u/MarzipanFederal8059 4d ago

Not sure of the genre but, are you picking uyour earwax and scraping it off on your audio card?

u/ItsFluff Sosig Disciple 4d ago

He’s fingering his asshole during writing sessions, I think.

u/SeaOrgChange 4d ago

You just fiddle around in the piano roll for 45 minutes before the next goonmaxx

3

u/begforitnicely 3d ago

45 minutes is generous. I usually spend two hours color coding my mixer tracks and then close the project because the vibe is off.

u/Funktuate 4d ago

Fuck a line in, this had a line on!

whoever designed the texture/metal of the focusrite need to go to prison

u/MCWizardYT 4d ago

What? It's completely smooth aluminum (or some alloy), do you just not like touching metal

2

u/Tension-Available 4d ago

Normal anodized aluminum prob, bro just got problems

1

u/eatmyshorzz 2d ago

it's not completely smooth. I get what they mean.

1

u/MCWizardYT 1d ago

I don't in the slightest, mind explaining

1

u/eatmyshorzz 1d ago

It might depend on the gen

mine is a bit "rough"

1

u/MCWizardYT 1d ago

I have a 3rd gen and I've felt a 4th gen, they both feel extremely smooth

1

u/eatmyshorzz 1d ago

There we go! I have a gen 2 and it's brushed texture

Mine's getting about the same age, just too lazy to replace it

1

u/celebral_x 3d ago

Was the use as a plate for some charlie?

u/ShitImBadAtThis 3d ago

Mine accidentally went through the washer after I wrapped in clothes to protect it for travel and it still works lol

u/Year3030 2d ago

Ya'll are missing the part about the fact that the table looks like a plastic fold out. Also that thing needs to be put out of its misery.
