Gear I Want/Need/Could Use

- A decent dynamic mic for tracking drums and such
- ProTools 9, so I don’t have to plug in a damn MBox everytime I want to work on a mix
- an Apogee Duet - apparently beautiful converters and pres, portable so I can record on the go
- Digidesign 003, or some other interface (thanks, Berklee, but I’ve become skeptical of my MBox Pro…)
- speaker mounts/stands so I can set up my new monitor next to my laptop and in effect run 3 screens at once
- A new snare, possibly that Stewart Copeland chrome-plated brass signature
- a bigger hard drive, so I can have everything….EVERYTHING on board. My current data management situation needs a serious makeover….
- more RAM, so my (relative) dinosaur-of-a-laptop can actually handle my projects without panting
- Omnisphere softsynth library….’cause everybody’s doin’ it!
- a Fender Thinline Telecaster….this one’s more for my soul’s indulgence :D


…Ahhh, now to make that chedda.
