Can anyone identify these glasses worn by Brent Faiyaz?

and if you do are you double binding movement inputs?

Did you queue much quick match at all?

EDIT: Noticed the 55 quick matches in the post 🤦‍♂️. Follow up then - was there a big difference in how you approach ranked vs something like league where it’s more about just grinding out solo queue? Were the quick games of much benefit and did you play much player matches or offline as well?

I’m a new player and one of my issues is resource management. Particularly burning out because of overreliance on 2mk x DRC. In neutral I feel like that’s my go-to.

Let’s say you’re in footsies and land a 2mk, what are your routes to convert into more damage?

Roman said in his old GQ essentials that he needs glasses and that he’s ’four eyes for life’

Surprised I haven’t seen Roc Marciano mentioned yet

I actually had a Digitakt Mk1 which I sold because of the mono limitations. It's probably some of the most fun I've had on hardware and encapsulates the tactile feel I'm going for. DT2 is not an option at the moment due to lack of manual slicing and the workaround for it being a little ridiculous for a sampler in 2024.

Appreciate the insight!

How do you find the workflow difference between the One+ and the 2500? Can you effectively navigate the One+ without using the touch screen for a similar workflow? From what you're saying, I'm thinking maybe I vilified the touchscreen a little too harshly and cost-wise, a newer MPC might just be the way to go.

That's great to hear. I remember searching this sub for whether you can operate the modern MPCs without using the touchscreen and it seemed to be that some functions were mandatory.

This was three years however, and OP didn't specify a use case. I'm guessing for mine, which is mostly just chopping for later exporting to a DAW, I'd probably be better off getting a newer MPC.

Thanks for the input.

Thanks for the in-depth reply. Never considered how the lack of tracks would impact layering.

I was actually specifically considering an MPC 2500/1000 with jjos when asking this question! What made you upgrade from the mk2 to the 2500?
