To explain, Ron, though I thought we explained the last time, and at the risk of losing my membership card, it is quite simply an absurd answer to an absurd question. It is the KVR equivalent of a Zen koan.
Q: What synth to sound like Benassi?
A: One Ping Only

Q: NEED SYNHT FOR HARD GERMAN BASS???
A: One Ping Only

Q: Hiphop Headz - vsti for cUrnk?
A: One Ping Only

Q: I'm looking for that sound, like you know - clips inside
A: One Ping Only
It is a less hostile way of saying, "Your question is meaningless, you are looking only at the tool as the source of the product. The tool is just a means. You are the source. I'll see you on page 20 of this thread after every synth ever made has been added to the list."

It just isn't as funny if we type that out every time. In fact, that last bit is I think the origin of the joke. After a list of a 1000 synths for trance, someone surely said, "And don't forget One Ping Only." There after, the first post merely cut to the chase. It has become the proverbial kitchen sink.

Funnier still is that One Ping Only can be a fairly useful thing. But I know, you don't get it. Such is life.

Nominee for reply of the month IMO

To ALLOFDRAB: I enjoyed your cool, short piece, "Two One Pings" On occasion I play "found-object percussion" in local drumming circles your piece reminded me of my much complimented work with one-pint tequilla bottles. You pour water into the bottle to about 1/3 full or so (experiment) and tap the bottle while tilting it back and forth. Use a drumstick or hard rubber mallet.

sadly
no one speaks of the incredible anechoic room simulator anymore

or does that pop up in 'fx to make me sound like cher' threads?

What a great thread!

Shamann: that was so eloquently put - you've summed up a piece of KVR-folklore!
Frippertronix: Babya Ultra PingOnly deserves to be KVR-folklore!

Forget all this eloquence and lyrical pretension. In a nutshell, OnePing Only is shite. It's an overuse of irony, and that, basically, IS the joke. See?

I've learned so much from these forums! Though not a lot pertaining to music...

I find myself using the phrases:

One-Ping-Only

and

One-Trick-Pony

...pretty much on a daily basis now... sometimes interchangeably too!
