Lmao yeah man l just got my check today from doing music and buying lil trinkets. Yeah it matches the lights on the MPC Live too and the cordless USB rechargeable mouse that turns colors. Hell with all these lights l don't need a lava lamp lol

Got a tablelclamp light coming, 2-2.5/3.5 hot swappable enclosures coming for storage, plus extra storage using a 4 bay hot swappable tower (eSata for faster speeds), each bay can store either 5TB or 8TB giving me a total of either 20TB or 32TB. One bay will be dedicated for my Easwest Collection because the sounds need to stream fast. The other three will be for storage. Got important projects coming. Finishing up some RnB with a few singets and next week working with two other producers on a documentary score. So that my Ques be on point gotta habe storage.
Gotta be right to get that dough. Gonna get the Elysium Harps, a few SpitFire Orchestral joints and a new blown out computer that's going to be tight.

I'll let ya hear some samples soon.

Oh nah Ill Green, that's eSata connection only not USB connection.

eSata is the new connection That computers come with now with higher speeds than 3.0 USB. Great for streaming sounds. Hell l wish Akai would of put one eSata port on the live and X that would of been sweet.

That will get connected to my computer and lm looking forward to having 32TB of memory real soon.
What l plan to do is save my projects plus drum sounds l made plus the Akai stuff. Sound design etc and back it it up twice.

Esata does 6Gbps and Thunderbolt does like 20GBps.

Too many Action Figures lol. These EMU unit's are great. Love them and I've kept them around for years. Although I'm not a serious as I use to be producing I always have a MPC and a few units to bang out some beats and show my kids how we did it. When the X came out I sold my 2500 and wen't for it. It's what I always wanted in a MPC. I probably won't use it to it's fullest I banged out out beat and let my son rap over it so he has something to show his friends. I push music on my kids so having a MPC and a little studio is a must. Plus some action figures haha

I LOVE my Turbo Phatt, that thing will never get old to me.

I have beat garden, extreme lead, world expedition, and I forgot the 4th one. Mass amounts of good sounds and features on that thing. Still extremely useful imo.

The Audity 2000 is one of my favorites sounds machines by EMU. The way the MPC can control these machines is a match made in heaven. I'm so glad the X is still a Midi Production Center first. Tons of editable sounds at your fingertips with the EMU Roms. I never even have to touch the machines I control them from the X so easy.
I also Have a Orbit and that my friend is using that I'll be getting back soon.
