@alisynthesis Your guitar was sounding really neat the other day. When you had distortion it was really direct and when you did ethereal sounding bits it was really gradual and nice. I am curious about your guitar setup. What’s the guitar? Same colour as one of the doggies

@elifyalvac @alisynthesis

Miller is such a legend! Met him briefly during a conference in my studies. Wish I had met him maybe ONE year later because I met him basically RIGH befor leveling up my Max / PD programming skills and appreciation.
