I got the Polyend Tracker about a month ago. Still trying to learn it. Taking three classes right now, so I don’t have a great deal of free time.

I’ve read a couple literary works on NLP… good way to control your thought process/brain. I’ve found it helpful overcoming mild trauma. It’s supposedly helpful for dealing with stress too, but I didn’t have much luck with that. I probably just need to revisit it and practice.

Did you receive it like this (with something that looks like a scratch)?

No scratch, looks like a combination of lighting and smear on the smartphone lens.

Ordered a Warm Audio WA-8000 microphone since it went on sale today, which is their version of the popular Sony C‑800G. It will mainly be used on vocals, but other sound sources as well.
It is my fifth Warm Audio microphone purchase over the past couple months. Overall, the ones received have been great additions to my mic locker. Just waiting for the Warm Audio WA-251 to go on sale and a Shure KSM44A will also be purchased soon, and then I am done with microphone additions for the foreseeable future.

Grabbed this classic this weekend for an absolute steal. Even came with an M256E memory card. I remember these coming into the shop I worked in when they came out, always loved the orange LCD and recognised the percussion in that awful Genesis song right away. Saw later it was a big hit with the electronic artists of the day (recall Dave Angel loving it and it being all over the first Ken Ishii album). Playing it today sounds like so many old tracks from the Trance Europe Express era (and Mario 64).
Broken plastic sides and one key needs its spring put back in but apart from that it seems fine, and no sign anywhere of any red glue, inside or out.

What?: TE EP-133 K.O. II bag (69 EUR)
Whatfor? errm, dunno, thought it looked pretty cool.
What else?: TE Pocket Operator modular 16 (59 EUR)
Why?: errm, to get free shipping 
and I seem to never have enough sequencers, and maybe I just think, the world is gonna end, so F it?
What else?: Kawai Q80 and Roland MC500 (really cheap)
Whatfor?: did I mention I sort of never have enough sequencers? And I just had bought Jeff Mills‘ Growth EP (AX-10) and that had warped me again deep into polyrhythm territory (were a cool bag may certainly come in handy - and the polyrhythm-loop-wonder-machine Q80 of course) and I never touched an MC500 and love the clunky sound of the cash register (
oh Freud) buttons (or my idea of it) and - did I mention, sometimes I think, lately more often for some reason, the world is going to end - so F it?

Just had a quick read of this MC500 review from '87…
“The machine has a stated memory capacity of 25,000 notes (or MIDI events), but in practice, if you record in step time with no velocity, aftertouch or pitch-bend data, you can push this up to over 30,000 events. Internal memory is 512K RAM, and each disk can store 2Mbytes of data, which allows you to store a lot of information (about eight songs’ worth, in fact).”
My goodness we are spoilt these days!

I thought the 2DD disk holds 720kB. But it’s a lot for Midi data! Never exceeded any memory limit on any hardware sequencer so far (maybe due to the fact it is minimal techno mostly 
and no SysEx or lots of CC data)
Here is everything and some more:

Korg ARP 2600M - $1150 was just too good a discounted price to pass up. Once upon a time, people joked about Korg making a Volca 2600 with super tiny sliders, magnifying glass 100% required. IMO, this is not the case with the 2600M. The sliders are still a decent size and the panel is still easy to read. The built in speakers can be surprisingly loud.
Starving Students M-PAR right angle Eurorack cables - 5 pack of 6" red cables and 5 pack of 8" green cables. One of the 2600M reviews stated the stock cables are long enough to hang on top of the keyboard, if you park your keyboard controller right in front of the 2600M, and so shorter cables were recommended.
