Re: Junkie XL tutorials
If I draw a parallel it's a bit like woodworking videos in which the guys have the $800 Festool router, the $1200 Festool workbench, the large table saw, the hidden jointer and thincknesser, and then they go on demonstrating how easy it is to make a design.

Yes, his massive setup makes my head spin.. And I keep thinking about how far electronic instruments have come over the space of a handful of decades...
I do enjoy watching them every now and then, always with a sense of reminiscence.

Re: Junkie XL tutorials
I totally agree! Synths that offer "everything" are sometimes a bit discouraging; whereas the "simpler" synths with fewer options actually push me to be creative with the "little" that I have available. There's a saying in Italy, "il troppo storpia." Having too much can actually be a hinderance.42low wrote:Don't you have that yourself then brian?briandc wrote:Yes, his massive setup makes my head spin..

My head spinnes each time if i'm going to create new sounds in new songs with the 20+ extended synths i have all based on that kind off boxes full of patches and knobs, and off which i mostly only use a handfull.
Those i have with their 'endless options' to create almost each sound i want are allready head spinning about were to start.
Makes me feel like i'm Junky XXXL
And a similar one, "chi si accontenta gode." Basically, there is pleasure in contentment.

Re: Junkie XL tutorials
Right! --I'm still amazed by the beautiful sounds that I can create (even) with my 12-year-old "duo"-core desktop PC with less than 2GB of RAM. Awesome! (I'm currently using Librazik-2 as my distro of choice, which has most (if not all) of the KXStudio repos added to it. Realtime kernel, and FAST!)42low wrote:Exactly Brian.

That's my overall opinion about linux studio. It is that extended and there's that much possible that i still have very very much to discover. Almost each time i play with it i discover something new. And i still aren't confronted with limits.
