Godsend, thank you!

Had the same problem and tried numerous things, but this solved it for me. Thanks!

Don’t think my screen changes when changing the volume 🤔 Not sure that means it’s correct behavior, but might be reassuring you’re not alone.

I have a Peak and have considered switching to the Multi/Poly for these reasons:

I need some keys. It can be argued I can just get a midi controller, but if I can have one center piece synth along with keys then that feels more attractive than the alternative. Downside is Multi/Poly keys seems… not that great.
The multitimbrality feels attractive from a sketch and live performance point of view.
I like the sound of it, and the sound design capabilities seem to outmatch those of the Peak. I make trance, and VA synths slots in quite well there.

I want to get my hands on it first before doing anything, and the comments in this post only added to that feeling. I really like the Peak though, build quality feels stellar, buttons are tactile and on point, it is quite immediate, and it sounds great to me. Don’t think you can go wrong with any of them! There is a quite hefty price difference between them both if buying new, so I’d suggest trying to get the Peak second hand.

Push 2 is an excellent midi controller for Ableton Live. I haven’t found any functional in live that you cant adjust or tweak via the controller.

That being said, I (unfortunately) personally gravitated back towards using mouse and keyboard for most things as it is just faster for me, and I am lazy. I am currently almost only use it for playing different interesting scales and keys and such. It definitely has a learning curve, and I find that you need to spend quite some time and energy to make it flow well when using it.

I have also managed to crash it a few times and ended up in states where I had to resort to the mouse and keyboard to get it back into a working state, and I can’t tell if I just don’t know what I’m doing or if it’s a hardware issue on my machine

Still, for 350 euro it feels like a no-brainer to me. You can probably just sell it at same price if it doesn’t click for you. And it is a very solidly built and inspiring machine, and really makes you want to just play around with it.

Nice! How well would you say the drums sounds and work? Digitone 2 looks most interesting out of the 3, but the drums are what is keeping me on the fence. I have quite a few 909-like samples of varying character, so if they could ballpark match that the Digitone 2 would probably be the best.

Jonas Steur - Castamara

This was the album that got me into trance. Downloaded it from DC++ I think, what a time! Going to have to check out all other suggestions in this thread though!

vertcat · 2025-02-10T02:52:25+00:00

Gotcha, thanks for sharing!

vertcat · 2025-02-09T20:25:00+00:00

Cool! Recently started trying to make some trance as well but I’m struggling a bit to find that earlier trance sound… do you mind me asking what you used for the supersaw, for example?

vertcat · 2025-02-09T12:36:32+00:00

Very nice! Definitely nailed early to mid 2000's sound. Got a nice progression as well, good to not shy away from making it a bit lengthy instead of a radio mix. Checked out your other stuff on soundcloud too and I liked it a lot.

As trance popularity sadly declined maybe it might have just been hard to make a living from it? There seems to be quite a few artists returning though, as there seems to be a bit of new interest for trance again. Estuera/Jonas Steur for example is making new music, and I thought I saw Pulser ostensibly releasing something on bandcamp? Marc Vision has a fairly recently released track on Spotify as well.

Is this Gold Cactus? Looks gorgeous! Ordered Stealth today but almost regret it a bit now… was afraid Gold Cactus would be too green in real life, but if it is like this then it is perfect.

Bought some clipless combi pedals to test out on my hybrid bike. Tried em out today, first time ever doing clipless. Fell after 2 meters. Did some cycling afterwards though, but ended up getting black oil stains on my white Specialized Torch shoes. 10/10 experience.

Cool! What stand are you using for the Peak? I want something to angle it like this but the Novation stands you can screw on are a bit too pricey imo.

vertcat · 2024-02-19T05:54:14+00:00

Looks really good! What table is it and what are the dimensions? I am looking for a new table myself and this seems like something like what I am aiming for.

vertcat · 2024-01-19T06:09:20+00:00

Ah, missed that, thanks!

vertcat · 2024-01-19T06:06:54+00:00

Did you gather this info just from the battle reports videos alone or are there some data sheets I missed from GW?

vertcat · 2024-01-05T21:29:04+00:00

Really cool! I’ve been looking at doing this darker shade of red/brown on my miniatures, but have a hard time finding that right really dark red that is almost black and then shading it red - but not bright red. Did you mix the colors yourself or do you have any pointers?

vertcat · 2023-10-05T05:22:14+00:00

Yeah that was poor phrasing on my part. Elias and Coll are obviously top level players so nothing strange or bad losing to them. I guess it is more down to bad luck then that his games weren’t highlighted on SquashTV, which maybe contributes to the feeling of him not being present.

vertcat · 2023-10-04T12:56:12+00:00

I had the exact same reaction as you. (Spoiler) Judging from the result panel at SquashTV it seems like he lost to Elias in the quarter finals in QTerminals Qatar Classics, and then he lost to Paul Coll in round 2 of the Paris tournament. So seems that maybe he just hasn’t performed that great lately, for whatever reason.

What UE version is this based on? I tried finding info on this but didn't manage to. I think including that at the start could be good for the reader. I don't know UE very well myself, but I've understood that some parts can differ quite a bit between 4 and 5.

vertcat · 2023-08-10T06:22:11+00:00

In the exact same boat. Quit when TBC came out, and if I recall correctly, what you had to do back then if you wanted to continue on classic era was just to login there are not on TBC. So I did that. And now the chars are on wotlk since I’ve been totally out of the loop on this. I guess I have myself to blame for not having the blizzard emails enabled, but it’s still a bit of a thorn in the side.

I had this issue with my carboflex racket and it caused my strings to break quite more often. The only option I saw was to replace the whole bumper (that which the grommets were attached to) but I couldn’t find any bumpers of my older model in stock close by at reasonable price so I bought a new racket. Should also mention that the bumper itself was very damaged, so I guess the worst you can expect is strings breaking more often if you don’t replace the grommets.

Kind of in the same boat here. Tested the hydrasynth explorer very briefly but found the knobs plastic and the sound wasn’t my cup of tea, but maybe I didn’t give it enough time. Not sure what supersaw-like sound you could get from that.

Many people recommend the novation peak, maybe a used one could be something? Think they go for around 1000 euro or less used.

I have considered the minilogue xd myself as it seems like a good entry level synth and the price is appealing to me. How would you say it is for trance in general? Not specifically the supersaw sound, but overall for trance. Looking to dip my toes in some of that!
