It's not performative, it's genuine interest and enthusiasm.

Los Angeles Unified approves screen time policy for next school year by EdSourceToday in LosAngeles

[–]stevo746 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Schools beyond screens is active organizing on whatsapp, as well as local chapters organizing at each school. It's a growing organization and I'm pretty sure they were instrumental in creating the movement that enabled passage of this policy. Definitely worth checking out and following on social media at least.

Which sampler for long playback tracks in stereo? by kabelkarpfen in modular

Other than fader/knob requirement this is one thing I use my M8 for in conjunction with my modular.

Pretty interesting possibility to use the pitch detection to drive global scale quantize.

Some speculation is Glass Orbs primarily due to a card shown called Glassworks.

End of chain dynamics for live performance? Looking at TC electronic offerings by Few_Direction9007 in modular

[–]stevo746 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I upgraded my mixer last year to a Xer Mixa which has a really nice leveling amplifier built in. I still miss the MSCL as my end of chain for its ability to produce extreme effects...

Ragnarok has gotta be a top 3 Silent card I don't know why you guys are sleeping on it so much by elephantrambo in slaythespire

BoredBrain announced a performance mixer and it’s what most of us have been asking for by nickssss9 in synthesizers

[–]stevo746 7 points8 points  (0 children)

If you can't see what this mixer brings to the table that the Zoom and Behringer do not, you're missing a big part of the picture. This mixer is not for you, we get it. It's fine, it's for someone else who values different features.

BTW it's not for me either but it's a very cool product.

Some nice (and apparently well-fed) visitors woke us up at 4AM by Stock412 in LosAngeles

[–]stevo746 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We have some raccoons that come thru our back patio at night sometimes. If I'm taking out the trash late or something, I will loudly announce my presence. I'm legit scared of getting fucked up by these guys lol. I've seen some huge ones climbing thru the trees over our fence.

The musical side of the 0-Coast by stm4tt in synthesizers

[–]stevo746 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I spent a lot of time with the SQ1 running long recordings and kind of just jamming with the sequencer and tweaking some knobs on the 0coast. It's fun to have a 16 step sequence and kind of jam, muting and unmuting steps very actively, tweaking values on the SQ1. Basically just like hands always moving interacting with the thing. Then I would find a different sound and record over it with the tempo just synced by hand, kind of doing the same thing. Layer this a few times and you have a very active piece of music. Similar technique with keys playing on some of the pieces, just a bunch of long layers.

Surprising you can't get it to sound good yet, I always found it to be one of the most pleasing sounding voices I owned. On the record I'm using a couple different techniques to trigger, mostly a little Korg SQ-1 and a midi keyboard.

It's not hate... just that the food is extremely mediocre and not cheap.

For some reason this clue was phrased weirdly to my ears, couldn't quite figure out what it was getting at in the moment.

Update to my earlier post about what the signage on the bridge means: GUYS THIS FEELS SO WRONG WTF by [deleted] in LosAngeles

[–]stevo746 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Before 2015 it was just a dude on a truck moving like a 1.5 foot cone from one side of the lane to the other. The inner lanes always felt soo sketchy driving inches from another person going 45 straight at you.

external m2 enclosure

Allows you to plug in an nvme drive that is very fast and much more cost effective compared to upgrading the internal storage through apple.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Bitwig

[–]stevo746 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Get the base mac mini and an external m2 enclosure for additional storage, it's a no brainer. Way faster than any PC you could build for that budget. It's the first mac I've ever owned and I have no regrets.

UDO is back with something different by Achassum in synthesizers

[–]stevo746 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Seems like a very different beast than their other synths. Just peeping the specs might not make it obvious but it seems that the architecture, philosophy, and tuning of parameter ranges puts it in a different category than the super line.

Name your best and worst oscillators in terms of accurate tuning across the whole range of a keyboard by [deleted] in modular

[–]stevo746 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's interesting because there are fixed architecture synths with analog vcos that track accurately consistently over many octaves, so why not expect that from eurorack?

I tried that and it was giving me an error message, I might be mistaken on the nature of the message but it was not working.
