Home studio setup, finally finished :)

I have been asked a couple of times why I've switched from arranger keyboards like the Tyros and PAX2 to a M3 and DAW setup for home recording.
 
Hopefully this video will answer that.
 
Setup:
Sonar X1 Producer
Line 6 UX2
Alesis Multimix 8 USB
Sound Blaster X-Fi Elite Pro
Lots of VST plugins
Korg M3 88 Workstation
JMT Orchestrator
 
I use an X-Fi instead of a dedicated studio card as this set-up is also used for gaming (and the UX2 and Mixer provide high quality audio).
 
The music is called 120 Proof by Stephen Cox and is encoded into MP3 by Sonar, the track is actually playing on the sequencer, but I've added the track separately to the video rather than use the camera mic.
 

I've slightly remixed the original levels and and am using Guitar Rig 4 for two of the lead guitar tracks to give an idea of the audio processing power of Sonar.
