Hi there, I thought a little list of peoples equipment might give some ideas to the new artists in here, as well as spark some discussion about techniques of production...

so here's my list at the moment:

AKAI MPC1000 - Sequencing, Drum programming.
Great little machine for sampling, it's so easy to make great grooves with this box.

Ensonique ESQ-1 - Synthesis, Melody
Old school synth from the 80's, nice analog filter and 3 oscillators for some wild synth forms. Lots of fun to make patches with, good range of sounds.

Roland ALPHA JUNO-1
Another old school synth, lots of funky presets, and the PG-200 make programming patches a breeze. Fun funky sounds, lots of reminders of early trance/house.

TI Speak and Read (Ghazala Bends)
Built this one by the book, some great noises and hilarious loops. Actually sentient, it displays phrases like "I GAIA". How unusual! (take a look at my profile for pics). Unfortunately, it's also claims to be paranoid.

CD Recorder - Picked it up at a pawnshop for 100$, uses CD-RW's...really handy for recording those sets pre mix down.

Old "Alto" mixer, 8 tracks. Not worth mentioning, hopefully upgrading soon!
One very old Toshiba CD player, with no antiskip protection...useful for databending.

For FX, I have an Alesis AIRFX, sooooo much fun for getting those hand patterns gives you lots of creative control. Good filters, flangers. I also have an Alesis Microverb used in tandem for delay and reverb patches.

Right now, i'm actually working on an amazing find....

CASIO SK-100!!!!
I'm implementing a 32 point RCA patchbay, with assignable switches and potentiometers. The patches are directly connected to the internal 12-bit sampling RAM, and just testing out a few the leads made some insane and wild combinations. WO keyboard, WOOO!
I'll post some samples of this beautiful creation once it's finished....

So what is in your studio?
