How many is that.......3 or 4 used BMW????
A lifetime supply of girlfriend repellant.
due to covid, they take a bit of time to answer emails, but i think stewart mckinsey there could help you out if you email them.
so much this for pretty much every demo everywhere. clean and strong whole notes, each string. letting me hear note decay would be nice.
i know everyone bags on the nord descriptions. eh, doesn't bother me.
i've had too much screen time of late . . . that new makenoise strega has gotten my attention. like i need another money pit/obsession.
ugh
ugh
Actually my son went through a period last year where he was obsessed with dubstep so I’m well aware of dubstep. Brostep I should have known.Skrillex = brostep
Burial, Kode9 = Dubstep
Skrillex is not good IMHO.
I already have plenty of that. Ever since the my first bass
don't you have four kids?
3.
I’m still in disbelief on how that happened.
lol

I have it too. It's called "my face".

Alcohol is a hell of a drug.
Just read the first word of my user name.
(It's probably the dumbest lamest user name on this whole forum)
Congratulations?
Once asked to change it when I first joined the forum but its against the "rules".
So...
I said %##&# it.
Patching idea for today.
Nothing magical about the clip, but still thought I'd share. The video doesn't capture the stereo panning that's happening. The idea was to patch the Octasource to the VCA to use it for a modulated volume pattern, then play with the delay settings until a pattern evolved. I wish my fingers could hit/release the "Hold" button on a beat so I could capture a loop in the delay module, but my coordination needs work.

I guess I’m lucky that my wife says she likes my synth explorations. I think she just says that so I’ll unhandcuff her
You know the joke: to determine who is man's best friend, lock your wife and your dog in the trunk of your car for an hour. When you open the trunk, which one do you think is happy to see you?
(Okay so maybe it's just my face that is an effective girlfriend repellant.)
To this day I remain astonished -- like, seriously gobsmacked -- that my wife will say stuff like "I love bass players! Their parts are always the sexiest!".
Like, seriously?!?! Oh, wait...you married me. Okay. :::shrugs:::
otoh, she's usually referring to my funk throwdowns, not my ambient/post-rock/textural playing, so...
Yeah bass is only cool in funk and soul. Unfortunately I am profoundly unfunky and I don’t believe in the supernatural.
MY daughter apparently heard me snoring the other night and asked my wife if I was playing my bass. Uhhhh
bass players being “chick magnets,” reminds me of this:
i was going on the road with a mid-level rock of the 80s star.
my wife was all worried about the “girls who were gonna be checking me out.”
(uh huh, yeah. lol)
anywho, i say, “remember when we saw joan armatrading? remember the bass player?”
her: “no.”
me: “that’s right.”
