    I’m really nerding out on synthesisers right now, and 99 percent sure she doesn’t know what after-touch means, or why I’m excited that I picked up a late 90s synth with a good keybed and full midi.

    My lady friend doesn’t own anything that looks like a keyboard, so I’ll apologize for the over explanation, then proceed to explain why I’m so stoked.

    Essentially, I got, ‘I’m glad that makes you happy!’ Which I know means shit up and move on.

    If she wants to know more about modular synthesis or rompers, I’m sure she would ask. I wouldn’t force an explanation on anybody.

      Hahaha, my wife puts up with that same shit. I’m building drones on Veroboard. She’ll ask how the electric octopus is coming along and then instant glazed eyes when I tell her how I accidentally let the smoke out of a TL072 but at least I used sockets for all my ICs. She did buy me a JP-8000 a couple of years ago though. She’s a good one.

        I love to hear people nerd out on their passions. Personally I view it like a gift.
