My mics haven't change much...still have the 57s, Audix drum mics, PR30, and some Lewitt LDCs. But the core of the rig has changed!! This monitor, first of all, is absolutely bonkers and let's you see a million tracks. My Adam A7X monitors have been with me for 7 years, now. They are great. I will keep them until they break, and most likely get another pair. The heart of the rig, though, is the RME Fireface 802. What an upgrade this thing was for me!! The Audient was a great interface, but this is a completely different beast. Insane capabilities that I didn't even think I would care about with respect to routing and mixing. Still got that Behringer 8 channel strip, though. Midas designed preamps in it are great!

I like 5150s. The rest of you bullshit amps can get fucked.

You’ve all got nice spaces so I’ll counter with my poverty setup. It’s where I record all my songs, listen to records and get high and play video games. Total budget set up , laptop is 6 years old running Cubase 13 with an audiobox interface. Amps record with captor , drums and anything else midi is with an old ass radio shack keyboard, my mics are all in the locker when not in use. The drums will probably go and will be replaced with an electronic set since I never use it and it’s just taking up space in the corner stacked up next to most of my guitars.
