Deadmau5's Set Up... Inside the giant LED cube...

Posted by mnw479 on Oct-07-2011 00:40:

that's amazing, does anyone have any idea how he uses all that stuff

He presses Play on his iPod and pretends to look cool?

No idea...

I like his home set-up more!

Space bar is used to hit play. The Futureretro XS, Niio stuff, Hinton/Cwejman/4ms modules, X1s, mixer, nord, cwejman s1, virus and the moog are just for the show.

is that the theme to castlevania ?

his setup looks pretty minimal considering what EDM producers used to have.

JMJ's setup make his look small, and JMJ's is pretty minimal.

The thing is, that setup is for jamming over playing tracks - he's not making every track live as such. Probably the best way to work when you've only got two hands.

You want to see a hardcore live setup: Orbital

What are the two white units on the lefthand rack (i.e., below the FR XS and SSL G-Series Compressor)? I'm assuming that they're a matching set of pres/channel strips and they look sorta like a TL Audio Ivory series, but I don't think they are?

edit: looking closer at the rack screws, it's just one unit - probably a 2-channel pre/compressor?

edit2: nevermind - Specimen303 answered it already - it's a Niio Iotine Core.

My friend got to open for him here in Vegas so I got free tickets to go, backstage pass and stuff as well. He Mixes in the tracks, uses some filters and that's about it. From what I could tell it was all just for show I never really saw him messing with any of it from where I was standing and I had a decent view of inside his cube.

That screen to the far left is running ableton with a bunch of clips.

I don't really care for most of his music but he is a talented dude I think. The visuals setup he has is killer that cube melts faces off the rolling kids.

why even bother with some of that gear if it is just for show. I mean nobody can see it and I doubt he cares what all the producers think as they all hate him him anyway. I didn't realize that was his live setup. I would of included like platforms for 2 dancers. no security bar either, 20 foot drop. Kill the lights, drop the dancers, drop the beat, lazers on , perfect crime. Next dancers please step up.
