Control Arcade Machine

I have an arcade machine with over 30,000 games on it. It tears up normal hard drives, makes them run super hot and slow. I have had several hard drives go up on me because it is trying to access to much date. This SSD was expensive but worth every penny. The games run 10 times faster and this hard drive never heats up. If you have a MAME arcade machine this is the answer.

This compact 80's arcade themed micro drum machine provides endless amounts of entertainment.

This has been great for printing decals for our arcade machines.

Perfect feature set for small gaming arcade. Modules allow configuration for all sources. 70v output perfect for distributed speaker system.

Performs well for our arcade side art project. very easy to apply with peal and stick backing and and a Bondo plastic spreader to remove bubbles. Great price too. Printed with K3 UltraChrome Inks on Epson 4880. At some point we will probably buy some 3 mil PSA Luster Calendered UV Vinyl Laminate to really protect the artwork.

The well-made and sturdy, almost arcade game style push button knobs are a perfect companion to Adobe Lightroom. One of the most useful gadgets I have purchased. I use them in conjunction with all the other Palette products but they are maybe the most useful. I have set them up to 'Edit in Photoshop', 'Increase Rating', 'Crop Tool', 'Before/After' and 'Undo'. Once you get used to the new way of controlling your workflow, they rock!

I am using the usb corder in combination with a Neutrik usb male/female converter on my custom arcade stick for playstation 3 and xbox 360. It works perfectly, no lag in the cable and is the perfect length for sitting on the couch and playing/practing. + Long cord + Lagless + Easy connecting and disconnecting with no issues. Will purchase again should anything happen to my current cord.

If you are an arcade stick enthusiast like I am (actually, Hitbox enthusiast) then you'll eventually come across the need for a Neutrik style connector. This connector is the best you can get for USB B to A connection. The Neutrik connector fails and can be easily damaged, because that connector is reversible and not built as solidly as this one. The Neutrik I had in my Jasens Customs Panzer 3 Hitbox started failing and losing USB connectivity randomly. I bought one of these and it's been rock solid with no issues for a couple of years now. Definitely recommend this. Pick one up now if you need this type of connector!!

I tried the Obsbot tiny on a Win10 machine and a M2 Macbook Air. The control app loaded fine, and the camera was controllable via local mouse movements. Video quality at the best setting was good, better than the native Macbook cam. I did not test audio

The Korg Volca Beats is a joy to use. The analog tones - kick, snare, toms, and hats - really are the heart of this little machine. They sound so fantastic and their control is minimal but covers a wide range of tonal shaping possibilities. The hats are the standout. The grain knob really has a unique element of sonic control. I bought the Volca Beats, again after having one many years ago, specifically for the sound of the hats. Programming with MIDI notes is the way to go here. You could definitely do a cool one-bar performance on this beast especially getting crazy with the Stutter function but, for my purposes, writing techno-electronic tracks, MIDI note triggering from a DAW is ideal. For fine control, I recommend sequencing your MIDI notes and then recording samples of each instrument for use with sampler instances in your DAW. This way you can adjust the phase of each sample to really gel everything as opposed to having a random analog phase to each tone. Also recording samples allows you to process each sound individually and that is really what a polished & professional sound is all about. The PCM sounds can be cool and sound wonderfully degraded at low pitch settings but honestly you can ignore them and stick to the analog section without losing ANY value to the machine. Korg has delivered almost certainly the best budget friendly analog (and PCM) drum machine with the Volca Beats.
