Ahh, yes. The Bloody Beetroots. Led by none other than NO Mask clad frontman/musician/producer, Sir Bob Cornelius Rifo.
Faderport 16 as a centerpiece of Sir Bob Cornelius Rifo's studio setup
PreSonus: For those who don't know already, please tell us about yourself and what you've been up to?
Sir Bob: Been in the music business since 2006, worked with a lot of artists from Paul McCartney to Tommy Lee, going to Jason Aalon Butler, to Zhu.
I've played all the major festivals of the world, multiple times; Coachella, Lollapalooza, Primavera Sound, Rock im Ring, Rock imPark, Sziget, EDC, Summer Sonic, Fuji Rock I could go forever.
I'm a musician, producer, and photographer-and I go crazy for motors!
PreSonus: So, tell us how did the Faderport 16 and you become involved?
Sir Bob: I fell in love with the original Faderport almost four years ago and now got crazy with FaderPort 16. I needed a simple and solid machine. This fit the bill nicely!
Long story short-I love mixing and having control of the faders under my fingers. Nothing can replace the human touch and the Faderport 16 somehow returns it back.
PreSonus: What DAW do you use with the Faderport 16?
Sir Bob: Ableton Live 10.
PreSonus: What would you say you like most about PreSonus?
Sir Bob: Your customer service, peripheral installation speed, and ease of product use.
PreSonus: Any tips or tricks with our products you'd like to share?
Sir Bob: As you can imagine, I'm not new to DAW controllers. I've played with a lot of them, and I've bought many during the years from Mackie to SSL. This is the only one that has never given me any problems which should be a priority for all controllers out there, just saying.
PreSonus: In closing what would be on your wish list from us in the future?
Sir Bob: I'm dreaming about the Faderport 24. MAKE IT REAL!!!
