Disappointment in hardware synths

assuming a) krim is a carpenter and b) joists is something carpenters do and c) joists go "up there"

or, just for laughs...

Fun video with Eric Persing talking about the early days of synths and programming, and - this could be relevant here - explaining what Asshole Mode was.

lmfao that was awesome... and the japanese accent
Saved it in my favorites

not in joists (more furniture) , you might find a tusk joint/tenon (often used on floor joists around chimney breasts) but not so much these days....

... im boring myself now

Same thoughts.

Well, I picked Make Noise 0-Coast, which is certainly not the workhorse synth, rather experiemental contraption.

Still, I figured out to record anything, I need to already know what to record - need to have melody and progressions in place and just tweak the knobs. Otherwise, whatever I record will end up in a trash,. as it's not possible to change the melody anymore once it's recorded :/

Maybe if I had sequencer, things would work quicker. But Ableton shoudl already cover all sequencer needs I could think of.

All in all, I took several attempts to get track running with 0-Coast, but didn't get far as yet. I took a break for now and decided to learn stuff (psytrance) with more conventional setup.

I would definitely consider giving it another try. A fun way of getting a psytrance track started is getting a sound palette of weird and unpredictable noises together first. Setting a sequence running through a hardware synth, tweaking the knobs, recording a bunch of audio and cutting it up was a refreshing way of working after years of working in the piano roll with soft synths.

I agree with you and want to try, but on the other hand... I don't. There are just so many things easier, and better to do instead. Will see.

I tend to agree, I love playing with analog stuff at home and recording little bleeps, bloops, and riffs... You run into sounds and grooves that you'd never find yourself in with a DAW and plugins. Onstage though, I prefer the structure and safety of digital stuff and software. I like to have everything under control when I'm live in front of a crowd.
