Seems to be a misunderstanding. I like the idea of smeck for doing
experimental music. If I had enough money I would test it too, but as
you see, even for people who have hex pickups it needs effort to enable
the usage of smeck.
I guess there's nothing wrong to encourage
somebody who guess that he isn't
able to play guitar, that he anyway should play guitar and ignore bullshit
like stupid guitar playing, similar to the Roland synth way. This was what I
did.
what possible relevance does this have to LAD? miller puckette made
something possible, and you sounded to me as though you were
complaining that what he did was a bad idea because it doesn't fit in
with your ideas of aesthetic creation. i have my own ideas about good
and bad and terrible ways to make music, and the results thereof, but
i generally try to keep this to myself, and certainly keep it off LAD.
i found your commentary on miller's work rude and insulting, both as
a wannabe musician and as a developer of FLOSS. if you are not
interested in what he has done, then just don't bother to comment upon
it.
of course, i may have misread your comments.
