Nice find. Seems like a simple enough interface to remember.

just got my confirmation!

and to clarify, i’m not concerned with rushing assembly of the actual norns devices…but i have been dying to see more about the code framework (which seems complete) and start analyzing the available engines and scripts

i know additional apps are being developed as we speak but some have to done if they are sending out orders (obviously it’s out of my hands and i respect the decision to hold most of their cards close)

i’m super excited about this thing!

Unwanted band names

if you have any extra band names floating around, could you please post them in this thread? i’ve been trying to name a new project for the past 13 months and now production starts next week. i got nothing. i’ll post my failed attempts here from the studio in a few days…

lolololol @everyone

@Angela is scarily close to truth.

also, it’s a gd thrill to recognize names on shipping labels. without hype implications, you’re all going to love this thing.

I am pretty sure this machine kills fascists.
Just sayin’

Speaking of portable, Linux-powered music machines… did anyone else catch this?
