The Hardware Megathread

Just casually waiting for my ban, now.

You’re forgiven for various reasons:

  • Eurovision is on TV;
  • I have a giant spread of cheeses in front of me;
  • I’m too tipsy to actually do anything anything remotely technical.

May my lack of action hurt you more than a ban.

Lolol it’s spreading. This is an awful violet red color though :stuck_out_tongue:

I think I may have an addiction.

On a whim, I stopped by a pawn shop on the way back from Walgreens.

… I put money down on a pair of Sterling Audio MX3’s and a 1st gen Axiom 49 (I already have a 1st gen Axiom25 and an Axiom Air Mini 32 plus a pair of Mackie CR3’s). I almost paid for them outright but I managed to restrain myself from doing it.

How does it handle long audio tracks?

Also, my Force’s has way more purple.

I haven’t tried but I don’t think that’s a thing for Maschine at all? Though in theory I could cobble up a Reaktor sample player or a kontakt library for that.

Synthlord. So you’re saying you could have left my name alone and just put Purple Apocalypse next to it.

When I was at Guitar Center picking up some cables and strings they had a used Force for $800 or something…

I don’t mind the purple as a colour. I just can’t effin read it!

what is Elektron’s deal with using 3.5 ×1.35 mm barrel plugs >_> though the battery jack on the Cycles is 5.5x2.5mm… they use the 3.5x1.35 on the OverHub, too (and obviously Samples). Though Ripcord makes a cable anyway, my other battery pack can do 9V and it takes 4-10V on that plug.

I think I should run the 50%+ CPU demo song on the Maschine+ and see how long my battery lasts.

I begrudgingly fixed it.

In theory there will be a sort of official power-pack/handle for the Cycles, but it hasn’t materialised in a while…

yeah I saw that back when these came out. I’m sure they’ll blame COVID :eyes:

I feel like I am the only one that doesn’t care about taking their gear out of the house to use. Like…I don’t need to take my Digitakt camping…I’m there to be outside, phone off, cooking food I normally don’t, joking around with friends etc.

Cool that other people want that. Just has never been something on my radar.

I went to a museum yesterday. Need a dispute settled?

I don’t think I’d take it camping, as I like to backpack light. Though something inexpensive like the Model line wouldn’t be a bad idea in case something happens. I do like to get out into nature, though, and do things, just not when it’s overnight like you’re talking about. At that point my phone is relegated to camera status.

Down by the local pond with a folding chair on a day that isn’t sweltering? Sign me up for that, though.

love my new “title” XD
