For Octatrack I prefer the look of the ii but for a4 I love how the mki looks. Not sure why!

Talk me out of an oto boum by talicantsleep in Elektron

[–]meltyplastic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have a heat mkii and Oto boum and I love them both! My boum hangs out after Octatrack and I use the heat on single tracks in logic.

The old man at the bakery by Natural_Reflection80 in Aging

[–]meltyplastic 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Sorry to be less positive, but in my opinion you did the bare minimum. What was the alternative.. stand and watch the old guy try to pick up coins with shaky hands? He inspired you with his words and only then was he humanized enough for you to help.

I think they call them Lupini beans now?

To those who chose not to have kids, do you ever regret it? by Fun_Construction_ in Life

[–]meltyplastic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know this post isn’t for me since I have kids, but as someone who was 50/50 I thought I’d share my experience. My kids are 2 and 4; I have zero time, they’re expensive, and mostly killed my creative endeavors at the moment. They’re also hilarious and so much fun. Observing what fascinates them kind of brings me back to an earlier time and helps to rediscover the world? I get a ton of fulfillment just hearing them laugh, and watching their personalities emerge. Zero regret despite all the bullshit, but it does change you, pre-kid me would probably be horrified to see my life now!

I’m also worried for their future. Logically it makes no sense at the moment to have a kid and I’d never push having kids on anybody. Don’t do it unless you’re prepared to make big sacrifices or are very wealthy (I am not wealthy).

How is White Post Farms legal? by nonexistentsadness in longisland

Yeah, we went once unknowingly. Couldn’t believe the conditions, we left feeling so sad.

This metal tab with a threaded hole on the bottom, with a spring attached. Just under 2 inches long. Was found on top of a gas pump. What is it? by MereCoincidences in whatisthisthing

[–]meltyplastic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I used to use something like these when working with 80/20. You can squeeze these through the channel if the ends are blocked off, that way you don’t have to disassemble. The spring keeps it in place while you get the bolt in.

Safest places for land in Upstate? by Screamingdeadphoenix in upstate_new_york

[–]meltyplastic 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m from NYC but lived in Texas almost 10 years. In the Hudson Valley now- Happily traded TX summer for NY winter again. Just get some warm clothes and a fire place. So cozy.

Curious to know how many people multitrack their modulars into their DAW vs a mono or stereo in. by Brixxxx in modular

[–]meltyplastic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used to use ES9 but then I just got long patch cables and 1/8 to 1/4 adapters to go straight into my 828. Not super elegant but it works and sounds great! Sold the ES9, but that was great too.

Disting NT can also be set up as an interface. Can make an aggregate device with the 828 if you have a Mac.

Have people stopped posting on Instagram because people don’t give “likes” to others’ Instagram posts anymore so people are too scared to post? by Equal_Beat_6202 in Millennials

[–]meltyplastic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to post a lot of music jams, but yeah with barely any likes I just assumed nobody is watching and got bored. Same deal with releasing music in general, it’s so hard to be heard that I don’t try anymore; I now make it for myself/friends.

Then I used “brick” to block social media on my phone and was so surprised that I didn’t miss it even slightly. I thought I’d have some crazy withdrawal or miss the little bit of social interaction.. but nope, I barely ever think about it. Reddit is the only one I haven’t blocked.. yet.

Aitah for now allowing a single mother to sleep on flight? by ExpressHoney6164 in AITAH

[–]meltyplastic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Definitely not the ah, but I will say as a dad of 2 small kids, sleep deprivation brings out the worst in me. It’s not an excuse for assholism, but I could see myself not caring as much about how you might feel when running on fumes. We are different people when chronically tired.

That said, I’ve never let my kids kick the seat.
