RGAS - Rapid Gear Aquisition Syndrome

[00DJC]

Great thread

Since Dec 10 ive purchased:

Behringer DDM4000

Kam KCD 450 USB CDJ's (X2!!)

Kontrol X1

Kontrol X1 Bag

Marantz PM6003 Amplifier

2 X Monitor Audio BX2 Speakers (these were worth every penny)

Sennheiser HD201 Headphones

MacBook Pro Core I7 (Early 2011 Model)

Traktor Scratch pro 2 - Full package with the Audio 10

and... ive got countless paychecks lined up for further gear, such as

Selling my mixer and decks and getting a DJM900 Nexus + 2 CDJ 900 (or maybe 850's).

I need help.

Hmm brief summary of my DJing purchases...

Skullcandy SK Pro (not using anymore though they're a good backup pair... I bought them for listening really) (150)
VCI 100 (plain silver... bought black knobs later) (400+ 40)
Traktor Pro Upgrade (80)
Midi Fighter (MK-1 yeahhhhh) (200)
Presonus Firebox (Firewire soundcard) (225)
Ultrasone DJ 1 Pro Headphones (totally amazing) (215)
Custom Midi Fighter (Super awesome!) (450)

All told it's almost $1800 of spending... and I'm a student so I really have no money unless I save like mad... pretty happy with myself

OK I'm in to share my GearSlutz syndrom as well. In the past, us ol' vinyl DJ been used to spend cash on vinyl... now with pools and Beatport (and the likes) it's cheap... so the cash go out for the gear.. at least, for me. I begun using TSP 2 years ago. Since then, this is what I got in addition to my previous CDJ100+DJM600+EFX500+SL1200+CDJ1000MKIII Setup(s)

Here we go:
DJM800
Hercules MP3 e2
Mixtrack
Kontrol S4
2X Denon SC2000
a spare CDJ1000MKIII
RRCDJCD10W (Road Ready coffin for 2x CDJ1000 + DJM800 with wheels & fan)

An extra Audio 8 (Spare)
Audio 4
Audio 2

4X LPD8
4X Kontrol X1
APC 40
APC 20 (AKA the APC 80 combo...)
MPD32
Maschine
Komplete 7
Ableton Suite

2x AKG K181DJ cans
2x SL1210 (for the road only)
1 X RR1200HWS (Road Ready, Stackable SL case)
2x Ortofon Dj + a pair of spare needle
2x extra regular timecode vinyl
2x of each fluo timecode vinyl colour

1X Asus Laptop M51 (first one for TSP)
2X Asus Laptop N61JV (One for the S4 setup, the other for Maschine, Ableton & pals)

4x Vantec 7 port USB HUB

Now waiting for DJTT S4 bag... pretty tempted for a DB4 :eek:

sorry...don't mean to egg you on!

I've been relatively conservative, slowly building up from am x-session pro to a full timecoded setup with two X1s but no "real " decks.
Over the last year I have had very strong feelings towards Xone mixers and only didn't get a 42 cause I'd just sprung for tsp and decks.
The price went up from around 670€ to almost 800 everywhere.


I just checked and it's back to 690.
I have just that amount coming in in the next few days.

Can not... resist... aaagh
