I'm currently on a 15" Retina MacBook Pro.
For live music, I play on a Native Instruments Traktor S4 at either our office or at home.
I'm still very new to creating music, but for that I use a Native Instruments Maschine Mikro 2.0.
I use a pair of white Pioneer HDJ-2000s for headphones.
Browser
It's based on Chromium, so to customize it you can inspect it just like any other web element.
Coding & Development
I tend to build things with Ruby, and I'm pretty in love with that language even after all these years.
I write code in Atom, the text editor we've been working on for six years at GitHub.
Media
For regular daily listening, I use iTunes.
Storage
I'm wary of cloud-based music offerings ever since iTunes Match inserted a country song in the middle of Dre's 2001.
