Your 2019 in gear: What'd you get? What'd you sell?

Been a relatively stable year for me gear wise.

I'll probably sell the Lexicons in 2020 as I'm frankly not using them, although they are nice, I tend to like my software and the hardware T.C. Electronics M3000 more for vocals. For guitar I use the FX8 still out of laziness b/c it's been setup that way.

If I am being honest, I can probably sell the Roland V-Drums 15k that I only use sporadically for fun, not for performance. Maybe the Gibson R4. Its a superb guitar, but for recording what I do, unnecessary to my setup. I mostly got in on a whim & decent price. I got the synth out of curiosity, never having owned one, to learn a bit about sound synthesis. The UA6176 was more to have the fast compressor for the vocal chain. As a whole unit, it's redundant to my gear, but if my other gear fails, it can takeover wholesale while the other stuff is getting fixed. Here I am, solving problems that don't exist! But my interest was in having hardware to last decades vs the software I've typically bought for recording these past 15 years with almost no equity to show for it. (why oh why do I still buy UAD2 plugins? I guess I'm an addict and I hate myself for doing it.)

Most of my time this year has been spent transferring old Cassette tapes to digital, doing Ancestry/Genealogy, and digitalizing photo/film collections from various family members to preserve them (and lots of cycling) Not much time spent playing or making music, which I hope to rectify starting this weekend and forward 2020.

FX/Pedals:

MonkeyMan pedal

Oh no ? I was talking to Monkey_Man just recently. And now he became a stomp pedal? ? Nicky, are you ok? ?

Nicky, I'll ask for your cut as well. LOL

Dayum.

I bet I thought of it long before they did; I've been Monkey Man for 19 years.

And now the year 2019 is closing soon. Only a couple of days left. Did I buy anything? Well some good profile packs. The only software I bought was soothe. A must plugin for getting rid of harsh frequencies no matter if it's vocals, cymbals or guitars. But a plugin that need to be used sparingly for best results. Updated Cubase from 9.5 to 10.5. Bought the upgrade for 50% during summer so it was a long wait. Didn't buy any new or used guitar but sold two. I will probably buy another guitar in the year 2020.
