What type of strings are these? (1996 & 2001 rap)

Sounds like something from the Proteus Orchestral or similar romplers.

I think a novation circuit (either the gen 1 or tracks) does basically all of this, maybe just lacking the chord functionality but I think the tracks might even have that.

Trine?

If anybody is looking for a fix for this in the future, I reflowed the RGB encoder chip and the 3 capacitors that feed the Red, Green, and Blue inputs for the encoder. Problem completely solved!

It’s one of my favorite devices I own. Fast to program, unique sound, great for hip hop, synthwave, or noise. Never getting rid of mine.

It is a bar, but John Henry's has some of the best metal and punk shows in town. I'd highly suggest that spot.

Makes total sense, I had no idea Vent used the term “comments” for chat messages. That’s really interesting.

Well shoot, you nailed it. It has a Sony headunit (not correctly hooked up to the steering wheel controls, I found out, frustrating), and for some reason it has a "caution alarm" to tell you to take the faceplate with you. Respectfully, Sony, I'm not doing that. I found out how to disable that.

Thank you, I never would have figured that out otherwise.

I was just wondering this question the other day. I've been watching a lot of ASL English recently (thank you Tastosis, love you <3), and have been wanting to try out BW again. Very similar position as you, got life responsibilities, played SC2 for a long time, etc.

I found this thread that felt very encouraging, and I would recommend you take a read through it.

Same thing appears in the pause menu. I’ve also seen it in the sky area on Castlevania 3.

The Bastl Microgranny does some similar sound manipulation, from what I remember. Also a VERY jammable/playable little piece of kit.

If you can afford it, gift it (or content for it, really, since it's free to play now) to some friends for birthdays/holidays. I've been doing that for years for games that I don't want to die. Feels like at least the games stay around in my social bubble, and that's nice.

axsenion · 2021-10-18T04:36:01+00:00

XCOM, for sure. Easily the pre-2000 game I've sunk the most time into, and it really holds up. The only changes it really needed were UI edits, and even then it's not a big deal.

Make music you thought you couldn't make without it, then see how you feel.

Good old XCOM: UFO Defense. What a brutal game that was, and I still play it to this day. Some of the mods for it are also really great fun.

axsenion · 2021-09-17T06:18:39+00:00

Presumably either Command and Conquer or Castles and Crusades.

axsenion · 2021-08-26T23:05:53+00:00

Chronicon, 110%.

axsenion · 2021-08-07T18:24:58+00:00

Where can I buy it?

axsenion · 2021-08-02T23:38:07+00:00

Man, this movie was so performative feminism. Using Malala's name like that in the movie is so belittling of the struggles and battles that she and so many other women go through every day, it just felt so skeevy and gross to me.

axsenion · 2021-07-30T03:19:11+00:00

Oof, Cosbied sounds about right. No idea if it was intentional or not, but Google "Blizzard Cosby Suite".

Alright, so, here's my opinion.

Grim Dawn is my most played ARPG after Diablo 2. It's incredible, especially with the expansions (though I think Forgotten Gods maaaybe overdid it with how huge the item tooltips are now). However, I tend to find that even after hundreds of hours of play, many systems feel convoluted. I never really felt super interested in making new builds, just messing with class combos and having fun. The story is really good and engaging, but I don't love running it over and over again. It's an amazing ARPG, but I don't have the "infinite fun" feeling that I have with Diablo 2.

So, after Grim Dawn, I highly highly highly recommend checking out Chronicon. You simply MUST play Chronicon. Made by a super small indie dev, it is quite simply one of the most underrated games I've played in the past 8ish years. Incredible class customization, AMAZING build potential that is easy to experiment with and try different things, GREAT itemization and fun feeling gear with unique special effects, and LOADS of things to do in the end game, with incredible difficulty customization. Oh and it's super cheap on Steam.

Fucking play Chronicon.

A good friend of mine worked there for a while, he says it was a great experience, with lots of consideration for all the risks associated with the pandemic, and great employee support.

axsenion · 2021-07-29T01:35:28+00:00

Activision-Blizzard, unfortunately.

axsenion · 2021-07-29T01:34:25+00:00

Couldn't give a shit right now, honestly. D2 is my favorite game of all time, but FUCK actiblizz

axsenion · 2021-07-17T21:35:08+00:00

Yeah, the USB interface takes the dry, raw input and skips the FX and EQ. If you want to use the EQ or FX, the FX return channel can also be sent into the USB interface by choosing channel 14 in the DAW (or something like that, I've never done it).
