@nomenluni.ie Ooh thats good. 🤩

=======================
FACTBOX: you can achieve similar by prodding the Spectrum’s innards with a paperclip!

(But probably only once). (Don’t @ me).

@nomenluni.ie Here’s a one-liner:

@nomenluni.ie Haha! Love it.

@nomenluni.ie Hahaha, d’oh! 🤣

@nomenluni.ie Don’t worry, this was a staged reenactment. No tapes were stressed or chuntey fields perturbed in the production of that screenshot! 😅

@nomenluni.ie Scariest of all…

@breakintoprogram.co.uk Yass! You’ve got my vote (Do we get to vote? I’ve never paid attention until now!)

@breakintoprogram.co.uk Amazing!

@robertprice.bsky.social Yeah the blue boxes look really smart. I’ll admit I’ve never fully fastened mine down as I’m always taking the lid off to adjust this or that!

@robertprice.bsky.social Beautiful!

@sonicyoda.neocities.org TFW it’s Friday and you control all the aces 😎👍♠️

@robertprice.bsky.social Ah nice, yes I’m sure it will come!

@robertprice.bsky.social Did you get the optional ROM module? I love the tactile kachunk of the toggles (I’ve got the WBW front panel and can’t stop fiddling with the switches!) but I dunno if I’m ultra-hardcore enough to run a “pure” Orton 3C! I can imagine it’s pretty meditative either way though.

@robertprice.bsky.social Very cool! The 3C is pretty hardcore! Are you building the full enclosure setup?

@fuzzweed.co.uk Yeah I’m sure I read somewhere that if it’s velocity zero it can (should?) be treated as an immediate note off?

@fuzzweed.co.uk If it’s any consolation I’ve definitely run into that before! Sounds like something that would be good to handle anyway?

@fuzzweed.co.uk Woaft.

@flatduckrecords.co.uk Especially upsetting because I did remove the batteries! There must have been some leakage I didn’t spot. It had only crept as far as the solder joint so I think the actual board is perfectly fine. Fixed now; hopefully it keeps going a while longer!

@flatduckrecords.co.uk Phew, I think we’ve saved it. I’m looking forward to enjoying Barry’s tunes! In the meantime we’ve got auld Dario G to keep us going. 😅
