Get off my LAWN! "Grumpy Old Farts"

For those who loved the sound of cassettes, by coincidence I get this in the mail today. They have a plugin that emulates all the foibles of a cassette deck! They are giving it away for free for a limited time at Focusrite.

PLUG-IN COLLECTIVE: DAW CASSETTE | Focusrite

Can it emulate the cassette jamming and the deck wrapping the tape around the capstan then the delay in playing while you cuss and dig the tape out of the mechanism, then more cussing while you try to rewind it then notice it's twisted requiring you to pull the tape out and rewind again then more cussing as the wrinkled tape goes past the heads? Not that I have a problem with that.

Does it come with a digital one of these, for "maintenance"?

I actually have a digital pencil.

I got the app, it does work but I don't know if I like the result. I see it as maybe useful for an effect on a track. Not something that you'd want to overuse. But what can I expect out of a $40 app.

My problem is, I'm an appaholic.

That happens in a virtual way every time I use DAW. No cussing though.
 
Sorry 'bout that....I can see it fine....:roflmao:

I'm waiting for the 8 track plugin that changes tracks right in the middle of In a Gadda Da Vida
 
Got a pair of Beyerdynamic DT 770's on one truck and a pair of stands for them on another truck. They're already 2 days late. Two feet of snow can do that. But the 770's? They were out for delivery yesterday, but the dude had too much stuff on the truck. I was following him on the map. He was walking distance away for a couple of hours, but ran out of time and drove right past my place on his way back to the depot. They must quit delivering at 10pm.
 
I've only played one gig since last March, it was at an empty club about a month ago and was shown on Zoom I believe. The club hired my three piece blues band for every Friday in February a few days ago. Then we found out yesterday that the country is on extreme alert and they're closing a lot of places and the gig's out and we now have another curfew from 7pm to 4am every night. I don't like it but I agree that we have to do some drastic things to hopefully stem the tide of this pandemic so I'm not angry or anything but damn, I REALLY wanted to play. It is in effect from Jan 31 to Feb 15 but mostly likely they will keep extending it. We were pretty much locked down from March until November last year. There have been a lot of problems here, mostly to do with lack of money and hospital space.

The DT770's are comfortable.

Is that two headphone sets and two stands or a single pair of headphones and two stands?
