2020 a year in gear (what have you/are you bought/buying?)

Congrats! Redco makes really nice things.

I really like my EHX Super Pulsar.

I'm so happy for you.
Especially cause I just ordered one

[cptgone]

I just made 5 separate orders for battery powered clip-on LED lights (the dual type), at $3.49 each.
Combining orders would have added a shipping fee
It's cheaper to have them shipped one by one, from China, than from any store I know.

A height adjustable shower stool, to use as a table to mouse on, while lying in the bed that is the heart of my studio.
Replaces a barrel-shaped scratching post for cats (was a little too high).
Will prolly often be used as a lousy percussion instrument.

I love repurposing products to suit our needs! I can search endlessly with intended products that are just never the right dimensions. And lousy percussion instruments are often the best percussive instruments.

My all time favourite is Martin Hannett used the sound of hairspray being sprayed as a snare sound on Joy Division’s She’s Lost Control.

[vurt]

should have used insette, total control.


80s hairspray joke ftw!

It’s basically the sound of a hole being punched in the ozone layer

Finally sold some stuff so I could afford these. They will replace both my DT 880's and 770's.

Just got my chorus pedal. I won't get a chance to play it until later, but hopefully it sounds just as good in my hands as it did by all those real guitarist demoing theirs.

I hear Chuck Norris once personally punched a hole in the ozone layer.

he once punched a mountain so hard, we now have "the moon"

Bought some crazy cheap Pasadena [bass] guitar cases - I now finally have a case for each guitar, which I find reassuring (in case of an emergency, I can now pack and stack my stringed loved ones). Other cheap brands' cases weren't large enough for most of my guitars.

EDIT
Man do they smell of plastic (or glue?)... I put them outside until that clears.

My Benidub DS71 Dub Siren arrived.
Finally, a synth I can fathom

[McLilith]

I considered getting one of the Behringer desktop synths, but I found a nice deal on this little Mopho. I always did want a Sequential Circuits synth, ever since I first became a synth technician. The Prophet 5 was still a new product back then. And while it says "Dave Smith" on the front, that's a mere technicality. It's really a Sequential synthesizer.



I temporarily have the Mopho sitting atop my Chroma Polaris, which I'm still in the process of restoring to health. (That's why the slider knobs are missing in the photo.) I recently installed new membrane switch panels in the Polaris. It's so much nicer when the controls actually work!
