    The kid next door learning to play clarinet, then two weeks later the oboe, then two weeks after that the alto sax, then two week after that the trumpet. The kid finally stuck with that and can actually play fairly well now. But man it was painful for a few months. Gotta give that kid some credit for sticking with it. 

    As a young boy, I often had to endure a relative "learning to play" the violin. I still find it hard to listen to those things. *shudders*

     I have only had a cursory look at it so far. I must revisit and see if it has uses beyond EDM.

    I like to have many different textures occurring through a piece, so I find it useful in small sections like a breakdown or intro/outro or even just triggering the odd sample here and there to supplement a snare hit or something like that.

    Do they act as diffusers though  those egg crates??

    I think that was supposed to be the idea as the walls were just bare concrete block before. The other guys were convinced that everything sounded better but in reality most of the time the guitarist drowned everything else out anyway.

    Funny, when I was a young fellow, I put those egg crates up on all the walls of a bedroom in my mobile home thinking they would somehow make the room sound proof.  ?

    I also once spent a weekend glueing those things to the walls of our practice room, which had been a small milking parlour in a previous life. A false "ceiling" was then made out of an old RAF parachute. TBH I had no idea why we did either, but it looked cool at the time.
