Yeah, sure. You keep telling yourself that's why you don't get invited.
That's pretty much what my Roli is to me - I just love playing it, even though the things I do will almost certainly never end up being used in a song, I can spend an entire evening just going crazy with it, It is much more about the inspiration it gives me, which is an aspect of using a modular I hadn't really thought about. See, I knew you'd be good for some useful insight.i use it more for just the sheer enjoyment of playing, knowing full well ill never get the "exact" sound, is part of the fun for me. like each piece is a single moment in time.
Maybe for you but I am ruthless in my drive for efficiency, which is why I can make our next chart-topping album on a Core i5 machine with 8GB of RAM. I'd rebuild something from scratch rather than add an extra module to solve a problem. Again, that's just part of the challenge but I do tend to be very disciplined in such matters - a hangover from hardware days.in software its too easy to add another this or that...
What!?! Nobody thought to say "modules"? Surely that was the obvious answer? I'm surprised the same sort of thing doesn't happen over Roli stuff. If I'm honest, there is absolutely no way to justify the expense of a Seaboard Rise, and quite a few people seem to have got rid of them after a short while, but I absolutely love mine and I'd be far more likely to get rid of my Ultranova or Analog Keys than the Roli (the Roli cost me more than either of those, they were both second-hand). I've said many times before that you can't put a price on inspiration and it is completely true.well, quite often its not even people asking us to justify, its just downright rudeness.
as an example, there was recently a thread in instruments where woggle asked "what will a modular offer me?"
cue 14 pages, where at least once on each page the following 3 comments would all be made "an empty wallet", "wasted time" and "the ability to make expensive fart noises". sometimes more than once on each page...
Isn't it a rare and beautiful thing when we're able to have an actual, grown-up discussion about something? Thanks vurt, thanks Justin. Back to gawping at pictures now, I suppose.hope that helps a little.
