Walk into a grocer and ask for 1.026 * 10^-5 of saffron or whatever and see what that gets you, knob.

Well... of course it's stupid to ask that. You didn't even specify what the number represents. Tons?

If I asked for 3.7 x 10² coffee, they'd think I was mentally deranged. Lucky I DON'T do that, and just grab it in the handy 1 x 10⁹ microgram bags.

1) I choose not to take drugs... I prefer my sanity and being in total control of myself.

2) I've got no need to take them. I'm not against someone who is in major pain from using weed or cannabis (or whatever they take) for chronic pain.

Not a big fan of jews in show business, I take it.  Well....there are some hard truths I must divulge to you one of these days.

Some of the best comedians in the past half century have been Jewish... what do you have against them? A lot of them are brilliant.



3) Is that whingy pregnant dog still pissing on about me? This is laughable. It's been over 2 months now.

Yep he certainly has a micro lol. Look at the hissy fit, change your pink panties.

He think that if he ignores me it means I shouldn't say anything about him, that's what someone who believes the universe revolves around themselves would believe. The thing is it's too easy to make fun of him and funny as, full of winningness and making him losingness.

It's good that others are starting to see how sad LiiW is starting to look. I've maybe commented on his inane and idiotic comments 3-4 times maybe, in the last 10 weeks. I suspect if I were to trawl through the last 10 weeks of his comments, I bet it's nothing but him whining and ranting about me behind my back because he has NOTHING better to say.

Now we know who is 'really' obsessed with who. Seemingly I live rent free in his head for some odd reason.

I guarantee you do not consider me mature.  I'm a gun nut who carries often locked-and-loaded in public, and ridicules your beloved Simpsons and video games.

By any measure, I am a childish, crude man with little capacity for empathy!  Especially not for the children.

And I yearn for a supply of kangaroo scrotes!

So what you're saying is that you'd like even more cat pictures?

I'm surprised, but of course I'm happy to oblige.

Ethnic women. 

Thick guitar strings.

The Kawai MP11se digital piano and if its Rhodes, Wurlitzer, and Clavinet sounds are competitive with Yamaha's.

Reinstalling Arch Linux without screwing up my other partitions.

It's a burden we who are in surplus of testosterone must bear.

[perfect_pitch]

Reinstalling Arch Linux without screwing up my other partitions.

Talking about ethnic woman can be seen as racially profiling them... so not a great topic of conversation.

Thick guitar strings are moderately decent for strangling someone without them cutting into your own skin as you hold it tight.

Most of the sound effects now are almost identical when it comes to Roland, Kawai, Yamaha - you name it.

...and I don't see how hard it is to install Limux without screwing up the other partitions. The other partitions are assigned to (I presume) other OS systems like Windows, so you've designated a partition almost like it's own drive. Installing it shouldn't be that hard.

Is it that hard to type 'pain in the arse'? It's almost therapeutic as well typing exactly what you feel. Shortening it like that is probably akin to suppressing what you really feel.

[j_tour]

Yes. 

It's almost therapeutic as well typing exactly what you feel.

Yes, I agree, but I'd be very sorry to spoil such a pleasant environment with my crude language.

I did find it therapeutic of a kind to have received from Vega Holster their shoulder holster, and after adjusting it, I think it is a good option.  It does not conceal very well, but it is comfortable for fairly heavy, all steel pistols....in these two instances, a FS 1911 double-stack with 18 rounds of 9mm loaded, and a FS 1911 with 8 rounds of 45ACP loaded.

Arch and Windows are two of the whiniest bitches when it comes to unpredictably *** up the EFI partition.  Even if I hand over everything to rEFInd bootloader.

Most of the sound effects now are almost identical when it comes to Roland, Kawai, Yamaha - you name it.

Oh, really.  So, identical actions, identical samples or modelling approaches, and accessibility of on-board effects (reverb, delay, envelope filters, EQ).

Anyway, the best of these creations are now getting five or six years old...the Kawai MP11se, the Yamaha CP88/YC88, or the Korg SV-2. 

Any one of them will do the job for acoustic and electric pianos, seeing as how they'd all be amplified and sent through speakers of various qualities.

But one can easily prefer one action over another, or one interface over another, &c.

I mean, let's be honest. A lot of these keyboard synthesized voices are pretty generic sounding anyway. It's not like proper DAW's where there is gigabytes of sound data for each instrument and for each note.

And yeah, put each of them to a crappy speaker and it will probably sound like a terrible recording from the 80's, like people did when recording from the radio onto cassette tapes.

Excuse me... I've had to play on many various digital pianos, adding backing instruments for strings, bass parts for many bands, orchestras etc...

While I love the acoustic piano, if I have to play a digital but get paid for it - I do it.

Or like when one is reproducing an acoustic piano recorded with best-practices microphone technique in a treated room.

And exactly which Digital Piano libraries have you ever used? Garritan, Kontakt??? Any of those or are you just dumping on them?

I used Kontakt Grandeur when making my recordings for iTunes. They were pretty damn good - and this was recording from a crappy Roland F-130R, granted it was 10 years ago.

Nobody is dumping on meticulous sample-based technology. 

I believe most session keyboardists in, say, Nashville, use something like Ivory or whatever the latest is.  No I've not had the need or interest to go to the latest and greatest, but I've no doubt they are indistinguishable from a well recorded acoustic piano on record.

But there's not a comparison to be made. 

Am I going to fire up my air-gapped computer machine, with the DAC and the interface just to shred a Bach fugue or whatever for two minutes walking out the door?

No, of course not.

And not all controllers are made the same way either.

At some point, it becomes analogous to people who....I don't know...buy Harley-Davidson motorcycles and spend years making them satisfactory....or the similar with 1911-form handguns.

These instruments all have different uses and, with enough demand, they are available in all sorts of levels of complexity.

You've missed the point. 

And I said it in one simple sentence:  when the sound is reproduced through the best headphones, or the best monitors, in the best treated room, it's still a recorded sound.

No matter the source:  a properly mic'ed acoustic or whatever else.

That is where the chain of fidelity stops:  in the listener's environment.

Very much an argument in favor of live performance in good halls, however, could be a phlegmatic acceptance of the Sachverhalt.

I certainly didn't deny that, but the gap between proper acoustic, and recorded sound is getting closer and closer.
10 Years ago, the camera on your smartphone was absolutely SHOCKING compared to a proper DSLR camera, however nowadays the difference between each smartphone and the DSLR camera is getting smaller and smaller to the point where the differences become more and more minute.

Don't be sorry... to me it's a good track of whether he's starting to lose the plot. It used to be years apart where we would see font misses, but now it's happening more and more.

That's absurd.  Live sound in a live hall cannot be reproduced by any amount of speakers in a treated room. 

There's simply not a comparison between live and reproduced sound, and never will be.

And by "live," I mean no sound reinforcement whatsoever.  Except a very good space in which the performance happens.

Well, I disagree that any speakers and room treatment will reproduce except very roughly a live performance in any kind of room.

That said, Pee Wee agrees.



I also submit that P_P doesn't know what in the hell he's talking about.

For he is a nerd.




I don't believe PP realizes that many Australians have indeed competed in pistol and rifle competitions at the highest level, and among connoisseurs, some of the better gunsmiths and other knowledgeable sorts in the world happen to be from that cove of convicts.

No, provided one is not feeble minded, it is very much possible for an Australian to own and fire handguns of many types.  It may not be a good use of one's resources, but it is very much probable.

But don't wait up too late....I anticipate another incoherent screed about guns or something from the penal colony.

Since you're a nurd, you might find the modular nature of such devices interesting, insofar as it resembles the Sig-Sauer separation of the frame from the fire control unit. 

Autisticapable people like modularity, right?  And that's why we have mere reproductionists, rather than artists these days.  Because of vaccines.  Or something.

And enough of this nonsense about legato octave arpeggios.  Just read through the Haydn Sonata in D, Hob. XVI:51 at the keyboard, as I just did.

There's really not very much in most of Beethoven's piano repertoire that can't be found in Haydn or elsewhere....Beethoven really took existing patterns and made them a bit more extreme. 

Technically speaking, that is:  in terms of mechanics at the keyboard.  The quality of music can be discussed elsewhere.  Et sim. Chopin, I will venture to say, as a mere technician.

I'd question the teacher who "assigned" *Les Adieux* without some guidance about how to perform those elementary voicings at the octave or at the sixth.
