| Below are some selections showing what Aesthetic Plateau Recordings' sound like. |
| All songs created by Mike Ogle (BMI). |
| The crayons, inks & paints in my studio: a 1973 Rickenbacker 4001 bass guitar, a 1975 Rickenbacker 4001 fretless bass guitar, |
| and a 2001 Hamer CH-12 twelve-string bass guitar' that I modified to have three Bartolini pickups, phasing, triple-coil taps |
| and a Stratocaster-style pickup selection. Depending on each song, I use two flangers; an Ibanez FL-99 Classic Flange or |
| an Ibanez DFL10 Digital Flanger. Three phasers; a Maxon PH-350 Rotary Phaser, a Boss PH-1 Phaser, and a Boss PH-2 |
| Super Phaser. I use an Analogman stereo Bi-Chorus and a Musitronics Mu-tron III envelope filter (best damn envelope |
| filter on the planet, and I've tried them all). An MXR Distortion II and a Boss ML-2 Metal Core. A Fulltone Full-Drive 2 |
| Mosfet for overdrive and a Boss DD-7 Digital Delay. I also use numerous 64-bit effects in the post-audio phase of |
| recording. All three bass guitars are run direct through a SansAmp Para Driver DI then XLR out into a Behringer |
| Eurodesk SX3242FX mixer. All my effect pedals were chosen after meticulously A/B'ing them with their competitors. |
| The keyboards/synthesizers/technology gear are' Windows Vista-64, Kontakt 4 with over 450 gigabytes' of sampled musical |
| instruments. Sonar 8 Producer, Sound Forge 9, Ensoniq TS-12 performance/composition synthesizer, Ensoniq SD-1/32V |
| music production synthesizer, Korg Z1 analog modeling synthesizer, two Roland XV-5050's w/Complete Orchestra, |
| Ultimate Keys, Platinum Trax & Supreme Dance expansions. Yamaha Motif-rack tone generator w/PLG150-PF & PLG150-DR |
| expansions, two Alesis QSR synthesizer modules w/Vintage Keyboards, Vintage Synthesizers, Classical & Sanctuary |
| expansions, an Emu Vintage Pro, a Roland JV-1010 w/Vintage Synth expansion, a Korg Wavestation SR w/Vector Synthesis |
| expansion, a Roland JD-800 programmable synthesizer w/Voice Crystals expansion and a Roland MKS-70 Super JX module. |
| All of the above' being played from a Kurzweil SP88 Stage Piano. A MOTU MIDI Express 128 interface allows my computer |
| to have a type of Mid-East peace talks' between Windows, Kontakt & Sonar; not to mention' deciphering thirteen different |
| synthesizers' protocol in what must seem like jibberish' to Windows... but I brokered the technological peace-talks'. |
| All of the synthesizers and bass guitars are mixed through the Behringer Eurodesk SX3242FX mixer. I use a portable |
| Tascam DR-1 recorder for sound effects & voiceovers. Everything passes through' and is recorded on a MOTU 2408 MKIII |
| audio interface at 64-bit/96 kHz resolution. I compress (mp3) all the sound on this website for fast internet transmission'. |
