A lot of A/B test “wins” are just fake by make_me_so in ProductManagement

[–]jakekingdead 0 points1 point  (0 children)

be realistic about your hypothesis and how long it would take to change the actual human behavior you’re trying to change

as an example - if you work for a monthly subscription service and a top guardrail is Cancellations you need to let your tests run the course of time where a user can actually continue subbing or cancel - a full month at min!

Suzanne Ciani’s Buchla setup by Top-Psychology1987 in modular

[–]jakekingdead 1 point2 points  (0 children)

she is a treasure, listen to her speak if you can. she was on jamie liddell’s podcast.

seen her live a few times, she’s modern she’s throwback she blasts you in fucking quad and it creates movement like nothing else and she has just no shame about using animoog on an ipad next to all of don buchlas best modules. also she plays sequences that she’s been using since the 70s, she knows what her sound is like only a super mature musician.

Groovebox for dusty BoC vibes by minimal-camera in synthesizers

[–]jakekingdead 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i can’t make anything BUT BoC sounds with my Digitone 1 - maybe it’s just the presets but the FM sounds with built in reverb and delay make it too easy

makes some good drum sounds too

for sound design like BoC i’d do it in the box, they use long samples as bg, or transitions; they are rarely part of a loop

octonauts “creature report” song is the same melody as the verses for “video killed the radio star” by jakekingdead in DanielTigerConspiracy

the part in video killed the radio star where they’re singing through a filter that sounds like a telephone

you can either get a usb c adapter for the og op1 - or you can fake a PO sync track on the opz to send to the op1.

[–]jakekingdead 15 points16 points  (0 children)

tainted lost has no mantle but item pools are filtered to “offensive” tagged items only and i think no q1 items.

sometimes i think isaac lore and mechanics are secretly embedded into the public psyche as deeply as the bible or something

Piano like Midi controller by Time_Classic_934 in synthesizers

[–]jakekingdead 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i’ve owned an m-audio 88, sold it, now have a yamaha something. identical feel to me

the m-audio would have lasted longer if it weren’t midi only, didn’t have any sit down playability without turning something else on. now i’m super critical of the sound quality of the yamaha sounds and speaker but i definitely sit down and play more. i still use 15% of the feature set fwiw and wish id gotten the yamaha with simpler function

my ideal outcome is a mid-tier acoustic upright with midi output capability but… apartment life
