Advice on Purchase please

Hi All..

I needed your advice on a an upgrade that ill be making at the small complex that i run. Been an enthusiastic reader behind the scenes and really respect some of the contributors here..

My currrent setup includes:

Recording: PT HD3 + 192 i/o + Apogee Rosetta 48k

Monitors: ADAM S3-A

Outboard:

Alan Smart C2
Thermionic Culture Phoenix
Thermionic Culture Vulture
Lexison PCM91
Focusrite ISA430 Mk1
Focusrite Voicemaster

Mics:

M149
TLM103
S1000

The music i record is mainly oriented around synths but occasionally i record vocals and guitar...Ive got about 13k and Im planning on adding the following to this setup and was wondering if anyone had advice on changing anything from below:

EQ: Massive Pssive [Mainly for 2bus use]
Compressor: STC-8 [2-bus]
Reverb: Reverb 4000
Pre: Chandler TG2

What do u guys think of the additions ? Would u spend it differently ??

TIA...

Are you happy with control room & live area accoustics?

Perhaps a Benchmark DAC -1 for playback / monitoring DA..

An extra 8 PTHD DA outputs and an external analog summing device?
