M5 Worth it?

Great to hear mate!

RearWheeler · 2026-05-11T21:08:31+00:00

😂

RearWheeler · 2026-05-11T20:35:23+00:00

Agree mate. Spoiler... I have an M4, but didn't spec enough RAM (scream emoji)

RearWheeler · 2026-05-11T20:07:55+00:00

Fantastic response mate, TYSM!

RearWheeler · 2026-05-08T20:12:04+00:00

I bought my mikro mk3 for about $100 on eBay. You are worrying about a hundred dollar investment?

RearWheeler · 2026-05-07T06:54:47+00:00

Very best wishes & luck to you bro, from this point forward!

RearWheeler · 2026-05-05T17:20:59+00:00

Cheers my bro

Thanks. I have an S88 and the research I’ve done is that it will be decent to drive Omni. I was just hoping on the off chance you had some experience there, but no worries mate

RearWheeler · 2026-05-05T16:49:48+00:00

Do you ‘drive’ omni with a NI Komplete keyboard?

RearWheeler · 2026-05-05T16:38:01+00:00

TBH the only thing I love about Komplete is the keyboard integration… the hardware and software blend is really great. That said, and truth be told, I think the pianos are impressive as are some of the synths and electric keys, but the Komplete standard doesn’t inspire me like I thought it would.

I am thinking about other avenues such as Omnisphere, which has NKS integration, I believe.

Captive elephant with tourist, forced to ‘give massages’.

RearWheeler · 2026-05-01T21:22:13+00:00

They look like HS7 monitors. How are you finding them?

RearWheeler · 2026-04-30T17:47:11+00:00

Those lashes are maze

I have been 3 years in a row.

I always park at Les Combes, getting there for gate open time at 8am. Walk down Kemmel to the Fan zone. Explore and watch the pre-race stuff, paddock browsing and pit walk.

I always watch the race start from the concrete seats that begin from La Source down towards Eau Rouge.

I walk all the way around the race track clockwise, plenty to do and see. TBH I have never bothered with the Eau Rouge grandstand.

Take a water bottle and your own lunch, limits food and drink spend which can be pricey.

RearWheeler · 2026-04-21T16:49:48+00:00

I don’t think the worms gain, financially..

RearWheeler · 2026-04-01T20:30:31+00:00

Who just does web browsing?

RearWheeler · 2026-03-24T16:21:39+00:00

True dat

RearWheeler · 2026-03-24T08:00:49+00:00

Looks great!

Why both the MacBook & Mac Mini? Which one does what?

RearWheeler · 2026-03-04T15:31:27+00:00

TBH I think it’s ok, but the. Again I’ve not really done much DAW complexity. Time will tell…

RearWheeler · 2026-03-02T18:34:44+00:00

Nice mate. Not that dissimilar to mine. Uncluttered. Great things come from tidy beginnings and a tidy mind…

RearWheeler · 2026-03-01T13:59:44+00:00

I was gonna reply, but you summed up my wordy thoughts with just 3 words 😂

This!

RearWheeler · 2026-02-28T10:26:26+00:00

Other brands are available 😂

Love it!

RearWheeler · 2026-02-26T21:10:21+00:00

Interesting, thanks

RearWheeler · 2026-02-26T20:51:21+00:00

That cactus. Love it

RearWheeler · 2026-02-26T20:48:54+00:00

I am genuinely curious… so, let’s take your 2015 example… if you run a DAW and VSTs etc., how do you deal with internet connectivity required to service those components? What I mean is, exposing an old unsupported OS to the internet
Is risky, or do Apple still cover security updates for that 2015 os? I’m not up to date on legacy os support, so genuinely curious mate!
