That's awesome! The first city and venue that we'd checked, the one nearest me, had sold out quickly; but then we found and snagged two tickets for good seats at the Eastman Theater in Rochester, NY this coming October 19, a Saturday. Woot! -
wait, isn't B-3X the engine inside Hammond Suzuki XK-5 keyboard (same sound)? I remember being on a friends PC and seeing an 'XK-5' label somewhere in the settings. -
I’ve watched a few YouTube videos comparing various systems and know a bit more about what to watch for in a mesh system, but it has been 10 years since I set one up, Currently I am on rural DSL so speeds are not that great. They finally made cable available in my area but they are having lots of problems so I will stick with DSL for now. My house is wired for ethernet in most rooms with a router in the garage. The DSL modem is in my garage. I have an Airport Extreem attached to it and an ethernet cable going from it to the router. DSL modem -> Airport Extreme -> router for the wired connections I have a smaller Airport in my living room connected by ethernet. I like using wired connections rather than relays having to use wireless connections. The Extreme covers the man cave upstairs, the front porch and guest bedrooms. The small Airport covers the kitchen, dining living room and back porch. The master bedroom and bathroom have the weakest connections in the house and need an improvement. Thus, I am looking at a three box system. I was leaning towards the Eero 6+ as all components have ethernet connections. I notice the 6 is limited to wireless relay only. I assume the ports on the 6+ boxes will allow them to transmit over the ethernet connections. I first considered the Eeros Pro 6E but watched a video that explains that most everything currently connects through 5 which the 6+ has two bands. On the Pro 6E one band is a 6 and will go mostly unused, causing more devices to compete for bandwidth on the single channel of 5. So, if you read all of this, thanks. Any comments, suggestions, other recommendations? I know that Eero was purchased by Amazon and that will turn some people off. Another brand I considered was purchased by Google and I don’t feel any better about using them. -

I you really want/need it, $29 or $49 is not a big deal. I buy all my music software when on sale. Sometimes it is not at the absolute minimum price it has or will reach, but well, my time is also worth some money, so I am not losing too much of it trying to get the absolute minimum on each purchase 😅

Waaaay back when....I bought a white face ARP Odyssey off a friend of our drummer. Never had my eye on one, but it was a great deal and I needed one more synth for my rig. Probably did 200 gigs with it. I used it a ton, and it never let me down. I eventually sold it to help pay for a brand new DX7 when they first hit the streets. (Ya, it was that long ago) I honestly have never missed it - not even once, and would not buy another one, regardless of who makes it or how inexpensive they are. Too many better options out there these days. Odysseys always sounded a little too "thin" for my tastes. I much prefer a synth that can do "fat".....and any 37 note keyboards are generally an automatic pass for me now. -

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.
