Matt Bacon?

[unix-guy]

I was just reading an interview with Adrian Belew from a couple years ago (I'm behind on my guitar mags).

He was talking about his album and the gear he used - primarily the Axe Fx and the GP-10.

He mentioned getting help creating some of classic effects from "Fractal programmer Matt Bacon".

I'm assuming that he really said "Matt Picone" and the magazine just translated poorly.

@Admin M@ - can you confirm?

gotta be...

 

[TG3K]

Maybe picone means bacon in some obscure Italian dialect?

 

[Smeier_ch]

Or now we know more about M@'s breakfast preferences?

The six degrees of M@ Piccone…

Actually he's descended from Sir Francis Bacon but didn't want anyone to know about it.

Maybe it's like people calling Tim Cook "Tim Apple" because they associate him with the company he runs; maybe Matt is called "Matt Bacon" because he's known for programming tasty tones

This thread is making me hungry.

Aside from you writing that just then, no one has ever done that.

Like, ever.

One guy famously did. But pretty much no one else.

This. I suppose "people" is a bit generous when it really was just one guy. Hilariously ironic though that the one guy who said it was @USMC_Trev 's boss lol

@Admin M@ is the last person I'd associate with bacon.

After 2012 I’ll. Never not associate him with being on stage wearing a lab coat and holding up an Erlenmeyer flask half full of that appeared to be antifreeze or Monster energy drink maybe, as an introduction to Cab Lab.

BACON!
