Re: should i sell my gaming laptop?

Hey cibergotika!

Re: Introduce yourself!

Nice to meet you, @Linkard ! I did draw it myself, although I have to give credit to one of my 4th grade students who drew the original version back when I was teaching in Korea. It was so cute and simple, and I always really liked it, so I figured it’d make the perfect avatar :lol:

The Blåhaj, hell yeah!

On topic—I never had a Kick, but I used to have a Volca Keys, and I think I recall there being a headphone jack on it. You should be able to run an 1/8” (think standard headphone plug) cable into an audio recorder from the headphone jack! If you don’t have a recorder with 1/8 ...

I'm Andy, but I go by "kamp" round these parts! I just joined recently at the reminder of a friend here (I say reminder because he told me ...
