This seems like it’d be right up my alley. I’ve fallen in love with using Mirack (iOS VCV Rack) as an effects processor, ever since they added AUV3 support a few weeks ago. (Drambo is amazing for this as well) .. God I love how fast music technology is progressing lately :)

@@lorrenaelliott161 Drambo is a very powerful modular Groovebox/DAW with an Elektron style sequencer. Very much beloved by fans of Octatrack and other Elektron hardware. MiRack is like a virtual eurorack modular system. (A version of VCV rack for iOS) - where you patch different modules together for synthesis, effects, sampling, sound design. AUV3 is the audio and midi plugin format on iOS/iPadOS - similar to desktop VSTs in form and function.

Nah, keep letting it go on, this word hasn’t found it’s final resting place and it’s history is fascinating. I’m from the hood, and it does suck and it is shitty but it’s also home and when I’m here I wanna get out and when I have before I’m still filled with a warmth and like to reminisce when I come back to visit, and I’ve never once been offended by it’s usage. Occasionally someone uses it in a context that is extremely negative, but it still doesn’t offend me, it just exposes their ignorance and prejudices. It’s only because it has been allowed to exist that it has organically come to be expressed in a more positive light recently like “ghetto fabulous” and can stir a sense of camaraderie in people from there. Languages are organic, living things and should be treated as such and allowed to run their course, not be dictated by this small, over zealous group of social justice/pc warriors. My two cents
