I've put alot of effort in hiding all cables in my studio. It's great untill you need to move stuff around. I'm too lazy for that so I just buy new wallwart adapters each time 😅 Universal adapters work well though, as long as I don't lose those pesky barrel connectors. 😄

I picked up a used Behringer Neutron at a nice price. Interesting and pretty fun semi-modular. Lot of nice ptches to try out there. As well as things to try fron my other semi and my Euro rack system.

Now is your time to shine, you're finally in a group where nobody judges you for your gear collection. Whether you have a single synth or an entire warehouse, I'd love to see your setups 😁 By the way, feel free to invite your fellow synth nerds.

I've been using analog mixers in my setups ever since I started with music production. No fancy studer, ssl, or neve consoles, just a box with lots of inputs, outputs, and routing options. I find having every synth, effect, or drum computer accessible by just opening up a fader is such an incredible time saver. The option to sum multiple inputs and record with effects is something I simply can't live without. I just bought a Mackie VLZ4 16 for live performances. There's no time to scroll through menus in a live situation. I need to find my kick drum in a fraction of a second. Actually, building up muscle memory to blindly know where to find each instrument is one of the most important things, in my opinion, for playing live. Dub mixing is also something I'd love to do, just add a delay and reverb on a send, return it to a channel, and create feedback loops. You can do this with any analog mixing desk. Do you use a mixer in your live or studio setup? Why or why not?

I'm curious, what synth did you start out with? Mine was the Waldorf Blofeld which my dad bought for my 16th birthday. I replaced the screen and encoders, but other than that it works perfectly fine to this day.
