I too have nearly removed the 'PC' from my musical creativity.
Other than midi patch saves & remote control utilities.

I got sick & tired of 'music by mouse' ... endlessly dragging
'virtual' sliders & pan pots.

I much prefer tweaking the real thing. So Cubase SX is now in the bin.

I sequence on a QY700,
Multitrack on an AW4416. (with waves card, 40GB HDD & 8 additional inputs)

2x Zoom RFX-2000 for insert effects.

T8 8x midi splitter
M8 8x midi merger

I create using:

E-MU XK-6 (with 4x expansion roms)
E-MU Proteus 2000
E-MU ESI32 Sampler with calamari, full ram & OS 3
Yamaha AN1X
Novation Nova - 16 voice

I'm contemplating getting either a Micro Q or the Blofeld - mind you
the fact that they didn't put a midi out on the Blo, is Stupid.

Fun fun fun! :-)
