I'm really boring but some more bass trapping. I've still got room left for 2 more GIK acoustic tri-traps.
Other than that maybe upgrade my midi keyboard and get some more UAD plugs?

OH and the benchmark I highly recommend it. When I made the jump from my saffire to it I was unsure how much it would actually benefit the sound but wow, very good and if you hunt 2nd hand not too expensive compared to other DAC's out there.

Anywhere between better cabling for your studio and an SSL desk.

Very boring.
From what I've heard the benchmark seems to be a great investment. what audio interface do you use?

For my monitoring setup it's just running through a benchmark DAC1 connected by an optical cable.
My outboard runs through an RME ADI-2 and my recording in just goes through an input on a saffire le.
What happened to the good ol' days when you just plugged in speakers to a computer eh?

rme with a breakout box, sherman filterbank, akai s6000, emu ultra whatever (maybe soon), a 303 or x0xb0x, tr808 and 909, minimoog voyager, little labs voice of god (if you like my voice peep this piece of gear or the uad-2 plugin), and some of those custom stomp boxes done for korn back in the 90s, a couple uad-2 and a virus-b or c not a ti would do me right, oh and a cs-80

a prophet or a minibrute would be nice.
kinda off topic: I'm looking for a nice notebook (not exactly for production, more for image and editing and to replace my dying desktop) with around 6 or 8 gb for ram, any recommendantions? I found some really nice hp and sonys with 2nd generation i5s but not sure.

I don't know, even though macs are overpriced as fuck, I love mine. It needs almost 0 care and still runs just fine.
