I owned an Ensoniq ESQ-1 for over 20 years and LOVED it. I had to sell it when moving to Maui. Today I saw that @arturia_official was selling the SQ80 V VST, which pretty faithfully emulates the old ESQ-1. I am thrilled! Best yet, you can upload all your old ESQ-1 sysex patches. It's like bumping into an old friend. Half off until October 5th.

It was so nice to hear real live music again this

It was so nice to hear real live music again this weekend @mauiartsculture for the Ki Ho'alu (Slack Key) Festival. The weather was perfect, the music sublime. It was almost like real life had returned.

Fell into the rabbit hole of auditioning cabinet IRs. The cabinet has the biggest impact on your guitar sound than any other component. I spent about four hours listening to the same riff through different cabs.

First backpack into #Haleakala crater. 7.5 miles each way plus 3000 ft. climb. Beautiful but exhausting.
