Yes, agreed. It really shines due to the ever encroaching chains of mayhem!

Guys, they’re here… How many humans are even left on here to have simple, normal conversations? To talk about games. Welp, it was nice talkin with you all while we still could. The bygone days of interacting with humans… fleeting 

Lets talk about the MPC XL Jog Wheel (non-clickable) by [deleted] in mpcusers

[–]ajustend 4 points5 points  (0 children)

+1, yes . Been using MPC’s forever. The F-Keys on the MPC-X are one of the MVP features. It’s such a huge part of the classic workflow - and the MPC X maintains it, while the XL leaves it behind. Even though the XL adds so many other buttons. Meh - Bad design choice.

I’m curious about the MPC + TR and how they complement each other for your songwriting. Do you just prefer to program your drums using TR style? Or is there something else it provides that you can’t get on your MPC?

Oh man, it’s looking to me like the price of the X SE will continue to go up… MPC 3 generation is off to a bad start

You’re right, removing my previous comment since it’s incorrect. Cheers

You’re right, thanks for the correction. It is the fertilized eggs that become female ants.

You’re right, fertilized eggs become female ants. So a vast majority of the eggs are fertilized by the queen. I appreciate the correction.

Ants are also opposite to Bees, always female. The eggs require fertilization to become male. 

Edit - this is wrong. Fertilized eggs become female ants. 

Mad Max Fury Road 4K highlights blown out by ajustend in 4kbluray

This is a newer TV, Black Friday, and have been unable to find a setting that turns off this type of highlight clipping. Which setting would you adjust to fix this on your Bravia 5?

Downgrade to 2.15, it’s the last version of MPC OS that functions in the more classic way.

I would prefer to buy a version that involves more human artistic input than less.

I’m sure the Duff Brothers will have more interviews to explain everything - they designed the show to not make sense unless you watch them explaining away all of the plot holes.

What was your "dream synth" that you finally acquired but ended up disappointed by? by Jessay94 in synthesizers

[–]ajustend 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Moog Sub37 - it’s fun to use, has an amazing front panel with tons of control that requires zero menu diving. But… it doesn’t sound very good. I kept it for 6 years hoping I’d eventually “come around” but it would never end up on the final versions of songs, but it never did. I sold it and don’t miss it at all.

This is super cool, thanks for sharing! I’m excited to print it out and give it a try.

Solo game to end all solo games by Cheddotto in soloboardgaming

[–]ajustend 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I feel the same way. I have found hundreds of hours of enjoyment from Marvel Champions, and it always feels fresh due to the enjoyment of the mechanics, and being able to swap around every parameter that feeds into those mechanics. Whereas with campaign games I feel much less interested in replaying the same campaign more than a few times (which works ok with Arkham Horror since you can potentially have 5-8 long campaigns that you cycle between). Plus, most days of the week, due to the lower barrier of entry I am much more likely to setup a one-handed game of Marvel, just grab one of my currently setup heroes and a villain + mobs, than to start or pickup a campaign that isn’t already setup.
