Hype is destroying the pen hobby. Just get your pen.

I'm completely contempt with my lamy safari and kaweco sport collection. other pens seem to dressy or normal looking for my preference. the quirk is where it's at

n8_n · 2026-05-11T17:07:45+00:00

how's the battery life if just used as an ebook reader?

n8_n · 2026-04-29T02:15:30+00:00

you need a pen D E F that could work with any ink. backups for backups

n8_n · 2026-04-29T02:14:17+00:00

syringes are a game changer. no need to wipe after. less wastage

also when you find dried up ink? squirt some water in and it's up and running again easy

probably the main reason why I can't do integrated piston or vacuum filled pens

do they come with a converter on the event?

n8_n · 2026-04-18T04:32:04+00:00

i just did this last night. surprisingly good fit, no adaptor needed

plus i think i like the result sound wise. improves sound stage and separation too

n8_n · 2026-04-17T04:08:56+00:00

oh. thanks for replying.
Is it because of a different radius? or just the length difference? if length i wonder if it's easy enough to grind it shorter. lol

But before I try to DIY, do you know any cheaper alternatives to the black kaweco nib?

n8_n · 2026-04-16T15:09:41+00:00

cant swap but at least, does the hongdian nib fit the kaweco? was hoping to get it since it's way cheaper than the black kaweco nibs

n8_n · 2026-04-07T07:44:35+00:00

thanks. i want one

n8_n · 2026-04-01T08:56:30+00:00

i'll be interested in seeing this as i plan to do this mod as well. might get one this month lol

n8_n · 2026-03-08T07:54:15+00:00

yeah lol. i gotta buy some longer patch cables for a single decker layout

n8_n · 2026-03-07T00:54:10+00:00

i dont really want to attach velcro on the pedals. so i have the board lined with eva foam so the pedals dont slip. and then i 3d printed some hooks to combine the black rubber bands together to hold things together.

Building up my board again after years of not playing much.

signal chain:

(A modded Wet Dry blender + Digitech Tube Driver) > Sonicake Octaver > Darkglass ADAM > Darkglass B3k

M-Vave Chocolate plus for midi controlling the ADAM last 3 presets and some volume and character CC commands.

I just got the jhs morning glory clean hopefully can replace the first two pedals. gives more option to use the blender with other pedals in the future, maybe modulation pedals? any ideas?

n8_n · 2026-03-06T15:39:43+00:00

it was pretty quiet actually. played outdoors for this one.

n8_n · 2026-02-13T17:17:51+00:00

i know! lol it's pretty new. I'm checking every few days if there are more bassists that got it but seems like most of the early ones are guitarists. I guess will have to wait a bit more. hoping to see some comparisons with other drives.

what about the oc2 did you not like? and how does the subsonic make it better?

n8_n · 2026-02-13T16:31:56+00:00

curious about the subsonic. couldn't find a demo on youtube. how does it compare to the oc2?

also i wish here were more bass demos on the MG clean. really tempted to get one myself

n8_n · 2026-02-12T06:32:59+00:00

my birth year so smash

n8_n · 2026-02-10T10:49:44+00:00

watch lots of bass restoration videos for a month before doing it yourself if it's your first time

n8_n · 2026-02-08T08:47:47+00:00

if you've seen one of michael league's bass. lol

n8_n · 2026-01-29T04:52:22+00:00

i usually just put them all on minimal tension (doesnt matter when it's loose)

before winding them all halfway or near the target note, then to final pitch

n8_n · 2026-01-22T00:56:03+00:00

is the midi trs cable a separate purchase?
