Was riding with my sister Sunday night and she had a gospel radio station on. A song came on that I did not recognize and a minute later my subconscious brane was was telling me "this may be the worst song you have ever heard." After wondering why I was having such a bad reaction to the song I started listening closer. It was a string of catch phrases. Every cliche you can imagine loosely woven together with no real direction. No anchor at all. After reading the above lyrics I wonder if the song I heard on the radio was written by an AI. -

I assume it was of the second performance, not the first one? Or did they show both? -
Asinine or cringey - take your choice! I actually find the French version cringier. It lost something in translation LOL. Below are the original lyrics that ChatGPT (Windows Copilot) vomited out. However, I will say there is one cool aspect - it built up a list of words that rhyme. So when I write my own lyrics, that info will be handy to have around. I hadn't considered rhyming "dessinent" and "devinent." ## Couplet 1 Dans la douce lumière du matin, Nos cœurs se cherchent, se dessinent. Ton sourire, un doux refrain, Nos âmes s'entrelacent, se devinent. ## Refrain C'est le toucher de l'amour, Comme une brise légère, un détour. Nos doigts se frôlent, nos regards s'envolent, Dans ce doux élan, nos vies se dévoilent. ## Couplet 2 Sous la lune argentée qui nous éclaire, Nos rêves se tissent, nos secrets se libèrent. Ton souffle chaud contre ma peau, L'amour danse, insaisissable flambeau. ## Refrain C'est le toucher de l'amour, Comme une brise légère, un détour. Nos doigts se frôlent, nos regards s'envolent, Dans ce doux élan, nos vies se dévoilent. ## Pont Et si le monde s'effondre, Nos étreintes resteront profondes. Le toucher de l'amour, éternel et pur, Dans nos cœurs, il demeure, sûr. ## Refrain C'est le toucher de l'amour, Comme une brise légère, un détour. Nos doigts se frôlent, nos regards s'envolent, Dans ce doux élan, nos vies se dévoilent. ## Outro Le toucher de l'amour, une mélodie, Qui résonne en nous, infinie. Dans chaque geste, chaque frisson, C'est là que commence notre chanson. FWIW here's a song I did in French. I think the lyrics are a lot better, if I do say so myself... the English translation is in the notes below the video.

Best of late has been a $17 pad for the original Hammond organ bench. Ahhh... Also Drum Genius (mobile app) remains the best $12 ever spent. Wish they'd put out a desktop version.

I just bought one used two days ago. I had in the past (a very past) the original ARP Odissey and an Avatar (the guitar version of the Odissey). They sounded quite differenti, and now I understand why: two different version of the filter. A friend of mine still have the all black one with coloured sliders, which Is again different, maybe two poles filter? Anyway the Behringer sounds good but a bit differenti too. My ARP had a ring modulator I used to build fabolous bell like sounds: metallic, full of harmonics. The kind of sound you can hear on Japan Tin Drum or Oil on Canvas albums. Until now I couldn't recreate this sound. Neither the Avatar did. Just my ARP Odissey I sold for little Money :( -
In V.A.S.T., be it the original V.A.S.T. or the newer vaster V.A.S.T. with Cascade and Dynamic, there are several ways you can use internal DSP sources with Samples: 1. Samples only 2. Internal DSP Oscillators only without any Sample 3. Samples mixed with internal DSP Oscillators In the new V.A.S.T., you can certainly use a multi-sampled Keymap, alongside an internal anti-aliased DSP Osc, e.g. a 2-block SINE+ for a single Layer, or even an aliased one like the old SAW+. For larger AA DSP Oscs, e.g. the 4-block SAW, you'd need to use Cascade Mode, a passthrough signal and a Mixer ALG. So these aren't mutually exclusive. Instead, what the manual seems to indicate is that if you want to do a traditional analogue subtractive synth, then you'd rather not use a Keymap, which makes sense since analogue subtractive synths don't use them at all. You can still use a Keymap's sample Envelope if it is set to Natural, even if the Sample itself isn't sounding via the Layer, say, if you have simply a 4-block AA DSP SAW. That SAW block effectively cuts off any of the Sample signal. However, as the AMPENV mode is set to Natural, it is the factory AMPENV for that multi-Sampled Keymap that is applied to the Layer. The Natural envelopes have more details than can be produced with a User AMPENV. The thing that happens with setting the Keymap to Silence is that it sets each key's amplitude to the same maximum amplitude. Maybe that's what you need in a certain program, but sometimes, if you are doing an emulative program, you could be better off actually referencing the emulation's Keymaps Sample although the latter isn't heard, with the corresponding Natural Envelope, or of course, you could just go into User Mode and make your own envelope. Hope this helps. -
Sweetwater might accept to deliver to Canada, but you will be charged transport accordingly and as anything going USA to Canada your item will go through customs and it is always possible to end up with extra fees - sometimes very expensive. I personally had a very bad experience about 10 years ago and promised myself to never import again from the USA unless the seller confirms on paper he pays for all possible customs and duties extra fees. Buying Kurzweil products in Canada has always been complicated. In the 1990s a few stores in the province kept a couple of them, but if you wanted something they didn't have you had to order sight unseen and wait months to get your purchase. That is how I bought my MIDIboard, K1200 and finally, around 2000, a PC2X. I hated the Fatar action on the PC2X from day one and swore to never buy a keyboard sight unseen ever again.
