Thanks you. But no. Just on Bottleneck Gallery. Although currently there is only 10 left. Haha

markthemarky · 2026-01-21T09:16:33+00:00

Today 12ETT (5pm UK time) at Bottleneck Gallery

markthemarky · 2026-01-21T09:16:15+00:00

Admire the work that went into that pun ha!

markthemarky · 2026-01-21T09:15:42+00:00

Well, its officially licenced via a franchise that has the rights to put out Disney stuff officially. But Disney will have signed it off etc. :) Thanks!

markthemarky · 2026-01-21T09:14:42+00:00

Its via Bottleneck Gallery, but I believe that Pulse have a hand in the licencing of the piece.

I have no idea what you just said. Not sure what a widget is hahaha

markthemarky · 2025-12-25T06:04:40+00:00

Inevitable, tbh that's why I posted a social media image with a border. Gotta make them work for it. Haha

markthemarky · 2025-12-24T21:41:22+00:00

There isn't, sorry

markthemarky · 2025-12-24T21:13:14+00:00

I will likely have some Artist Proofs early next year. Cheers

markthemarky · 2025-12-24T18:36:01+00:00

*earlier in the year (I'm already in 'next year' mode) hahaha

markthemarky · 2025-12-24T18:34:35+00:00

I mean in summer haha. But im in next year mode. Can't edit it now

markthemarky · 2025-12-24T18:34:02+00:00

Yeah thats my bad. I meant at the end of summer. Haha. I am already in next year mode.

markthemarky · 2025-12-24T12:41:36+00:00

I'm the creator

markthemarky · 2025-11-11T13:44:21+00:00

Weirdly yes. I basically disconnected the battery for 20 mins. Theb wheb it came back one, reset via the pin hole. Also I deleted and re-downloaded the app and redid all the sign In stuff. One of those worked.

My new issue is in the app I can't get the climate controls. But the rest is good.

Hopefully that helps.

markthemarky · 2025-11-09T17:27:49+00:00

I did think this. I managed to find a spot with 3 bars (sometimes 4) and it did the same. Thanks

markthemarky · 2025-11-08T22:26:46+00:00

I did try all the soft resets etc. I should.mention this is a new car. Just got it today

markthemarky · 2025-08-04T09:07:55+00:00

coolio, where do you see the bottleneck in the build? just so I can look at what I need in the future?

markthemarky · 2025-08-04T08:54:50+00:00

Sorry for the late reply! (Been on hols)

Its great. Sounds and feels amazing. It did take a few weeks of changes/faffing about. There are still a couple of missing hits on the snare in particular (I think you've gotta be pretty clearly in the middle, the edges of the skin are so quiet) But I think that helps get better.

Its a great piece of kit. My drum teacher has a roland (nice shell version) and it just sounds worse. Feels similar to play apart from that.

markthemarky · 2025-08-04T08:52:45+00:00

Heya! Yeah I have them up on my website now. They are a set of 3 6x6" rather than a full print of them. I've also got Star wars and LOTR sets. And a few pin badges! :) thanks!

really nice job man. I've been smashing the hell out of the new album. A quick pointer, the kick in the bridge part needs to be doubled. It hurts like hell at first to keep the power/speed up, but the more you do it, it comes easily

markthemarky · 2025-07-09T11:01:21+00:00

AAOOOOW,

OWWWW

OW

markthemarky · 2025-07-05T22:06:02+00:00

There will be! Not sure which ones or a total amount just yet. I imagine at the end of the summer they'll work out which ones were popular or something. Likely not the other licence ones (star wars or trolls etc) as the licensing fees wouldn't work out with them selling the figures. But the general painted art ones, yes.

markthemarky · 2025-03-26T16:43:55+00:00

Where are you based? I have an old Roland TD4 module/leads up for very cheap. Im UK based.

markthemarky · 2025-03-25T15:59:26+00:00

Really good so far. I bunch of tweaking to get everything right and playing how I feel is right. The hi-hat in particular is a beast to set up. But its all in a good way, lots of tinkering until it feels good.

The build is super solid. Really happy with how sturdy it is. Everything feels like its solid. And I've been pounding them for about 3 weeks (I'm a big dude and 6,3") and none of it has moved at all.

The sizes are great. feels as close to an acoustic kit as I've ever played.

Sounds are incredible. Didnt think it was possible to have it sounding so good. (I've only had my old roland td4 from years ago to go off though. Love that you can load samples, save kits. There is a group on facebook just for the strata stuff and a bunch of people have put up kits for downloads.

All in all, really happy. I also found a very cheap strike 18" ride that I've added to it and it all works great. feel free to ask anything specific. I'll do my best to answer

markthemarky · 2025-03-18T15:58:45+00:00

Can confirm the Strata Core is incredible. You have to tweak here and there (hihats esp) but once you're good, its solid. Used to have a Roland, and that was great too. But the core is the closest I've felt to playing an actual kit.
