Getting back to it - INSPIRATION NEW TOYS ASKED
Hello guys,
It has been a certain while since I posted last on the forum. I am getting back to it! Been reading posts along the way the last period. Many have made huge progression in their work and like the fact to see some new talents as well (am really impressed!!)
Every year I want to buy something for myself. Since I hope to finish my Master study this year, I'd like to buy something nice. I have a discount voucher of a large studio related retailer which is also an extra incentive. So my question is: any ideas?
Maybe a new audio interface? (Currently my Xone 4D functions as so)
Maybe something analog? I really want to get a more Stroboscopic artefacts vibe around me (analogue, raw and vague)
Thanks in advance
Current gear:
Adam A7X (2x)+monitor stands+isolation
Allen and Heath Xone 4d
Senheisser HD25 headphones
Novation Launchpad
Novation SL MK II Midi keyboard
Macbook
Ableton Live 9
Tascam DR05 sometype (recorder)

Depends man, what do you think would really benefit your workflow&sound?
Drums, bass, pads, textures, this that the list is endless.
Besides that we need a budget. Looking at your setup it seems an audio interface is you first priority.

Re: Getting back to it - INSPIRATION NEW TOYS ASKED
Hmm a new audio interface is handy but isn't that inspiring.
I'd go for one of these :
- a cheap synth (or a pricey synth if you're minted)
- a couple of guitar fx
- a field recorder
Or to throw in a wildcard option, a sequencer / sampler / drum machine type thing like an Elektron something, one of those news Akais or something similar. The reason I say this is cos after more than year of waiting I finally got a Cirklon last week, and in five days it's changed how I produce completely. Much more fun, much more inspiring, much more like making music than programming a computer.
