Time for a change, just for a while

These days my day-job keeps me very busy, I enjoy what I do but it does mean I have very little energy left by the end of the week. With that in mind, I’ve made a decision;

I will be pausing synth development (other than Quadrowave for Isla Instruments) for a while, I don’t know how long that will be. I need a change.

I’ve been playing with some old computer tech, including the PJ5 CPU project. I’ve got an old PC104plus style PC up and working (Celeron M) and I can play some games on it (Doom, Monkey Island, etc). It currently has no soundcard (well it has an AC’97 compatible one, but the games are so old they don’t see it), I’ve got a PicoGUS for PC104 coming. I’ve also gone down the Transputer rabbit hole, so that’ll something new to obsess over for a while.

I’ve also ditched windows and gone to Ubuntu, I just got so tired of all the AI rubbish and things being forced on to my PC that I don’t use, nor want.

I’m still enjoying walking Suzi and spending time with her, she is such a wonderful part of my life. So I’ll leave you with a picture of her to brighten your day.
