Think I've settled on a board (for a while). After much trial and error, this seems to be the right combination of things that actually get used playing with the band. Still, that right corner looks very lonely...

sooooo.... i was actually really curious what one dood with all the rack stuff and intricate control/routing did with it.

not talking poo about him, but every time i see something huge and starshippy like that when you listen to the albums it's on it's just..... eh? that's... that's it?

Don`t get me wrong people, I`m no super-booper musician. I`m just a real gear junkie, with a MIDI addiction, and a penchant for sharing. I`m kind of a kin to the duffer that owns 15 sets of clubs, but has never played a round under 100 in his life.

Seriously though, when I became enamoured with the electric guitar, it was about the same time that someone turned me on to King Crimson, and soon thereafter guitar synths started to appear. I just became intrigued as to how I could make my guitar sound like anything but. Over the years, the gear piled up, and I`m kind of anal about having stuff sitting around, so if it can a least be readily available to me, it kinda soothes that itch.

Over the last couple of years, the sharing part has really blossomed, since I hate seeing folks lose their mind over gear that may or may not be worth the mind losing (case in point, Schumann PLL). At the same time, it allows me to investigate how certain gear behaves with others, and if anyones is curious, drop me a line, and I`d be happy to share my experiences.

As for the MIDI addiction, that`s come in handy actually. Three years ago, my buddy keyboardist whom I play with, suffered a stroke. It fucked up his left side. With rehab, and surgury to his eye, he`s almost back to normal, but the left hand dexterity is not what it used to be. He`s got major problems with chords. With a MIDI keyboard, and Ableton, I figured out how to let the laptop do the heavy lifting for the left hand, while he can concentrate on the right.

We`re just a couple of garage artists. That`s it. But, we love what we do, and we love being part of a community that shares. In a way, if it wasn`t for all the years I put into that «rig», I would not have amassed much of the knowledge I have today.
