Alright I’m not the biggest Behringer fan, but I thought I’d share this with those of you who are:

Compassion? What the hell does that have to do with anything? You're just being emotionally manipulative. Please fuck off with that nonsense.

Saw them on this tour, though not this particular date. (New Porcupine Tree Live recording from 2008, Indigo2) https://porcupinetreeofficial.bandcamp.com/album/indigo2-2008

I started setting up Foobar2000, and there’s actually a step for synchronizing your collection. TuneFUsion (or FTP, lollers). I already have foobar2000 set up, so it’s a no-brainer for me how I’m going to do it. You can also drop the files in the foobar2000 folder or your iPod folder. Does she have an app called “iTunes Store”?

If she can get it to the phone (worst case, WeTransfer, LOL), then I recommend foobar2000 for playing.

I use Tidal on my iPad all the time, and I do indeed select "download for offline listening" all the time, she can do that with both albums and playlists. Do you have a Tidal family plan or whatever it is, that includes Claire? I do that all the time -- purchase via Bandcamp (just to support the artist directly), but then listen via Tidal (because it's easier, and I do most of my listening via Tidal all the time). That said, Love is the King doesn't appear to be on Tidal yet, so...never mind. Sorry. I have Cubasis, so when I try to open an mp3, it tries to open in Cubasis, so I should probably just stop talking. Oh, look, there's a foobar2000 app. That's what I am doing.

Today’s Tacocat update: She stopped hiding after about 24 hours and is very affectionate. She spends each time I come in her room (keeping them separated for now) unable to decide which she wants more, food or cuddling. She already lets me rub her belly!

Tasty guitar wankery

Which model? Looks like C705.

Pachinko!

Tim Henson (he's the one on the left) is crazy great. AND he utilizes his shredding skills to make music. AND he doesn't look like any other "guitar hero" while doing it just this non imposing baby fatted child in a hoodie. AND he's down to earth.

Yup, she’s a keeper. Knows a sucker/cat whisperer when she sees/smells one.

Besides, she's a scrawny little thing.

And someone is about to lose their dog. 😭 I could hear the bawling from across the parking lot. I felt so bad for them...

Oh, synthesizer modules? Never mind, found them: https://www.moogmusic.com/news/introducing-dark-series-matriarch-grandmother

No, that's her name. 😄

Tacocat

Pff...being turboskint right now. Besides, got my Prophet 6 working recently. Um...what Moog pedals?

Opeth

Two things: register it right away! They only give you 30 days. Even if you go through CostCo, you don’t want to rule that out as an option. That’s the mistake I made and vowed to never make again. Also, yes, still interested, so please do report back if things change. Decided to remain ultra frugal (or, “turboskint“) for now, but still following since I have similar priorities.

Are you a weighted keys guy or not? I grew up on the piano, but my first non-piano keyboards were typical unweighted synthesizers, so my idea of touch has more or less bifurcated. Just curious for more detail about what you liked and didn’t like. I’ve heard the term, Fatar, recommended to me.

Yum. Kinda like candy or junk food, I can’t take it all the time, but every once in a while, I do enjoy London Grammar.
