Morningstar no longer incoming

[Orvillain]

I was going to upgrade my MC6 Pro to an MC8 Pro and get the ML10X; but ... changed my mind!

I’ve had a MC8 for a while now, running it into the AXE3. Nothing it couldn’t do. I miss the standalone configuration software vs. having to use a Chrome browser to configure it but otherwise it has been rock solid.

I thought you liked to tap dance now?

 

[Orvillain]

Ugh. I changed my mind. I'm an idiot. Ignore me. Alternative plans are afoot.

I had literally just read the thread and thought "it'll be interesting to hear Orv's thoughts on the morningstar switcher once he's had it for a while".

I backed out of the thread and the title had already changed to Morningstar no longer incoming

Fucking legend

It's just gonna be too much isn't it! I'm gonna get wrapped up in a bit of gear for a month or two, then realise it didn't fix the issue, it introduced more complications, it pisses me off in this way, that way, the other way.

I just aint got the headspace for it right now.

And for what?? Not because I struggled to hit a switch, I didn't. I just completely forgot to turn it off and left a huge 10minute ambient reverb on for half a song! (Oopsie!) - it aint the right fix, I just got home super fucked off with myself and grabbed the closest sledgehammer (metaphorrrrrrrr)

No I completely get it. The more I'm out playing music instead of mucking about at home the less gear I'm actually using. I'm looking for a new board at the minute because the few pedals I'm using look pretty silly on such a big board.

I'm basically down to Fuzz, Boost, Chorus and DD500 now. I had a bunch of other stuff on there which I muck about with at home but don't actually use when playing out.

I find the more engaged I am with writing and being productive the less shit I need or want about me. I'm even back to using the same guitar I used to gig and record with. I'm pretty tempted to start moving some stuff on tbh.

I'm not gonna flog owt, but I'm not looking to add anything right now. I just need to figure out the best way to use what I've got!

I might move on some guitars, maybe. I'll probably sit on them but they're definitely not getting used.

I still need to add a reverb, neither of the amps available in the rehearsal space we used last week had it and I do have some ambient parts that would benefit from more than delay.

I was going to add another delay pedal but tbh don't think I need it. With the dd500 able to run two delays at once another one is probably unnecessary.

Im sure the audience couldn’t even tell the difference.

You're probably right, but I still feel like a massive wanker this morning.
