What bit of kit would you spend it on?? Hardware only.

Just curious what comes out of this...

cheers

MIDI controller. I don't need much other hardware at this point. what would you get?

Based on current setup, I'd buy a table, a medium sized dry wipe board, some dry wipe markers, second hand Technics and the rest on a stack of second hand vinyl.

Perhaps a new midi controller - such as the Novation SL 25. My friend lent me his for a few days, they are pretty good.

Or a real fast SSD drive for my laptop, it'll make things much faster and smoother.

Or put it to one side and wait to see what Bitwig is like, as I'm liking what I see so far.

What are you thinking midi controller wise?

Not sure yet... I'm thinking something for the live performance setup (currently Live, Xone K2 and Novation Launchpad).

Thoughts on Launchpad vs Quneo?

Possibly put towards a new soundcard for DJ purposes (the Xone K2 has a soundcard built in but could do with a dedicated one), possibly a DJ mixer (DJM 250), pos a 2nd hand turntable to learn scratching on...

more inspiration please

That's ambitious for £250? A dry wipe board would be sweet though. I've got just enough room on my wall too (that is unless I fill it with another bass trap! lol)

Or you could all chip into to the "skint lloyd fund" and purchase me a few faders then i can lay them all out on my studio desk so i feel like i'm nearly a pro with pro equipment!!!I'd be happy to die at that point.
