Hope it's a good one!

Uh, this is a super old thread -- but for future reference in case anyone needs... I have a pdf version of the assemblage dac 3.1 manual which has schematics/parts layout and assembly instructions (From Chris Johnson). I took a look through it...the schematics might be too blurry (not very high rez pdf) but yeah PM me if this is something you need in the future.

Weather Station's vocalists coat kinda makes me weak kneed whenever I see her in it 😜 Like if Issey Miyake did set design for a Blade Runner movie. Always down for a triple J cover.

The dream of every person of middling height, that ladderless life.

Wtf ladderless????

Oh shit, actually yes I probably should. I got a backup which is probably why I never did -- but the rubber o-ring fell apart so I had to throw it out 😜 So might be nice to have one, I just used a pot for a receptacle this time 😜

Yeah, I've never really codified a taste for interior decor -- but good natural stone, tile or wood has always been sexy to me. What made the ceiling difficult?

damnnnnn that artistic panel is nuts, doug's tile is great too.

Pictures of the master bath? 😜 I love the wabisabi of the handmade tiles.

Making a batch for some friends tonight so thought I might document it here. I made a batch for one of the MoAs where it was well received. Depending on your ice/water adding strategy it makes ~5.5 quarts. Scale accordingly. The finished result is a deliciously complex florally sweet punch that isn't too cloying where I personally cannot pick out any of the individual ingredients they just integrate to something magical. It's based on this recipe: https://jeffreymorgenthaler.com/vacuum-seal-oleo-saccharum/ With a few ingredient substitutions I've adopted by way of my cocktail guru friend Dave who intro'd me to this. I've appended the substitutions to the recipe below - highly recommended. Especially if you can find some Francois Peyrot Peche -- I bought mine from Beltramos which closed 5-10 years ago and I haven't seen it anywhere since. Have a few bottles stashed so will go searching when I start running out 😜 1 pound superfine sugar 12 lemons, peeled 16 oz Appleton V/X rum 8 oz Smith and Cross rum 12 oz Hennessy VS cognac (Substitute: Pierre Ferrand Cognac - name has changed a few times but I just go with 1st Cru) 3 oz Briotette creme de peche (Substitute: Ideal - Francois Peyrot Peche au Cognac, but Matilde Liquer's Peche okay) 9 oz Laird's applejack 16 oz lemon juice, finely strained 6 pints cold water Place sugar and lemon peels into a vaccum-seal bag and seal according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Let rest at room temperature for four hours, or overnight, until the sugar is soaked in lemon oil. When punch is ready to assemble, pour contents into an eight-quart container and add the rest of the ingredients. Makes approximately 5½ quarts. My friend Dave doesn't use the vacuum seal method for the oleo saccharum but it is very effective imo. I prep it the night before. Pictures of the oleo saccharum before/after and the booze. Will post some pictures of the final product when friends come over, going to combine it then so they can smell the magic deliciousness that is the oleo saccharum. Other Dave Notes: 1. I also dilute it with about 1/2 to 1/4 the specified water. I always put it in lots of ice which also dilutes it. But I'd adjust to your taste. You can always add more water, but can't take it out! 2. You can divide the recipe by 4 and that's reasonable for 2-3 people. Haven't ever tried to make a smaller batch... Right after vacuum sealing the Ater 12hrs, I flip and mash the bag around to try and maximize contact between undissolved sugar and peelz. You can see some of the sugar has dissolved into yellow liquid. Mmm yellow liquid. Booze LIneup Telling you guys the Peyrot is f'ing magic.

going to start this today

Yeah I'm a sucker for electropop and I like folk music too so definitely love them a lot. Oh Wonder kinda fits the same vein. It is always interesting to see what recordings scale well with good gear... definitely some pleasant surprises as well as disappointments. I went through their first album after listening to the live EP and it also sounds very, very good. Coffee is my favorite song of theirs 😜 Though Die Young has crept up as well!

These live versions sound really good on the t2/007mk1.

Looks kinda bass lite. Shoulda gone with the special edition.
