  5. Sean Twitch AMA, June 2022"Pencha and 19 Headaches, related in production method? Interesting question, yes. Both Nord, mostly. I think Pencha is completely Nord. Actually, oh no, the drums are Yamaha RY30. Yeah, RY30 and Nord. In fact, they're both RY30 or Nord. So yeah, basically yeah, they are, and Logic [Pro] Environment, sort of pre-Max patches, I guess you could call them."
