If it's younger males we're advocating for, can I recommend Sophie Turner and Joe Jonas' halloween costumes as a point in the Addams Family's favor?

I recognize many of your memories are from the shows, which were well into syndication by the time i got to them, but for me the Addams Family was the 1991 movie. While I recognize this may be seen as heresy, can you fault me for preferring Anjelica Huston?

This is lighting up a lot of "Best Of" lists lately, and for good reason. Approachable, delicately produced, and some blazing lyrics out of a clean little voice. Phoebe Bridgers - Punisher

That entire setup is otherworldly cool. I would be jealous if anyone else had it, but I like you so much it just makes me happy to think of you enjoying what is almost certainly the best source gear available to man.

Sad to hear it, Adam. My bugs have been few and far between, and the quality of the content is too good for me to turn away. I have 31 hours into the game now, which is riding the line between "I'm glad you enjoy your new game" and "hey, are you alright"? I love my wife, but she doesn't get me like Judy Alvarez does.

I feel for folks playing it on last-gen consoles and having a bad time, but on my 2080 it’s going great. Brent has a saying for this...

Quote: “I’ve been using over-ear headphones daily for around 16 years now, and every single pair I’ve used have come with a case that covers their entirety.” Yeah? Do you carry the box around? What shitty headphones are you buying?

You should try letting someone else drive you, Steve. You might like it.

Glory, glory, hallelujah. Frankly much higher than I was expecting.

Much appreciated. I like my AirPods Pro a great deal, but largely because they’re small enough to just always have on my person. I sometimes go three days without putting on shoes lately, so my need for “mobile” headphones is not high.

^^ Well, that's some bullshit. Why do I bother living in the future?

This was a great suggestion, Steve. I spent a few blissful hours twiddling knobs on VCV rack tonight and designing monosynths. Tomorrow’s project is figuring out how to wire it into Ableton and sync the clock so I can actually make some music and not just play basslines.

Especially if you're playing back a lot of R2R tapes

Yes, this is what I'm here for.

Nothing says *extreme* like uberamp!

If you like Electrocompaniet but don’t find their name Nordic enough, there’s always these guys: http://abrahamsenaudio.com/

I’m itching to put some modules in a skiff and spend some more money making music I’m not satisfied with. Anyone here into modular?

Weirdly, to get TB2 running to my Presonus Quantum the Apple TB3 to TB2 adapter was a non-starter. The dongle cognoscenti informed me StarTec has the preferred solution, and it works a treat.

Is that an alive snake?

Really disappointing product from Behringer. I have a Behringer Pro-1, and justified it to myself by both deeply wanting the sound of the real Sequential Pro-1, and not wanting to find myself on the banks of Lake Chad or whatever with a busted OOP synth no one on the continent could service. For $300, it was an easy decision, and since the original was long since out of production I felt it was hardly a straight line to taking money out of the pocket of someone more deserving. This is a shitty move that really makes me feel bad about that purchase. I knew deep down Behringer was probably the same assholes that made bottom-of-the-barrel portable mixers when I was a kid, but didn’t want to believe it and miss out on a fun synth. I find it hard to imagine getting anything else from them now.

I’m ashamed to admit I also have 12/9 - 12/11 off. I had use-or-lose leave, and my family and I can’t exactly go anywhere or do anything. The 9th is for my daughter, then all bets are off.

I use the Nomad base station: https://nomadgoods.com/products/base-station-apple-watch I’ve had it for almost a year, I travel with it, and I’m very happy. If I was buying a new one today, I would probably get the Mophie: https://store.apple.com/xc/product/HP7L2VC/A . I like the indentations where things go.

It represents One Whole Freedom.

Did they also beat dudes up for money?

I can't believe I missed Mingus Ah Um. I've never heard Black Monk Time, so it goes on my list.
