Ha. I always find it surprising when someone surround themselves with tons of gear and then they are incapable of coming up with something incredible-sounding, which ironically can often be achieved by a simple 4-track or similar.

thats what I was trying to say...
but it surely could have been possible that you got "only" access to that.
sorry my fault

of course!
size absolutely doesnt matter in that case. but it would be great to spend some days experimenting (liek you would do it with a 4track too)

Sure, I'd love to play with all that gear big time and it looks very appealing.

I think if I would have all that stuff, I would get lost easily. for me its better to be limited!
you can change the whole world with a monosynth and a drummachine / guitar and drummer etc.

btw @crypto is that just you using it?

I just got a Roland 24 track (no laptop recording for me).

I'd post pics of this shit, but it's probably boring to look at.

I've added a lot, the room has closed in on me and some shit rearranged.... but here's the most recent pic I have handy

Here's a few recording samples that were in the works at the time of the picture. Me and a couple friends.... no longer playing together:

Crypto, what's the word on the studio.... yours? is it private or public?

I'm now the proud owner of this:

nice craigslist deal I just picked up.....

after borrowing a '72 Tele Deluxe RI and falling in love with it, I've been looking for one. It will incur some mods, but is a fine guitar already.

Still in awe with crypto's sound palace, I would be like a lost puppy in that place.
Also, Freshchops, very nice man, I have a big place in my heart for orange amps. Online will always be the place to get decent deals on guitars won't it?

After finding this vid on the tube of silver rocket being played on a wesley san diego and then seeing they only cost around £80! I think this might be the next electric I purchase.
