What's in your Lab?

Always curious to see what other people are using these days. Some people are very private about what their lab contains, like I used to be. Then I realized it was the brains behind the brawn in the lab. Anyway, here is my list.

MPC4000, 8 outs, full memory; mpc2000 barely works anymore
external SCSI hard drive
Roland 707
Mo' Phatt EMU
Roland jv1080, drum and bass exp
Korg Trinity
Roland vs840
Digi002, protools, not yet running
Phillips CDRW
Yamaha RM1x
PC with 1 gig RAM,
Technics 1200

Does anyone have any suggestions as to what I could add? I was thinking about a mc909, or the td-8. I write break-beats, hip-hop, jungle.

I gots a bunsun burner, a couple of beakers, a pipet,.....sh|t I even got an erlenmeyer flask!!

YOu have enough sounds, get a real Preamp for those weak digi002 pres and a nice mic.
Avalon Pre,
U87,
Blueberry,
Numan,

You would be surpirsed how much a good preamp will take you to that next level of production.

MPC4k, E-mu XL-7 w/Mo'phatt expansion, Akai DPS 24, Roland Juno 106, Yamaha Sy2, Triton Le 88, SP-505, Vestax pmc05, Numark TT200, Fk load-o-records and a heap of crazy circuit bent toys(speak & spell/math, casio sk-1/pt-75)

Lookin @ gettin a motif es6 cos I sold my Nordlead 2 by mistake and I dont own the triton 88.... long story
