Looks cool! Was there a black Noah or does it only look black in the photo?

OK, looking closer it must be the safari.

Yeah that’s right. It’s the safari colourway. A very unique green, it changes so much depending on the light.

It’s nothing too remarkable TBH, a small assortment of semi-modulars and keyboards but it gets the job done for what I need!

Here’s my synth stack, on top is a Dreadbox Nyx which is super awesome for ambient pads. Below that in the rack is a Roland System-1m and a Behringer Neutron. Both the 1m and the Neutron are routed through the Ventris Dual Reverb clipped to the top of the stack.

Below that is the breakout panel for interfacing those two synths with my controller and the drum machine via MIDI and CV.

 ![IMG_20221106_115158](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/3/7/d/37d3f827a0960a7aeb6fb181a768835fe7c128b6.jpeg)

The bottom half of the stack has my Zoom L-12 which records onto an SD card if I don’t have the computer on, otherwise it acts as a DAW interface. Below that is an Arturia DrumBrute which is mounted to it’s drawer for convenient transportation.  
Underneath that is a compressor/expander for the DrumBrute and a breakout panel for the mixer.

 ![IMG_20221106_120459](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/a/0/5/a0503004cef5848ee6b0d8987cb97366978acfbc.jpeg)

Over here is the rig I use for most live gigs, it’s got an ASM Hydrasynth on top (I could go on for days about how great this synth is) and a Casio PX-5S workhorse stage piano on the bottom. These get used for recording as well.

 ![IMG_20221106_115344](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/d/8/1/d8111e57cfbad253240b29cd23e2cf51b7a1ec3e.jpeg)

And then I’ve got the controller for the two semi-modulars as well as a nylon-string guitar and an electric that I bought for five dollars at a rummage sale.

 ![IMG_20221106_115522](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/a/2/e/a2ee821e5e3b24ade5b1be6225fc530102ce4e9e.jpeg)

For recording I use Bitwig Studio, and occasionally Ardour for some stuff.

Free Solo. I acquired this one off the BST already swapped. I call it the “Big Yellow Taxi Cab”. I didn’t know how I was going to feel about the silver half but it works.
