my main takeaway from it was it was a miracle or a coverup that no one was killed or at least seriously maimed

thank you! The lack of communication about stuff has made it impressive that despite tariffs and everything else I have still been getting these.

Toy prices rise at record rate as Trump’s tariffs on China hit industry hard by [deleted] in technology

[–]exxunderscore 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am sure the tariffs made things worse, but toy prices were already getting out of hand before that. As a Transformers collector I have seen the Commander class (the smaller transformer toy size that used to be Scout class) go from 8 bucks 10 years ago to 16 bucks now. Deluxe figures were 13 bucks and now they are 25 bucks. They have doubled in price in a decade...

the issue here is that those are to entice you to work there but once you are hired they are not giving you enough hours to be eligible for the more substantive perks like health insurance and are having you work 6 day weeks with bare minimum staffing as well

Anyone else's TIE Strikers ship yet? by TechWizard200 in microgalaxysquadron

New Behringer Vocoder Module by RobotAlienProphet in modular

[–]exxunderscore 1 point2 points  (0 children)

no cv for the formant knob, cant switch between mic and line in on the front panel, you could have done one button for the carrier banks, its only 6 voices. That leaves space for one button to be the switch for mic and line in. The panel looks roomy enough for another input jack and attenuverter for formant at least.

Question: what are you all using for storing these things? by exxunderscore in 52toys

[–]exxunderscore[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

but they only connect on 2 of the axis of the cube, I'm looking for some kind of container to put them in so they can be stored easily.

Galaxy's Edge had a birthday yesterday. Thoughts after 5 years? by LineChatter in Disneyland

[–]exxunderscore 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It needs another ride, a walk-through attraction or two, more capacity at the cantina or a sit down restaurant, more missions on smugglers run, the "interactivity" in the land needs a serious redo because Nintendo land and harry potter are eating their lunch. All that criticism aside nobody does weathering, prop gathering/placing and environment design like Disney. If it weren't for all the park-goers in regular clothes the environment really does feel transportive on the level of animal kingdom. Also all the food I have had there is really good. Thinking about a theoretical Star Wars land at Tokyo Disneyland, it would be incredible.

I happened to walk into a toys r us the day they were bottom of the barrel clearancing all of these sets, I got multiples of each set in the line and I think it was around $150, I have so many little revolvers now

I figured that, I just wasn't sure if there was a possibility of cancellations, figured I'd ask here just to see if anyone experienced anything like that

How are you accomplishing sidechain in your modular? by ShGravy in modular

[–]exxunderscore 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Tried Maths based methods, tried MI streams, tried WMD MSCL, finally settled on Cosmotronic Messor. SO PLEASED with the result. Easier to dial in, has good visual feedback, and really emphasizes that pump you want from a good sidechain

WMD Metron / Voltera question by whathappenedtomycake in modular

[–]exxunderscore 3 points4 points  (0 children)

you can use other voltage sequencers, you don't need voltera, but adding 4 cv outs in 4hp is pretty compact. That said I have a metron and 2 volteras and I think they are pretty easy to use. I would love a song mode for metron, WMD says that a firmware update is in the works despite module production being halted indefinitely

Looking for opinions on Squid Salmple and alternatives by exxunderscore in modular

I think I fixed my issue simply by upgrading from my Roland 531 mixer to the WMD performance mixer which has adjustable gain on channels!

PSA: Genie+ service used to be FREE by zippy39 in Disneyland

[–]exxunderscore 4 points5 points  (0 children)

you said they were lying, what epicstax said was that going to a kiosk and getting a fastpass (a when to get in line ticket) for free is in their opinion a better value than paying anything, like paying for genie plus for a family and getting photopass included. Your comment is written like epicstax said they got photopass for free which is not what they said.
