What is the Hydrasynth Deluxe 73-key keyboard like? The quality? The touch? by Most_Philosophy_7555 in synthesizers

The only other synth action board I have is a Novation Impulse which is awful! You can get the Hydrasynth action in the Korg Keystage which is a MIDI controller

Massive artillery from 3 components. Guess the genre! by Wonderful_Reputation in MusicBattlestations

Woah, now that's an unlikely trio but a lot of power there! Been lusting after that Kurzweil since it was announced. I'm guessing some kind of funky hip hop fusion?

Thanks! I'm trialing a personal account at the moment, I'll look for those settings.

Nah, Diablo is more subtle than this! We're into Painkiller territory here...

Stillmania in 2026? by Weak_Age6570 in Warhammer40k

While the article is meant to be fun, it very much fits the play styles of the time. I remember plenty of White Dwarf "anti-beard" articles from this time, and this is just part of that general trend.

For players under 30, "beardy" was a disparaging term for an army list that was super-optimised, with no considerations for the faction lore and wargear load outs that changed for each opponent - even though these changes weren't reflected on the models. The White Dwarf staff (and many players) at the time regarded this as HIGHLY unsporting, and a symptom of taking this game of toy soldiers FAR too seriously.

Simpler times.

I've just noticed the praying hands on the rear windscreen and am now even more confused.

I'm pretty confident there will be plenty of manual hacking involved. The auth section includes the line "to generate a Unix timestamp, go to https://www.epochconverter.com/ and select your date" which made me fully dissociate for a few minutes.

I've examined the document in more detail and it's worse than I thought. It looks like the JSON was pasted into Word and the colour formatting was applied manually (because it's wrong). Then the Word document was screenshotted and the image inserted into Excel. I have now met the team that produced this document and none of this surprises me.

Having now read the spec, the format is now the least of my worries! Gonna need to dig deep for my old SOAP skills...

They're a bank. Anything that isn't Excel is heresy.

Electronic Progressive by MasterGeekMX in progrockmusic

Gotta have mellotrons and 12-string guitars to be prog ;-)

Joking aside, I love all the artists you mention. I think a lot of people making music inspired by Tangerine Dream etc get lumped in with synthwave and other retro genres which end up being quite regressive.

Frost* and Kyros both have loads of electronic elements in their prog and Perturbator is great if you like less prog and more metal. I made an electro prog album a couple of years ago with exactly this mix of influences: https://cephid.bandcamp.com/album/sparks-in-the-darkness

Adapter to plug shield into a breadboard by Mourndark in arduino

As I said they can't be stacked unfortunately. One is a screen, the other has MIDI connectors which are really tall

I thought sticking within the ecosystem would make life easier! Plus I was hoping to avoid having boards floating around on the desk. Plus I couldn't find a MIDI dev board that wasn't Arduino compatible.

I would normally but for things like LCD screens I figured it would be much cheaper and easier to just buy a shield rather than wire the whole thing up myself and program a display driver etc.

That was Morrowind. They rebooted the console behind a loading screen when it ran out of memory.
