LLM regurgitation causing problems for regurgitation industry
@sean_ae I’m waiting for the merger of the LLM and MLM industries so not only will we be walking around going “LLMLMMPMLLLLLPMMMLLMLLLL” but the machines will be selling cheap soap and toilet paper to each other.
@changterhune @sean_ae With enough effort, perhaps we could get here: https://youtu.be/I3GWOhIm018

Ween - Buckingham Green (Studio Demo) (High Quality)

@sean_ae @alisynthesis @TROG omg never thought you'd be into ween but it tracks lol. As an HR16 owner I was so happy to hear on their records in addition to the weirdness. I need to revisit their discography.

@changterhune I'm forever almost buying an HR16, so cool

@sean_ae @TROG

@alisynthesis @sean_ae @TROG I loved mine. I finally got an HR16b & realized it was the one I wanted all along lol. But the HR16 has a couple great snares that sound like black metal when pitched high enough. Maybe I'll lay both out in a row with both the MMT8s for a row of Alesis and the sounds of 1991!

@changterhune i have that little retrokits sequencer that's based on that alesis, and it's really fun. super useful!

@sean_ae @TROG

@alisynthesis @changterhune @TROG hey this looks fun, cheers for mentioning, i should tell rob, he used mmt8 a lot

(only thing that bugged me about it was how it would play held notes when you unmuted a channel)

@sean_ae @alisynthesis @TROG yeah I had a lot more midi panic back then lol. Last time used mine was 28 years ago. Paired them up like Orbital to run an S900, CS1X, DR660, MKS30, EX8000 & others. The good old days.... except when you had to open it up and rub a pencil eraser on the contacts after the buttons got finicky.
@changterhune @alisynthesis @TROG lol yeah, i rem rob pushing them buttons *hard* some nights
@sean_ae @alisynthesis @TROG lol yeah had that happen. And then I spilled gatorade or something on it and realized I needed a new sequencer. I think I used an RM1X next then graduated to an iBook and Ableton.

@changterhune @sean_ae @TROG i kinda love the trend of small shops/makers re-upping classic gear. i have the s2400 (rip) and it's a really badass modern remake of the sp1200.

S2400 – ISLA Instruments

@alisynthesis @sean_ae @TROG oh yeah I want one too. A friend has it and loves it. As redundant as it might be I might like one still. No wonder I'm always broke lol.

@changterhune it's a really amazing instrument. honestly, overkill for what i usually need a sampler for, but i doubt i will sell it because it's so fun as a standalone thing.

the guy who runs isla instruments is apparently closing down his us-based business and heading back to the uk, so the future of that instrument is a bit up in the air, but there are quite a few out there at this point.
