General Discussion / Re: When Expensive Music Gear ...
Last post by dasilvasings - Yesterday at 04:40:14 PMI have been thinking on this for the last years, and this is why I sold my Fairlight CMI. Damn greedy developers didn't design it with bluetooth to force us to by new Fairlights every year.
More seriously, I sold my Roland JP8000 because I knew in no time I couldn't afford to repair it if something went wrong.
Odd as it seems, it is much cheaper to make music with an Ipad than anything else, even if Apple are masters in designing for obsolescence.
Because of that, I am really trying to stick with PCs, because they are (and will be?) so omnipresent. I opted for Reaper for the same reason. They look a really decent company, not obsessed with their shareholders interests.
Perhaps one day I will move definitely to Linux for the same reason.
Regarding synths, I haven't made any decision, but it is likely I will stand with midi controller and standalone VST plugins. But I have to admit it doesn't have half the fun.
Reagarding brands, I have Line6 and IK multimedia on my black list since their audio interfaces use proprietary cables. My Line6 interface uses an apple lighting cable, and they don't even sell a converter for USB-C.
I also get annoyed with this cloud obsession. Looks like everything we do must live in the cloud because it is so much better for us, bunch of disorganized idiots. Call me paranoid, but I know they are developing quantum computers so they can run AI powerful enough to understand dasilvasings' songs and try to imitate them!
Fools.

1975 was not 50 years ago. And don't get all "because math" on me.
Everyone one knows 1975 was 35 years ago
