Torso T-1 arrived today. Intent is to plug it into things.

My wife (a drummer) and I are talking about our days at dinner:

me: also I got a new black box with knobs and pads.
her: but does it have a lot of lights?
me: yes.
her: good.

Roland SP606, this was my favorite of the old sp samplers I ran through in the early 10s, kinda the grandpa of the mk2, 4 tracks sequencer, sample chopping and two mfx busses. It’s a little clunky to use but the effects sound great.

Holy shit. I’d forgotten all about the hue of those old screens.

This one reminds me a lot of the mpc1000.

We all have buddy. Whether that’s a moment of pride seems to vary greatly. I imagine I looked like someone playing that dancing lightsaber game on the VR headsets, but damn did it feel cool.

How they put out that new 64 thing and called it an APC is beyond me. APC is all about faders and other hands on control.

Nice! I have planned to make myself something similar. Didn’t know there was a finished product for sale. Might consider buying this too because most likely won’t have time to diy.

Unintentionally bought a second AE Octatrack for a decent price and with no alcohol involved :slight_smile: Will use for 3 weeks since away from home to give me something to do, then decide to take it home and rock 2 in my setup or trade it lol.

Will whack my travel companion M8 thru it out of curiosity and use the knobs for M8, FX and scenes for now!

Pair with Koala Sampler desktop version. Had been thinking about buying an old tablet just to get using Koala again, but realised I can use desktop version on my MacBook, just fine - but needed something to control it better as I can’t be dealing with qwerty keyboard for controlling anything.

Found this Suzuki QChord for the low low ($50) used. Really want an Omnichord but this will do in the meantime. Suzuki is re-releasing the OG any day now. Cool little chord-synth for easy always in tune lofi strumming. Will run through fx/pedals to expand the sound options.
