  1. What did you GAS a bit over and it ended up amazing? I've been wishing to learn Max for 2 decades, dreaded the learning curve and now that I've dived in (with v8.3) I'm astounded by its ergonomics and pedagogical value. Not to mention the possibilities. Needless to say though that I know now exactly what I want to do with it (a algorithmic / generative sequencer), which obviously makes a world of difference.

    What did you GAS hard over and it ended up a major disappointment? Each and every hardware synths I've bought, without any exception. I'm a software guy.

    What do you regret selling? Nothing I guess.

  2. 100% PureData with 100% custom built... everything (from sequencers to sound generators and processors) . Depending on the project either full raw generative (Computer Series), curated generative (Violynt Tropiqs) or a mix of algorithmic / generative / more traditional workflows (hArm0nii tandD3m). Beating the Odds was first generated algorithmically then heavily edited IIRC.

    Absolutely fascinating and diverse creative process, and outstandingly musical result. I hope we'll get to release countless Synalegg records via 3OP, and that I'll be lucky enough to master whatever he asks me to (his mixdowns sound fantastic already, pure bliss to engineer these).

    If you haven't already, I urge you to listen to CS, VT and ht as a whole, it's a marvelous ride.

    this show is incredibly ridiculous (just check the cast) but it's pretty hilarious. not sure i'd say go sign up to apple+ for it, but i'd say check it out if you've already got the service. 

    I'll give it a try, I've yet to find a good comedy on Apple TV (I like Loot as I love Maya Rudolph, but still). Haven't watched Ted Lasso yet though. The service's totally worth it for Severance, For all mankind and Foundation IMO.

  4. everything 3OP, obviously
    Synalegg - Vyolynt Tropiqs / hArm0nii tanD3m
    Othello Aubern - Pace Serpente
    Gabor Lazar - Boundary Objects
    William Fields - Fire

    I still have loads of recently released records to listen to (Caterina Barbieri, Kode 9, Kuedo...)

    Just binged all three seasons of "The Leftovers".

    Holy fugg that show was depressing.  Of course i watched it during a low point in my own personal life so it made me feel even shittier lolol.  Not a bad show i'd recommend it to any fans of sci-fi or Lost - just get ready to feel overcome with sadness and emptiness for a while.

    It can be brutal at times (especially the first season, from memory) but it's a fav of mine. Still, I don't know when I'll watch it again (it's been years).

    Oh ! Now that’s quite interesting and makes that remaster pretty appealing to me…
    Now I need Empty the bones of you remastered the same way. It’s always been my fav Clark album.

  7. VCV Rack can be great if you select a handful of modules. I bought Rack 2 for the MI and Instruo modules alone. Otherwise it's easy to be lost / overwhelmed by the countless options.

    WRT Bazille, which is certainly my most used synth, I love the Gearporn UI.

  8. I beta test for various developers so I might be super biased. I've also bought way too many. Are we discussing soft synths or FX ?

    re:Vital: it slays Serum (which sounds so freaking bad, always metallic whatever you do with it). Hive 2's still my fav wavetable based synth around.

    I agree with the everything u-he statement, their synths are heads and shoulders above the competition IMO, in terms of sonics, ergonomics and ethics. Can't wait for Zebra 3.

  9. Lovely mixer you’re selling, somehow similar to the small Studer / Revox I’ve always drooled for.

    Quality ADC + a selection of great outboard seems the wisest choice indeed.

    I’m an ITB guy, but I’d happily make room for a Synthi hehe. The raw tone is sublime.
