You win the internet today with that one.
IĀ“m looking at a tree right now.
While typing this.
(this is not relevant to anything, just wanted to be Dora The Explorer and say:
WHY NOT BOTH? )
This is an OT mk3 advert of course.
That would be genius
OT MK3 OFFICIALLY CONFIRMED
That escalated quickly.
Itās all about clickbait these days. Shameless grabs for attention. The formula is: pick something popular and talk bad about it. Or praise it then claim it is dead, and nothing will be as good in the future. Self-important people who donāt care about the actual message, just about the attention it brings them.
Quote from video: āāhis sign-off I found more than a bit curious, as I always felt he had been an essential ingredient in the overall design and concepts behind theā¦āā
Translation: I read on an internet forum that he designed these machines, so Iām pretending to be an expert historian on the subject. Iāll convince you by using the Ken Burns plugin in my video editing software.
Youtubers. It works
for real, ive seen stranger videos on youtube, weāve all been there at 3am, watching some loon explaining why the earth must have a chocolate centre with a suggested videos list full of things like āWHY YOU SHOULD WEAR WET SOCKS TO BED[2019]ā
It also doesnāt help that we live amongst probably the most self entitled generation. Itās all me, me, me, now, now, now.
It really is staggering that folk can get so wound up by stuff like this.
Not just at 3amā¦ right now YT wants me to watch this vid about Hitler being still alive
anywayā¦ please just let this post alive and let the people say what they feel
Iām pretty sure the author of this video is a forum member and prolific knowledge dropper ninja warrior with Elektron machines.
Thatās just his voice. I donāt think anything sinister was intended and there is no hint of a conspiracy anywhere - the TLDR of the video is āa very early Elektron employee recently left, and maybe thereās a chance that he felt the company had lost sight of its foundational soul, and maybe thatās why he left, or maybe he just wanted to go scuba diving and take a breakā.
Guess what? All of thatās valid and a reality as businesses grow. Great observation and insight into Daniels work and history.
Nothing more to see here than that. We can all move along, pull our necks in, there is no disrespect, no dead bodies (or Octatracks) on the road.
Paging the author @defenestration
Maybe you critics should check his other content before ripping him a new one?
The government is actually a group of satanic llamas with an agenda of putting doorknobs the bottom of doors
I knew it!
I feel like a lot of people here are taking the above video way to personally. The unfortunate part is that someone else grabbed the video and posted it with a misleading title. Iāve been watching a lot of Max Marcoās videos lately, and if you did too, youād see how much he contributes to the overall community. Always willing to explain some of the more complex projects and jams that he posts up.
Anyway, Iām going to go look at some trees now.
feeling cute, might look at some trees laterā¦ idk
@Housecliche nailed it
any āconspiracyā element is played up primarily for humor - Iām not the one who designed that Illuminati symbol Octatrack shirt
Yeah. I canāt imagine Mac Marco was trying to be provocative here (not in a mean-spirited way). His videos are very supportive of Elektron and- more importantly - Elektron users.
(edit: Looks like the man himself has jumped in while I was typing the above)
Hey all-
My octatrack is working just fine. I think this is a hoax. I also have a telecaster guitar that has been working for decades after Leo Fenderās retirement, so I think itās gonna be OK.
