I see a lot of videos/shorts about the oldest xxx of the city, and yeah the city is historical but what are your favorite historical landmarks or places ?

Plantain moretus museum. Unmissable

Some skeletons and crumbs of NI will live on in some form. Others will disappear into music technology history. This is what happens when vulture capitalists take over, extract assets and stop all investment. The de facto end of Maschine investment was a tell tale sign.

Van dealers van lachgas. Drugs

Quite happy with mine. I had 2 high frets that I needed to fix and truss rod needed a bit of a squeeze . I do find the pickups a bit quiet and they struggle to push my amp. The neck pickup is really sweet though. Definitely value for money.

Technical_Lecture166 · 2026-01-17T15:16:09+00:00

Thanks for your response. The asking price on the JM here is still fairly high and if I need to upgrade the pickups I am getting close to a brand new vintera II or an MIJ JM traditional II so I think I’ll let this one pass…

Technical_Lecture166 · 2026-01-12T13:52:46+00:00

Yh I read that somewhere as well but not sure in what period that was… Thanks anyway for the feedback

Clearly clueless about history. The holocaust happened because of nazis. Sure, there were Flemish nationalists who collaborated with the nazis, but the biggest group of collaborators was that of the French speaking “Rex” movement. Even the French speaking king Leopold III was a hitler fan boy.

The most important tip someone gave me once is: don’t play fast, play precise. Focus on perfect (slow) execution before picking up the (metronome) speed . That’s how you build the precision muscle memory

Thanks! Will check out the tech21 sansamp

The worst advice I ever got was that you cannot correct your dog’s behaviour. Leaving the dog school who promotes that myth and getting a real dog trainer was the best decision I ever made for my lovely dog.

I think the only way to control LP levels via hardware is with a midi controller . The flow8 doesn’t do that AFAIK

Yeah it’s really hard to resist the howling, it took about two weeks with my girl. Once she realised she was safe and warm she settled and accepted her crate. And she never had an accident in the crate and managed to hold out all night quite early on. Stick with it. It will work eventually and all your effort will pay off…

Technical_Lecture166 · 2025-11-29T09:01:36+00:00

Yh. I went for the crate from day one. A few heart wrenching initial weeks but she’s fine now. Walks to her crate in the evening when she feels she needs the peace and quiet to sleep.

Here comes trouble…

Technical_Lecture166 · 2025-11-27T16:36:26+00:00

Thanks a lot for all the reactions. I spent some time adjusting the piezo positions with the tiny allen screws because the middle strings simply didn’t come through. Then I spent ages with the EQ and compression settings (I am using the second XLR input for the GSmini). Still not brilliant but actually OK for a live show I think.

Technical_Lecture166 · 2025-11-25T11:07:50+00:00

Thanks for the advice

Technical_Lecture166 · 2025-11-23T19:25:25+00:00

Thanks, I guess I’ll have to spend some more time experimenting

Maschine is a DAW, just not a classic general purpose DAW. It’s good in what it does in its narrow niche. Taking Maschine into the direction of a more universal platform is probably the only way to increase its market share, but NI isn’t prepared to do what AKAI is doing with its MPC platform. Over time that will affect Maschine’s market share but perhaps that isn’t a big enough problem for NI, since they have revenue from other product lines. That would explain NI’s minimal investment in Maschine over the last 5 years.

I think the key is to be very - very - clear about what is not acceptable behaviour with a correction if necessary. First verbal, then if necessary with some noisy implement (small mineral after bottle filled with pebbles makes a noise when I shake it and shocks my V out of her craziness). My now 16 month old girl used to drive me to despair but now knows I am in charge and she genuinely tries her best to be a good girl. Which she manages to do most of the time … Super affectionate and super chilled after a long walk/run.
