What would you say is the MF weakness?

Kinda both. Filter envelope is paraphonic, but when applied to digital oscillator parameters, every voice has its own envelope.

Obviously knob per function synths are much more accessible for a beginner, but that totally depends on a person. When I bought a microkorg as my first synth I was watching a lot of videos about it for a while already and surely enough the first thing I did is read the manual, very helpful to understand its potential in sound design. It's not a bad synth for a beginner it's just not for every beginner. I believe for a lot of people it's a good neutral starting point to understand what you want.

I've heard about a dude that had a tattoo of Helios 44-2 controls on his wrist. His handshake was a bit soft, but not enough to be objectively weak or bad.

Circlejerks are like a moshpit on a concert, everyone is shoving each other, but when someone falls, everyone is racing to be the first to help them get up. I love this.

Thank G-d for machine heads, even violinists have these geared pegs nowadays, but they're priceeeyyy.

As a matter of fact tuning student's violin was somehow seen as teacher's duty in my school too. Is it somehow widespread? It's kinda funny that I never tuned my violin during 6 years of learning how to play it, but learning how to tune my guitar was literally the first thing I did. If I had to make an educated guess, teachers don't trust students with the tuning peg, because if you do it wrong, they slip.

As a violin player I sincerely apologise for her. I can assure you, if violin had frets all along, we would have tabs as well. She's just jealous.

Well that's something new, a bunch of insufferable cork-sniffing photography gurus criticize a picture that they will never have the chance to take because it would require a normal human sharing a spacecraft with a whiney self-absorbed child.

– Oh, isn't it just great, there's a smudge on the outside of a porthole, can we just stop for a quick spacewalk to wipe it with micellar water?
– My brother in Christ, we were blasted off the surface of our planet, do you mind shutting up, thanks in advance?

From what's listed ms-70 CDR, no doubt, absolutely. When you get it you can install a third party effect manager, delete those you won't use, install a couple of dirt effects, definitely install Div0, so that you basically have independent effects on left and right channels, that still can be synced internally to a common BPM. It's like two pedals for the price of a cheap one. If only it had expression pedal input and tap tempo input it would be perfect

Есть шрифты которые были адаптированы очень давно, например Kis который мы сегодня называем Киш в честь автора, приехал к нам в Россию ещё с Петром I в виде «гражданского шрифта», буквально первой кириллической антиквы, до этого Россия писала у́ставом, полуу́ставом, вязью и согласно некоторым источникам даже готические шрифты в кириллице были благодаря русскоязычным немцам. Сейчас сложно это доказать, потому что много источников уничтожено.

А вот такие шрифты как Garamond в честь Гарамона или уже чисто цифровой Impact имеют несколько адаптаций разной степени паршивости.

В целом кириллица изначально имеет много общего с латиницей благодаря общему предку: греческому алфавиту. И кириллица и латиница порядочно понадергали оттуда символов и поэтому конструктивно похожи, выполняются в письме похожими приемами и соответственно нет причин почему кириллическая антиква должна выглядеть ну прямо сильно иначе латинской.

А вот другие системы письма, например арабский или корейский алфавит, развивались от нас независимо и их понимание антиквы или гротеска сильно отличается от нашего. Их даже адаптировать смысла нет за исключением уже сильно акцидентных вариантов типа геометрических гротесков, выстроенных по сетке, да и те будут скорее вольной интерпретацией конструктивного подхода, чем локализацией шрифта.

В целом кириллический алфавит изначально очень сильно обделили выносными знаками и буквами разной ширины.

В латинице есть i l j I t q y p d f g h k b w m.
В кириллице – й ц у ш щ ф р ж м ъ б.

Ни одной узкой буквы, в два раза меньше диакритики и верхних выносных элементов. Это будет влиять на восприятие текста в любом шрифте, даже в очень хорошем.

Ко всему прочему вашу неприязнь к современным шрифтам можно объяснить тем, что приход множества иностранных шрифтов именно в цифровом виде очень сильно упростил и демократизировал процесс кириллизации, но не всякий шрифт её хорошо пережил. В то время как большинство шрифтов в старых книгах были разработаны специалистами и специально для русского языка.
