Focusrite Scarlett Solo - "An acceptable minimum service"
I use it with Ableton, Soundforge, and as a listening device. Stability is great, the interface can work unnoticed, and yet I set it at minimal latency with an old Core2Duo E6700 PC. Nothing speci…
Suhr Standard Carve Top Knopfler Spec - "Suhr Carve Top Knopfler Spec"
What you are paying for with this instrument is the build quality and standard of components. Don't expect any case candy or even a fancy case, just a typical g and g type job but a very big centre p…

I use the guitar primarily for picking, as I dont use a plectrum. However, like everyone, I also need to strum a little. I play up and down the neck in a variety of styles, but this little beauty lov…
Casio CT-700 - "I own the Casio CT-700 61 key keyboard"

Harley Benton PB-50 - "Quite Simply Put It's A Good Bass"
A bold title yes but one I'll stick with. Having played bass for over 30 years this was my 1st purchase from Thomann and a fine one in my opinion. I'd recently joined the UK BassChat forum and sa…

GEM Equinox 61 - "Great instrument, brilliant sounds, excellent synth engine"
This workstation (synthesizer, sequencer, sample-reader) is a joy to use. The sounds are really great and definately take after GEM's predecessors (the S-series synths). The only two little nags are …
Zoom H6 - "H6 is perfect EXCEPT it doesn't allow overdub with onboard mic/capsule"
Having owned the Zoom H4n a few years ago, the H6 is like revisiting an old friend that had lost weight, got in shape and stopped cussing all the time. The interface is really sleek, easy to get t…
Gibson Marauder - "Gibson Marauder"
The Marauder was a mid 70's attempt by Gibson to compete with the cheap Japanese copies which were flooding the west at that time. Although it was never particularly cheap (around £300 in the UK, whi…
The Loop Loft Indie Rock Drums MIDI Drum Loops - "Definitely inspiring, but..."
Used with EZDrummer 2 and SSD4. The bank is somehow organised (you'll likely have to reorganise it to taste for a more convenient use, as is often the case with such products), inspiring and diversif…
Casio WK-7500 - "Nice instrument"
I`ve played the Casio WK-7500 in a music store a while back. It can really imitate the draw bars on a Hammond organ. And they have all kinds of instrumental sounds to it, and a transpose button when …
Behringer Xenyx Q502USB - "Excellent value, fairly clear audio, easy to use"
I specifically bought this mixer as a stopgap between owning a Mackie 1604 VLZ board and a replacement. I also used, for a while, the Alesis Multi Mix 6, and the Xenyx 10 channel. Despite not havi…
