Yes!
Keep my IPad backgrounds comming @sezare56!
thatās built in obscolescence. Elektron placed spider babies in all OTās so we all will buy the mk2 hardware update.
this thread is perfect
I think also while theyāre in there you canāt sample(feed your OT) anything after midnight, to avoid early mutationā¦
(@PeteRabb , Donāt tell anyone Iām being serious, but I think you just need to open up you OT and carefully take the spiders out anyway you can. I think I would use some sort of anti-static cloth and maybe a q-tip, but I wouldnāt go as far as alcohol, and compressed air can sometimes leave a residue. Donāt use a vaccum because it creates a lot of static. Iād be super careful about all of this, and only do it when you are ready and feel comfortable in your decision, in other words, donāt blame me if you break it! If it were me Iād also make sure to safely relocate themā¦ )
Took me ages to catch and load all those tiny spiders into mine before I sold it. Having somebody clean them out again just wouldnāt be right.
Serious answer: can of deodorant and a lighter should do the trick.
Should be OK as long as its not an antiperspirant
I am currently experiencing the same bug issue. My just picked up my octatrack up after not using for a few months and I found about 15 - 20 little bugs runnning around in inside of the screen!!
Submerge it completely for 20 minutes in hot soapy water, does the trick for me. Spidersāll float right to the top. I like to add a few drops of essential oils to leave a nice flowery scent when I tweak my cross fader. If itās bad just leave it to soak overnight.
Seriously though how are people ending up with spiders in their screens?
Engineers lunching at their desksā¦
Maybe they are attracted to banging electro tunes??
Itās mental, itās like a little army in there. I think they are breeding as well. Has anybody ever took the top off to clean inside?
I would use an external midi controler (letās just skip the part on how to plug in the midi cable) and then brag about having the most badass rack for the OT on the whole internets.
A spider died in my iMac screen last yearā¦ it is all I can look at!
Wellā¦ once a mouse made its nest in one of my monitors, using the bass-reflex event to sneak in. It apparently stayed there for a while, until it finally broke the electronics and got me aware of it. I play loud techno in the studio, how the hell this little critter stayed there ? Was it deaf ?
Cue the Deadmau5 origin story in 3ā¦ 2ā¦ 1ā¦
Guess you could say there was a mouse in the house
