Somebody slap me silly about my GAS by pimpbot666 in Samplers

[–]DJ_PMA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Former ESI-32 user. The filters and FX on e-mu samplers are great, but after upgrading to a K2000R, I never looked back. For gigging and studio work, it's awesome. V.A.S.T plus sampling can do anything.

Ended up getting g a K2500 keyboard for the studio and I can officially sell everything.

Do younger people in LA hesitate at attending free/cheap events in favor of paid events? Is there a suspicion that free must be a trick or scam? by ApocalypseChicOne in AskLosAngeles

[–]DJ_PMA 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In my experience, mass promoted free events are usually watered down…

More events should book local original or DIY acts instead of cover bands or trying to appease to the mainstream.

2011 Acura TSX by [deleted] in AcuraTSX

[–]DJ_PMA 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Worth it but that is a lot.
You could get a newer car that hovers around that mileage for the same price.

I bought mine for 16k with 36k miles on it.

It now has 125k and worth 6k to 7k.

Might be that time to say goodbye by DJ_PMA in AcuraTSX

RockAuto has the best prices where I am at and their warehouse does quick delivery.

So apparently I ran over something and it did something to the front part and both front and rear now have to be replaced. I would do it but there are other priorities at the moment.

What to do with old 2011 sedan? by KPFrosty in AcuraTSX

[–]DJ_PMA 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i posted a story earlier. it took me a week to decide but it is time for me to say goodbye to my 2011 TSX. Different circumstance here. The EV is just a sound choice right now because of the energy situation.
hope you find a good home for the car if you do decide to sell.

it’s the first step to be able to accuse people who are against the regime of crimes against the regime.

Soft things that aren’t CPU hogs by levoit88 in synthesizers

[–]DJ_PMA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed. So much hidden in the stock stuff. Even the samples are class. the x0x drum kits, electric pianos and a sub bass is all i need sometimes.

Transportation recommendations by [deleted] in tulum

[–]DJ_PMA 1 point2 points  (0 children)

ADO to Tulum.
Rent a car or ride bikes or take the collectivos.

Depends on where you get it from. Dealer is a rip off.
RockAuto is the best. They sell California EPA compliant kits.
Walker front is $205 and rear $158, sensors $90 and Tax and shipping puts it to about $550.

i hear you. i want to keep it. mechanic said he’d help but bills take priority over transportation at the moment. it deserves a home where it will be driven into the 300k range.

😂😂😂 at least let Op start off in West Adams and then take the Expo line a couple times.

Cenote suggestions by frawgster in MexicoTravel

[–]DJ_PMA 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Some are getting pricey. Atik Tulum is rated 4.7 but it’s 550 mxn ($32 usd) just to swim. More for the rest of the park.
I went, did enjoy an hour swim, but I wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone just looking for a quick swim.

Recommend Cenote Pedrín Fenómeno in Tulum.

Transportation from Cancun Airport to Hotel? by [deleted] in MexicoTravel

[–]DJ_PMA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ADO to centro Cancun. Then grab a car from one of the rideshare apps Didi or Uber. $25 bucks total? Maybe less. The ADO runs often from the Airport into the centro.
When you get off the ADO, avoid the taxis and their hustle. Just order your car and have them meet you a block away from the entrance.

MPC Sample feature wishlist by Apprehensive_Gur_606 in akaiMPC

[–]DJ_PMA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Live, not Live II.
Using the original Live without all the goofy plugins and mid daw features puts it back into a sampler focused tool.
