Post your latest purchase! Posted on: 08.01.2012 by Takisha Daugherty I believe this would be a fun thread, what have you all bought recently? Here's most of what I bought this past week, thanks to Christmas bonuses and gift cards: (but with GREEN wheels ) and this t-shirt: What about you?
Francie Gindin 12.06.2012	Love this thread! So much good stuff going on. My latest purchase is a Xone 62 in perfect condition for not much money . As a side note it's amazing how different the EQ curves are between this and my Xone 22.

Dorie Scelzo 10.06.2012	Originally Posted by Patch I love new cables. I love good cables. I can't afford them most of the time, so I go with "good enough" and "not likely to break" and deal with them coiling badly.

Romelia Stankard 09.06.2012	Originally Posted by mostapha My session. He (he's a drummer) was playing my maschine hosted as a plugin in my copy of PT 10, monitored through the XMON attached to an HD2 rig running PT8. The only reason we were doing it there is because their genelecs are in a better room than my KRKs (more space and sounds better). It's barely worth the effort…it's just free for me. Next time we do it, we'll probably just be using computer speakers at his place. what are you working on?
Dorie Scelzo 08.06.2012	Originally Posted by djdunamis About to say, you want us to stand on our heads to see it, lol. There's several options for motorized faders without taking a loan out to buy. Command 8 and Avid has some new controllers as well for Pro Tools. Aren't you recording your Maschine into his session anyway? My session.

Next time we do it, we'll probably just be using computer speakers at his place. I'll be mixing in there because of their monitors, but I'll just be bringing bounced audio files. There's no reason to track in there except the speakers. About your suggestions… The Command 8 is one of the ones being considered, along with the Avid Artist series stuff and some older gear that I might be able to find. A Tascam US-2400 would be one option, though it's missing scribble strips and a bit expensive. I just don't understand why you'd pay $300 for something that's just not as good when there are multiple options around $1000 that are easily 3-4 times better. But the $60 toy will keep me from racking up credit card debt I don't need until I can actually justify the expense. The top end I'd actually consider would be an SSL Nucleus…and that seems a bit extravagant for what it is compared to a couple Artist series controllers and a monitor controller. I do wish that Maschine had an HUI emulation the way it emulates Mackie Control……except it's MC emulation didn't really work and kept glitching out with Logic. Endless encoders and scribble strips would be an easy choice if they were like $300. IDK…maybe it's worth trying a Remote SLmk2 and just ignoring the fader half……if I can get automap to do it. About the console in that picture……The D-Control/D-Command controllers are really cool…but they are not worth their price just to have EQs and Compressors auto-mapped and a few extra rotaries per channel that never map sensibly. For the price of the D-Control, I'm pretty sure you can buy an entire Pro Tools HDX rig with Apogee converters and a very decent 24-channel analog console…and the price of the D-Control doesn't include the HD rig that it takes to run it or the XMON that it takes to make it half worthwhile. The only reason to even believe about the better ones is that PT has 2 pan knobs for stereo channels…which is weird…but easily solvable using buses. The difference between a few hundred and 1-5 grand is evening & day……the difference between 1-5 grand and 30 grand is tiny.
Sylvia Greener 08.06.2012	Originally Posted by djdunamis There's several options for motorized faders without taking a loan out to buy. Command 8 and Avid has some new controllers as well for Pro Tools. Some others are the Mackie Control Universal Pro (kind of classics) and the Icon Qcon Pro which goes very easy on the budget! For about 4200 bucks you will be able to buy a SSL Nucleus which has fantastic build-quality and 16 channels!
Wallace Lawmaster 07.06.2012	Originally Posted by mostapha Not bad for $60…and a lot better to write automation than the mouse. But, uhh…it's convinced me that I don't care about the Novation Remote Zero SL mk2 (or anything like it). I've decided that $60 is the most I'd pay for a DAW controller that doesn't have touch-sensitive and motorized faders……which sadly means that I'm looking for older, discontinued stuff or spending a couple grand when it's time to upgrade. That's a friend of mine. That control surface is awesome if you don't have to pay $30,000 for it. BTW…here's the sad thing. They own different plugins than I do……mostly maschine……which doesn't do iLok authorization. So, when tracking drums live from maschine, I have to use my computer. We're basically using $200,000 worth of hardware in a $150,000 sound proof room to send a stereo pair to the genelecs. Edit: No, I don't know why the picture is upside down. tinypic apparently sucks.

I didn't have access to it the first time because I was off campus and they stopped allowing ssh/scp access to the web server for some stupid reason related to their "grand plan" to fuck over students, faculty, and alums.
Dorie Scelzo 06.06.2012	Originally Posted by djdunamis Also have a Novation 25 SL MKII and Maschine coming for production. Please post how you like the novation…I'm seriously considering picking one up (probably the zero model) to control pro tools (because Maschine won't do HUI, and pro tools won't do mackie control).

Sylvia Greener 02.06.2012	Originally Posted by Xonetacular The good news is production cured my DJ gear addiction. The bad news is production gear and synths are a bottomless pit, and modular is the worst of it. So true! Fortunately, I am not yet at the point where it comes to buying modular synths. +1 for the Phatties
Romelia Stankard 02.06.2012	Originally Posted by mostapha Yeah, but the voyager EB and RME are just so freaking pretty. Oh yeah, the RME should just be priced at $1,600 tops. They also have issues with tuning and you pretty much need to send them back to moog since they are hard to service and don't have any auto tuning or self tuning like the phattys.
Dorie Scelzo 02.06.2012	Yeah, but the voyager EB and RME are just so freaking pretty.
Romelia Stankard 01.06.2012	The good news is production cured my DJ gear addiction. The bad news is production gear and synths are a bottomless pit, and modular is the worst of it. At least with DJ gear you can easily get to a point where there just isn't any more gear you could cram into one setup. Still this should be fun- at least you can space out modules and there is some incredible performance you can't get anywhere else in modules for a couple hundred bucks. It's a much better value than some of the ridiculously overpriced monosynths like the moog voyager.
Dorie Scelzo 01.06.2012	Yeah…me neither. I feel like it's actually getting better to some degree…I don't actually want anything on the DJ side at the moment. Except black crack. The production side is a bit of another story, though. Still…plans << dreams. God help me if I got into modular.
Romelia Stankard 01.06.2012	I'm not very good at holding onto money.
Dorie Scelzo 01.06.2012	Congrats, xone & otacon.

Dorie Scelzo 31.05.2012	I bought a very small pile of vinyl from a used shop: couple old acid tracks from like '96 and a couple hip hop tracks I want to sample some vocals from. Man, I miss proper dance record stores. Going through 300 crappy $2 r&b singles and albums to find the 4 cool dance records in a shop that caters to folk and "world music" collectors is much more relaxing than trolling beatport, but it's just not the same. And, seriously, why do all the online record shops' websites suck?
Evelyn Navarijo 31.05.2012	Not buying a lot of DJ gear these days (except vinyl...). Camera stuff on the other hand (analog stuff is so cheap and wonderful...) Bought the cable release, owned the camera for a while (passed down from my mum).
Dorie Scelzo 30.05.2012	Originally Posted by brian_johnstone ive got one of these sitting in my front room... cant play it for the life of me but it makes a cool noise!! It's a lot like singing. Pitch is more or less the amount of space in your mouth/throat/chest cavities and volume is a combination of how hard you flick the thing and how you're breathing.
Golden Faubert 30.05.2012	Originally Posted by sarasin LOL....you a cowboy? Just teasin....I used to have a Jewish Harp aka Jaw Harp...aka Juice Harp. Attachment 9742 ive got one of these sitting in my front room... cant play it for the life of me but it makes a cool noise!! on topic: moved to serato and love it... won't look back!!
Julianna Riecken 29.05.2012	This and a decksaver for my S4, I mentioned in another thread that Juno.co.uk are giving free decksavers away with the F1 and there is a 10% off kit til June 5th with code SUMMER12
Dorie Scelzo 24.05.2012	Originally Posted by JohnnyDrama Agreed, but a pricey policy Enh. I don't know why people want to have as much storage on their laptop as they do at home. That just makes me never want to do anything at my desk. My 120 was like $400 when it was a relatively new design and it freaking screams. Now it costs $220 and came with a 5 year warranty. It might have been expensive when I got it, but I don't consider $220 for that drive the least bit extravagant.
