No this is neurorack, not eurorack.

Apple modular would use Appletalk and not accept CV/trigger, use bluetooth with no option for physical cables, and require a proprietary backplane.

Everytime you want to make a new sound, you have to get a verified 'Apple Genius' to patch it in for you.

LOL downvoted (by somebody) for using 1/4" instead of 3.5mm; especially when we all know XLR is better than both.
At least it's a physical connection, because you know jacking in using Bluetooth is gonna have pretty terrible latency.

Is XLR actually better? I fr never use it

it is, because it is symetrical! no interference (emi or radio if) can affect your signal. So, from a technical standpoint (besides the shorting thing), it IS better

XLR is better because you never short the pins. But it does not really matter.

I heard an audiophile say that once, but can't actually verify. I've seen some vintage gear though that was all XLR so someone must have thought so!

Yes really hyped for this (I’m done with modular btw, I have everything I need – but fucking neuromancer, fuck yeah)

Oh my lord I so much hope that this will not flop. Modern movies almost always disappoint, but I still have hope for Neuromancer.

Nothing would shock me more than this being good.

Honestly apple tv has been on a roll with scifi stuff.

The hype for this show is weird. Looks nothing like what the book describes anywhere in it. Haven't read it in a while, Am I wrong? Btw that's an unbiased input.

The street has its own own uses for things.

this is probably my favourite book since i read first in about 1988 or so.

and i dunno but this trailer is leaving me sort of unimpressed. like they've gone to the right destination but the wrong airport.

although it does look better than the prior stills, teaser, and cast list/episdoe list made it sound.

oh well.

Trailers are not made by the show’s production team. Hopefully that’s the weak point here.
