C'mon Blue Bear, you forgot to mention your Alesis 3630 in your gear list. I know it is one of your favorite and best sounding pieces in your studio. Its ok...you can tell us. :)

An Alesis 3630??? I WISH!!!!!!!!! Those things are sweet........ too expensive and too good-sounding for my level of experience though -- I still have a ways to go to work up to getting a piece of gear that good!

:p :p ;)
 
I know this is a laughable list:D I only started getting into recording at home a year or so ago so must of my stuff was for live. Since then I have bought and traded my way tward some recording gear. I know I put some shit on hear that is out of place but I figured I'd use this for my insurance too.
