Has anyone let gear go and come to regret it – like the people in this article from Production Expert?
My biggest regret was letting someone have my WASP synth & Spyder sequencer. They weren’t working but I wish I had got them repaired as they are being sold for prices between £600 and £1400 n…Read More4 Comments-
My first “stage amp” (my Dad and I built a small Heathkit for my $29 Tiesco first guitar 🙂 was a 1965 Fender Twin Reverb and I still have it. BUT I blew the speakers (somehow) and instead of having the Jensens re-built (like my Dad advised), I bought el-cheapo nameless replacements (hey, they’re rated at 200W- what else matters?) and tossed the…Read More

Just like the guy in the article, I had a Roland Juno 60 that I got new in 1984 (was actually my first polysynth that I ever owned!). Sometime in the late 1990s, while it was still in great working condition, I let it go for a steal! I was diving headlong into digital stuff , and figured it was headed toward the ash heap. Bad call there.…Read More

Just before we moved from Bradford to York I invited people round to take any vinyl albums that I either had CDs of or could hear on Spotify (before I realised what robbing g*ts they were)! I only kept my more obscure folk & prog stuff. Big mistake!

It’s all deeply disappointing after the positive early days of Bandlab rescuing the software. To not consider the needs of disabled users in the 21st century is shocking! I’d read about the removal of workspace access on the Creative Sauce Cakewalk Facebook forum and I was shocked. I am hoping it is a mistake! They didn’t mention that in the release notes!

The first drum kit I ever had, which I bought at around age 7, was a Camco. It was a white pearl kit. It sounded great, but I wanted something that looked cooler. So maybe when I was 12 or so, I was persuaded by a guy at the local music store that this cool-looking blue kit — a garbage low end kit made in Taiwan called Royce — for around $400 was…Read More
