f**k consumerism.
Also, remember the wise words of synth god WC Olo Garb:
"You can never get enough of what you don't need to make you happy."

I was on the edge of buying yet another 20 dollar pack of credits from the CS, but then decided to check what I have already..
After perusing, the different bass amps and cabinets I already have, I realized that what I already have can pretty much sound like what the others I don't have to my ears.. so there really isn't a point. 20 in my bank account collecting interest..

You know, (though I have NOT opened the boxes!) I plunked down a GIGAWAD of cash on something I already know is flawed, but I was so cheap with those credits 
I really felt I "done good". I'm nuts.

After checking out WC Olo Garbs website and also the gear list page, I really can't tell if you're joking by posting this little bit of wisdom :-/SonicDimension wrote:f**k consumerism.

He talks about "cheesy sounds' made by synths being disappointing. I listened to his music on Youtube. I read about cheese. Is he taking the piss?
Maybe I'm missing some irony here?
Peace,
Andy.
