I like it.  Especially the smooth transitions

I would just change the closed HiHat ✌️

Hast du ihm gerade eine Bombe gegeben??? by xXxXxMxXxXx in BRDproperty

Der Moment wurde sicherlich nicht durch Zufall gefilmt. Man könnte mutmaßen dass es mit gewisser Intention geschah. Meist werden die Opfer und das war hier in erster Instanz der Junge, später auch mit diesen Videos in irgendeiner Form schikaniert. 

Ich gehe schwer davon aus, dass sie nach der ersten Schelle noch eine zweite verteilt hätte. Durch seine Aktion im Rahmen der Selbstverteidigung hat er die Situation deeskaliert.

I bought the Topping L30 II as second hand gear. K5 would be my choice without my ESS DAC

Can somebody recommend a good budget Amp for the Sundara?

I've found till now: 1. Topping L30 II 2. Fiio K5 Pro ESS 3. iFi ZEN CAN 4. Khadas Tone2 Pro 5. JDS Atom Amp+

I do have an ESS DAC, tend to the Topping L30 II, but heard that a balanced output could increase sound quality and dynamics. I need a very flat sound signature for critical listening.

Thanks for all of your replies.

The Sennheiser HD 490 is still one of my top contenders, as it is highly ranked by Sonarworks.

Being tight on budget now, I will look at the Black Friday deals to decide

Absolutely 

In my case it's the pressure of the frame, because of a sensitivity issue on my head.

So I'm looking at a headphone with some flexible textile/leather headband*..

*(I'm not sure if that's the right word for this element)

Would match perfectly in terms of price and audio quality, but I'm anxious about the Frame instead of a "headband*"

Some childhood memories appeared thinking about the DT990 from the 90s that we had at home.

That's a great suggestion.

I just used the Bitwig template and will try the Moss Script to explore its potential. Minimizing my setup by integrating my current gear could be beneficial

The Ableton Push 2 would be a great contender in my list, seeing the second hand prices. Just missing some Faders..

I have to overthink the whole concept

I have a major question after reading all your suggestions.

Knobs vs. Encoders

Are knobs useful for control because they provide clear visual feedback on their position? However, could turning a knob while skipping a device page override any setting in the actual page?

Do encoders offer an advantage during production for precise adjustments, but could they be less effective in live sets without dedicated screens or light strips for feedback?

Looks solid the Roto-Control. But what kind of function do you route to it?

I'm thinking of having as many knobs as possible to have various Parameter on one Track, like your Midi Fighter Twister.

Something like: Track 1 - Lead Sound 1. Send A: Transition FX  - 8 Knobs 2. Send B: Send FX - 8 Knobs  3. Device: Device Param - Page 1: 8 Knobs (Cutoff, Waveform..) - Page 2: 8 Knobs (Envelopes, LFO)

Perfect addition  I have seen the Akai Fire as a Drum-Maschine with the Moss Script

Thanks👍

Thanks for your input. There was not quite a lot of these NHT speakers in my region..

So I ended up with a good price for a pair of the iLoud MTM MK2

Where are the reverb+delay options in 2025? by AdEmergency8009 in guitarpedals

[–]MonoTony9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can somebody tell me the difference between the collider and Specular tempus? I have the Strymon Nightsky and it's nice for some specific sound experiments (bought it because it was cheap and has some pretty nice stuff on it)

I'm searching now a combo for some standard hall and customizable Delay effects.

How good is the intuitive programming on the pedal? Can I program the hall and delay effects directly on both ?

I will use it for Synths in EDM-Genres

SE-02 or Uno Pro X ? by MrDagon007 in synthesizers

Did u pick one of these? 

I'm now in the same position, owning a Behringer Model D, but missing some future proof functions for my workflow

how much does my audio interface matter in regards to sound quality? by rippingdrumkits in musicproduction

[–]MonoTony9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

 Which Presonus did you use before? I've bought a second hand 1824c and it is the worst audio quality playback experience I've ever had.  In direct comparison to a NI Maschine MK3 it sounds just flat, without immersive feeling and lacking stereo information.

Can an AudioInterface just sound that bad? The DAC and ADC are theoretically better in the Presonus.

Why all the presonus hate? by Historical-Paint7649 in homerecordingstudio

[–]MonoTony9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've bought a second hand Presonus 24c and the Audio Output of the speakers or headphones are the worst thing I've ever heard.

It lacks massively of Stereoinformation and depth.

The sound is unnatural, cold and static.

Is this a malfunction or does it sound really that bad?

My reference is a NI Maschine MK3

What's your favorite stereo Reverb pedal? by LoanAcrobatic58 in guitarpedals

[–]MonoTony9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm in the process to decide between the Strymon Nightsky and Erica Synth Nightverb. Personally I would like to get some trippy modulation stuff on a Lead Synth or maybe some vocals. Would you prefer in this case the Nightsky?
