  1. It seems to currently only have some percussion sounds but I don't know MIDI keyboards so I have learning to do beyond plugging it in and it showing up in Ardour and it actually making sound.

  2. My good deal needed some work. The usb type-b socket was broke off. I by chance saw this odd piece of metal in the box, thought it was nothing related, then I had another thought and saw only hole where there should have been a usb connector.

    Find a donor, disassemble both, de-solder and clean up the recipient, solder the 'new' one in, and clean up a little, and reassemble. All done in about an hour.

  3. The water is going down and it's not leaking now since I sealed the print but this is the most bees I've seen drinking water.

    This is a bit ridiculous since the hives are 75 feet away from *illions of gallons of water but there's always one or two bees at the dog water, or the geese water, or on dripping faucets. It can't hurt and maybe I'll put a bit of salt and minerals in it for them.

  4. The strongest hive early this afternoon today. The drones are cleaning themselves for any potential encounters as the workers bring food in. I made some little U-shaped water troughs. I've been filling up small jar lids sometimes with water and they seem to drink it so I made something so the water would last longer.

    It holds about 60ml or 4 Tbsp.

  5. The bees late this afternoon on a mostly overcast day with a few drops of rain. Lots of big drones in the two most active hives and a steady amount of pollen coming in.

  6. I picked some tomatillo today too, most of them had fallen off which I noticed after turning the water off.

  7. I saw a bee on the hyssop, the rudbeckia is almost open, the purple coneflower stems are longer and the heads spikier, also a too many weird spots ladybug on the hyssop.

  8. Pollinator bed has a little bit of hyssop that's blooming and the rudbeckiais close and the purple coneflower stems are getting longer with a flower like thing on the end. Monarda fistulosa Bergamot bee balm is 5 feet tall and still growing.

    The edible border is probably all growing. Viola, Pansies, Borage, Calendula, and Nasturtium which is pictured.
