Brisbane, Australia.

It's been a long time since I checked back in here, but the local timeline seems to be mostly just bots? The few real people I can see tooting are also non English. I guess I should seek an instance that suits me better.
I'll keep working on my python midi sequencer using a Launchpad Mini as a control input / display, but it's taking a long time to get anywhere. Hopefully I can someday use it with a raspberry pi and a midi out cable to add sequencing playback and recording to any device with a 5 pin din midi input.
I might be looking to pick up a Korg SQ-1 so I can sequence my Behringer Neutron. I can get gate and note in through Midi, but nothing else has midi control. I can use the CV outs on the SQ1 to sequence everything else
I think I've given up the dream of a hardware midi sequencer for a decent price, and settled on "well I guess I'll use my DAW". Now to map out midi channels and connections to my synths and controllers.
So I thought of a use for my Raspberry Pi. I'm going to try and make a sunrise simulator with red, orange and yellow LED's for my very dark room.
Hmm, Kodi wants to bring DRM to the platform. Yes, DRM bad and all that, but if I can use Netflix within Kodi, I will be extremely happy.
I'll probably go home and play Paladins all night. I really should just buy Overwatch and be done with it.
So far my Raspberry Pi 2 has been a web server, a htpc, an emulation box and a media server. I would love it to be a media server, but since the Ethernet is on the USB bus, it shares bandwidth with the external drive, making transfers slower than I'd like.
Anyone else out there struggling with antidepressants suppressing your creativity and motivation?
