Barbeque weather

Just finished Silent Hill f - one of the best games I've played in years. Better than the sh2 remake (and that was great too).

Mixing the last* song for my next album. *Unless something needs tweaked when they're all played together.

A little bit of the Prodigy last night

Remind me to never buy earbuds again. I've lost two pairs to the washing machine this year and we're only halfway through March.

The legacy of the x0xb0x returns! An open-source, Arduino-compatible processor (as powered 303, 606, and 909), plus an upcoming DIY 303 kit, from @michigansynthworks.bsky.social #303day and some @adafruit.com memories...

It's alive! #synthsky #eurorack

New tendrils cables 🤓 Mildly inspired by @ianboddy.bsky.social

New eurorack case day! Thanks to 7873joe on eBay for doing a great job on the case. Now... Time to install the power. #synthsky #eurorack

Ardour 9.2 is out today. It's extraordinary how much depth this fully free and open-source DAW provides. And now it'll feel a lot more comfortable to users of other DAWs, too. We aren't talking enough about Ardour.

Ardour 9 has been released 🎉 the best open source DAW by far - ardour.org/whatsnew.html

Self-crate digging... I've forgotten about half of these...

My interest in any piece of music gear is usually inversely proportional to the number of embargoed reviews that drop at the same time about it.

Mixing Vocals for a new track - thanks Eth Eonel!

With great power comes great noise-ability... The power supply for my new case is here 😀 I just need the case and modules now. #synthsky

J Mascis & MBV tonight

I've started working on a video #synth project. It now renders Webcam, Game Of Life, Moire Patterns, Geometric Shapes, Noise/Snow, Solid Colour, Strobe and Video! Well - nearly video. I need to implement controls - but I've been banging my head on getting accelerated video for nearly two weeks.

It's night riding season

Mrs Switch over @ printographic.co.uk added Beat Step Pro labels to her custom patchbay labels. My favourite is Camo, with the AKAI and mint choc chip close behind. Check them out! printographic.co.uk/products/bea...

I thought I lost the sequences of one of my favourite songs. Turns out it was on an old sequencer under the title "P4"... 😀 Now I have to transfer it from the Pyramid to the Cirklon...

New reverb purchase came with an interesting label...

New guitar day 😍 Squier Bass VI in silver sparkle

These death stranding promos are getting out off hand.

Why do almost all guitar straps have leather ends?

Congratulations Eth Eonel on the new album 🎉 Sonnets 🎉 We collaborated on Sonnet 1 - a dark and atmospheric jazzy electronic mix. etheonel.bandcamp.com/album/sonnet... Look out for more Janky Switch / Eth Eonel collaborations in the future.

Here's a cool thing! Well, I think it's cool anyway. It's a device for writing new Roland expansion cards that I can use in my JV-1080 synthesizer, and it's made by a dude a few miles from my house. I got a few blank cards so I can back up the ones I own, and burn some custom romsets too. Neat!

So proud of Mrs Switch 😍 One of her prints is on public display!

Just updated my handle on here - I'm now @jankyswitch.com

I don't have anything new out, but I helped @etheonel.bsky.social with Sonnet 1 from his Sonnets project. Check out his music, it's really great. etheonel.bandcamp.com

Honestly yeah

Want to get in on the ATProtocol fun and build cool applications but don't know where to start as a Rust dev? Well, I was in the same boat! So, I took the popular Statusphere example and remade it in Rust! Complete with a minor rewrite of the tutorial for the new code base.

Now this is my kind of webpage - 70 DIY synth projects diy-synths.snnkv.com

Sometimes you just need guitar cables

Playing with my favourite toys and having done good music time.

Thanks for the lovely birthday present! Noisy presents are the best presents.

I woke up with an urge to DJ again (it's been 25 years), and may have accidentally bought a DJ controller off eBay... Wish me luck 🤞

I spent 21.5 hours rendering a 4k 3d video for a music visualiser for an upcoming track. It warmed my room up by ~3℃ #Blender #musicians
