"My Audeze headphones allow me to hear the most accurate version of whatever I'm creating which takes the guesswork out of mixing as I go, especially when I'm streaming live to dozens of viewers."  - SoyisREAL

What is your screen name when streaming?

SoyisREAL

What channels do you stream/post to?

Twitch, Instagram, TikTok, Soundcloud, and Bandcamp.

What projects have you worked on that you might want to showcase?

My beat tapes that I've dropped over the past 2 years: OLDSOY, Just Add Rain Vol. 1-3, and Omakase Sessions Vol. 1. The Just Add Rain series and Omakase Sessions were all entirely produced live on Twitch. And Beanies & Snapbacks featuring fellow MC, Knaladeus.

What are some favorite games, platforms, or other places to interact?

Favorite games are Tekken 7 and Dead by Daylight. I love interacting and creating on Twitch mostly during my live streams.

Describe your streaming system or other relevant hardware.

I stream using a custom built PC loaded with an AMD Ryzen 3900x and a EVGA 3070 as well as 2 cameras (Canon m50 MK2 & Sony a6500).

What's the next piece of gear/software you want to add?

I'd like to add an SP404 to my workflow to run my samples thru and eventually I'd like to upgrade my interface. 

How do your Audeze headphones affect your play/streams/work?

My Audeze headphones allow me to hear the most accurate version of whatever I'm creating which takes the guesswork out of mixing as I go, especially when I'm streaming live to dozens of viewers. It helps me to identify problem areas that I've not been able to hear using other headphones that result in being able to clean up my mixes and pass the car test on the first try.

Do you have any pet peeves when gaming or streaming?

I'd like to focus on the positives of streaming more than my pet peeves (as they aren't really huge bothers in my life). But I love streaming the creative process live on Twitch because it allows me to connect with other artists so that we can learn from one another on the spot. I have made so many meaningful friendships thru streaming music and have learned even more in the almost 2 years I've been on the platform. I especially love just being able to educate and inspire others to continue pursuing their artistic journeys.

What is your favorite color?

Orange.
