Back in the 80's, I had a friend who was the top sales manager at Sherman Clay Organs and Pianos for three years in a row. As such, he got to demo some really nice stuff. One of these was a "new" (at the time) Ensoniq synth that was given to him to try out (no idea which model unfortunately...). One of the things it could do was a type of "aftertouch" where you simply held down a note for a long time and it just went off on a wild trip of bizarre sounds (still, by far, the most interesting sounds I've heard while on shrooms!?). I'm searching YouBoob for any videos showing this effect and found a couple that sound wonderful (see below). Hopefully, I will find one so I can ask the one question I really want to ask! DOES ANYONE KNOW OF A SOFTWARE SYNTH THAT CAN DO THE SAME???

But what if I wanted it to be my night? ( ? )

*Pffttt...* S.L.I.P.'s was soooo last year! ?

Boy, I wish that were the case with the one client we have that's using them! We have almost daily issues with their VM's and containers... Someday, we'll get around to refreshing them from scratch correctly. Other than the above, I haven't really done squat with Linux for almost 20 years! There was a time when I used to run the second-most popular game servers on the West Coast (U.S.) which were all Linux. I had a dedicated T1 line coming in and ran Quake 1 (where I was ranked at #24 out of over 340,000 players at one time - I was a low ping b@stard too! ?), Counter Strike (my team, one of two in our "clan," made it to the #1 spot on League Republic) and Half Life (I created two popular maps). Ah, those were fun days! Besides the servers, I had five full setups so friends could come over for LAN parties. ?

When those kittens grow up?

Since a "true" analog will cost stupid amounts of money, I'd suggest one that's really close like this analog modeling synth: I had both this one and the rack equivalent (which might be an option since he already has a keyboard controller and can be found for under $300).

[Just assume something witty was put here and not an accidental duplicate post. TIA.]

A "Three for Thursday!"

While I try to avoid most IoT devices, I must admit that I just LOVE my WiFi enabled LIFX bulbs! ?

I'm somewhat shocked that the stupid forum censor is missing all these sax posts! ?

I had this: But all I really ever used was this... Oh well...

For serious Rock collectors only. ?

Proper examination, not impatience Steve! ?

Ya. Gene and Eddie > Gene Loves Jezebel > Jezebel. Simples! ?

pseudo posting? Or... sudo su - post?

Hooters has started making deliveries. They're changing their name to Knockers.

I like how the girl with the largest sax is the only one dressed different! I bet her sisters tell people she was always the weird one. ?

*Patiently waits to add a new Synkrotron album to his collection...* ?

I wonder how many people will have a Corona today versus last year?

Ampeg! ?
