Cleared off my work table yesterday and part of that was moving my midi keyboard and Roland mt 120 into my room. Hooked it back up today and came up with this spur of the moment. Gas mask just felt right to wear for this song.

Silly Game Time: Okay, to help me on my quest to defeat evil, Ive been promised Aragorn's sword, Legolas's bow, and Gimli's axe. What's something in the room with you now you can pledge to the cause?
Tea's full sized MIDI keyboard (just the keyboard, nothing for it to drive)

What Do Library Staff Do All Day?
We share resources between branches!
Lots of us have ideas for programs, but sometimes those ideas come with expensive price tags. Staff members at one of NYPL's other branches were inspired by our Soundtrap presentation, and decided that they wanted to share it with their teens. Soundtrap is a free program, but not every branch has a MIDI keyboard to use with it. So now, our keyboard is on loan so that it can be used to entertain teens in a new neighborhood!
And besides, it gave me a good excuse to look up more images of animals and music from Pixabay :)

so i might be cast as a background character in a sci-fi horror film soon and the money will allow me to hopefully get a midi keyboard so i can compose more efficiently!

I got my bf a midi keyboard for Christmas but I didn't realize the learning program that came with it is behind a paywall or $150 a year. Does anyone know of a cheaper/free piano learning program?

How to start synth for beginners, in 5 easy steps:
Step 1. Buy Midi Keyboard
Step 2. Buy an iPad with ios 15
Step 3. Connect them 馃樁
Step 4. Download GarageBand
Step 5. Experiment and learn
Hi do you have any tips on how to start using and playing synths for beginners? Or any resources?? I can鈥檛 play any instruments unfortunately :(
There are online tutorials for such things, especially on YouTube - search for "synth for beginners" and like terms. Are there any synths in particular that you're looking into getting? If so, look up video tutorials that will give you a basic rundown on features and what all you can do with them. If you're not sure what you want, just keep it broad in terminology as mentioned before - "synth tutorial" or "how to play synthesizer" - I'm sure there will be good results.
Also, you can just do what I did and be purely experimental with little tutorial input. For instance, I have a Korg MS-20 Mini, which is a semi-modular synth, meaning it has modular capabilities and a full keyboard, plus it's fully analog. Take some patch cables and put them in random modules just to see what comes out, and hit keys on the keyboard to see how that further modulates the sounds as well. You'll be surprised at just how complex the sounds are that you can get!
If you have something digital and/or purely modular, the capabilities are truly endless. There's so much to play around with that I can't fully cover it all in this message, but I would suggest taking a similar "Ooh, what does THIS button do???" approach. Bang around on things and patch modules together until you find something truly sinister that you want to unleash onto the world. Digital software can further amplify whatever sounds you come up with; dive into it as well.
I know this isn't the most helpful message, but I hope at least that I pointed you in the right direction. Let me know what you decide on and what you eventually come up with!

Casio CTK-491 found in a dumpster.
Pulled this out of the dumpster, cleaned it up, popped in some fresh batteries and it works great.

Hm. Readjusting placement of things on my computer desk for better ergonomics and ability to SEE my monitors without eye strain and discomfort when working on my graphics tablet as primary view/workspace.
And now I need to rework all the wiring.
But not today.
I suspect this whole week will be a game of micro adjustments.
#still haven鈥檛 figured out the whole deal#as in- swapping out the graphics tablet#and swapping in my midi controller/keyboard+pads#thinking about how THAT is what my big sturdy monitor shelf#will be for#too bad the stand for my cintiq#makes it weight a ton and is really bulky#so very awkward#honestly#this whole computer desk is awkward#and I would not have designed it like this#but I can鈥檛 change it out#bc built in and blah blah blah#maybe in some other future place#that doesn鈥檛 yet exist?#le sigh
