kinda bizarre all the people that do not understand that mk is short for mark, or version...constantly hearing people say 'm k 3' vs 'mark 3' like mk is an acronym....and it is not
NI missed out on great tie in
They sure did! A friend of mine was doing the best impression of Mr. Mackey long long ago, and I didn't even know the reference at the time. It was weird hearing her do his voice, but once I got it, it was hilarious. I wish I could do impressions and be annoying. Oh well, 1 out of 2 ain't bad. If I could impersonate the late great Meat Loaf, then it would be 2 out of 3...like the song!
Native Instruments has referred to the Maschine and Kontrol series as “Em” “Kay” “one..two…three” in all promotional videos ever. They’ve never once reference either series as “Mark,” so while I understand there is a typical convention of MK or M as shorthand for “Mark,” NI doesn’t refer to the products that way.
Ooh, I've got another one!
People writing "of" rather than "have" i.e "I should of paid attention at school ".
🤣
funny, I bought the mk1 when it came out and seemed to have missed the usage ... luckily all other synth manufacturers are not going down that route .... then I'd really have a bee in my bonnet
Might be a USA thing ... the NI folks when doing promo tour in US for the Mk2 always referred to it as the "mark 2" which is expected. You can see this in Sweetwater demo video with NI rep, etc. Why not just say v3 if "MK" means nothing. Anyway ... now to go shoo some kids off my lawn and yell at neighbor dog playing next door in his own yard! MmmmmmKAY! :)
This was the plan of the evildoers who invented those newfangled things called "contractions".
"Should have"
"Should've"
"Should of"
End of society as we know it.
I have a friend who keeps saying "one of" instead of "one off". The correct way to say it would be "The MK3 launch was a one off failure." Of course, you have to have people willing to trust you when you say you won't let it happen again.
I admit though that "one off" is abit silly (sic).
"Ooh you've got a Maschine. I've got one off those". No, you've got one of those.
Ergo why should we say "The Maschine is a one off"? 🤣
Worst is people who say "heigth" (to rhyme with "width"), vs "height."
Right. It was Maschine Studio that was the "one off". 😂
And that makes me sad because I love that form-factor. 🤔
I've heard that too, and it's like fingernails on a chalkboard to my ears.
So is "axe" instead of "ask".
"So let me axe you…"
"Whoa, no need to get violent, dude!"
"…a question."
"Ooooh, okay."
This bugs me, too, but somehow I feel kinda racist complaining about it
I can assure you, that one is not restricted only to one race or culture, and I noticed that even before the year 2000. By now, it has pretty much spread around the world like the measles or chicken pox.
