@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 💪🏅

@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. 😅

@jimblimey.com This is the way. 🫡 🍻
@flatduckrecords.co.uk Yeah the dev explained a bit about the decision not to on the SC forum, he was keen to focus on 48k-only. The good news is he’s already planning a 128K shmup using screen paging multicolour, and AY music too.
@flatduckrecords.co.uk Pure 48k as well, no RAM paging or shadow screen. And it’s good fun!
@fuzzweed.co.uk What an honour! 🙏 ✨
It’s a very very cool project 😁🤘
@flatduckrecords.co.uk Jet Set f*****g Willy has a lot to answer for! 😆
But yeah while the “lol so random” stuff is fun, it’s great to see a singular focused idea come to fruition. Joefish has been working on this for a long time.
@sloanysoft.itch.io No way! Wow. Can confirm it made it as at least as far as Andrew Stewart Halls in my days. 😆
@sloanysoft.itch.io No, no, that sounds cool. At Stirling we had Air3 Radio, and a couple of my pals did shows just like that. I remember texting in and hearing it on the actual radio! It was a hoot. I regret not getting involved (but probably for the best as I’d’ve likely been broadcasting .tap files to no one!)
@sloanysoft.itch.io Hahahah, that’s a belter right enough. What sort of show was it?
@colinhoad.com Maybe it’s just caffeine addiction talking but I’ve come to realise that something about the ritual of it appeals to me too. Whether it’s loose leaf, a proper pot or a builder’s brew dunky bag in a mug. It’s also 3 minutes away from staring at a computer screen too!
@colinhoad.com I always found Lapsang to be A Bit Much to be honest! But I’d be sad if it went away completely. Next time I have a smokey brew I’ll raise a cup for your granny 😁 My grandfather loved a beef tea but I have absolutely NO nostalgia for that!
