Wow, I am impressed that console looks like you need an engineering degree to play this instrument. I have trouble getting a TV programme on my cable TV between the two remotes for it. I am sure you make weird and wonderful music on it.

heheh thanks luv. An engineering degree would help , but alas I have none. I leave the hardcore synth technicalities to those who know. I just go on an abstract journey, like I do with most things in life. It is the most incredible feeling when a rhythm and a melody appear, seemingly out of nowhere.

You have to travel through a lot of mash to get to the beauty, but that's what makes it so addictive, knowing that there will be jewels along the path.



TV remotes can be really challenging. I've been known to purposely bury one under a cushion on the sofa and refuse to speak to it for several weeks.

That is a great picture - very interesting, and I like the way you think of the shape of the configuration as part of the score. My keyboard has a multitude of settings to apply different effects, and I like experimenting too, but the digital controls aren't as visual as that (just a small panel which changes depending which settings I am applying). That is balanced by the greater number of possible digital options, though, so never mind.

Hullo SashaQ! Thanks!

Yes, I love the digital format also, exploring the settings. I like the comfort of the lit up panel and the way I can get back to where I started, unlike the analogue which is a one way journey. Much more reliable for performance I would imagine.

I'm not sure how people perform with an analogue, they are somewhat erratic and you can't even store the patches.

Have you made any more videos for YouTube recently?

Nice to talk to you again, SashaQ!

I can't wait until my eyes get fixed again.

Then I will go back to working my 'analogue' keyboard - i.e., piano...

heheh. Ah yes, the good old piano. I was playing mine yesterday. A glorious break from the analogue synth, ah those chords, that melody. .

Sorry to hear about your eyes. Have you had to have another medical procedure?

Here's a kiss for you, friend.

Thanks. I haven't had it yet, but I need one soon.
