I've been using the Safebox tool developed by Guido Scognamiglio for several years. It has no direct access to the web. The passwords are encrypted and if you want to export or import a file of the passwords that file is a html encrypted file. I'm a retired IT guy and I trust it.

Huh?

Who is Jack Conte and is Scary Pockets a first cousin to Hot Pockets?

Reezekeys FTW ...

Define better ..... 🤔

Three dead cats and one dog .. Paul doesnt even belong on the same stage as them. Joey smoked them all while keeping his left hand in his pocket.

Who cares? Really ....

Watched a dozen or so videos. Seem to have it together.. Thehscc.com

My General Music Equinox's Fatar TP20 keybed. STILL the best piano action I have ever encountered on any keyboard (plus the 88 has a great piano tone). Can literally play that keyboard all day. The keybed alone weighs more than many keyboards which i assume is why it is no longer made.

You're going to drag this topic down by introducing guitar comparisons? If you are going to do that should we add a topic of 'why do guitar players need 100 watt tube amps on "10" on a 10 x 10 stage'? So that they can get their TONE????

👍 I feel as though I'm a fairly competent piano player with 6 years of classical training. My bands play both EJ and BJ songs. I find playing EJ songs overall easier to play than BJ. More intracacies to the playing with Billy's music. This is how I based my decision. I posted this 5 years ago surprised that people are still biting at this post.

Voce Key5 and the Ensoniq SD1 and TS models. I bought the last Key5 but when it arrived at the store the cabinet was damaged in-transit beyond repair and since it was the last one it could not be replaced so instead I bought the Voce V5+ (which is the sound source for the Key5). Tone-wise it still competes with today's clones, the chorus could be better and the C/V isnt splittable upper/lower. Still use it occasionally and still impressed by its sound. My SD1 and TS-12 were my favorite keyboards, the SD1 had polyphonic aftertouch and a lot of features not found on todays keyboards that i loved. Mfg was "local" and i could always take the boards directly to the factory for repair.

Lets agree to disagree.

I use the gemini module in conjunction with my pc3. I place it on the top right of the keyboard but only about 2/3 of the width sits in the allotted space and 1/3 hangs off the edge. With nitwits players i always worry about someone knocking it off the keyboard so i clamp it down with this. Link

Did you happen to write this on the afternoon of 4/20 but just got around to posting it now?

I wonder if it is any different than the leslie in the Gemini/Mojo? If it isnt I hope that they would offer it in the Gemini. If it is what is in the Gemini now I would pass on it. I already own the BURN and the Vent and frankly when I have a big show i go with either the BURN or the Vent, meaning I like the BURN/Vent better than the leslie in the Gemini. If this new pedal is the same as the current Gemini's leslie algorithm then it isnt, to me, an upgrade over the original BURN. I guess we'll have to hear what it sounds like and if it truly is new and better I would hope that at least the new algorithm is is added to the Gemini. So far the only leslie sim that truly turns my head since the original Vent intro is B3x. If that leslie sim were offered in a hardware pedal i'd press the 'buy now' button regardless of the price.

Lately ....... PC3 over a Forte 7. PC3 triggers a Gemini module. This essentially gives me two Fortes since the Gemini sounds are similar to the Forte but the PC3 is semi-weighted while the Forte is weighted. Compliment each other nicely.

Apparently there are different splitter adapters, some are made to feed headphones and some are made to carry a signal to an "aux in" cable or to a mixer. Physically they look identical, so you're at the mercy of the descripter on the package to understand what is being purchased.

From what i remember it takes a 10 db increase in power to produce a 3db increase in perceived volume. 30 db in loudness is twice the perceived loudness as 27 db. Pianoman51's post above FTW .... In order to achieve the 3db increase in loudness it takes 10x the power (given no other variables are changing) to achieve the 3db increase in perceived loudness.

I tried the tall and fat to tame some shrillness with a hammond clone. No dice, so i sold the t&f.

Who's left from the original band, Jaimoe? Sucks getting old .....
