My insane dream would be to have a rack of 16 Roland MKS-900s. (One for each MIDI channel.) But for the time being I have just one, and it's a wonderful box though prices on them now are just stupid.

Half-rack Boss VF-1 on the effects bus of the main mixer. Haven't done much of anything with it in a while though.

Amazing setup Cloud!!! A few details caught my attention:

- The NEC and Dell CRTs are something to die for;
- I see at least 6 MT-32's, i imagine an assortment of Old and New models with different ROMs / mods?
- The assortment of CM modules neatly organized in the lower shelf;
- You have the Microprose adventure game trifecta in boxes!!
- (I assume) you love (like i do) Microprose; (they are the dual-OPL2 masters afterall) (You need a boxed copy of Fleet Defender my fave Microprose game! 😀 )
- The assortment of GM gear, namely the essential Yamaha and Roland modules (XG rulesssssss);
- A beautiful Apple II setup;
- Is that a Tandy RLX?
- The MIDI General has a Roland/Edirol SC8850 on top?
- The Roland MIDI pedalboard with 2 expression pedals is neat, which model is it?

Final thought, i wanna pack my stuff travel to your place ,nerd out at that room, set up my guitar, and have a jam session! 😀

EDIT: got so mesmerized with Cloudschatze's setup that i even replied to the OP. I just use a Behringher 1202 mixer for my main DOS PC. No EQ no FX.

Bloody hell, that's a *nice* setup. I knew you had some nice gear from glimpses in other photos, but these wide shots really tell the whole story. 😲

Half-rack units are an interesting idea. I suppose then it would be possible to include 2 half-rack units, plus the mixer. I'll have to give that some consideration.

I'd somehow never even seen the MKS-900 before. Didn't know something like that even existed. 16 of them running in tandem would be kinda nuts, but cool. 😁
