I bought a bunch of stuff too, but the one thing
that I was *whipped* into buying (not merely *tempted*), was a Roland XP-80. I tried a Fantom, with a mind towards buying it, and after trying it out, and realizing how much I HATE the new Fantoms, I bought the cleanest XP-80 I could find. Sure, the XP's sounds are somewhat cheesy, but that's not the point. I don't even think I have the audio out from my XP80 going to the patchbay....

Sonar 3pe, a total waste ripoff
Tracktion, a true treasure, stable and easy to use. Hope the update doesn't tank.
edirol pcr30, I like it........at least it always works
guitar port. yep, you heard right....100 bucks, stable soundcard (yes, nobody is more suprised than me) and again, it works.
Artist Drums, waste.....total waste. Sounds are toooooooo processed and you can't change them.
Groove Agent. AWSOME, VERSITLE AND STABLE AS HELL, but you do need to work with the sounds or hook up different samples via midi.
Battery 2. (what's next, bfd? xfl? proably I love playing with drum sounds!) Well again it's NI and that means they care more about registration than the customer. But, if they can fix the bugs, I do like the drum sounds ALLOT.
Lets see.......mostly the cheap crap works and the expensive stuff sucks donkeys.
Guess I'll just keep from buying next year.
MERRY THANKSNEWYEARS TOO YA AWL!!or whatever your holidays are

Ableton Live 4 (best purchase ever)
Wusikstation
A load of other stuff like Neuropack from psychic modulation, and loads of stuff bought then sold including Reason, UC33, X-Session, Discovery and more
Cue vurt for a quick piss-take
I've calmed down a (little) bit now. Although oddly i still wish i had Reason 1.0 that i got cheap, if it would work well with Live as i suspect!
Damn my software trading addiction
