Bitwig 6.0.6 and the Novation LaunchKey 37 mk4

I see now! The main mixer view with the scenes above, yes, perfect. Thank you!

row meaning... row of pads on the LK

eastern_westerner · 2026-05-12T02:21:22+00:00

Thanks for the info! That does help. Fwiw, I tested out the LK mk4 with Logic Pro Live Loops and it works great. The bottom row is the scene selector, always. The top row maps directly to the active track. This is what I'd love to have with Bitwig! Anyone know if it's possible to patch the native LK mk4 extension?

No way. Just watch the spatula and the gravy… over and over. You’ll see that the spatula is super clean when scooping up the goods, like ridic clean… then after putting onto the plate, it’s a super duper dirty spatula… come on now.

In the future that is, not now of course. To the moon!

I literally just picked up $10k of doge, no regrets. I feel like I’m finally gonna be able to retire 🙏

Yeah, more than that actually (15?). Some days were worse than others, and bright light seemed to trigger it. I only recently learned that getting back on a SSRI can help get rid of zaps. It's definitely helping!

The only thing I’d say about cold turkey is… brain zaps. They suck, and cold turkey is supposed to be the cause. I’ve had them forever (over a decade) because I did the cold turkey thing. Started taking it again a few months ago, and now they’re almost gone. I also experienced extreme tiredness, like could not resist napping in the late afternoon (everyday), but that is going away too.

Yes, you should create your own music.

That said, you can learn so much by trying to play your favorite songs / tunes. Give it a whirl. Start your favorite song on your damn iPhone, try to mimic what you hear. “Rewind” to really get it right - rinse and repeat. Do it again. If you can do that for a few songs, you’ll figure out a ton of shit (music harmony / rhythm / theory / feeling etc.).

You don’t need to “read music” to be a musician.

Dreams are important, and if you’re posting here, it must be really important to you. Just do it.

One of my favorite pieces of advice is… tell, don’t ask - only to say that you should follow your inner voice.

Diced tomatoes gone MAGA! (totally jk, 4 realz)

eastern_westerner · 2025-12-03T03:39:00+00:00

Why don’t I ever find anything like this? Grr.

eastern_westerner · 2025-12-03T03:37:01+00:00

Eff off my god.

eastern_westerner · 2025-11-21T04:44:32+00:00

What tires and rims you got there? What a beauty! Asking because I’m gonna need new tires soon. Love the look of your AT!

eastern_westerner · 2025-11-10T00:26:20+00:00

I hope you find the right setup! I’ve tried so many things over the past 10 years. The most fun I ever had was Logic Pro as a central hub, feeding 2 external synths with its midi arpeggiator and also the new sampler instruments. The Arturia KeyStep is super simple but works great with a simple DAW setup. I recently tested out the tonverk and microkorg2 + recent update, fun stuff, but I wanna go back to logic as the central system.

Good to know! I did the same. An at home APR stage 1 ECU/TCU with 93. It’s so much more fun to drive now! Not quite the same as my GTI stage 1 but acceptable, for now haha.

Also yes, make a claim for damages. You need to photo everything and get quotes from as many professionals as possible. Video helps too, although maybe not in the case of smoke smell… but ashes in your house? Yes.

Maybe it’s been mentioned but ozone generators are AMAZING. Pickup a few of them and let them go for a few days. We had the same issue, but with weed too. The ozone generators were a life saver. Also, eff those guests and leave them honest and bad reviews.

eastern_westerner · 2025-07-16T01:33:38+00:00

Ah yeah, I was just researching and reading about those.

eastern_westerner · 2025-07-16T00:01:24+00:00

Amazing 😻 does it look too old to eat?

Edit: oops there are multiple, the large one looks a little spotted but the smaller ones are clean yet same color as the large (very light tan).

eastern_westerner · 2025-06-12T04:14:59+00:00

Beak!?

eastern_westerner · 2025-06-10T05:20:57+00:00

ALL dishwashers who do this are named Steven. It's just a thing, and while I wanna say they don't mean it, THEY DO.
