Uses

as of June 1, 2021

Here's the hardware and software I use for digital creation. This is all the stuff I can think of at the moment. If you're wondering what I use for something, ask me and I'll let you know and put it here.

Hardware

My daily driver is a 13" 2016 Macbook Pro. At times, I use an external vertical mouse (can't remember the make & model).

For music, my MIDI controller and portable synth is the Akai MPK Mini Play.

My 3D printer is the Creality Ender 3 V2.

For playing some mobile games and debugging my web games, I use the GameSir T4 Pro Wireless.

For photography, I usually use my iPhone XS or, funny enough, a GoPro Hero 9.

Software

For software development, I use VS Code or Vim for text editing.

My typical browser is Brave, but at times I use Safari or Chrome.

For 3D art & design, and 3D printing, I use Blender. If I need a NURBS-based modeling tool, I use FreeCAD. My slicer is Cura.

For 2D art and design, I use Inkscape and Figma. For general purpose image editing, I use GIMP, and for RAW photo editing I use darktable.

For loops and music, I use Garageband for macOS.

For basic audio editing and audio signal procesing, I use Audacity.

For basic video editing, I use Blender and FFmpeg.

As you can tell, I try to use free and open source stuff when I can.
