(Yawn.) Privacy, piracy, and other obligatory schtuff...
This page is being reconstructed little at a time...

In the meantime, we shall provide text in this space explaining what equipment Dave uses to make his music:

Guitars:
Gibson Explorer (EMG pickups, H4 and H4A)
Ibanez RG with pickups designed by EMG
Ibanez RG320EX with pickups designed by EMG and tremolo
Early 1990s Samick SG (Stock pickups)

Elixer strings, heavy picks

Distortion:
BOSS MT-2 Metal Zone Pedal
BOSS VF-1 FX Unit used to emulate an amp head
Behringer Ultra-G DI used to emulate cabinet/mic

Vocal recordings:
Heil PR-20 Dynamic XLR Microphone
M-Audio Aries Condenser XLR Microphone

Other FX:
Line 6 Constrictor Compressor Pedal
Fostex MR-8 used as a DI to input sound back into the computer

Recording Computer:
Dell XPS with 2 M-Audio Delta 192 sounccards running in sync
Cakewalk Sonar Home Studio v6 Software
REAPER Multitrack DAW Software
EZ-Drummer virtual drummer

Notes:
Raw guitar signals are fed into one soundcard then put back out via direct hardware monitoring, after which the signal is put through all FX and distortion, then fed back into the other soundcard. - This allows for re-amping and simutaneous recording of both dry and processed guitar sound.
