Finally some proper monitoring courtesy of @ngholden. Been wanting some Adams for a while, and I think these will be the perfect size in my corner bedroom space.

What is the white synth on top of the rack?
Cwejman S1mk2. Probably the finest semimodular synth in existence

Its white, does it matter what it is?

same but I think I’d be more sad if he’d sold that awesome custom mixer. or the MnM.
also the miniKorg seems to be less popular than initially anticipated as I see discounts on brand new units all the time. so it’ll likely be possible to purchase it again, and possibly for less cash.

I don’t get it
I used to be obsessed with having a studio of all-white gear. I’ve since embraced the dark side

That’s like my setup except I have a different mixer and no Digitakt! How do you like it? These are such amazing synths!
I have a Mikrokorg and hate the cryptic menu system but love the sounds. Pain in the arse to program.
You are aware that we are talking about the miniKORG here?

Yes sir it was side reference to Korg products in general

not really a fair criticism/comparison, IMHO… the miniKorg was Korg’s first synth, made almost 30 years before the microKorg. the original mini is all analog, with one knob per function. the re-release of it is as well, and only adds a digital flavor in the form of midi+USB I/O, and ten buttons that store and recall presets. no screens, menus or matrices. the micro was all digital, and the opposite of one knob per function. editing it was an exercise in matrix and hidden menu editing via a set of seven knobs for about a hundred different parameters. a completely different experience, basically. it’s still an awesome synth though!

Happy holidays Elektronauts. Hope all reading this are well. I have finally got my latest setup to a reasonable place so thought I would share it here!
I recently moved house and it’s taken some time to get setup again. After several months all in all I am now in a good place with this spare bedroom setup. It’s a small room but I like the size. The blue mountains were already a feature when we moved in and yes, they are staying 
.
I do have other machines but this is the most I like to have out at any one time really. I guess I kind of have a ‘creation space’ if you like with the left hand table being where I build the rhythmic aspects of tracks and jam ideas, and the central desk being more studio/recording focused. The Yamaha Reface runs into the Quadraverb, but can also be a midi controller to the Roland JV 1080, or for Ableton via USB. It’s great for adding layers or additional synth parts over the top of the stereo recordings I get from the Octatrack.
Overall the workflow is working well. Hoping to complete an albums worth of material in the first half of 2023 with this setup, so will see how it goes.
Big love to all

It’s been a long time coming to this setup. Off screen is an MPC Live, Mutable modules, an OP1 and a Lemondrop, but the Elektrons are the main song-making chain.
The 16 track setup, half drums/samples, half synth, is pretty nicely balanced.
With the Digitone and Digitakt working almost identically, the workflow is almost unified. The A4 is similar, but with an extra layer of complexity.
I paid only slightly more (£20) for my Digitone+Digitakt as I did for my A4. If I only had half the money, I would go for the Digi combo mainly because of 16 voices vs 4.

I guess many can’t afford it. It’s expensive for what it is. A luxury item for sure.

Some will call it a luxury item (and it is), others will call it a necessity item because it brings back memories and sounds absolutely unique and fantastic.
