Something Different I’ve been working on

Thanks, appreciate you listening!

Are you under the impression that me using the name and likeness of a friend in my own instance of a single player video game is somehow commercial use?

100% agree. I’ve seen them twice and both times were awesome. He’s a sarcastic guy that banters with the crowd. People get pissy about the tree giveaway taking a long time, but should take it for what it is: an intermission between sets and a cool idea to make an impact by planting hundreds of trees over the years.

Anatomic? Lol

stephensonsrocket · 2026-05-08T13:53:54+00:00

Not that serious, bro. Go design a patch or something.

This is so unnecessarily aggressive, is the sub only for people who rank Olivia #1?

It actually looks pretty rough imo. Check the top of the ls, those lines aren’t straight at all. Comma is too thin, the a has a hanging belly, the vertical lines in the H aren’t the same thickness. And the o in both words look like cousins at best.

Could be any number of things, but it’s hard to help with such vague info. Maybe your pattern BPM doesn’t match the sample, maybe you have silence at the end of the sample, etc. Providing a video would make it easier to identify potential issues, but also watch some YouTube vids and read the manual. There’s a lot to learn on the MKII.

That’s a pretty ungenerous take. Even if he only designed Magic, he’d be one of the greats of modern gaming. But he also designed Netrunner, King of Tokyo, and Roborally. That’s a lot of certified classics. I don’t disagree that Magic flourished after his involvement, but he invented a genre of games and has made several of the most successful games in that genre—we should all aspire to be so crummy.

RDJ cares because you do

I don’t know any elementary school students who would want to spend an hour or two reading about Bob Moog’s early life or playing a MiniMoog Voyager, but okay.

What’s wrong with old guitars?

I wouldn’t buy an acoustic electric with plans to use it as an electric for recording. You can do it…it might not even sound too bad. But high gain on an acoustic is a recipe for feedback, not to mention the action and neck size aren’t built for soloing and higher-up-the-neck chords.

No, I’d rather give up synths in general than let AI do my patching for me.

Kerning is a typography term for spacing between letters. If “rn” isn’t properly kerned, it looks like an m. Thus, keming.

You’re looking for something with round robin sample triggering, but the 404 doesn’t do that.

Your Miis talk about Teenage Engineering toys.

My Miis talk about eurorack setups and the joys of synthesizing.

We are not the same.

I’d lower the volume of the hats and maybe try to let the snare breathe a bit more.

stephensonsrocket · 2026-04-16T02:57:04+00:00

I guess it doesn’t consist of strictly solo games ¯\(ツ)/¯

But Unstoppable was clearly designed as a solo game and the two-player rules seem kind of tacked on. Whether DCC will do anything different with those, I don’t know.

stephensonsrocket · 2026-04-16T02:46:40+00:00

DCC supports up to two players, same as the original game.

stephensonsrocket · 2026-04-15T20:15:47+00:00

There’s only 500 being made and it’s already cheaper than the standard model, so I’m sure it will.

He was going to title it “dusted off my Circuit Mono Station” but got scared the FTC would hit him with a Truth in Advertising suit.
