I have a BA Degree in Sound Technology (sound engineering) and have been a EDM enthusiast since the mid 90s.
You ever seen any old school analogue synthesizers or large format pro audio mixing consoles, or a pro recording studio.

If you like pressing buttons, you would be in heaven.

I also fiddle with arduino, which you can use to create your own digital / analogue devices, adding as many buttons, switches, rotary encoders, faders, led's etc. as you want...

I would like to create a big digital control surface when i have more money and time that allows me to control all the aspects of the software I use.

Interestingly enough, even as a kid, i used to love pressing all the door bells on display at the local Home Improvement store. Bing bong.... for 10 mins or so... never does anyone's head in.... ummm. Perhaps it is karma that i am hypersensitive to sound. For some reason, as a kid, being annoying didn't aggravate my condition...

I love pressing buttons of all types. I like the buttons that are on various toys. I also like to press the keys on a keyboard. When it comes to other peoples buttons, I leave those alone.

I can see the temptation Jetso. Buttons ask to be pressed!

I feel like I’m weird because I don’t have the instinct to just push buttons because they’re there or anything.

It's a lot harder to get annoyed when you're the one being annoying. I know this from experience. :mrgreen:

I try to avoid pressing buttons unless it's absolutely necessary.

When I used to go out there was a multi storey car park with a lift...I'd always push the button so anyone who needed it would have to wait for it that little bit longer!
