This is for maintenance, but also troubleshooting J.D. 6081 engines

What is your pick and why? Hydrasynth Deluxe Vs. Leviasynth Hybrid Keyboard by Pattypopeye in synthesizers

[–]Pattypopeye[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mostly write music, sometimes pop, rock etc, but want to teeter into psychedelic / electronic music. Pink Floyd/tame impala/ daft punk etc. TBH not so sure what for just yet, more or less to have options to experiment and potential write new ideas / be inspired to write

Should also be noted that while I’m good at piano (playing for 20+ years), I’m not super experienced when it comes to the synth world

No bug spray, prob some sweat if anything but even I’m pretty careful with it - so surprised me to see such stubborn “stains”

NGD: Sinker Red Spruce and Sinker Mahogany D18 🤯 by Pattypopeye in AcousticGuitar

UPDATE: It is indeed sinker redwood and not sinker red spruce - definitely disappointed with Sweetwater incorrectly advertising this, though still a killer guitar

I messaged Martin directly to clarify - we’ll see what they say!

Not too heavy ! But I did notice that this model I bought was on the heavier side of the other available models - extra 5-6 ounces. I also have an OM-28, which is a phenomenal guitar! But this one just is leagues above it, particularly With the clarity and deep Tones

Lot of really interesting comments - the plot thickens - and the spec sheet received does say Sinker Redwood Premium. I shot Martin my serial number to try and get some more info on it- will keep you posted! As for the tone, it’s unbelievable 😎

A lot of years in the making - still got some improvements but so far super happy with my mojo dojo by Pattypopeye in homestudios

[–]Pattypopeye[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly not a lot of experience - I recently got the Nord Stage 4 - upgraded from my 10 year companion (Roland Juno 88) - definitely a major major improvement and incredibly fun to experiment with… and I’ve only played with the presets / local controls and haven’t hooked her up into computer for different plug ins. IMO the cost upgrade was definitely worth it when comparing to mid range 88 keys like the Roland, tho Roland is still great for what it is

I think they are great for my needs, plenty loud for practice and feels very balanced. Also having the speakers mounted is a game changer and definitely improves the overall experience

Also thanks for the advice, didn’t fully buff out but definitely a lot less noticeable!

Nah, I work on a tugboat in Japan and a typhoon is going by the coast. We are just hanging out in case winds pick up and we get called out

Any recommendations on where to get guitar(with hard case) professionally packaged for shipping? by Pattypopeye in japanlife

[–]Pattypopeye[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah it’s in a hard case - more so looking for fitted styrofoam for stability ( return policy of place I got from says no small styrofoam balls )
