naaahhhh bridges are tuff

violin and viola tuning pegs however set off my big dumb bass brain alert

STRING TOO THIN

BIG STRONG BASS HANDS BREAK

:saddowns:

I can see that for sure. To be honest, the Violin is a strange, disconcerting beast to me. All of the parts of my instruments (increasingly even for classical guitars!) are made of metal and graphite and space age technologies (literally -- the best guitar amps still use vacuum tubes). Violins and violas are like, you're a kid, and someone hands you a baby, expecting you to know what to do with it. Here's this small thing, in your hands and you're overwhelmed by how delicate it is, and every neuron in your body is screaming at you and all you can think is

I had a big video game crush on Amarant when I first played this game. I still like his art but looking at his in game model I'm not sure how that happened.

and if that wood is (painted) green or black or purple it must be THE BEST WOOD!!!!!

on the other hand, some of these violins I'm working on have been used for 20+ years and they still sound great even if they look... extremely loved (or unloved)

but yeah violins and string instruments in general are much tougher than they look. good quality instruments in general are much tougher than they look. just try not to drop them

they are! and i should know this! maybe i should just acclimate by continuing to increase my instrument collection. I'm already an entire orchestral woodwind section and a small guitar shop.

actually that could be kind of fun... get one of everything and record fifty string takes, and a couple dozen wind takes. do a one-woman recording of some phillip glass or something

I still have a big backlog and some games I really want to try speedrunning (so more than just a single playthrough with those) but I still want to get more games I haven’t played when I see deals and whatnot

First part of FF9 is done. Didn't watch all of it but what I watched it was fun and commentary was active the whole time.

Now I guess we are on our way to Arabian Nights.
