my only issue is it's inability to save a state. basically, you turn the dial to the right, it generates randomness. turn it left and it loops that state, from there you can adjust the switches and length. but if you bring the dial to the right, you lose the entire sequence and it generates more randomness. lets say you get an idea going and it's 4am. you want to power down and record it tomorrow, you cannot. so as much fun as it is i prefer the opp ned for the duties i've set out on. it's worth it, but important to realize this. for some this may not matter. but my idea is using it as a bassline seq. what i love is the ideas it spits out, so it's making these two melodic and bassline voices go, in key w/one another. w/opp ned, you're able to generate a sick arpeggio and decide what notes it is allowed to play and which not. only missing a slew otherwise that 8hp module is an underappreciated beast. you don't know you need an arpeggiator eurorack module til you have one. and although i haven't touched the wmd, i theoretically prefer opp ned, for its ability to dial in a set of notes extremely easily on the fly whereas the wmd has set scales. i'm mostly looking for this sound here, able to tell it to play the root, tritone, octave, so i use this for such a simple thing i want it to eat up as little hp as possible. i had fun w/gamut, but for a more permanent solution, i do believe i'll be reincorporating opp ned. i like that once the scale you build is set, you can then determine it's spread, direction, etc, and these can be modulated via cv. so, pretty much endless improvised techno fun waiting to be had, w/control over variations in a super intuitive way. power down and it'll save that state. just wish it had gate per step it outputs, but besides slew/gate i felt it was the perfect utility to get jams like this going.

oh and i haven't messed w/dixie or pizza, but i've heard good things about them. the intellijel quad vca has an amazing sound, i'm interested in messing w/their amps 6hp dual vca, or the other dual vca which is simply 1/2 of the quad. i think them and noise engineering are both in a very favorable stage of refinement at the moment.

that is the photo of you i've ever seen

having worked w/lex as my manager and sam a co-worker at newbury, i can safely say he isn't even a fraction of the monster he's been portrayed as. a sarcastic, witty, facetious bastard? absolutely. do people get into drugs as a result of abusive upbringing and misdirect their hostility when intoxicated? yes. do people grow and has he for several years been doing everything in his power to evolve into a sober, wholesome and optimal version of himself for the selfless sake of his kids? yup. is he a good person underneath? without a doubt. they don't deserve what they're going thru. the person who initiated it, it isn't her first rodeo. it's sad some people will go out of their way to destroy a person they once loved in a selfish pursuit of elevating their own name. it's trending, it's the empty calories of popularity. find a catalyst, blame your entire life on a few negative aspects of their behaviour, get a key to the city. this is coming from me, wearing a ring that says feminist as fuck, me who had to convince my ex to file a report when she was d r u g g e d and r a p e d, me a person who's experienced a wide array of abuse in my upbringing and carrying into later years. me, a non/flamboyant but feminine as hell dude who thinks there's a lot wrong w/the male population. me, a fucking empath who couldn't fathom the notion of inserting myself into any woman who's body i haven't made oral love to and isn't begging for me inside her... just how i'm wired and a testimony to the notion that i find r a p e disgusting and cannot comprehend how anyone could enjoy that. in other words the things being said about him are severely exaggerated and those in support against him love to pride themselves on being all about loving all people equally, yet won't consider the mental abuse my homie is suffering. it particularly pisses me off knowing just how fucking hard it is to rise to that level beginning in providence having everything imaginable working against them. people are drawn to the most convenient truth. a young woman i worked with at another record shop recently was all appalled when i played a manson album. i brought up the fact that one of the five original accusers went on live radio for over an hour explaining in detail that the entire thing was a hoax designed by the main accuser. she wasted no time and blurted out something about how "they paid her to say it" an absolutely ridiculous and baseless presumption. i later mentioned how melanie martinez was accused by a girl on the internet of r a p e, wasting no time again she told me "the girl later said it wasn't true". side note: i believe melanie martinez and marilyn manson are both innocent easy targets. it's about ulterior motives, as no amount of healing from alleged traumas would be achieved thru ruining someone's music career. additionally, on a more positive note: back a bunch if yrs ago, i rehearsed w/the band to play keys on unattractive portable head at their reunion show, after nick came to my studio and taught me the arrangement, and we built synth voices for it. but plans changed last min and lex dislocated his arm into the second song. eddie from an albatross took over vocals. i randomly met their band in florida one night when i missed my plane then ended up moving to philadelphia where they're from, hahah. hopefully you were able to catch them live. there's nothing like their live sets. finally have all four LP's and looking for the cassettes and self titled EP pre canada songs. they deserve everything they worked for. they paved the way for so many other artists including the one turning against them. glad to see someone else of a similar school of thought. as they say in the YWGWYW streets: "here's to celebrity fulfillment!"

hell yes. happy to share the discoveries. if i tap into a thing then i want to know others can use it and put their own spin on it. maybe i'll hear it without knowing later. no need to gatekeep, even i cannot replicate what happened here. it's eurorack and has a mind of its own; the patch rarely ever is quite the same the next day if powered down. your ears hear it different and your gain structure gets disoriented, etc. no two takes are the same, so we might as well patch and tweak and share🤘🏼#sharingiscaring

it's addicting, be warned you won't want to stop :D

thank you🤘🏼much more over at @lovedeathdisco on IG for now. gotta spend a day and upload a shitload of vids to youtube soon.

thanks!

much appreciation! yeah, lifelong inspiration of mine. the urge to do so spawned out of the blue. it's a learning experience to build a cover, a small window into the way an artists method of approach.
