While I missed out on the CP/M train, I do remember GEM very well. I grew up in a printing company and spent a lot of time in the prepress parts of the company - around the layout and art folks. There was one employee who brought his o

I was also considering the effect of how silent computing used to be. It created a tension and expectation when waiting for an image to appear like waiting for a curtain to open on a play. So when the artwork appeared, the artists worked to

I really need to carve out some time to look at this and compare to Renoise. The in-line representation of automation/effects look absolutely killer to me as I usually have to manage a lot of that in my head when working.

For those asking how this is different than other non-tracker DAWs, the answer is basically "this is a tracker". For those not familiar, trackers are a type of music composition software that's been around in one form or anot

I've been bearish on the JWST in the past. I've thought it an investment in science that could have been made better by waiting a bit for cheaper heavy lift and advances in computational imaging. However, this is the culmination o

Is there anyword on integration with Batocera, ES-DE, or Retroarch? Those mega systems would get supercharged with it. The homelab community would likely catch on very quick.

RomM is a great project! I've so excited to see the integrations coming along. As somebody who's setup a lot of little retroboxes, the idea of doing it once and having my collection served off of my homelab to all my other devices
