If you were rich and had a big ass basement to put a party room in, what would you equip the DJ/Band area with?

Besides a kickin PA with ample microphones, of course. Like, what gadgets and gear would you have on hand? This question was spawned from a night of playing with my Korg Electribe ES1 Sampler, EA1 Analog Modeling Sequencer and MS2000 Analog Modeling Synth. Had I a big hous, lots of cash, and people to entertain, I'd have all of these, plus a pair of turntables and a trap kit and a few guitars and basses and keyboards (a Hammond B-3, if I had the cash) laying around for impromtu jam sessions and/or for a DJ (who knows his way around loop-based instruments) to kick out the party beats. What gear would you have laying around to rock the party?

Also, I'd have a Yamaha RS7000, I've never played with one, but I've seen what Millar can do on it and it definetely could rock a party.

a harmonica, a couple acoustic guitars, and a snare drum with brushes.

as far as dj gear, probably a pair of technics, a couple cd players, a pioneer mixer, and a pair of mackie SRM450's on stands, and a lot of couches.

Yeah, couches need not be mentioned, cause I know that if I had a "cribs" pad, the basement would already have ample ass-space, as well as dance space, and a fully stock absinth/hash bar with at least 12 brews on tap. But the acoustic slant is not one I had thought of. Which reminds me, add a doghouse bass and acoustic/electric bass to the set up. And one of those bad-ass Musicman Stingrays. Which are oh.. so sweet.

Shoot me an email if you ever get rich, I want to party at your place.

Don't worry man, if I get rich, it's on like Donkey Kong, because, fuck, I can't show off the stuff I have now enough as is. I'm a married guy, so instead of trying to impress girls with suave, I try to impress people in general with musical gear, which bores all of my non-musician friends to death, because they can count on a demo of everything I have after I've had 3 beers anyhow.

it'd have to be a nexo pa. speakers are small and heavy and sound so natural. whatever you plug into them will sound better than you could have imagined.
