You Won eBay Item:Korg MicroKORG Synthesizer.
Sick out of my mind trying to figure out how to get items BOUGHT in America SHIPPED to America (go figure, they must hate Norwegians). So I scanned eBay until I found a promising one in the UK. I'll post pictures when it arrives. As an added bonus the fund raiser will cover everything.

lol my friend has one exacly like that one, ive fooled around with it, and its awsome.
At last! We have been waiting for so long for you to get it! This is very exciting.
Preparations for KORG:
Then when the KORG arrives you'll be locked in with all the caffeine and comfort you need till you've mastered the KORG. Good luck.
- Uninstall/remove all games on computer, including solitaire if you've got it
- Buy large amounts of coffee, sport drinks (Gatorade) or other guarana-intoxicated drinks
- Clean out everything from your living room, except from table and chair/sofa
- Give Fishtied the keys to the flat (if you haven't already) and make sure she feeds the fish
Then when the KORG arrives you'll be locked in with all the caffeine and comfort you need till you've mastered the KORG. Good luck.
5. Create a Superheroes thread where...Anytime you get excited, want to scream, shout, and share...you can let us in on your MicroKorg love affair.
You know you want it.
Oh yeah, I'm sorry your Korg topic has been carried away.
guys... KOOOOOOOOORG!
You know we are excited. I have, I think, 15 dollars in that thing.

Some great suggestions here.
@koew: Surely not -all- my games? What am I gonna do if I have writer's block?
@Angri: I'll record getting intimate with it. Melting panties coming up.
But after posting pictures of me grinning like an idiot, the first thing I'll do is make a track that thanks everyone who donated. You bought this, not me, and I love you forever.

As Gandalf told Elrond when they climbed aboard the boat bound west: Thou shall not PONG!
Writer's block, smichter's flock!

Speaking of writer's block...
Alexander, the last few updates to existing songs have sounded disjointed to me. It's almost as if you're forcing yourself to finish songs that you've moved past, intergrating new ideas and structures to something old when you really want to be doing something new. It all kinda comes out like listening to a remix of a 5 year old song but the remix doesn't start until half way through. Does any of this make sense or am I just relating my own experience to an unrelated subject?

It does make sense. It's a very rare occasion that a song "makes itself" (but it happens), if you listen to a lot of the old tracks you can make out the same disjointed segments easily. Forcing a song finished is something you have to do more often than not, or you would have 1 million beginnings and no finished tracks. It can and does get frustrating, but usually when I scratch a bunch of stuff and start a working on a new passage the feel comes back (and thus a "scar" is born). It's only when I'm content with new segments that I listen through the track as a whole and try to work out if it's complete, adding more fluidity. I simply refuse to repeat, or even milk, parts of a track just because I want to get it done. So although you make a very valid point, you might be letting the observation dictate your opinion of said previews a bit much. After all, they're just that, so don't give up on the tracks just yet. Transitions are not something I spend a lot of time on until I'm content with track progression, because wise from experience those "new parts" might not stay in the track for too long ;) And yes! I always want to do something new, but if I let that dictate how a release pans out you'd have x tracks worth of 30 second-songs.
Listen to Sandjorda for instance, that track was "finished" about five times and is heavily scarred from it. (But that only makes me more fond of Sandjorda, because I did in fact finish it.)

When is it going to arrive? Any ETA? Or have fishtied already locked you in with your new baby?

Lol that went completely over my head. Think about it though, "When is it going to arrive? Any ETA? Or have fishtied already locked you in with your new baby?".
That could totally be applied with minimal misunderstanding into a discussion about an actual baby.

Awesomeness!
I am soo excited that you are actually getting it :D
I'm really sorry I couldn't contribute any funds but I'm glad my idea of getting a fund raiser started worked so well :p.
Also, sorry I haven't been around in a while school has been killing me.
Some handy things to know when you get it is that you can use the vocoder on any of the synth programs, not just the 16 under the vocoder program bank. All you have to do is select a program that you like and move the Edit Select 1 knob to voice and then the 1/Cutoff knob to VOC. It took me forever to figure that out but when I did I was real excited.
PS. A great program for vocoding is A56 ^_^

The microKorg arrived two weeks ago, customs have it. They refuse to hand it out before I pay additional taxes, which isn't too much of a problem, but them not contacting me and being unable to tell me where/what to pay when I call them is. Calling the head office in Sweden tomorrow (was closed today) to try and work out how the fuck UPS can still be in business.

i have to deal with the postal system every damn day... good luck with those assholes, they all hate their job. If you talk to them like they are stoopid they feel like they have something to prove and you might get something accomplished, either that or they will make it even harder for you those people are fucking nuts. There is a reason why there are so many jokes about postal workers being crazy, sorry and good luck!
I am fucking nuts. Don't worry, I won't kill you. But I can't say the same for my sharks with friggin' lasers!
