Do you ever feel like you are "done" with GAS? (pg. 2)

I'm on the same plain as most of you. Like mystery, I was never that much of a gearhead, but every so often something would come along that would make me GAS hard, but usually if I wait a month or so, and I still want it then I know it's a worthwhile buy. More often than not, the want passes and I can put it down to having just wanted the shiny shiny.
There's only a couple of thing I want that i haven't really got;
A large-ish (24ch) control surface with long throw flying faders, but I really don't the space to justify it.
The new Electribe (but only if it turns out not be a flop which is looking all the more likely sadly).
A DVS system that doesn't annoy the out of me with a loud 1k control tone (doesn't currently exist).
So to be honest, not a lot of GAS and I don't really struggle with it due to my over the top logical brain reasoning that would make Spock look like a cast member of Jackass. |

Nope. I cross one thing off my list, another comes up. I have a backlog of about 5 things I need/want. |
I'm the same.. I've finally just today ordered a Moog minitaur that I've been wanting for a while now. I thought my GAS would have calmed down a bit but now I'm just browsing for the next thing I want but can't yet afford. |

| Yep, finally acquired the 106 again (HS-60 version, with speakers) and I think I'm pretty much set for life. Don't really think I'll need anything else, unless I somehow strike it rich one day and decide to replace my TR-8 with the originals. Although, I may eventually purchase a Korg ES-1 again for sampling, although it's not really much of a GAS, as I've had it in mind for some time. |

GAS = Gear Acquisition Syndrom.
Here in Norway we call it manic depression. |
Manic depression has dips and peaks.
GAS is always on.
You're doing it wrong. |

I am completely over GAS ATM.
Especially for hardware, got everything I need now. Virus, Sherman filterbank, Soundcard, headphones and monitors - I rarely use the virus or Sherman either :)
Software wise i've got more than I can ever learn to use
You could have racks of synths and quality outboard gear but will it make your tunes good? hell no!

Was thinking the same thing :cry: though if you play around with Bitwig's XY effect you can do alot of the same things as Molkeluar for free ;)
My most recent GAS was Glitch 2, though it was pretty cheap luckily. |
