How did you do on your 17 goals? What are your goals in 2018?

I want to be cool in 2018, so looking to get Knobs-approved board.

Knobs is mainstream. Real hype lies in UC.

Joking aside, all purple board would be awesome.

My 2018 Music goal is to put out an ep and play some local shows, so the gear goals are recording equipment and anything necessary to make the live show work like a louder amp.

I could prolly do that now but I've lived over a year with no electricity and my pedlols are just sitting...

My top three pedals to try and add to the pile in 2018 are, in reverse order

3) EQD Arpanoid 2) EQD Data Corrupter 1) Count To Five #2.
There are another 33 on my wishlist, but the last pedal to arrive here wasn't on it, so it's also possible that my 2019 top three will be the same as above and I'll have bought 10 pedals not on the list.
Last night I foolishly strayed from the path into the wonderful world of UC and Simon The Magpie's self-built noise making pedals, so as well as buying off the shelf pedals I'd like to have a go at making something along the lines of the Scrap Yard and the Door Stop pedals.
I don't have the knowledge to do any circuit bending, but I can drill holes and bolt things together without too much drama

Sell some stuff so I can afford a nice cab for my newly acquired OR15, would also love to get a real tape echo machine like an RE-201 ... a Sunn head would be cool too (still pissed I missed one near me)... Also craving for a Gibson SG ....
Damnit! I'm never gonna achieve these goals this year!

I want to find a nice reverb pedal or get a Fender Princeton. And maybe a harmonic tremolo. Spend more time listening to the sound coming out of the speaker, less time looking at the pedals/guitars/gear. Start recording music.

video synth. That was my goal last year, but goddammit, it’s gonna happen this year. Especially where the release of the LZX Vidiot, has essentially halved the startup cost for video synthesis.

My goals is to not buy any gear in 2018 and really get to know what I do have. Got way too much cool shit this year.
