I'm embracing the power of the dark side. Recording sessions later today. Hope you're having a good Sunday.
I was about to drop $400 on a granular synth, then I found Oi Granddad and installed it on my Linux systems. It's just what I needed. I'm also doing my own excitement with granularizing on the Ardour timeline.
Likewise, I was looking at a lofi sampler for about $400 but I had Google Gemini write a command line program that would convert 24-bit, 48 kHz files to 12-bit, 24 kHz.
I love the FOSS community and the things we can do with modern software.
