the box you put the board in is the most expensive part of an audio dac

>mfw I didn't have sound drivers installed on openBSD and didn't notice for almost 3 months

2017-06-12 20:35:49 UTC  

everything else he just uses a focusrite audio interface

2017-06-12 20:36:06 UTC  

you can get those for like $100 now and it's studio quality

2017-06-12 20:36:09 UTC  

wow are there drivers for openbsd now

2017-06-12 20:36:19 UTC  

also >mfw audiophiles whine about their low noise opamps >open up analog mixing board >lm741 everywhere

2017-06-12 20:36:31 UTC  

well it either works or doesn't @fedora

2017-06-12 20:36:39 UTC

2017-06-12 20:36:49 UTC

2017-06-12 20:36:54 UTC  

next meme to fall for i guess

2017-06-12 20:36:59 UTC  

audio engineers in taiwan keep their analog mixing boards around and all the audio racks of hardware equipment

2017-06-12 20:37:00 UTC  

go for freebsd over openbsd imo

2017-06-12 20:37:06 UTC  

but everything's jusut done in software

2017-06-12 20:37:10 UTC  

with a good audio interface

2017-06-12 20:37:18 UTC  

freebsd sucks, don't use an operating system that not even the core devs use

2017-06-12 20:37:20 UTC  

the hardware's just there to impress producers

2017-06-12 20:37:28 UTC  

right but remember audiophools only listen to analog production vinyl records of the beatles

2017-06-12 20:37:42 UTC  

so their precious analog mixing board filled with lm741 is funny to me

2017-06-12 20:37:53 UTC  

i've got a soft spot for vinyl because that's what i remember our family using sometimes

2017-06-12 20:37:59 UTC  

when they complain about anything less than a $30 opamp in theuir headphone amp

2017-06-12 20:38:04 UTC  

the syntrend in taipei has a floor dedicated to audio

2017-06-12 20:38:28 UTC  

and 1/3 of it is a place where you can buy new or old vinyl records

2017-06-12 20:38:40 UTC  

i doubt i'll ever buy from there but it sure looks cool

2017-06-12 20:39:06 UTC  

if i had the room i'd probably get into vinyl, but mostly for archival of obscure old music nobody cares about

2017-06-12 20:39:42 UTC  

install OpenBSD

2017-06-12 20:40:18 UTC

2017-06-12 20:40:28 UTC  

XFCE is the most sexy DE out there

2017-06-12 20:40:38 UTC  

Don't fall for the Gnome bloat

2017-06-12 20:40:41 UTC

2017-06-12 20:40:45 UTC

2017-06-12 20:40:48 UTC

2017-06-12 20:40:53 UTC

2017-06-12 20:41:32 UTC

2017-06-12 20:41:32 UTC
