This week I’ve been focused on mixing my next EP. Will probably spend next week doing the same 😁

I print and bind the manual for any hardware I buy. Whilst undoubtedly I can discover a lot of the functionality just from experience, there’s usually some stuff that you discover from the manual that just isn’t the sort of thing you find out by chance 😊

Never tried the MPC stuff though (beyond a day with the Force before it had disk streaming), so can’t give any specific recommendations…

Cool. Also if you need funds towards hosting costs, I can manage a small monthly contribution.

I noticed the main Irish mastodon instance uses this - looks very interesting (perhaps longer term)

Let me know if you ever need help with server admin stuff. I’m not an expert, but did web dev for 15 years and still comfortable enough on the old Linux CLI.

Guess we should go ahead and start an Autechre community here so 😁

Hehe, that was me 😁

Oh cool. I had heard about Ghost years back. Completely forgot about it 😁

I’ll check it out thanks 🙏

What about artist specific communities? My most visited subreddit was always the Autechre one. You happy to see that sort of thing pop up here too?

I’ve been impressed to see the amount of development they’ve put into the Force. I bought one and returned it way back in 2019 when I realised it didn’t do disk streaming, but I see they’ve added that and a lot more since. They definitely seem committed to expanding its functionality at least.
