All the tracks on Pororoca were started in her small but effect home studio studio set-up, which includes a bunch of MIDI controllers (Novation Launchpad, Native Instruments Maschine controller, AKAI APC40, M-Audio Keystation Pro 88, etc.,) a collection of violins (include a 100 year old German-made violin, which she uses for recording, newer 5-string, electro-acoustic violin she uses for live performance, and a solid electric violin,) two MacBook Pro she uses as mobile-studio. She shows us an assortment of instruments including a collection of flutes, frog percussion, a bliptronic instruments, and a batch of controllers – and all of that is just in Part 1! Check the rest of the videos in which she covers composition and production in Ableton Live, plugins, and offers invaluable production tips.
