Ep. 120 - Standing By

Congratulations on surviving another weekend, world. Your reward? Another Monday episode of Gearbuds… what’d you expect? This week we get into a few main topics; integrating the Nord Drum with Ableton via Ableton Drummer, and the misunderstood standby switch, diving into the switch’s genesis, history, why they were implemented, and why we still use them today. Also discussed: pedalboards as Kia Stingers, Uncle Hank closing down the studio, Ritchie Blackmore, Kirk Hammett joining Gibson, Lollar changing their pickup names, the irony of The Offspring’s drummer going anti-vax, Charlie Watts, and vinyl warpage. Now go home and get yer grot box.
