Simple DJ mixer with filters/EQ.

I use this with Traktor for DJ-ing and recording mixes. Very compact, high quality, works great! Probably a bit limited when used by itself if you get into remixing and production, but that is easily remedied by adding an F1, X1, etc.

Great budget monitors with flat frequency response

Great budget monitors with flat frequency response. I also have KRK headphones which compliment these nicely!

Reliable studio headphones with flat frequency response

My go-to studio headphones. They sound great for just about any purpose. I also have KRK monitors, so these compliment those nicely. Nice flat frequency response.

For composing and DJing. Also gaming and interneting.

My MIDI/digital audio interface.

For mixing all my stuff, duh!

Does the job.

Decent sustain pedal. There are pedals out there with better construction and are maybe less likely to break (Yamaha pedals are nice!), but this works just fine for my purposes. Will maybe upgrade someday when I can justify the cost.

Affordable option for fully-weighted keys and versatile use as a controller

I played piano for a decade of my life growing up, so I need weighted keys for inspiration, and this was the cheapest option I could find for fully-weighted keys. The onboard sounds are passable, but I mainly use it as a controller for various things.

Versatile sample pad for live and effects use

Sample pad trigger thingy. Can load samples via SD card, and it can act as a stand-alone unit. Mostly I have used it to play with TR-808 samples through effects pedals, but in theory I would like to use it for triggering samples in a live context.

barebones lo-fi FM synth similar to Sega Genesis

Really barebones/lo-fi FM synth. Pretty sure the chip inside it is either the same or extremely similar to the chip inside a Sega Genesis. Cheap!

Cyberpunk drone machine!

Fully polyphonic FM + 12-bit PCM vector synthesis pad/drone machine. Very 80s/DX7/Wavestation-ish. A little lo-fi, but I run it through some effect pedals and it sounds utterly amazing. Technically this is the desktop version of the SY22.
