How one leverages “rough draft” implementations to build feature faster. There are some good arguments for that method in the article. A good read.

How I build software quickly

Know how good your code needs to be for the task at hand. Start with a rough draft. Try to soften requirements if you can. Don't get distracted. Make small changes. Practice specific skills.

1968年製のマーシャル・プレキシは使ったことがないけど、UAFX Lionは本当に素晴らしい。最近自宅練習時にアンプじゃなくてLionばっかり使ってるんだけど、楽しくてたまらない。ダイナミックも表現力も最高！

I’ve never played a Marshall Plexi from 1968 but wow does the UAFX Lion sound and feel good! I’ve been using it instead of my amp for home practice these days and I’m having a lot of fun ! Such a dynamic and expressive amp, I can’t stop playing it.

The setup used yesterday during recording. They let me crank it up to about 2 o'clock.
It's so loud so it's unusable in the context of a band practice. But like they say, pushing the power section of a tube amp feels very good. The sound was so much better.

昨日のスタジオ録音で使ったアンプ。ボリュームを2時のところまで上げさせてもらえた。
音量があまりにも大きくてバンド練習の時にそれまで上げられないんだけど、やっぱり真空管アンプのパワーアンプに負荷をかけると音が良くなる。自分で経験できてよかった！

Dialing in an overdriven sound

Overdrive pedals usually have 3 knobs: volume, gain and tone. You may be thinking that they’re easy to set up; the volume knob sets how…

There's a lot of very valuable information in this video, especially related to headroom and the different clipping points in a signal chain. Very good stuff!

今日スタジオでFender Twin Reverb Tone Masterを使ってみた。とてもいいアンプだな。軽いし、パワーコントロールはとても便利。その陰で、うるさくならずにボリュームを9まで上げられた。便利！

stouf @moewb.bsky.social · Feb 26

I played a Fender Twin Reverb Tone Master in the studio today. Great amp! Super light and the power control is so useful. I could crank the amp up to 9 without being too loud, that’s super nice!

Detox, the last album from One Ok Rock, is soooo good. I haven’t listened to such a great album in quite a while.

I own one, I love it!

Just make sure that your amp is a little gainy otherwise it sounds fizzy. With an amp on the edge of breakup, it sounds fat and gorgeous.

That pedal is old; it was designed based on what amps were back then: cranked up ☺️
