What's your latest purchase & what are your intentions with it? [pics ftw] (Part 2)

In forty-plus years of making electronic music, I’ve never encountered a better drum machine. And I miss mine so much. :sob:

After 400 years of making tunes, you certainly would know! Respect to the eldest among us.

Ha ha ha… more coffee for me, please. It only seems like 400 years since I sold my MD.

I miss the one that I got from you as well. It was in brand-new condition, and while it took a little while to get used to it after using more modern Elektrons for so long, it was incredibly fun. I’m thinking when I can finally grab a Syntakt it will fill that void though.

Digitakt arrived today and it’s going to be used alongside the Syntakt and Digitone. Now time to read the manual.

I have been, and always will be… utterly incapable of making anything that could be remotely described as a “banger”. :blush:

got me an eyePad.
intentions:

  1. celebrating my (10.10) and Aleister Crowley’s (today, 12.10) birthdays.
  2. i was actually on the fence about №1 – but after recent russian missile attacks against our energy infrastructure we got such thing as daily rolling blackouts, so i needed something bigger than a phone, with longer battery life than a laptop, and of course with cellular connectivity – and eyePad is the obvious choice.

unfortunately, i forgot my Apple ID password and had to request password reset, so can’t purchase Senode and Fugue Machine right now – but i certainly will.

Oh, so that’s why I drew the Ace Of Disks today. It’s his insignia card. He can talk from the afterlife, through “his” tarot desk. Who knew?

Also, happy birthday to you too!

Latest purchase: Keycaps of Magical Darkness!

Intentions are to press them I guess? It’s weird paying extra money for subtle aesthetic adjustments on gear. I always feel guilty while in process even if I know I’ll be super stoked on the results.

After a brief period cycling through some different gear I’ve ended up back where I started. I’m not sure what made me want to get rid of the A4 other than wanting to try some other stuff and not being able to afford to keep A4 and something new, but everything has sold or is currently listed and we’ve come full circle. The A4 and Digitone really counter each other well in terms of over all tonal sonic vibes, adding another digital synth to the Digitone did not work for me, and having them both have really similar work flows works well for my brain. Also the A4 just sounds phenomenal.
