I think he mentioned on 4chan he did something with recording (fairly famous) bands for a living or something

Was it UG who, early on, talked about putting his amp head on the stage on a plate of ball bearings for the best sound?

I always had mine sitting on a beer keg next to my cab. It actually sounds the best.

1. He is not famous / googling his real name doesn't yield anything. He probably just got stressed out because people gave him a hard time for having what seemed like an infinite amount of money/gear and pulled out a plausible lie. No biggie, but he really is not a person you know. Just a duder with money and a cool hobby. Believe me, I'm tragic enough to have done the research.
2. His name does not rhyme with smegol.
3. He was super helpful with gear questions and I wish he was still around.
4. I still put on his RM-1N demo sometimes because it is rad.

I listen to his RH demos all the time. His ghost delay demo is sick

His demo is why I built a Gristleizer, built a Soundwave breakdown.. many more.

This should probably be pinned to the first post.

Man, I feel bad now. I usually try to be accepting to people on here, so him being driven away for sharing gear....
I dunno. Maybe I was wrong in thinking he was annoying. Fuck.

He wasn't driven away. He left on his own after settling into being a (more or less) accepted member of the community.

People are either misremembering his time here or else everyone sees him in a very different light. :idk:
