  • Jamstik Studio Review: more than just a midi instrument

    I may add:

    1)  That tuning crank is magnetic. It is stored in a hole - shown on the photos but difficult to see. Other hex screwdrivers of the size will work, too.

    2)  A benefit of the headless design is that accidental detuning is less likely to occur.

    3)  Yes, the Jamstik Studio plays nicely. As a guitar, it would benefit from more controls, as addressed by the Jamstik Classic. (A work-around would be to use the controls on your guitar amplifier.) As a MIDI controller, the signal strength could be stronger out of the box. There is at least one video on YouTube addressing that.

    4)  There are other concepts of MIDI guitar.

    5)  On using MIDI over Bluetooth in general: if you don't use the Jamstik app, you may need to install the (free) "driver" that Korg created for the purpose. In Apple's App Store, it reads "Bluetooth MIDI Connect".

  • Apple fails bid to get 'Think Different' trademark restored in EU

    If you’re an American company, good luck getting a favorable ruling in the EU no matter how right you are. 
    You and I "think different".  :-)

  • Google suspends Huawei's Android license, forces switch to open-source version

    I don't feel comfortable with the "Backdoors Inside" my Macs and PCs. Don't know who designed the Cortex cores in the Kirin SoCs in my Huawei devices. (I'm in the EU.)
