Chris and Jody take a good look at using Control Surfaces. We give you the rundown on some of the history of control surfaces. We also discuss some of the different types of control surfaces there are and when we have used various ones. We talk about various reasons for and against them. We even give our picks for control surfaces that we like. Plus there’s our Friday Finds of the week. It’s also not unlikely that there will be some nonsense discussed.

Chris and Jody take on the mighty world of the Delay. Giving a broad overview the history, types, and uses. Think of it as a gentle swim in the shallow end of the pool of getting to know how delay came about, where’s it at, and whetting your appetite for future deep dives into specific delay units in the future. It’s also not unlikely that there will be some nonsense discussed. ** The irony of it not posting at its original time is not lost on us. Imagine, an episode about delay that got delayed.
If you hang until the end you’ll find out the Goldstar word for the week, and also be privy to the Friday Finds of the week.
Shoutout: John Lennon, Pink Floyd, Oil Can Delay
