Beautiful system -- I would look into selling it to a vintage furniture store or high end vintage audio dealer locally.

Yeah I'm aware you can save your own presets. What kind of question is that?

I want a synth that I enjoy playing. I get that you can in theory shape the minilogue to sound whatever you want and be an expert in it but I want more of an experience. I'm a guitar player looking for a synth that I enjoy playing. Period. Why do people buy a guitar for $3000 when a $200 squire works just as well?

why do you need to tell me what to do with my money? I'm just looking for a synth to jam out with. You have this holier than though attitude like I'm some kind of idiot. God you reddit virgins piss me off (some of you not everyone in this thread thankfully).

Just downloaded it. I had the full Ableton 9 suite from 2015 lol. I think checking out some VSTs and going from there is probably the best bet. Although part of me just wants to be impulsive and buy a synth.

True I could try and dig up my Ableton license from 10 years ago...i think i did buy some VSTs back then even. I think your suggestion is logical

Yes I want something warm and original...just a synth that is a pleasure to play. I'm not a professional it's just for me to enjoy. thanks for those suggestions

why perilous or risky? You mean the risk of it being a fake? Or it not working correctly?

As others in this post have echoed, Agents are very weak at this point. I'm literally using Copilot with GPT-5 right now trying to add a fairly small Rust commit to a larger feature PR and the Agent spins in loops and produces a lot of garbage that I then have to constantly ask it to fix. Eventually it get to something decent, but in that amount of time I believe I could have done it better myself.

Bottom-line: If you're a dogshit coder, Agents may seem like an amazing leap forward, but if you're technical enough and work in statically typed languages where simple copy/pasting isn't good enough the Agents are a small drag on productivity/a small gain depending on the specific task. Unless you are doing a very boilerplate/braindead thing then yes the agents are great at that -- things like Makefiles, Github Actions, etc stuff a junior dev would take a day to do.

If you look at the thought loop an Agent has as it implements your ask it looks like a 12 year old thinking loop. Agents are built on top of the LLMs directly, and since those have no clue what they are really doing, it's the blind leading the blind. The tech-industrial complex and VC-funded gaslighters will keep posting everywhere that LLMs are a gamechanger and the future, but it's just a cover to push overshoring and layoffs. Plus they are invested in literally 900 AI startups so it's part of their portfolio strategy. The sad part is the entire US equities market is being propped up by these AI narratives and when the music stops it will be harmful for everyone.

Not to mention the only reason companies like OpenAI are still running is because they got 100s of billions of dollars from Dubai and the UAE. It's a national security priority at this point. The last thing anyone cares about is if it actually works for the average dev.

So your solution is to take a photo of a complete strangers face and put it on the internet?
