We went old school in our house. My kid was a camp counselor this summer, and caught some non-COVID "camp crud" that has kept them sick for a month. I caught it too!

About 5 years since the last plugin (Supermassive) was released.

I went into that movie knowing literally NOTHING about it. I thought it was going to be an indie heist film. Such an amazing surprise movie experience.

Not too late to start on a book! I'd buy it.

Seriously: I LOVE your photos. Reminds me of my childhood playing along the Sammamish River, before my town turned from "sleepy semi-rural Seattle suburb" to "home of Microsoft."

What IS THIS?!?!?!

(other than "the least Google-able band name / song ever)

Seriously: any links are greatly appreciated.

I might consider doing an FV-1 pedal, or something with similarly obsolete DSP hardware. I like simple things with hard limits that force me to make creative choices.

Maybe. But it would probably be a one knob fuzz.

Not joking. I've spent enough time in my life working on reverbs and things that use delays. My original entry into musical audio was breadboarding fuzz circuits, and I'd love to return to that once these next few plugins come out.

My hand got broken when I was a 9 yo playing dodgeball in gym class.

Broken by a Nerf football.

Even the nurses were laughing at me.

As far as the sound quality...maybe the chip has 12-bit A/D or D/A on it? You can run a reverb with these, but it won't sound good.

I know that a few of the Alesis Microverbs have had their code totally reverse engineered, to the point where there is an emulated processor that runs the code. So, the mystery chip might just be some microcontroller that is powerful enough to run the emulation.

EXACTLY.

Not until it is released (probably mid-May).

At least no waxing about the SONIC inspiration and development. The names of the Pleiades and Sirius modes were inspired by various UFO conspiracy theories from my youth.
