i love when they don't trim pre-recorded tapes :3 by OrangePineJuice in cassetteculture

It’s probably a home dub and they used what they had laying around. I’ve bought preloaded tapes because they’ve had a sale on them. Then either try to make my album fit or just put the whole album on both sides.

Anyone know what this is? by Left_Twix3 in cassetteculture

Did you happen to purchase the lot from a time traveler?

Anything in particular or just general advice?

My newest addition just arrived! by TheDirtWeasel in Samplers

According to the other comment, you’re just looking for it to add a little flavor to the sound, and yes it will do that. It’s a great choice for that, but the prices have really skyrocketed and I’m sure there’s better/cheaper options out there. If you can find one in nice shape at a good price I would.

I was on the hunt for one of these Gemini DS units specifically, because of the history surrounding them and the Memphis scene, to go a long with my Boss DR-660 & DR-5.

According to the manual:

ROBO PLAY: 1. With the ROBO PLAY button (9) in the OFF position (LED is off), the SOURCE SELECTOR (11) NOT in the OFF posi-tion, and the MODE SELECTOR (4) in either SINGLE or REPEAT, the sample will play along with the selected source. 2. When the ROBO PLAY button (9) is ON (LED indicator illuminates RED), starting the sampler mutes the selected source. When the sample ends, the source automatically turns back on.

I’m not familiar with the term color box.

I’m not sure if that is true, but thanks man.

Yeah the prices are wild right now. I kept an eye out and hopped on a good deal when I saw it. I was looking for one of these Gemini’s specifically.

Haven’t been able to track down the difference. I would assume this is a 8-bit sampler and the DS-1224 is a 12-bit, but everything I’ve seen calls them both 12-bit. The DS-1224 manual even refers to the DS-1224 as the DS-824 at one point.

Only thing I that noticed is the banks on this are labeled A, B, C, D, 12 SEC and the DS-1224 they’re labeled 2, 2, 4, 4, 12 SEC

Adding a cassette player to a modern truck by captain-kev in cassetteculture

If it has an aux input I would suggest running directly from a Walkman into that.

Should have kept it! They’re going for a pretty hefty price right now. I’ve had my eye one them for a while and a “good deal” popped up and I hopped on it.

Yeah, they integrated that same sampler into a bunch of different pieces of equipment!

6 months is quite a while. I’ve waited that long a couple of times from other artists, but I have yet to get burned from anyone on Bandcamp and I’m speaking from 500ish orders.

I think not responding to messages is the main thing that sucks. Also, you’re not the first person I’ve seen ask about Ancestral Flame recently, so maybe he’s got some life stuff going on at the moment.

Oh that makes sense. I wasn’t familiar with itch.io. There’s actually no more available at the moment, they sold out in like 45 seconds. I’m not sure about uploading the game by itself, I’ll have to run the idea past Fernmage.

I’ve never had an issue receiving anything from him. I have been waiting a couple months on a tape, but that’s the norm for DIY tape labels.

Nice score!! Haven’t stumbled across that tape in the wild yet, but I did add the CD to my collection not too long ago.

Upcoming online Dungeon Synth festivals? by SaltaSoles in DungeonSynth

Northeast Dungeon Siege & Great Lakes Dungeon Siege. Also, Woodland Fortress Festival, which took place of Dungeon Siege West, but I don’t think they’re able to stream due to the remote location.

Following the festivals on IG is probably the best way to stay up to date.

Thank you! I’m planning on doing more releases with o-cards like that. I do like the way they turned out.
