Young musical talent Isyana Sarasvati, 22, goes crazy over the latest gadgets that the market has to offer ' especially those offering pink models.
'I love gadgets ' so bad, since I was a little. There were times where I entered music competitions just for the [money] prize, so I could buy my favorite gadgets,' the talkative Isyana told The Jakarta Post.
She revealed that her first gadget purchase was the classic Nokia 3610 cell phone when she was 9 years old.
'Since then, I got used to buying my favorite gadgets with my own money. It's a great feeling,' added the alumna of the Nanyang Academy of Fine Arts in Singapore and the Royal College of Music in London and holder of a Bachelor of Music.
Isyana, who released first single 'Keep Being You' in 2014 and follow-up single 'Tetap Dalam Jiwa' (Within My Soul) in March, said that her utmost weakness was for cute and tempting pink gadgets.
The singer said that she once impulsively bought a pink Samsung mobile phone while strolling in a mall in her hometown of Bandung, West Java. 'Actually I already had two mobile phones at that time, but I couldn't help it ' that pink boxy Samsung thing was so cute.'
iPhone, iPad Mini, Macintosh
I tried all the iPhone 4 and 5 models, and now I use the 6 version. Currently I'm in gold mode ' I use the iPhone 6 gold version. My secondary smartphone is a Samsung, also in gold, but I can't remember the type. Besides those two, I use an iPad Mini and iPod Touch on a daily basis. For music work, I use a Macintosh computer, where I employ LogicPro software.
I'm still a beginner with LogicPro, but I think it's a perfect tool for me to work in this commercial world. It allows you to connect with any keyboard with MIDI output and speakers, and it can be a sequencer as well, which enriches your sound when you're in a live performance. Before LogicPro, I used Sibelius, which is suitable for classical pieces.
Digital cameras
I bought several digital cameras over the past few years ' one of them was a pink Canon Ixus but I lost it. What's left is a Samsung camera, I can't remember which type, a Casio Exilim and Fujifilm Instax Mini instant camera ' all are in pink.
I just bought a new camera, by the way. It's a Canon PowerShot ' I love to use it on vacations to take selfies. I used to browse the Internet first before buying any gadgets. But for this Canon, I didn't. So, it took me about two hours in a shop just to decide between this Canon and a Nikon camera.
