Haha that’s funny. I actually recently got a license for Renoise over Christmas, and dipping into some tracker shtuff. I’ve used Renoise some, but never had a license so couldn’t render to file, but I have used Sunvox in the past, which is a free program.
The Hardware Megathread
This is pretty much Waldorf Nave +++++++ with a keyboard, I’m impressed.
Not by the kaos engine thing, but by everything else
You should have listened to me and kept it, but o, you knew better, this wasn’t for you…
Saw that one. The demo sounds on KORG’s page are rather “meh” though. Will have to see people playing with it/some reviews to get a better idea of what it can do, probably.
im sayin… if they ad P-Locks like they have on the tiny but mighty volca Drum they’ll have a winner.
Yo Korg is on fire this year!
I guess really they have been for a few years. I wish they would replace the electribes with a proper groove box tho now!
I keep going another way than Korg with my gear purchases but I do really have to hand it to them. I want to see how close they get to a proper Electribe reboot with the Drumlogue. edit: well ok not a proper reboot but something that scratches that itch.
thought id post here not hardware related but so you can see what kind of an odd ball i am.
In the 90’s i bought alot of vinyl and some i left with the shrink wrap sealed, today any modern vinyl record i buy if it turns up shrink wrapped i dont open it, i want somebody else to open them when i’m gone.
Anyway the new “Bicep - isles” album was released today, i ordered the vinyl sometime ago off the Ninja Tune website, they sent me an email today that they have just posted it, i’m kinda disappointed as i thought it would arrive on the day of release (like you see with those dudes who order xbox games)
So i’ve sent Ninja Tune an email today complaining that i thought they would of emailed me a download code on the day of release, could they email a download code as putting a download code inside my vinyl sleeve is of no use to me as i don’t open my records.
sorry for my little rant, i’m kinda classing vinyl as hardware
Why don’t you open your records? Seems like a total waste to me, honestly. Frankly, people will probably not care about your music when you’re gone and especially if, hopefully, you live a very long life, as it will be very vintage by then/“old fuck music” (unless they’re your kids, maybe, but by then you’d assume they know what you like, it would not exactly come to them as a surprise).
BTW, keeping the shrink on is not a good idea - in the long run, the plastic can stick to the cover and damage it, especially if you live in a warm or humid place.
I hate it when I buy vinyl on Discogs and the guy’s telling me “still in shrink!” as a selling point. It has the exact opposite effect on me… Plus, some records are “re-shrinked” to pretend they’re new, so the seller asks for 5x what they’re worth. Nothing like buying a “new, shrink-wrapped” album and seeing finger prints or hair on the cover when you remove it… uuurgh
Fun fact: I got a Skinny Puppy vinyl yesterday and the seller put it between two old records to make sure no corners would be bent. So I have two Capitol compilations, one from February 1963 and the other from April 1964 (or the contrary). I was thinking that, in they heyday, some people would have killed to have them. Now they’re worth shit - literally became book ends. Time is a funny thing.
