what was the first piece of gear you ever got..

.. and do you still have it?

as for me, the only 'gear' i got is a midi keyboard so that doesnt really count. though for some reason i notice that remove the dust on it about twice a day and if anyone presses a key without me telling them to do so i get pissed. (even if the only touch it twice softer then i do normally )

so... tell me

*and do you got some kind of special connection with it*

What counts as "gear"? Because I don't have any hardware.

My first synth was my Yamaha DX7II-FD. I still have it a use it in just about every track. The basses are a staple in trance. I love it, but I think I will never master it... programming it is a Biatch.

Besides an old Oberheim Matrix 6 keyboard that I use for midi input that I've had from when my brother bought it back in the 80s, I recently bought some studio monitors, the Mackie HR824s and I love them very much.

I got Yamaha CS6X as my first hardware syth.

From then I expand and upgrade!

Posted by sonic_akb on Jul-30-2004 12:41:

My first synth was a CS6x with 2 PLG150-AN boards, so I sold them after 1 year and I bought a lot of synths: Supernova II, Microwave XT, Juno 106, MKS-80 and Samson monitors.

ak.

A Roland SH101 and TR606, that was over 20 years ago. Served me well for over 5 years!
