sigh. ok, where's my scalpel. I'll have to get some ice from down the road, just hoping it doesn't go off on the plane to argentina.

EDIT: BLOOD, SO MUCH BLOOD....... HOW THE FUCK DO YOU TURN THIS THING OFF?!?!

In the last month solely for the purpose of DJing/production...
Xone DB4 (was supposed to ship May 23, still waiting on a backorder...)
MPK49
iPad

and somewhat related, though not solely for making/mixing tunes:
KRK Rokit 6's with proper monitor stands
Ultrasone Pro 900

and before that...
Denon DN-S1200s (gone)
Denon DN-X120 (gone)
Pioneer DJM909 (gone)
Akai APC40
Ableton Suite
2011 Macbook Pro 13" w/ SSD optibay mod
Technics RP-DJ1200
Sony MDR-V700
an bunch of cables, batteries, and other strange things for playing out in unconventional environments (such as the beach)

Thinking about adding a 27" iMac in, but I'm not so sure its worth bothering to swap files back and forth with my laptop, as nothing I do is terribly hardware intensive.

At least I seem to be doing better than many of you in terms of buying stuff and then deciding to go another direction, my only big sell-off came from the shift from CDJ+mixer to digital DJing.

Damn, how I hate the impatience which is connected with RGAS. Bought an Electribe ESX on ebay this weekend and now all that impatience kicks in (among other things I'm already reading the manual as PDF cause im so eagerly awaiting the box - even though I know it might not arrive here before the weekend or even the beginning of next week)

Lol, I was exactly the same with my DJM-800. I knew every feature of it back to front from the manual weeks before I actually got it (I spent ages lurking on ebay for a good price).

And don't get me started on the Novation Twitch.

If I wasn't basically confined to the couch due to foot injury, I would probably already be out buying some cables (MIDI, patch cables, ...) for directly connecting the ESX to the EMX I already own. Then again I don't even have desk real estate for it - fitting in the Dn-SC2000 a month ago was tedious but possible, but now the ESX? That's a harder task...
