Alrighty there? This is my setup thread, a few days before a big purchase and then another one on the horizon for my birthday, so I wanna sort of chart my progress with my setup in this thread.

I started on a Novation Nocturn, which i used for transport, eq, mixing and effects.
I then bought an Audio 4.
Then i made the ridiculously bad purchase of the Numark M3, which is an incredibly bad mixer.
Then I added 1210s, and completed my setup.
I got a Korg Kaossilator at Christmas time, but I decided it wasnt for me.

Both the Nocturn and Kaossilator are for sale on the Buy & Sell community at the moment to fund an X1! RIGHT HERE

Finally got the monitors I've so badly needed for so long! excellent for my newly found love of production as well! Need to get some stands for the monitors, and getting a keyboard soon for producing off a friend of mine who bought it then never used it. Next on the hit list is a new mixer, and a small soundcard to record into my mothers laptop as i cant seem too make Ableton work with my laptop soundcard while i use my audio 4, anyone have any advice on a good really cheap card? doesnt have to be very high quality, its just to record sets for podcasts!

nah man i dont scratch, though the faders are mangled, the crossfader doesnt work, the master volume has this god awful scratchy noise anytime i try and turn it up or down, the EQ's are about the only thing that still works on it! believe i may need to replace it some time soon i'm just not sure where the funds are coming from! haha

they're fives man, i'm far too poor for 8's unfortunately. may add a sub at some point way on down the line, but i actually really like my 5's, and i reference on my krk headphones as well because they can go to 25hz for sub-bass!

bought myself a condenser mic for the studio, also expecting to get a wee keyboard off one of my mates who doesn't use it, which will keep costs down. also planning on purchaing the Korg M1 Legacy plugin, and possibly a little hardware groovebox, mc-303 maybe. i've always loved 909's and recently i've found myself using only kits of 909 sounds in productions, a 909 style drum machine would be perfect... i've even looked at kits x0xbox style but they have nowhere near the same level of support as you would for an x0xbox!

havent taken a picture as my technics are away being repaired at the moment but i got this little fella, a Samson CO1-U, not bad for the money! I've recently started podcasting and really needed something to be able to do voiceovers, plus it has opened me up to a new realm of vocal samples!

Open it up and clean it out! It will sound better for the effort.

Got the X1 i've wanted for over a year and a half, and it's really blown me out of the water, i'm no longer just using loops when i'm getting a bit near to the end of a track, but instead i'm using it in a creative way combined with FX to create some awesome atmospheric effects, even after i've faded in my next track. It's really opened up how I mix into a whole different dimension, and i honestly adore it. Will get a picture later! Next up a laptop stand!

It is with great regret that I had to sell my Nocturn I really need the cash so I had to sell it, though I'm starting the saving for an X1 soon! It's gonna be weird for me not mixing with effects anymore, though the last time I did it i found I played with the EQs a lot more and carving the sound with the 3 bands to give filter sweep-esque effects, which I use often now in conjunction with the effects. Onwards and now controllerless!
