Bought some new gear.. Nothing musical though.

But an Olympus omd m10 mark 3 camera :love:

I already have an aps-c sensor Nikon D3300, so this mirrorless thingy is new to me.

Played with it today and.. I'm in love. Lovely camera.

Also not musical, but I bought paper towels online because our grocery store has been out of stock for the last 3-4 weeks. But somehow they got shipped to the apartment where I lived 11 years ago, even though I have ordered other stuff from them and had it delivered here.

:bang:

Looks like the toilet paper thing is US related for the most part. Where I am (Denmark) every supermarket have them in stock and it's been like that since the beginning of the crisis.

As for purchases, mine isn't gear related either. I've bought a monster of a gaming PC but in a very small cabinet despite being stationary. It wasn't cheap though.
In fact, I've been a console gamer for 25 years and I have no plans to drip my machines because of the new PC. I just knew that when Doom Eternal came out, a console wouldn't suffice. It has to be a mouse and keyboard thing 8)
Now I have 2 stationary PCs (my music one is strictly for music). Will it ever end! :lol:

In Finland people started to hamster toilet paper at Friday so shelves were empty for Saturday and Sunday. Luckily shelves were full again at Monday. Wonder how those people are doing, who bought few hundred rolls :lol:

I'm a console gamer too (playstation 4ever), but in the last few years I've been drawn more and more to pc gaming.
Adventures (like horizon zero dawn) are still something I want to play on PS, but strategies and shmups (and other first person stories like the elder scrolls) are pc only.

New pc would be nice though :)

Micro 4/3rds is a great eco system for photography, range of lenses is really good :D

Seems like it.. And m4/3 lenses seem to fit to every m4/3 camera, no matter who makes the lens or camera. Though Nikon has an impressive range of dx lenses, and you can use fx lenses too.


Back to Olympus.. The image rendering is somehow VERY pleasing, compared to Nikon or Canon. Of course the pictures those cameras take are great looking etc, but they miss some "mojo" that Olympus has. And what I've heard, Fujifilm would be very good with mojos.

i included marbles. its a sequencer sometimes...

do you use reaktor? blocks specifically?
the new toybox poly seq from the synth pack. that would be cool as a module.
tempted to add a miditocv module and a laptop running just that!
:ud:

Also sometimes a fancy sample and hold + quantizer for other sequencers :D

I messed with Blocks a little but didn't find I liked working with it much. I'm pretty sure it's had another big update since I messed with it, but eh... Bitwig Grid makes more sense to me.

I can't even remember if I have Reaktor installed on my new computer... :scared:

Post

ah well, was kind of hoping youd say "yeah its cool, a bit like..." then name some modules i could burn cash on... :lol:

i can understand if you dont het on with it, no point forcing yourself to use it, not going to get good results.

one day, i will have an actual look at bitwig.
(not reaper though)(thats my "ive never seen star wars" equivalent)
:ud:
