On my side, i still don't know what i am gonna do with my LP minis : a bit too small and i m not fond of the feeling of the pads. I may trade them for regular LPs.
Also a eurorack 4ms VCAMatrix : i like the concept but it doesn't fit my workflow.

Nebula with various eqs/comps. The 'workflow' just isn't for me.

Windows laptop. It was reasonably priced, Live crashed a lot. Numerous problems getting various things to work, some of which never worked. Got a Macbook Pro, zero crashes , zero problems with anything.

M-Audio Axiom Air Mini 32

I wanted to use the pads to trigger live, but unfortunately, they double trigger. Totally useless

Akai MPD 24: I got it with high expectations but it was too big and bulky to use live.

OK, will bear that in mind. I replaced it with an AKAI LD8, less money, no problems, wonderful bit of kit :)
