After playing with D-lusion’s ‘Rubberduck’, which is actually fun, I skidded towards the Propellorheads’ ‘RebirthMuseum’ site to see if I could try it. Yes, I ‘ve read today’s Slashdot discussion about this one too. If I remember correctly, the link(s) first appeared at Metafilter (can’t find the link: pretty shitty search mechanism at MetaFilter).
It’s a big download apparently: a 215 MB as a torrent file (so this means I need to get Azureus or other torrent client first2), so I decided to wait for that one for now. I’m not in a hurry, since I’m not into garage or ‘drum and bass’ music1 3. It’ll be fun only because I know how to work with machines and trackers like these.
Imagine how expensive home-recording, sampling and sequencing was back in the 80s.
1 I was going to add a footnote here, but I forget.
2 I’ve never seen any use in bittorrents (besides finding Slackware one’s), so Azureus was installed and removed a many times.
3 Right, I remember: I hardly listen any music. A couple of months ago, I managed to get some of my musical collection in MP3 format, but honestly, I hardly listen to them.
