also this with an sq-1 is probably super super fun wow
i impulsively ordered a behringer crave last night, and now they go and release their 303 clone

looks like you weren’t the only impulsive one 
Instead of buying a $30 pedal, I sold my Vibroverb RI and a couple weeks ago got a Magnatone M15a, a 70lb 2x12 75-watt combo built between '65-67 that features tube-driven true-stereo pitch-modulation vibrato.
Also in prep for the ongoing hunt at tracking down an agreeable pre-CBS shortscale Fender: goodbye beautiful Jazzmaster,
hello $60 Squier Mini.

my drumbrute impact arrived yesterday
so now, inexplicably, I have a drum machine running into the octatrack with nanoloop? and I’ve freed up like 6 of my tracks for samples that aren’t percussion so I’m hoping I can find some really cool atmospheric beds or pads or whatever to add more MYSTERY to my music
I think I’m good now though? everything seems to work and I made a drum pattern on the impact way quicker than anything I’ve done on the octatrack, which is cool. I think just having to set up all the FX on each track and get the sample tuned right just took so much time away from actually arranging that I had trouble getting the song together once I was done

finally got mGB on a DMG gameboy working with the octatrack
thought I would return to my chiptune trance roots and I ended up making DMG techno instead
I have left the past behind it is gone

We are in the NAMM drive
It is annoying but I’m glad I don’t have to demo this stuff ever

One of my friends got me a Volca Modular for Christmas!?
Additive synthesis is a new beast. I have a lot of learning to do, but hopefully I come out the other end making cool Morton Subotnick-y stuff.

looks awesome! affordable mpc standalone is something that I’ve been interested in since the Live so it’s cool to see
new launchpad pro being a standalone sequencer is incredibly cool, but only having 4 tracks puts it just barely beyond usable for me
I guess the idea is that you’re going to be using the sequencer on whatever drum machine you’re running but my weird obsession with do it all sequencers makes me want it to have at least a drum sequencer in addition to the melodic ones

I got a ‘65 L-series Mustang. Spent the past couple days dis- and re-assembling, cleaning out all the precious rust debris and hand oil schmutz from holes/crevices, tightening nuts, loosening stuck bolts, etc. Figuring out what the deal with the vibrato is. Huge gouges in the fretboard in the cowboy chord zone, along with big ole’ buzztastic dents in the nearly-flat frets - will need some new ones eventually, but for now, after neck relief screwin’ and feeler-gauge string height measurin’ and nut slot filin’, will just enjoy the character.

ugh why is midi to cv so difficult why are all the converters more than a hundred bucks
what’s the difference between cv/gate and analog sync
blah
fun fact you can replicate analog sync fairly easily by recording a measure’s worth of a sync out
i think this works with roland trig signals too but i haven’t had a source for a while so i can’t confirm
cv isn’t so easy unfortunately
unfortunately the thing I need to get in time only works with CV trig/gate stuff and analog sync doesn’t seem to work on it
wanted to swap in a different reverb pedal for the zoia but the problem is that the zoia is the only device in my chain capable of actually converting MIDI -> CV so it’s super valuable but also kind of overkill
I guess the actual solution is just to make a better reverb patch on the zoia but I’ve been lazy 
played with the nts-1 for a few minutes last night and got worried that I wouldn’t be able to get an envelope on the filter because I couldn’t find the option
today I found it and holy shit
I love this little thing
it just sounds so fucking good! the REVERBS, holy shit
every oscillator type is good
I cannot believe there is so much sound coming from this thing it’s amazing
aw man it has reverb? gdi guess i’m keeping an eye out
the reverbs are fantastic! it would be worth having just as an effects unit
