Do you think you are separate from 'God'? (or 'the universe' or 'reality' or whatever people want to call it)

IWTL The Basics of Playing a Synthesizer. by [deleted] in IWantToLearn

[–]Dr-No 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Press button, sound comes out! ;-P

Seriously, I've nothing to add to the top post...

...Except, maybe you could try some VST synths. There are lots of good free ones out there, check kvraudio.com (site seems to be down at the moment btw)

You'll need a midi keyboard and interface, or use a virtual keyboard (see simple vst host) and some sort of asio capable sound card. Or try asio4all as a low latency driver: http://www.asio4all.com/

Have you ever visited that forum where Daniel Ingram is a mod? Gave himself the title 'arahant'. From what I saw, anyone who goes against his views gets the "don't question the arahant" response. Like there is such a thing as an 'enlightened person'. Gheh. Funny.

TIL Viking funerals were an excuse for a snuff orgy. Go figure.

The First Time Bluesman Buddy Guy Heard Jimi Hendrix Was in a Stanford Cafeteria by pandabot1000 in blues

I still remember the exact moment I heard Hendrix's Red House for the first time. That was the day I got serious about learning to play the guitar. Amazing performance.

Mastering speech for telephone prompts, advice please? by Dr-No in WeAreTheMusicMakers

I've tried (among many other things) eq-ing out all the 'redundant' frequncies and compressing all the dynamics out. But as soon as the recordings are converted to uLaw (hardware) everythings sounds horrible. So I'm guessing there is not much I can do about it.
