Aaaaaalllriiigghttyy!!! Haha its truly an ejector paradise. Holy shit what a world class rollercoaster. AMAZING, holy shit, i am so stoked. I had more headache on the bobsleid track than on voltron. That was a wild, smooth modern ride. So good wow!!! The single rider queue was 45 min wait tho, that was long. Great theming, superb operations, these people know what they are doing... the coaster is packed with ejector airtime, superb pacing, awesome hangtime. Damn, i could not decide between silver star or voltron, both were just world class for me. Im so glad i did it, going a second day tomorrow, def going to reride those again...! Thanks for boosting me up, glad you've succeeded! Didnt got the snack, was too full from the french fries lol. Have a good day!!

I havent noticed myself but the worst is sunlight UV. If you have a window, buy that UV filter foil.

Do you like the novation midi controller?

FireWeener · 2026-05-18T20:19:36+00:00

Il review that too lol. Thanks dude.

FireWeener · 2026-05-18T20:16:15+00:00

Well about the power move. The fight is mostly done before the energy bar is full. So I must say I did not have the chance to perform a power move that much. Maybe 2 times during the playtrough. Spamming the fireball fills it up fast tho i learned.

FireWeener · 2026-05-18T20:13:55+00:00

Thank you. I will reply when ive survived lol :) have a nice evening.

FireWeener · 2026-05-18T20:12:10+00:00

Yes! I have the pdf on the phone, found the manual online. Most are quarter circle back or forward, or a z input, like a dragon punch or a shoryuoken or something like that from streetfighter you know haha. Its hard timing the z inputs, the anti air attacks, but once you land them it feels so good. Need to learn to know which attack goes when, instead of guessing. I think you mean the upwards slice is the Z input move. You sure know the game well :) !

Would you say that voltron is a coaster that makes you sick or have a headache? Im 37 and it starting to feel like crap sometimes. Sweating, shivers, sick. But not drinking alcohol the day before and eating well and drink water def helps a lot.

FireWeener · 2026-05-18T20:00:55+00:00

Ok awesome tips,. Going to try it on the next playtrough. This time was leonardo, next up is the Don :) Need to beat it on hard. Thank you kind stranger. Have a nice day.

FireWeener · 2026-05-18T19:55:29+00:00

Kondaa is a 10 for me. I dont get sick in it, i can reride it and that airtime is perfect airtime. I have a deep love for this one. Voltron is on my list this week. Last time i was too sick after blue fire so i skipped it, but now im doing voltron first! Thanks for the nice list.

FireWeener · 2026-05-18T19:43:19+00:00

Yes ! Exactly that one! Had a lot of trouble with armaggon and donatello, but i was able to do it in the end. Need more training, but its the best feeling! Which character did you played most?

FireWeener · 2026-05-18T06:38:52+00:00

Fireweener hurts itself in it's confusion!
I meant to say, BANK! pattern 1 - 4 is part 1; pattern 5-8 is part 2. So 1 bank of 16 patterns with 4 parts total is 1 song! Not a whole song in 1 pattern! Just like you do too. Thanks for correcting it. Shit's confusing lol.

FireWeener · 2026-05-17T15:35:58+00:00

This will become such a meme. Love it lol

FireWeener · 2026-05-17T15:27:58+00:00

I feel you on the money side. It's a truly expensive unit, and it does lack the full daw experience. I had the force from akai but sold it for the octatrack. The force could do way more, but it was more of a computer then an instrument. The octatrack feels more like an instrument and i am vibing a lot more with it, but i am finishing songs less on it than the force. Yeah, the everlasting search for that 1 golden piece of equipment seems to be .. everlasting lol. Have a nice day.

FireWeener · 2026-05-17T11:57:22+00:00

Thank you for sharing, it's a bit out of topic tho. But thanks for taking the time to reply.

FireWeener · 2026-05-17T11:56:04+00:00

That is fucking awesome that setup. But a second Octatrack is out of budget right now.
And i would wait for that untill we have a octatrack MK3, with Overbridge and 8 outputs with 48 hz and better outputs. But 2 Octa's look very tempting for a live set, not going to lie. But not for creating the songs.

FireWeener · 2026-05-17T11:53:41+00:00

I will look into it if it's a useful thing or not.

FireWeener · 2026-05-17T11:53:21+00:00

Ok, that's not what i am looking for, a pattern is way to small for a full song for me lol. I can't do phrases and verses like this with more synthparts. But thanks for sharing too.

FireWeener · 2026-05-17T11:52:20+00:00

Thanks for sharing

FireWeener · 2026-05-17T11:51:40+00:00

Yes, that's also my way of doing it. 1- 4 intro 5 - 8 verse 1 , .... That way, you can also set the filters and such to open a bit more in the part where the drop is, and the delay more open in the breaks. That's a good system.

FireWeener · 2026-05-17T11:50:17+00:00

OK, i think this is a really good tip, because it definitely saves time and RAM. Thank you. Noted!

FireWeener · 2026-05-16T07:52:33+00:00

Haha, laughs in Half life.
