DJ and Producer Myagi stopped by our office the other week, and when we saw that he was using a unique modular setup with Ableton, we couldn’t resist getting him to show us the different elements that make up his DJ rig. He’s also releasing an album in a format that allows users to remix it on Meta.DJ, an iPad DJ app that was released last year.
To learn more about Myagi, visit his website or check out his music on Beatport.
Some of the cool stuff that Myagi uses:
- Ill Gates’s DJ template for Ableton Live – if you’re looking for a great template for Live, Ill Gates has been developing his for the past few years – it’s one of the best we’ve found out there. The template comes with premapped versions for the M-Audio Trigger Finger, Akai’s MPD32/MPD24/APC40, and the iPad.
- We covered Meta.DJ when it was first released late last year, but they’ve added quite a few new features since the initial release (some of it based directly on the feedback they received here on DJTT!).
- The Korg Monotron series are small synths that can fit pretty well into any live or production setup, much in the same way that the Kaossilators can be used.
