I’ll have to see if hypernormalisation is still on iPlayer
Edit: yes it is, well that’s not what I needed to discover at 1am with work tomorrow…

Oh so you’re telling me that my storage unit is actually incredibly well optimised for space efficiency?
Nice!
That looks like a pretty cheap subscription fee for a country ~25%.
Mine is closer to actually half, though we get healthcare and a half decent social safety net with ours.
Happy to pay it because I know I’d not be where I am now without the stuff taxes pay for
I assume this is coming at some point, tbh
I personally reckon they’re working on something YAbridge-esque to allow people to bring their VSTs to the push in standalone mode. If they can actually nail that, it’s an absolute no brainer to then release a full Linux version of the DAW and finally allow people like me to make the switch
Every time I’ve tried to run Ableton on Linux over the years (most recently about Christmas last year), it’s the VST support that lets me down. I’ve got hundreds of VSTs I’ve used in various projects over the past couple of decades and I can’t switch unless I know they all work properly—projects not loading or sounding different is unacceptable. I need to be able to open anything I’ve worked on over the years and be able to get right into the creativity without tinkering, as that is what I already have today.
Until that day, I’ve got to begrudgingly keep windows around.
You would not want to do this for latency reasons

This is either satire or another case of conservatives being entirely unable to criticise anything without also broadcasting their kinks
People who knew what they were doing with computers used Netscape until it died, those people went to Mozilla suite and then Firefox (well, Phoenix then Firebird then Firefox). But that was a shrinking minority of people on the internet at the turn of the millennium.
Practically everyone else used IE (90%+ of web traffic at its peak) and continued to do so until Google released Chrome and shone a light on how little Microsoft had been doing for nearly a decade.
Dominance was dominance however they got it, and they pissed it away through complacency, somewhat similarly to what they’re doing now.
They had internet explorer dominance, they pissed that away
They had PC gaming OS dominance, they’re now pissing that away
Oh dear Microsoft, you had everything and you pissed it away again
So… err… What are those people supposed to do about it?
Edit: Ew I didn’t see the watermark, sorry
A lot of Arnie and no “hasta la vista, baby”
Baffling

Sound fonts are effectively sample banks, a lot of earlier soundcards are basically full synthesisers just without a control panel or keys.
There will be various elements of how the operators and effects work or any nonlinearity introduced by the circuits that will not necessarily be reflected in a sound font
Most aren’t no, but the thing with synth nerds is that if they want a specific sound, they’ll dive through a flaming hoop wearing a barbed wire straitjacket to make it happen.
There are 100% a few people people fucking around with old ISA cards for musical purposes
Musicians still use MIDI
Oh I’d somehow forgotten this era
That shit was in everything non solid for like 2 years
