    My ears.
    Solitary by nature.
    Isolation is the gift.
    Does anyone have courage to stand apart any more?

    no 1? jesus, it all goes together to make what it is. but i have to say my mackie 824's.

    i really can't believe how my ears just dont get tired with these. speakers are the most overlooked part of the studio when you first get into it.

    Definitely true. A mistake I made was to by cheap(ish) monitors. Spent the rest of the money on my sherman filterbank though which is definitely my fave bit of gear :love:

    Today I am mostly digging the coffee.

    Can't mix without my monitors. Can't sit for ages without a quality display for the computer either.

    Such boring choices though.

    I'll say Waves Metaflanger, which has got to be the most entertaing piece of kit. Try processing individual 1/8ths of a loop with it differently or something.

    Maybe I'll upload this track I'm working on so you can see what I mean, it rocks!

    For me it is the trusty, crusty old tr909...love the sound of it and sequence nearly all my other sounds in external instrument mode. the quantise is fantastic, it just has innate groove

    Also worth a mention is the Sherman filter...what a beast

    yeah - i've got a strict policy of only buying the best stuff - had too much gear be reduced to being doorstops over the years... is worth spending the extra $ i reckon...

    Cubase SX3. Its awesome!

    The only thing it doesn't have which I really want it decent automation curves. The ones in Logic 5 on the pc were ****ing AMAZING! I am guessing they are even better on the mac now (not had a look). I loved how you could control th ecurve. It was so sexy and refined.

    So, yeah. Cubase SX3 (apart from the automation curves)
