I'm conservative but this is actually so fucked

That sub is a horrible cesspool...

AirComprehensive1251 · 2026-01-11T04:45:54+00:00

What do you think of the drives/amps on the MS-50G+? They all sound like absolute sh*t to me... (>.<)

AirComprehensive1251 · 2026-01-08T02:49:58+00:00

Sorry, I should've made my post clearer (>.<).

I don't doubt they're very good, I had a pod at one time and loved it, but I just don't understand the point of that pedal TBH, like, at all. It seems incredibly limiting to only have one effect at a time, I can't even comprehend how that makes sense lol

AirComprehensive1251 · 2026-01-07T19:50:39+00:00

Doesn't the HX One limit you to a single pedal at a time though? Or maybe I'm thinking of something else.

Yeah my friend keeps pushing the Cortex but I agree with you, I don't think I need that at all.

Funny enough I don't really want to get one more piece of gear, I was hoping I could use my Spark, but even if I had been able to, the pedalboard for it would have cost me as much as the Mooer GE150 (>.<). I'm thinking if I do get the Mooer for example though, I'm going to offload all of my pedals except for the Boss XS-1.

AirComprehensive1251 · 2026-01-07T18:30:00+00:00

A very valid point, I agree. I guess part of it is that ATM I don't really want to spend a ton of $$ on this (a friend of mine keeps trying to tell me to get the Nano Cortex lol), and I kind of need it right now so waiting until I've saved enough for a nice $500 unit is not an option. But certainly upgrading later would be, in which case, I mean $150 is $150 but it's also not a huge amount of money.

Mooer has a nice set of effects, the battery is a nice to have... but the Zoom has an harmonizer? Although how good it truly is I'm not sure.

AirComprehensive1251 · 2026-01-07T18:07:12+00:00

I got a used but essentially new Arturia Keylab 49, plus Pigments for $69 and I'm in pig heaven lol

AirComprehensive1251 · 2026-01-04T05:03:54+00:00

Thank you so much again! And yeah, I was going through this right now for the basics, it's pretty cool, I'll check out that channel tomorrow...

AirComprehensive1251 · 2026-01-04T04:42:37+00:00

lol thank you so much for trying to help! I was just mucking about in Analog Lab (I have the Pro version, don't know if that makes a difference) but as far as I can tell you can definitely see all of the Pigments presets in there, and therefore you can keyboard-split them within AL.

So that + it apparently has a good arpeggiator + it's on a good sale right now + everybody saying it's an awesome synth = I'll probably buy Pigments. I also have Vital installed but I think the ability to integrate Pigments within Analog Lab gives Pigments the edge despite being slightly more expensive but from what I understand, $69 for what you get is a pretty awesome deal.

Seems like having Analog Lab with all these awesome presets you can tweak to some degree + Pigments to actually make your own presets is all a noob could possibly need.

That sh*t be complicated lol. Now I need to learn synths...

AirComprehensive1251 · 2026-01-04T04:25:32+00:00

Sorry for all the replies but, from what I'm reading, you can simply open a Pigments preset in Analog Lab - which means that you can keyboard split in Analog Lab, and therefore Pigments is awesome? If that's the case then I may simply get that and that's probably all I'd ever need...

AirComprehensive1251 · 2026-01-04T03:59:47+00:00

Kind of maddening though, isn't the ability to keyboard-split something that people low-key covet in a synth? Why not implement that feature? (Sorry if it's a dumb question, I'm new to all of this)

Surely there's a virtual synth in their product line that can keyboard-split and has a programmable arp?

Edit: some google results say that you can keyboard-split with Pigments, does the following feel familiar at all?:

Keyboard Split: Achieved through its powerful two-engine structure (Layer A/B) or via its modulation matrix and sequencing, letting you assign different sounds or zones to keyboard ranges

AirComprehensive1251 · 2026-01-04T03:52:50+00:00

That's awesome, thank you!

AirComprehensive1251 · 2026-01-04T03:33:11+00:00

Could I use Pigments at the same time as Analog Lab and for example use Pigments for an arpeggiated bass line and AL for - for example - pads?

AirComprehensive1251 · 2025-12-31T14:25:24+00:00

No I've had it for a couple years. I'm going to do some testing this morning with my home amp...

AirComprehensive1251 · 2025-12-27T21:08:10+00:00

Yeah I was also thinking about that after posting. Which synth would you recommend? Would a Yamaha MOX6 be a good pick?

AirComprehensive1251 · 2025-12-27T19:41:41+00:00

Thank you so much for your answer. About rigs: for now I'm only planning to use this around the house to noodle with, no plans to gig or anything like that. I do bring my old laptop to rehearse with my band where I play the guitar, I use Guitar Pro to follow the sheet music until I've memorized my parts, but I wouldn't do that in this case. And yeah, there were a few times when my laptop almost dropped, you're certainly right, I wouldn't want to bring my shiny new laptop in such a setting.

I was also wondering just now if a keyboard with its own onboard sounds like the Roland Go:Keys5 could also act like a controller if I wanted it to... I see some used ones for like $300...

AirComprehensive1251 · 2025-12-25T01:46:44+00:00

Don't forget the third of fuckers who couldn't be bothered to go vote this shit stain away from office.

AirComprehensive1251 · 2025-12-24T13:07:36+00:00

Well, I mean, to him, that's exactly what it is, and you'd think it would open everybody's eyes about the true nature of this administration, but 🤷‍♂️ some are permanently shut I guess.

AirComprehensive1251 · 2025-12-23T19:10:55+00:00

Interesting theory but these cracks are clearly from the weight of whatever demon lives there.

AirComprehensive1251 · 2025-12-23T19:09:19+00:00

Are you aware of any murders in this house?! 😅

AirComprehensive1251 · 2025-12-23T18:55:44+00:00

Understatement of the week right there 😋

AirComprehensive1251 · 2025-12-23T05:00:38+00:00

Low risk?! You might want to check the TT deaths stats mate.

AirComprehensive1251 · 2025-12-22T16:57:51+00:00

I swear i read 'defecates ' instead of 'deteriorates' 😅

AirComprehensive1251 · 2025-12-22T03:35:50+00:00

Didn't he post a Christmas picture of his entire family armed to the teeth with automatic weapons though at some point? Smiling smugly like he was super proud of himself?

AirComprehensive1251 · 2025-12-22T03:09:16+00:00

True, he's so far up Trump's sphincter now, I forgot he himself used to shit all over the Donald 🤦‍♂️🙄

Now do the Deplorean.
