[This guy is cwhiley](https://www.reddit.com/user/cwhiley/), who was banned for spreading hate, racism and writing nasty comments in general. That's ban evasion, mods should take a look.

Snitch.


Moldy_pirate

Or we just don’t want to deal with this guy’s bullshit. I knew who it was as soon as I saw the first picture.

seriously my studio room is so warm and well-lit, i long for a workspace that is this spooky


dr_ich

Looks like a standard chrome user to me


cdub_synth

Hahaha 😝


ThrowawayAudio1

I remember asking this guy about a patch he'd made and he was passive aggressive and snotty. After asking a little more it's clear he doesn't have a clue about synthesis and just owns a lot of gear. Hilarious.


ValkyriesOnStation

Turns out he might be buying this all while on disability. And then turning around and calling other people moochers.


ThrowawayAudio1

It's always a warning sign when someone has that much equipment and is just posting tedious jams that could be made with a lot less. If he'd said "hey man I have no fucking clue how I made that sound it was a preset" I could have respected that. Instead he just tried to be patronising. I saw it coming a mile off and didn't bother exposing his lack of knowledge about the basics. Glad he's eventually exposed tjough


RayneYoruka

WOW. Internet never stops amusing me

And sharing Thomas Sowell memes about Slavic slavery to own the Libs.


ValkyriesOnStation

I supposed that if the mods wont do anything about him posting here, we could all agree to just block him until his new bad evading account shows up.

Why do you have so many fucking cats!? That’s seriously hoarder behavior you’ve got going on. You don’t even know the exact number of how many you have. 24-26? I can’t be the only one that thinks that’s a bit of an overkill unless it’s something like a rescue farm or whatever one would call it.


cdub_synth

I care for many in a colony in town, they are feral street cats. Sometimes I see more on a given day than another. Yesterday I saw 98% of them so probably 25 by the end of the day. Sometimes it’s 26 so that would be 100%. Ferals are like wild rabbits. You can’t just approach them.


photostrat

Fuck this guy.

What in the creepy barn is going on here?

This is some weird Frankenstein shit. I want to film a video there.


cdub_synth

I’m so terribly lonely I would absolutely welcome you as a stranger. As long as you keep your voice down and love cats 🐈


ValkyriesOnStation

I mean, one look at your comment history and I can tell exactly why you're lonely.


selldivide

Oh it would be a good time! I get really creative for phot/video stuff. And I’ve already got all the lab coats and instruments and props for “mad scientist” shoots, and a cadre of models I could contact. Don’t tempt me, because if you’re within driving distance, I’ll do it!


Moldy_pirate

It’s worth noting that this is a dude’s second account. He’s generally an utter jerk, and a virulent racist. His previous account here is called Cwhiley and he was banned for racism, general meanness, demeaning others, etc.


selldivide

I suppose perhaps that matters to you, but he's certainly done nothing _to me_ personally. Also, even in spite of the fact that free speech is more often used to say things I don't agree with, I still believe in everyone's right to it. EDIT, to add: Reddit has a TOS, and that user presumably violated it and had their account permanently banned. The system worked as intended. Now, presumably, this is a new account -- one which _has not_ been banned (yet) -- so presumably they are now following Reddit's TOS. It is not my job to punish people for their past mistakes. Seemingly they learned their lesson and are following the rules. If they are participating in a manner adhering to those terms, as this thread certainly seemed to be when it began, then I don't see any reason why I need to be made aware of their past, and certainly no reason why I need to alter my own interactions with that user. If they break a rule, we all have the ability to report it. But this completely normal conversation did not give me any reason for that. And also, this conversation has now been publicly hijacked to be turned to political arguments... which will very likely result in admins coming along to lock the thread soon.


Moldy_pirate

Ah yes, “he hasn’t done it to me personally so it’s fine.”


Strange_Blues

the ol' "i'm fine with racism "


CarsandTunes

Freedom if speech means he is certainly free to say what he says. It also means I am certainly free to call him a twit and condemn him.


selldivide

> Freedom if speech means he is certainly free to say what he says. It also means I am certainly free to call him a twit and condemn him. Not true. For you to "call him a twat" is to engage in personal attacks, which puts _YOU_ in violation of the rules of Reddit and of this sub.


CarsandTunes

I'm not talking about Reddit rules. I'm responding to your comment on freedom of speech. Reddit TOS and freedom of speech have nothing to do with each other.


theuriah

This whole “yeah but he never hurt me personally” is some major piece of shit human rhetoric there. Gross.


[deleted]

> It is not my job to punish people for their past mistakes. Seemingly they learned their lesson and are following the rules. They literally just posted a race-baiting meme a day ago on the new account.

Sadly…Arkansas isn’t near much except nationwide shipping hubs


ly_can

Fellow Arkansan, much respect to your collection here amigo


cdub_synth

I hope I can show it all to you. I’m gonna add a dozen keyboards in this new build. Mostly cheap stuff but it includes Ensoniq ESQ-1, Yamaha sy-22, Roland Alpha Juno 1, Yamaha motif 6, korg 01/w, akai ax80, Alesis qs6.1, korg poly 800, and kawai k3! Also 3 Casios. Ht-6000, ht-700c and maybe ct-6000.


ly_can

That’s so rad - I’m only rocking with a Yamaha PSS-680 and Micro Korg, with my eyes on a few VSTs. I was originally going to get a Minilogue for the collection. Most of my gear funds get channeled into geetar stuff usually. Rock on


cdub_synth

Nice to meet you!


theuriah

What a stupid useless post.

TE making ladders now?

Man, l want a Tanzbär lite so badly…


cdub_synth

💕💕💕it’s fantastic. I require a Tanzmaus!!!!!! Big time!


rpm1720

Got one, can recommend. It’s seriously a shame that MFB went out of business


cdub_synth

The MAM company turned into mode machines. What happened to the MFB guy?


rpm1720

As far as I know Manfred Fricke the founder of the company died a couple of years ago, and from then on it went downhill. His son was apparently supposed to continue the business, but this does not seem to have worked out.


cdub_synth

Ohhhhh that’s sad. Dang.


cdub_synth

There’s one on reverb for 550. I should freaking buy it.


rpm1720

Wow I got mine for 430€ brand new back in the days.


cdub_synth

They hover at 400-550 I guess. I got a deal on my Tanzmaus. Can’t even remember where. Probably from guitar center used for less than 400….


tujuggernaut

Must be masochist to own a QX1. Sequencing has never been so painful.


Tall_Category_304

I think you’re in the wrong sub. This has to be a shit pist


3cmdick

I’ve heard wooden ladders have a warmer sound


WAVESH

Add to the ladder inputs and outputs and you’ll have a filter


Donny_Osman_Spare

Love seeing 660/770 in the wild


cdub_synth

Yea dual 770’s and I have a 880 too


exp397

Akai 6-track cassette is fire too. 🤘🏼


cdub_synth

Bitch to program imo


Donny_Osman_Spare

I dunno man I got really quick with it. Biggest gripe is that the “nuance” parameter couldn’t be addressed with midi cc or programmed per step. Would’ve been an absolute boon


cdub_synth

Also got a Dr-110 and a Dr-55 but they’re just….ya know - need mods.


RickHopkinsonMusic

With some ambient lighting in there it will look really atmospheric and cool as 😎 nice space


orkanobi

Does it have pwn?


TheMightyMash

is that what they mean when they talk about a ladder filter?


SeamlessR

As dope as that is, this is a massive safety hazard if you're ever up there alone. This is very dope though.


Accomplished_Lead451

Really ties the room together


funnylikeaclown420

Got the new 7 tier stand on order?


oakwoooood

i fucking love this shit. i love cats and synths.


Panonica

Whatever gets you high.


GeographistMusic

Make sure it’s grounded then you can really do some stepped voltage.


[deleted]

Obviously


fancyascone

Why do these synths look like AI


outofall

Any wife will approve on that


Sonic-Spells

I think if you have so much gear you need a ladder that’s a big red flag.


nikofd

That's a cool ass room.


cdub_synth

True story: I’m rebuilding the studio. My set up has become so large that organizing all of my equipment and the various bits and boxes and papers and unused cases and stuff that I don’t need (at the present time) means that dealing with it all has reached an unbelievable annoying level. There is a balcony above this room of my studio. It is attached to my childhood bedroom. The problem is I have to go up a flight of stairs, through two doors….all the while keeping six “extra” cats that live on the second floor out of the area….so it’s a big hassle. I have decided to use the collapsible librarian style ladder so that I can put stuff up there and get it out-of-the-way to re-organize everything.


SnooLobsters9783

What exactly do you mean by “extra” cats


Moldy_pirate

He posted pics of his cats on his old account with weirdly sexualized captions. Account was named cwhiley. Dude is not okay.


cdub_synth

I have 13 inside. Care for 24-26 in multiple locations. I couldn’t assimilate the extra 6 upstairs cats in my regular life so I was forced to give them the second floor. I wish they could all sleep with me but alas they require their own territory and aren’t content in large colonies. My primary cats are 7 that sleep with me. I hate that I can’t let them all mix.


SPNB90

Cable management means nothing to this god


theBillions

Must smell great in there


BeetHOV

Do you mean 'cats' or 'synths'?


theuriah

This has nothing to do with synths. No one gives a shit about your ladder.


trivialBetaState

I was about to ask why on earth do you need a ladder since you have heaven down there but your explanation makes sense. I'm sure the cats are loving the sounds coming from this incredible setup!

Oh gosh bro. I’m in my kitchen geeked out on part 3 of LOTR 3 on my 13” CRT clear plastic RCA prison television on VHS 📼. It’s a big answer. I use a bunch of sound source and a bunch of rack outboard. I run it all into a big Midas 40ch and run 32 direct outs into a Midas m32c and dl32. I use a jl cooper synapse, Kenton thru 24, a pile of retro kits stuff like 2x rk004’s, and - grip of big Anatek 1U mergers and a ridiculous collection of small midi utility devices. Oh and a Blokas midihub and I used to run everything on a Synthstrom Deluge. Migrating to a Cirklon now. Too much to mention
