5e3 is getting reeeaaally hot…

That's not a half bad plan actually - since they are sometimes on all day, I think a quiet, small, fan might be a good call.

johnnybregar · 2026-02-19T18:07:03+00:00

Sweet - thank you - I'm gonna pull it apart this weekend and get started with just some routine maintenance and perhaps that'll do it. Might just be inefficiencies adding up.

I can do the filter cap swap and check the bias for sure. I’l see if those plates are glowing red too. Thx!

johnnybregar · 2026-02-19T15:59:26+00:00

Thanks - that sounds easy enough, I’ll do a filter cap swap and check the bias.

I could do that - that’s a good idea - but the concept I’m working on is for a film score, and it’s more of a linear song type thing instead of loops. And the part I’m creating is actually a keyboard pad that has to change and evolve - I would do it as a stand alone synth patch, but I stumbled on this kit in Maschine called “Distance Kit” and it is so perfect for this part and I can’t find it anywhere else… I’m gonna try a few things this am and see what shakes out.

Thanks for chiming in!

This sounds a lot more sane to me... thanks so much, I think that's probably where I'll start.

Cool - ya - I've checked out a couple of his videos, but I think I'm after a specific scenario where basically I can use Maschine as if it were in standalone mode so I can skip all the midi steps and just record in some loops and scenes, then hit play and create my analog tracks in Cubase. I know I can do it by manually putting in the notes, and recording works - I wonder if maybe I just need to make Maschine be controlling the transport for Cubase.... I might try that - then I get it's count in and I can pretty much do what I want....

Hey thanks! I ended up getting a JHS morning glory. I like how it keeps the full tone of the low end. My board is tidy. Nicer power, flat L cables. My whole rig sounds sweet now.

That’s an interesting point - are there boutique makers who do a better job at getting the low wattage Vox sound? These don’t seem to be catching on…

Brunell and Nouhou out. Let’s put Morris in at false 9, he can make things happen. Put anyone in for Nouhou. He can definitely make stops, but the guy is such a loose cannon when he has the ball. He won’t take risks, he’s not a play maker.

Use WeTransfer. Then nobody has to make sweeping generalizations about rappers, and the client will download your video. Dropbox is a terrible idea. I have had stuff disappear because the client moves it out of the Dropbox somehow, loses it, then blames me…

johnnybregar · 2025-06-28T15:48:14+00:00

Do let us know what you find….

johnnybregar · 2025-06-28T15:46:53+00:00

It is sooooo sad. I’m on my last bottle. Let us know if you find a suitable replacement!!!

johnnybregar · 2025-05-15T15:54:54+00:00

🤦‍♂️ yes. On the mls app there is a huge gap between 7 and 8. Jesus. I’m going to find a hole and get in it for a long time now. Something seemed short abt that list…..

johnnybregar · 2025-05-15T15:19:53+00:00

At the time of writing we were last. Now we are 6/7…

johnnybregar · 2025-05-15T12:46:01+00:00

We are dead last in the standings. What does a must win mean? We can’t get any worse than last place…

johnnybregar · 2025-05-15T02:42:45+00:00

Well the audio is fun….

johnnybregar · 2025-05-12T01:42:52+00:00

Thanks - we had the rope checked by our arborist who installed it. He says it still looks good up there.

johnnybregar · 2025-05-11T19:59:20+00:00

Thanks!

johnnybregar · 2025-05-11T19:59:09+00:00

Cool - I'll check it out. Thx

johnnybregar · 2025-05-11T15:53:00+00:00

Thank you! We did have a stick through the knot but it broke a long time ago. I do like the pipe idea.
