#132I know many musicians who love using Teenage Engineerings products for making music, performing live etc.
However, I do think there is a case to be made for falling into the trap of being more interested in the gear than the thing you're meant to do with the gear.
At the very least, Teenage Engineering hardware is generally very well designed, high quality and built to last. At least this product has some creative spirit behind it. I'm in love with the merge of Medieval and Modern Electronic here!
For an example of excessive consumerism, look no further than the Eurorack[1] space. They don't call it Eurocrack for nothing!

#133Shouldn't the Latin be "instrumentum electronicum"? "instrumentalis" and "electronicum" are both adjectives. (But it's 25 years since I had to read Latin at school.)
The whole thing is covered in mock latin

Is that such a bad thing? It’s supposed to be a hobby, if geeking out on gear relaxes you you shouldn’t have to feel bad for not being productive with it.

How the hell do you replicate your sounds between performances, recordings, etc.
This must be the musical equivalent of people sending eachother zip files with source code instead of using git, lol.
EDIT: don't get me wrong, not dissing the approach! It looks glorious and I wish I could play with one once..!
