Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
No. Except at practice
Your musical influences
Sounds like I inherited alot of Alex Lifeson, Randy Rhoads, Vinny Moore, and Vangelis.
Most of what I play is something I wrote, using some study of theory, playing diatonically, in keys. The mood varies, from the soft Preisner style classical progressions to more up-tempo Rock anthems. Alot of times I am experimenting with guitar tones that end up in the recordings, mixed with high gain leads. Other times the clean guitars with effects are all I need to create music. Certainly what I enjoy most is compiling different chord arrangements, studying from other composers, listening to Pianists and Violinists.
What equipment do you use?
Buscarino guitar-custom built for me as 'incomplete'. Just like I wanted so I could put the vol/tone controls and pickup switches where I wanted them. Hardtail bridge, guitar stays in tune eternally.
EMG pickups-Mostly you will hear the SA+S for clean and the 81 for dirty.
ADA preamps-MP-1 has Noise Mod and MDRT (Machinator Developed Replacement Transformer)
Mesa Boogie Preamps-Rectifier Recording was used for about 1 year. Very heavy duty preamp worked best live for clear LOUD distortion, Mesa style.
Eventide processors-DSP7500 used with an assortment of it's features, for microphone and direct recordings. The most powerful toy in my rig.
ART Processor-Multiverb SE is the backing, right after the MP-1 the ART provides minute reverb and sometimes tremolo as a 'pre' effect to the more serious Eventide algos.
Orange AD30 amps-This is such a new addition that there is only 1 recording done with it, so far it's excellent and I love it but I'm afraid to direct off of it. Need a Hot Plate for more Orange recording.
Mesa Boogie Amps-2:100 was used for about 1 year, for only a couple recordings, but exceptional sound live with plenty of outputs supporting many cabs and speakers.
ADA Amps-MicroTube200 is still used for amplifying the fx signals for live wet/dry/wet setups.
Eminence speakers-are the speaker of choice for the 'Heavy' closed backed cabs I use, for a more contemporary sound and thud.
Jensen speakers-used with the Orange/Tremolo/Reverb for a superb Fender vibrolux charm.
Anything else?
Nope.
