Lol

A controller + Pirated copy of Reason 3.0, out-of-box, so no extra sounds.
A crappy headset mic
ACID 4.0 and Sound Forge but they aren't installed at the moment.

Haven't attempted a song in months now.

Very little, not taken making music seriously til recently and have lots of bills to pay ;)

Korg MicroKONTROL
Evolution X-Session
AKG K141 Studio Headphones
Samson C01U USB Studio Condenser Microphone
Ableton
Wavelab
A choice selection of plug-ins and VSTis
Shitty old Bose monitors
Dusty old Rotel amp

Loads of mates who play various instruments who are on call and get involved with things here and there ... there's a proper old recording studio over the road and I get some nice source material from time to time. Technically I'm pretty bad and make it up as I go along ... had no formal training or music education :D

I like it, don't use it enough but it's nice. Solid little controller, nice to have infinite rotary encoders, sliders, keyboard and 16 pads to play with. The joystick is handy too.
