Stoner/Doom Bassists Thread, Part 90: Maxed Out

Spent nine bucks on a Bluetooth gamepad that has a clamp to hold a smart phone. Downloaded emulators and ROM packs, instant portable retro gaming machine.

I'll need reports when you get into it and recommended Roms. I bought that controller too a while back, but ended up getting an iPhone. I could get an old android phone free though and just use for wifi based stuff and retro games.

Settings - nothing subtle going on, haha. The mid selector knob fell off, it's set at 2. I love the graphic eq on this thing, you can dial in pretty much whatever you want.

Max, you may have some supersonic oscillation going on in your amp. It happens sometimes, feedback loop at a very high frequency. It could be fairly weak and not noticably effect the tone/performance of the amp. It can place undue stress on drivers, especially during extended use. I just don't think your 810 should be farting out that easily.

Maybe some of the drivers are old and kinda worn out? That can happen right, where drivers just get kinda worn out over a long period of time?

So far so good, I can play platformers now, which is really hard with the on screen controller BS. It feels solid and it has a lot of buttons. it's small enough to stuff in a carry-on when I travel.

Getting emulators and Roms is really pretty easy, you sometimes have to mess with the settings a bit to get it to work. The game files are tiny, so you can load up a old phone with tons of content. But yeah, find any old cheap droid phone and just use it for that, it's awesome.

If you want some more info just shoot me a message.
