Broccoli and cheese pot pie. Mmmmmmm!!!

Weird, I was under the impression they were more popular in Europe than the U.S., and toured there more.

Yes radi, everything for me relates to driving and polluting the environment.

Title changed.

Fog causes a lot of traffic accidents, and makes my own driving very tense. Fuck fog.

I used the 7506's for many years. Not the best for mixing but I learned how to work with them. I also use the ADAM A7. Wonderful monitors, just a bit limited in the low end for electronic music, so I use my headphones to check low end.

I have a Wolves in the Throne Room CD, and I've seen them once. It's not my favorite kind of metal but it has its moments. Unfortunately they don't have a bassist, and I think they really could use one.

Sounds great, and I love the cover!

Welcome back Pixie!

About 14 years, although the first couple years my only keyboard might not entirely qualify as a synthesizer.

It was pretty good, but didn't blow me away or anything. I saw it in 3D but only because that's how the timing worked out; I was originally going to go to a 2D showing with friends but we got there late, and the next one was 3D. I don't care about 3D and usually try to watch the regular versions because it's not worth the extra money to me. The only movie I've seen in 3D where the 3D actually blew me away was Sanctum. That movie was visually amazing. And very uninteresting in terms of story and acting.

Yes I have one, and I love it. It's close enough for me, and you can fine-tune it to your liking (at least you can if you build it yourself, as I did). There's a whole subforum at Adafruit dedicated to the x0xb0x, and people there have presented all sorts of mods in their endless quest to make it as exactly like a 303 as they can. If you'll forgive the spammy nature of this, you can check out one of my songs where I used it for the bass and two acid layers: https://soundcloud.com/veracohr/labyrinth-now-with-more-acid

There was less than two hours between your post showing the site and this one. I don't know about other members, but I'm at work 8 hours of the day, and I have other things to do in addition. Chill out.

I don't have any experience with the Bass Station 2, but I have a Bass Station 1 (rack), and I use it for 90% of my bass sounds. I've occasionally used it for higher frequency sounds, but I have other options that are much more versatile for such things. I watched a promo video for the Bass Station 2, and it sounded good, but I can't remember what about it was different from the original. However, this topic is about modular synths, and the Bass Station isn't modular. Modular synths can indeed get quite expensive. As a quick and easy example, go to any modular synth maker's website (Doepfer, MOTM, etc.) and gather the prices for the most basic synthesizer modules: 1 oscillator, 1 VCA, 1 VCF, 1 envelope generator, 1 MIDI-CV converter, plus whatever power supplies are needed for those modules. Just those modules get a bit pricey, and together you have the most boring synth imaginable. It takes even more modules for a modular synth to rise above integrated synths, so that you have the ability to modulate things with other things in weird ways. That's the whole point of modular synths (these days).

Nice Panoptes! One of these days I'll get into that too...

Hey, radi, you should think about one of those free blog sites like Wordpress or Blogspot. This idea sounds like good territory for a blog. There's already lots of sites out there trying to be an all-encompasing, objective database.

Goa Vibes 2. It was the first goa CD I got; up to that point I only had a couple IM albums in the psy genre.

It's not a joke, just a tribute to Jeff Hanneman, who died this year. I assume the one you saw also said "1964-2013"?

Slayer was great, Gary Holt is good. I didn't realize it beforehand, but apparently Dave Lombardo is (again) not playing with them, so it's just two original members. They had a neat new banner behind them at the end of the show that looked like the Heinneken logo, but said "Hanneman".

It was disappointing, although visually nice. Might be good for someone who hasn't read the book, but even if I accept the major editing for time involved in adapting a book to a movie, in the end it entirely missed the emotional impact on Ender of what was being done to him. It tried to touch on that at the ending, but in my opinion it fell flat because the movie had ignored that part up until then.

I'm so glad modern technology has made it possible for people to put up little mini walls between my eyes and the band I'm trying to watch! I saw Slayer and Gojira on the 1st. It was good overall, although I would have liked Gojira to play for longer. But so many people lift up their damned phones so they can take video, and it's right in my line of sight! I don't get it; I saw people who seemed to watch the show more through their tiny little phone screen than the actual life-sized one in front of them!

Kind of amazing he lived that long, given how many of the VU songs are about drugs. I'm a big VU fan.

Oh god I hope not. That movie is so great it would only suffer from being remade.
