th-cam.com/video/wIJuQqYhx-E/w-d-xo.html - Hey Benn - regarding Room Tuning, I see you're going to be using Soundworks. An excellent choice, especially with the Calibrated Acoustic Mic,. Have you considered using Room EQ Wizard as an intermediate/ Control Step to measure the Absorption without any Electronic Room Correction? 🤔

MPEG ¿?

What's with all the politicking before the show? Well to each their own.

[@MonadTransformer]

People who aren't 100% aligned with your extreme leftist views are not "fucking bigots" Benn.
Gosh I just wanted to watch a podcast about a new synth. Why does it have to start with the leftist politics?
Why can't a company just focus on building the goddamn tractors again?

[@christopherbrown6732]

Is he really an extreme leftist lol. What did he say here that is an extreme leftist view?

[@MonadTransformer]

@christopherbrown6732 yes, yes he is.
It's not normal for the for-profit companies to have a "DEI" department and count the skin colors and genders of their employees. You're not a "fucking bigot" if you don't like being "appreciated" for your skin color and gender and sexual orientation only.
It's not normal for companies to have "climate goals". Climate change is a natural phenomenon, and no, it's not affecting anyone because it's extremely subtle, and no, you're not a "fucking bigot" if you prefer the companies to focus on the actual business and not on the current Democratic party agenda.
The very use of the phrase "fucking bigot" in this context immediately tells you that you're dealing with extreme partisanship.
I'm not even a Republican, I don't support Trump or anything, I dislike "the other side" partisanship equally, I'm just a regular person who came to the US from the outside and I'm seriously freaking out how everyone on the left is promoting certain cargo cult practices while being so exclusionary of anything that challenges them.
That said, I don't really believe this particular tractor company stopped with the pandering, they just chose to pander to "the other side". Which is pitiful. Just fix your company silently, I don't have to hear about it.
And I certainly wasn't expecting to hear this "news" from a music channel...

​@christopherbrown6732 I tried to answer, but my comment didn't show up. Maybe didn't pass the TH-cam censorship. So now you'll have to guess on your own :-/

[@MonadTransformer]

... the stream itself is good though. And with the plugin developer himself in the chat, wow.
