??
I’m so happy you are enjoying the MiniFreak banks! I haven’t considered a JD-XA one but I have made a lot of patches for my live shows on there so maybe I could dive in sometime in the future 😊
I went down the individual patch channel route for clarity and no synth audio cross bleed when recording audio stems. But in order to have all keyboard tracks rec armed for all instruments you would need 3 apollo 16s stacked for 24 stereo inputs and aggregated interfaces or adat chained. That’s way too expensive, so i use a pre input mixer instead and feed into multiple armed audio tracks from single input channel 3/4 into one interface. Live looping is easy then. Can’t do live looping if you have to stop in between phrases and patch in a keyboard for the chorus part of the song, thats not live looping at all.
Thanks for your generousity, taking time to show us your studio. I have a question: do you think it is worthwhile to use an old EII when there are alternatives like the TAL sampler software for example. I think the EII looks and sounds great and is kind of mythic. But do you really prefer it to modern sampling in the box considering all the limitations of the old machine? Do you think it sounds more unique or is there something about the workflow that you prefer? Would the Emax be a worthy substitute to the EII? Thanks again.
The EII is a wonderful machine and can produce great sounds. It certainly takes a lot more time than a software sampler to design sounds though. If I'm writing music and want a classic EII sound, I just go with the TAL sampler or the Arturia Emulator II V to keep the creative flow rolling. Later on once the track is fully arranged I will most likely load the same sound on the EII and record it. The Emax is great and has a lot of the same sound banks available. The only downside is that the Emax takes a bit longer to edit as there is only 1 data slider. The sound on the Emax is actually a lot more low-fi. Overall the Hardware can be cumbersome but the sound sits much better in a mix than the software. It just sounds more pleasant and you don't need to do as much work in the mix.
@@lukemillionmusic Great explanation. I've got an Emax that I haven´t used very much yet and this made me inspired to explore it more. Many thanks and especially for all the great music on your channel. I love it when you play Prince...
clapping for the Juno-6 👍🏻 and as far as the Jupiter-8 is concerned the Juno-6 shares a lot with it plus the DCOs and makes 80% (or more) of the kind of sounds the Jupiter-8 makes ...there's a youtube vid of a comparison between a Juno-60 and Jupiter-8 that shows just how similar they are
I love the Juno 6. It definitely does cover all the classic Roland Polysynth sounds. If that’s what you are after then it’s all you need! The Jupiter 8 is like the Rolls Royce edition with increased polyphony, an extra detunable oscillator, an additional envelope, cross modulation, oscillator sync, an extra LFO, unison and solo modes, portamento, the ability to layer or split sounds and a wide stereo image when using the stacking modes. Those features take it into a new sound design world not possible on the Juno. But sometimes a basic approach is all you need and that’s why I will always have a special place for the Juno 😊
@@lukemillionmusic very true on the extra features particularly the layering...along with the Juno-6 I have a Roland JX-10 so that's my (much less expensive) layering setup haha 😁 Of course the Jupiter-8 is a big part of 80s music history and nothing can get past that, plus I think it will only appreciate more in value as years go by. By the way I've taken single audio tracks from the Juno-6, duplicate them, move them to L/R stereo fields and shift them very slightly in time to create a more lush effect.
The main studio is a room built inside a room so not much dust actually comes in. I still will give everything a tickle with a soft paint brush every Monday morning to keep any surface dust away.
nice studio.🙂 I also love and use hardware but also a big mixing console. the soundtracs jade. al my rack gear reverbs..and soundmodules go to the console. the 2 track output go to my apogee symphony . when i,m done mixing I record the mix in an audiotrack in logic after that I do the mastering gear I use Roland xv3080 yamaha motif es rack roland fhantom Rack avalon vt737sp avalon ad2022 lexicon mpx1 effect tc d-two delay sony v77 effect emagic unitor 8 midi interface kurzweil pc3x synt kurzweil k2000R korg kronos Im looking for more effect gear Im thinking tc m5000 or tc 4000 or pcm96 I dont know
How do you wire up the big synths from the spare room in the main room? Like if you wanted to use the jdxa because it has a specific patch.

I just take synths from the spare room and pop them on a single stand in the main room when I need to use them. I have a bunch of spare stands and then just plug the synth into the patch bay to record. I mainly use digital effects but when I need a specific effect sound I can easily patch in one of the physical units. And I'm not too fussed about not being able to save patches on those preset less synths. But it can be handy to take a photo or video of the settings for reference 😀
@@lukemillionmusic need you a 'Tea boy' - pay zero dollars , but gets to say he works in a studio - but really goes round with a duster making sure its all tip top - very nice studio - very nice - i am here widdling down my 10 synths just too a computer ( once again ) - its a strange process , theres a lot of care in your room whereas mines a mess , I do like the way you cant see leads hanging out of al your synths - midi leads , audio leads - it just looks so messy and then they start to criss cross each other like spagetti you cant undo lols - great room - keep it tidy
Really interesting to see how you work. Beautiful space(s) you have there!
Thanks Alex. Come visit sometime 😁
That study smells like history 👍
Enjoyed the tour Luke, thanks. A very impressive collection.
Really great setup! Thanks for the tour!
Thanks for the tour!
Gina the Synthcat was epic! 💚
Love what you have said talking about Jupi8. That's 10/10, core of gear buying decisions.

Hey Luke amazing Studio - amazing floor Lamp - amazing Luke - thank you for the Tour
When i started to look your videos i have always wanted to see all your synths, thank you for sharing with us. That studio is really a dream come true
Nice digs. I like your connectivity philosophy.
Eve monitors! Most important thing in a studio. Nice choice.
You’re a genius all the way ; very knowledgeable about your gear , congratulations
thanks for the tour!
Love your studio!!!
I have the VSTs of most of these and I WISH I had the real things. Very jealous. Amazing setup and love the sounds you make with it.
Thank you 😊🙏
Boy you don’t mess around. Nothing but high end and absolute classics.
Luke - Amazing studio and synth collection. I love the idea of a multi-room studio for various aspects of the musical process. Thanks for sharing.
Great space, thank you for taking time to show us.
I also have a VP330, fantastic and unique vintage synth.
Absolutely brilliant setup Luke! I’m a drummer, and still love 80’s music. I had the Simmons SDS8 myself. Look forward to seeing more videos from your awesome studio!
Thanks. Really waiting for more ❤
Thanks Luke you made me cry, ❤ love your grandmother
this is such a beautiful den of musicality!
“Enough of the nerdy talk-let’s talk about synths” got me good 😂
Thanks Luke, More on the JP4 please :)
Amazing thank you so much to show your working spaces and all Synth ,very nice

Just wanna pop in and say thanks for your vintage minifreak presets, just picked up both earlier today. The Moog stuff is so good!!!!
That’s great! Thank you 🙏
Wow great setup and didn't know you were from Adelaide! I live in Glenelg, but from Manchester UK.
That's an awesome setup you have there 👌
great video Luke! thank you 🎹
Very cool cave Luke! Especially like the Emulator sound and story.

good job!
Great studio setup 💐💯
Thank you for the tour. The Muse looks great and I would love to hear your thoughts on it. A reliable polyphonic Moog would be very nice.
I think the Muse is a great Polysynth. Covers a lot of territory and you can go pretty deep with it or just pull up the classic tones.
I love all that good old 70s-90s Synth Stuff.

AiAiAi 'eye eye eye' I believe, but could be wrong. Really solid headphones, I used to run the wired TMA-2's, my son is running the wireless ones.
That might be it! Funny name but great headphones 😊
Since you have a Prophet, I want to hear some Level 42, maybe Starchild?
Love your playing, you are very talented my friend

Great studio. What’s the sound diffrernce between the DX7 mki and mkii? 🙏🙏🙏
Thanks. The mkii is a bit cleaner with less digital noise. You can also split and layer sounds on it which gives you more sound design possibilities.

♥️🎵🎹
So you forgot the 808 909 but not the SDS :) - i'd like to see you use seperate outputs on drums and have fx on each.
I usually use multiple outputs when recording the drum machines as it sounds better than taking the stereo output. Stay tuned!
Nice setup. How do you deal with dust ?
The main studio is a room built inside a room so not much dust actually comes in. I still will give everything a tickle with a soft paint brush every Monday morning to keep any surface dust away.

Oh man, I wish you didn't show the B room. Now I think I need a B room.
How do you wire up the big synths from the spare room in the main room?
Like if you wanted to use the jdxa because it has a specific patch.

Haha. I don’t think I’ve ever bought a synth of eBay. All been sourced locally so I can try them first 😊
My god @lukemillionmusic, seeing that piano and that set up on top leads me to ask another question. Have you ever met Joe Jackson?
I have not!
I saw a Jupiter-8 in Australia for sale for AU$26,000...
There's currently one on market place for $32000 AUD.
