I'm interested to see what everyone's favourite piece of Hardware / Software is in your setups.
What can you not live without? What instantly inspires creativity when turned on?
At the moment mine has to be my Copicat Vintage tape delay and the software 'Mixed in Key' (For analysing samples and quickly throwing same key samples together)
Anyone else?

if yr talking synth kit then this JV1080 is a workhorse for basic patch sounds // the string sounds in the expansion pack are Ridiculous!!!
and this I've been liking for more far-out/lazer type patches but is also extremely versatile...
the Machinedrum still wins for just being fun to play with tho.. sick sick out-of-the-box crunchy techno drums and Ez global tweekablity

That is the coolest thing I have ever seen in my entire life........ I want one, I need one in my life. Where did you get it? Did you make it?
Favourite bit of software for me is Cubase 5 along with all its superb built in plugs.
Hardware..... Hmmmmmm probably my hand made bud grinder
