I'm not sure if many of you have beefed up systems, but what equipment do you use to produce your arrangements?

I'll post my list of stuff later as it's quite extensive. o.o;

I'm not a great hardware guy, so I mostly use software. Currently I use Finale 2008b, FL Studio 8 XXL Producer Edition, a Yamaha PSR-275 keyboard, and a horrible onboard soundcard. I've purchased a fancy new RODE NT-55 mic, but I don't even want to try and use it until I fix up one of my rooms for recording, and get a good enough preamp to go with the mic.


Blobbery.

I'm a 14 year old with no money that I can call my own. Lol. So all I have is Finale Notepad 2008. I'll probably get the full version by the end of the school year.

I also have a Yahama Clavinova keyboard, and another Yamaha keyboard that I don't know the name of.

I have Sibelius 5 - Quite Good, but that's it. If I want to record something, my school has a recording studio.

I'm mostly software too - I have a midi keyboard, but I only use it for figuring out melodies and chords.
I also have a Yamaha BC-3 that I love, I just don't use as much as I probably should.
