Figuring out AGSL has opened up a whole new world, I hacked the metaballs myself but have been porting other people's small shaders from ShaderToy. I won't use all of these but porting (at least simple ones) is fun and painless.

Not tested on many devices but 'works for me'.

A while back I bought an adapter to try to change the strap of my watch but sadly it didnt fit my model so the strap sat in the closet… until now! #theWorkshop

Bought a (used) #KZ #IEM (a ZS10) because I wanted to try something with good isolation for work. Its metal grill thingy immediately fell out from one side, so I spent a good 30m today cleaning it with IPA and putting micropore tape in its place. Also took off the remaining grill as a preventative measure and swapped that too.
Not sure why, but that fucked up the balance, the right side sounded like 3 times louder than the left. Tried to apply the tape in different ways, swapped the tips too, took off the tape from the right side, reapplied it, cleaned the left again, etc.
Now after a lot of trial and error it sounds mostly balanced, but idk what fixed it.

Anyways, glad that I could #repair it.

It works! (albeit a bit slow)

now with spindle!

this is the spindle I surprise received in the mail right before moving, kind of the whole reason I'm doing this project at all, so getting it mounted on here is a big milestone

90% of why this took so long is I knocked a bunch of balls out of the linear rail carriages, lost a bunch of them, and then ordered the wrong size to replace them (4mm balls will actually fit, and then it'll immediately jam when you try to put it on the rail, because even cheap HGR rails have hella tight tolerances)

I need to go consult my CAD to see how I was planning to attach the Z motor up there because the thing I thought I was doing does not look like it is going to fit there

Return of Girl

Celebrating a historical rework of https://analognowhere.com with not very many new features!

This Yamaha MU5 sounds beautiful: https://youtu.be/BDRtYVeyXr8 I only went down the arpeggiated route with Resonance midi mode because changing note volume after note-on was proving problematic (that's still in as an option though). Still got about half a dozen features to implement with it, and I still want to try after-touch on some capable midi hardware (can't justify £300 on a Waldorf Blofeld just now). #theWorkshop
