Exo (and everybody): if you're going to post YouTube URLs, could you provide a few words of summary, or at least a hint what it is?

Agreed.

The Above YouTube Clip is for a service called http://www.splicemusic.com and the topic says.

"How To Make Free and Legal Soundtracks For YouTube Videos"

Yes a man can be lazy, but that was taking lazy to a new level

I've been lazy myself recently...gotta snap out of it.

Nice to know I'm pushing the envelope and breaking new ground in laziness.

My preferred evaluation strategy is also call-by-need (lazy memoized evaluation).

About that link, well it's just a toy I suppose, but something which some musicians may enjoy. Also I've recently seen examples of Flash synthesizers. It's getting powerful enough for that sort of thing - not that I believe a webpage with a Flash applet is any serious solution, but fun nonetheless.

Back in Late 80's I was at a Music Store and saw a small little keyboard with some knobs and stuff for $150 Canadian. I thought...shoot thats expensive for something that looks like a little toy.

I was buying my Roland W-30 Sampling Keyboard for $1900 at that time.

FlashForward into the future. I would have rather bought the $150 Keyboard than my Roland W-30 keyboard.

Because it turns out the little keyboard I was looking at was a TB-303.

About 4 years after leaving school and getting heavily into music creation, I saw an article in Future Music about how the Roland SH101 was becoming quite sought after. I seemed to recall that not only did they used to have 2 SH101's at school (which nobody was ever allowed to use unsupervised) but that they were also 1 red and 1 blue (i.e. quite rare).

Trotted off to the school, spoke to the music teacher and got them for 25 GBP each (one for me & one for my other music making buddy)

Sold it for 200 GBP about 1 year later.

Result! (I fucking HATED school)!

Anyway, a cute VST to play with (they had these at my school too):

I had bought a Red SH-101 with the Grip and everything, was doing some work with a House/Dance type of band. We did an appearance on TV for the Jerry Lewis Telethon which is an anual show, it was a way to make get some exposure. After we were done, we gave some interviews to local papers etc... and we left. I had brought my SH-101 with me incase we needed to use it, but we didnt...well at some point after the performance someone stole it from the back of our van.

I tried to buy another one, by that time the prices was $400 Dollars, I kept waiting and waiting and price just kept going up!!!. So in the end I overpaid $850 for a Grey one, with original manual and carry case but no Grip for it.

I've looked for Grips on EGay, but they wanted $70 U.S. + for one and I only really want a Grip just to have a complete unit.

I love jamming live on it and sampling. The Sub Bass on it is so awesome I've blown speakers on it before.

Thanks for the Link.
