    There is one thing about this that IMHO is insanely, insanely, insanely awful.  You can only play the chords with your left hand.

    To me it's more logical that way. Being right handed, if I were playing a guitar I would form the chord with my left hand and strum with the right, so it's the same as a guitar which makes more sense to me.

    I don't know the details so I can't comment on specifics but they may be good reasons for wanting to maintain a separate identity.
    I try to keep my day gig and audio related interests and endeavors isolated.  I lost a major IT job a couple of years back with a new tech company because the investor backing the firm felt with my involvement in audio that I didn't have enough commitment to the field. 

     

    In the case of a possible conflict with a day job then yes I could understand adopting a pseudonym for the moonlight gig, but in that scenario one could just say hi, I'm Joe Madeupname and these are my products....... Posing as a punter who just happened to chance across these products that they would like to share with you at more or less the same time as they joined the forum just comes across as disingenuous to me and very unlikely to make me want to give that person any money at all. Maybe that's not the case here, but it certainly smelled like it to me.

    Oh, so you're curvophobic are you? 

    You do realise that this is an all inclusive user forum with a zero tolerence policy of insensitivity towards other forms of monitor. Please buy a curved one immediately or the bend police will be paying you a visit.

    Yeah, it seemed rather obvious that he was posting here under two different identities

    That put me off straight away. Just gives the wrong vibe to me. If anyone is here to sell something, just be honest about it. Nothing wrong with that, but pretending to be someone/something else is a big turn off for me.

    From what little I saw of the products they seemed to be using the names of famous artists, so I wonder if he hit legal problems because of that.

    I think it might appeal to people who want it for the presets

    Nothing there to make me want it. I get that presets are not the point of this kind of thing, but as a supposed showcase of what can be done with it the selection is somewhat lacking.

    You can add a lot to that list, at least down here

    Maybe true, maybe speculation, but if it helps, this is what I heard....

    Andy (Synkrotron)  - Changed his name to Nigel and disappeared in tangle of wires trying to connect his second LFO to his DCO. 

    James (James1213) - Got a bit fed up with certain people poking fun at the girlfriends of his kinfolk - or sheep as they're sometimes known.

    Dave (Bitflipper) - Seemingly awol since his own thread got deleted, presumably by another mod. Currently looking for a new dummy.

    Daryl (Daryl1968) - Fell in love with a monkey and now residing on the Planet of the apes.

    Ubiquitous Bubba - well, could be anything, right?

    James (Sharke) - Ran off with a weird looking chick called Bitwig. 

    Beepster - Furiously breeding hamsters in attempt to improve the power of his laptop.

    Pedro (Moshkiae) - Bored himself to sleep 3 years ago. Still comatose.

    Jonbouy  - made enough from forum fees to retire to a medium sized bungalow in Brighton where he occasionally intimidates the neighbours just for fun.

    Yorolpal - Selling Yeller fro's on a beach somewhere..

    Rain - Saw the ghost of Elvis. Currently making an album with him in a very dark room.

    Put simply I just don't feel welcome here

    I don't think anybody does. If it helps any I only continue to visit in spite of the nonsensical moderation.

    Plus, I like to bust Bapu's chops as often as possible.

  8. Tone 2 seem to have a knack of making nice synths with nice UI's that sound good for at least twice as much money as might seem tempting. Or is that just me?
