Logic. Hammond sound comes from a macbook running my tweaked version
of VB3 1 (running on AU Lab, no GarageBand just because it was faster
to setup!), piano coming from my own mac, running mainstage (I bought
that because of this list!), again because it was faster to setup,
since the piano itself arrived after most of the sounds were done.
I worked on my own sound myself, Igor (really a recording _genious_)
tweaked a lot the piano sound to make it more realistic.
