I think the one and only piece of gear I really really miss is my old Midas Venice mixing desk. Big and built like a tank. I'm far from a sonic snob when it comes to mixers or anything really - but that desk made everything sound great. Bought some cheaper and more compact desks after that. A Yamaha, a Presonus, Tascams - fine sound, no complaints, just absolutely no love for them.

Miss the Venice.

Any hardware you got rid of and still have a soft spot for?

I miss my old DBX 160 VU's and my U47 feti.

The 70's / 80's vibes were strong with those.

The Rhodes I played back in high school jazz band.

My Lyra-8. It was a bit unruly and never wanted to settle into the mix, but it had soul.

My ESQ-1. No question.

The K2000RS had some great patches from the internet and I had expanded the ROM to hold them all.

Probably my old Kurzweil PC3X. I really miss having having those 88 weighted keys in the studio and it had some lovely sounding dark pianos and EPs.

My Jupiter-6, that was a wicked synth. Second hand too expensive, but my friend over here has one!

Same as in all these threads; my Digisound 80.

Here was my desktop:

Machine that could do almost anything. Had synths etc. MIDIed into it, ran GVP DSS8+ sampler, 14bit sound (57kHz) into mixer etc. I was so stupid to sell it. :dog:
