Christmas Wish List

If you were to recieve a Christmas present that is a peice of studio equipment, what would it be?

I've been contemplating moving to hardware for a while now so I would be very happy getting the new Access Virus T1 Desktop.

Wow, that's one hell of a christmas gift! I'll be lucky if I get an M-Audio Trigger Finger...

No, I won't be getting it This is only a 'wish' list! I am saving up for some hardware, but it will be quite a few months before I save up enough to buy something like the Virus T1.

^ ok good, because i'd have to call you a spoiled rich bastard who doesn't deserve a piece of gear like that if mommy and daddy are buying it for you.


as a stocking stuffer, my girlfriend is getting me the auralex mopads!!! ...i never thought i could be so happy to get foam for christmas


on a wishlist...i'd like to get headphones (living with cranky parents who always want silence (or so it seems) kinda sux, so i need some phones for when i can't be monitoring at a decent level).

i guess if i were to get all wild and crazy, i'd have to say the new acces TI polar that thing just looks cool, let alone the way it sounds

my wish list:

Korg MS-20
Yamaha CS-15D
Roland MKS-80 & MPG-80
Roland TR-909

But only thing I'll propably be able to afford is Roland JX-8P, but it's enough fun for me (for now).


Posted by dj jasonF on Nov-25-2005 00:03:

an oberheim Xpander and a moog theremin would be cool... but no. monitors, soundcard and a car. i dont care which one as long as it has four wheels.


Posted by DigiNut on Nov-25-2005 01:02:

A PPG 300



Hahahaha


Posted by Dj Ahter on Nov-26-2005 23:13:

Virus IT Polar....
mmmm


Posted by Low Profile on Nov-27-2005 03:09:

Well, since it's only a "wish" list, then I wouldn't mind a Virus TI myself, it's at the top of my list The list includes:

Virus TI
V-Synth XT (Rack version)
Waldorf Micro-Q
Novation KS Rack
M-Audio Firewire 18/14
Korg Kontrol 49
Alesis Ion
and loads of other stuff...

But for X-Mas it'll probably just be the Trigger Finger, I think my parents will just laugh if I ask them for a TI


Posted by djlogik on Nov-27-2005 04:25:

Is that M-Audio Firewire 18/14 essentially a soundcard? Or is it just an external audio kinda thing?


Posted by RIPassion on Nov-27-2005 07:05:

Thinking about going hardware... a used virus C would be really cool


Posted by FrancoR on Nov-27-2005 07:06:

I wish talent


Posted by Vlad on Nov-27-2005 07:24:

I want BT's studio.


Posted by staticblue on Nov-27-2005 11:35:

Just an even better computer would be fine


Posted by Mycron on Nov-27-2005 11:42:

damn... It sucks to be me. there's really not much in my line up now that I wish I had, except TI Polar. Already have most of your list covered. Well, here's my take on your list:

Access TI keyboard - great choice, wait till prices come down a bit and every producer had the chance to regurgitate every sound in their track.

V-Synth XT - eye candy piece of junk. only if you get it for free (take cash instead, buy something useful).

jp-8080 - ah yes... a one-trick (ridden to death) pony. You should be ashamed for even lusting after this. It's like lusting after your friend's having a cell phone. JP lovers - SHUT IT, I DON'T WANT TO HEAR HOW GREAT IT IS. PLEASE, IT'S SO 90'S!

korg ms2000b - same comments as JP, and you should be smacked around just to make sure you're clear. BAD!

Jupiter 8 - Definitely a worthy aquisition. Like Ferris Bueler said: "If you have the means, I strongly recommend it. It is so choice!"

Oberheim MAtrix - be specific which one. There was a really amazing Matrix 12 or Xpander and there was also Matrix 6/1000. While name and some of the engineering thought were similar, the rest is different. Each deserves it's own place and all are stellar. Having owned both, 1000 and Matrix 12 - both pieces will remain with me for as long as they or I shall live. Do stay away from Viscount OB12 - total crap and should not be considered an oberheim!

Juno 6 - Not a bad intrument but owershawdowed by Jupiter 8. Sold my Jupe 6 recently and without much regret.

Clavia Nord lead 3 - See my honest opinion obout NL3 here: http://www.tranceaddict.com/forums/...threadid=304019

Waldorf Q - Hold no defined opinion, however, my experience with it in the store left me unimpressed. Really overshawdowed by other better gear. Let's put it this way - part of waldorf's technology made it into Virus Ti. Can you guess which part????

Korg Triton - great name, if used in context of "trite". Not a bad machine or rompler but can be entirely substituted by decent computer, midi controller and NI Kontakt. Nothing special, IMHO.

Allen & Heath Xone:S6. - Ok, now we're talkin'...

Adam P22A. 80 W x 2 - May I suggest more earthly M-Audio BX5a??? In an extensive side-by-side comparisson at my friend's stuio, we both arrived at conclusion that soundwise they are virtually identical! Oh, and you'll keep about $1500 extra in your pocket too!

99999999 Ghz P4 with 9999gigs of ram - hm... great pick. this would also solve any heating problems you may have this winter. Summer time - well, that's a different story. ;-)



bottom line - great picks but not really needed nowdays. I do have a Jupe 8 and it is probably the only piece I'd keep if I had to sell everything else... It is in pristine condition - I mean AS NEW, no joke... but I paid top buck for it. $3300, to be exact. Is it worth it??? Only if you realy REALY REALY love analog sound and know what to expect. Also, each JP8 sounds slightly different too. Age, condition it was kept in, and so on impact the sound, belive it or not. It is trully the only "organic" instrument I own. By organic I mean unique in a sense like a guitar can be unique.

Bottom line - don't buy gear just because someone said you should have it or it sounds like so and so. Some of the most hyped gear turned out to be junk (see V-Synth XT) and some of the most underrated turned out to be gold (Read about E-Mu PX-7 or other command stations).

Cheers!
