Sorry, I can't be bothered to make such a list. To be honest, I don't understand why any of you would.
Incomplete list of my gear: 1/8" audio input jack.

Take too long to list individually but...

10 guitars
3 basses
4 amps
c. 120 FX pedals / rack units

Currently looking for a Champ or Princeton amp. Always interested in FX pedals

It's interesting to see what other people use and/or brag about our own stuff. And personally I find it helps me reflect on buying/usage habits.

Anyway. Current lineup:

Infrastructure/misc:
Maschine MK2
Komplete Audio 6
6 year old IBuyPower gaming PC running Windows 7
Edirol MA-10A monitors
Zoom H4 recorder

Synths:
Arturia MicroBrute (also serves as MIDI controller)
Twisted-Electrons AY3
Soulsby Atmegatron
Groovesizer TB2
Olegtron* 4060
Thingamagoop 3000 (shipping soon; also serves as FX and CV control source)
2x Patchblocks with MIDI Block (also can serve as FX and CV control source)
Stylophone

Other instruments:
SX Ursa short-scale fretless bass
Moog Etherwave Standard theremin (possibly in need of repair, possibly just bad AC power in our old house)
Korg Wavedrum
HAPI Origin (D Akebono scale)
Variety of acoustic hand drums & percussion

FX:
Red Witch Fuzz God
Danelectro French Toast
Little-Bear R.Attack (RAT clone)
Zoom G1On

In the closet:
Casio CZ-101
Korg DS-8
Korg padKontrol
Rogue Jersey Lightning lap steel
some terrible Chinese Fender clone
Cecilio electric violin
a couple of cheap, uninteresting chorus and flanger pedals
M-Audio Axiom 25 controller

Previously owned:
Moog MicroMoog
Hohner Bass III
Yamaha DX100
Korg DW-8000
Oberheim DPX1
Meeblip Anode
Twisted-Electrons TherapSID
Devi Ever Truly Beautiful Disaster
Devi Ever Rocket

What's missing? Space. :lol: I have no room for more keyboards and not much for desktop synths either. But honestly I don't feel there is anything particularly "missing" from my setup, just a few more toys I would no doubt enjoy:

Waldorf Streichfett
Volca FM
Jomox T-Resonator
SoundMachines MODULÖR114
random other bits

Synths
Spectral Audio Neptune 2
Studio Electronics ATC-X QFS
Sonic Core XITE-1 (this one is both instrument, effect processor and PCIe audio interface)
Novation Bass Station 2
Sequential Circuits Prophet 6
Roland System 1m
Apple iPad Pro

Numark Axis 9 (CD player for sample mangling/playback.)

Effects
Kemper Amp Profiler
Blackstar Dual HT Distortion pedal
Electro-Harmonix Cock Fight

The only thing I'm "missing" is a sister synth for the System 1m, probably a Mother 32 or Erebus, but I'm not quite sure which one or even if I want to continue down that path. My idea was to set up a little Eurorack system but not in a full on modular concept but more like marrying two semi-modulars together to make a 3 oscillator mono that would replace the Neptune 2. I wish I could borrow a Mother 32 for a week to see if I dig it, but as it is I'm not sure if the patch cable work flow works in my world.

I might also sell the XITE-1 and get a Modal Modulus .002 and some audio interface. I'm only using it for it's Modular synth (which is pretty kick ass) and effects (also very good) but sometimes I think I'd be better off with a fixed architecture instrument and I must say I do G.A.S. Hard for a .002. I find I just spend a lot of time messing about in Scope Modular, experimenting and exploring what all the modules do (there's hundreds of them) instead of playing. Of course, there's nothing stopping me from using the patches I've created like fixed architecture plug ins. They do have their own preset system, like Reaktor. I flip flop about this a few times a week. What I really know I should do is just start saving for the .002. :oops:

Then why bother posting? It's just for fun.
Why bother posting? Because this is a conversation, and I feel inclined to voice my opinion. :shrug:

I'm not joining into this thread until Wagtunes turns up to tell us how dumb we all are for wasting money on archaic hardware.

I recently had a bunch of synths and romplers but trimmed it down to:

-Roland Jd-xi (2 digital synths + 1 Analog and drums)
-Nord Lead A1

I also use my Ipad as external synth + rompler if that counts :)
