Very cool! Glad to hear it. I've always imagined I'd move on to a FreshRoast after my popper kicks the bucket (or when I get tired of it), but, I'll do a little more research on this one too. Looks relatively affordable for the feature set.
How dare you have an opinion when asked for one. Have some downvotes! /s
Ooh nice. I still use a popcorn popper, and no bean probe or nothin', but I like my results well enough. But I see something like this in my future because I like nerding on this stuff. I agree with almar, how's it taste? Have you been having good results with the Skywalker?
Heck, 10 minutes past Portland city limits and it's Dodge Rams and Trump flags.
shouldn't it say "Florida man guns down..."?
The Gold Bug Variations is one of my favorite music-themed books.
awesome, welcome to the obsession! :) as others have noted, it never ends. "I gotta get sub-1-minute!" ... "I gotta get sub-50!" ... "I gotta get sub-30!".... etc. I definitely have to remind myself to enjoy it some days.
Totally! It sounds amazing in the demos online. I'm just trying to figure out if it can knock 1 or 2 pedals off my board. I might just pull the trigger and find out for myself.
Does anyone here own one? I have questions! Kind of lusting for one, but, I need to know a little more about the functionality of selecting and combining patches (and people on youtube seem to only go through the sounds). Thanks!
So nice! Those happy lighting accidents are the best. Well captured!
the hardest I laughed today, thank you.
Lol! It's so good though! I'm sure I'll have another fling with it before long.
If you're feeling it, go for it. I do these things from time to time. I went from a tube amp to a nice solid state, thought I'd regret it but haven't at all. I once sold all my hardware synths and bought Ableton and some nice VST synths, and did not regret it. A few years later I started collecting hardware synths again (there are some great affordable ones now that didn't exist before). I once sold all my delay, reverb, chorus, and dirt pedals (including a rams muff!) and got a couple of big Boss pedals that model all that stuff. Thought I might regret it, but I love it, and I can always go back. It's fun changing things up and getting a creativity boost. Enjoy! (btw I've never had a Helix, but hear great things.)
I'll never see Heironymous Bosch (did I get it right?) without thinking Hiroshima Borscht now, thank you
Hey, what's up. I've been trying to get my phone (oneplus 8) all perfect again, after I recently decided not to use fingerprint security anymore. I now use a password, which feels right, but when I'm just sitting at my desk it feels like overkill to have to retype it so many times when I'm just checking little things. So.. I'm trying one of those pretend-screen-off apps (Blackr) with which I can "turn off" the screen with a quick press, for the times when I want my screen off, but don't need full security (like, I'm not leaving my desk, cops aren't breaking down my door, etc.). Then I just double-tap the screen to turn the screen back on. If I want security, I use the actual power button to turn the screen off, and then when I open it back up it asks for my password as usual.
Anyway! I've been trying this for a day or so, and.. it just seems like my battery is draining faster. I think. Is it? I can't be sure, and I know the answer is to do some rigorous scientific testing, but I ain't got time... I knew someone(s) out here has been through the same thing and has the answer, so... anybody know? :)
Thank you!!
Hi! My less-than-10-year-old has their own iPad (registered under my apple id) and wants to be able to "text" with the rest of the family. Most of us are not Apple people though: Android phones, using some combo of SMS, Discord, and Signal. The little one doesn't have a phone, so I think that prevents us from signing them up for Signal. I could probably install Discord on the iPad, though it doesn't feel ideal. They use iMessage (or whatever it's called) to text a couple other friends/grandma/etc who also have Apple stuff, but what should we use for our mostly-non-Apple family that wouldn't require a phone number?
An internet search pointed me to WhatsApp, Telegram, Viber.... stuff I've never used but it seems popular. Facebook Messenger also, but screw that. Google Chat/Hangouts (or whatever it's called now) is another option, which would require creating a google account.
If nothing else appeals to me we'll probably go the Discord route, and I'll just have to be clear, don't join random servers :) But, anybody out there use WhatsApp with your kid, and does it not require a phone number? I'm open to other ideas! Thank you...
Howdy! Here is my current signal chain, starting from either a Strat (2001 American deluxe) or an Ibanez Artcore AS-73.. ...micro Q-Tron > Phase 90 > sf300 (painted by my kid) > OD-200 > Signa Comp > e-lady > polytune > dd-500 > rv-500 > rc-1 > jc-40
I'm still playing with the e-lady position. And I'm still trying to find the best use for the volume pedal. Currently it's hooked up as an expression pedal for the dd-500, but.. I find myself never using it. I originally thought I'd use it for volume swells but I never used that either... Maybe not worth the real estate? Also, still playing with using sf-300 mostly as a boost, or mostly as fuzz... Never ending!
Edit: still trying to get the pic to post from this mobile app...
This is a great read. It clarified some stuff for me on non-duality, and dare I say that the instructions (on "the mental move") are effective.
