Gear lust

Post by obscurity »

I just bought this to play with, after drooling over it for the past couple of months. I predict I'm going to spend more time tweaking my studio setup over the next month or so than I will actually writing any music :)

What new bits of gear have you folks got recently that you're chuffed with?

Just Reaktor, which is software, not hardware, but it's very cool.

Yeah, I'm quite the reaktor junkie myself. The only software I would recommend ahead of reaktor is cubase, and even then it'd be a tough call. Good choice! :)

Just bought a Hammond Porta-B. Basically a chopped B3 (L-100 to be exact) for the road. It's still heavy as all hell, at nearly 200 lbs, but it's considerably less bulky than my Hammond M-3, making it plausible for gigs.

It needs some work before it's road ready, but once it is, it'll be a monster.

The next big thing on my list is a pedal steel. Serious money to be made playing that in the Dallas area.
