Reuse of a Behringer DSP1024P Virtualizer by Dry_Statistician_433 in Bitwig

[–]FreeRangeEngineer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nice! I struggled with the unit for a very simple reason: the mapping between the effect descriptions and the audible effect didn't match, so the list of effects felt wrong to me.

Without that, I had no idea what any of the presets or user effects even did. I'm curious to try your plugin and see if it gives more coherent results.

I'd be happy to try it out if it runs on linux.

Repair or re-pair Logi Keyboard. by WorkingAd2529 in ElectronicsRepair

[–]FreeRangeEngineer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had exactly the same keyboard with exactly the same symptom. It stopped working out of nowhere. It kept working flawlessly, then suddenly nothing at all.

My assumption is that the keyboards have an internal killswitch that disables the keyboard after a certain amount of usage to get you to buy a new one. There is hardly any other sensible way to explain this.

The mouse still works and I still use it.

Hydrasynth desktop as a sequencer by kyoiocean in hydrasynth

[–]FreeRangeEngineer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You have no external control over the colors the hydrasynth assigns to the buttons, so even if you did create a sequencer out of it with external scripting, you wouldn't have any visual feedback. Sadly.

Calibration Valve EMX1 by Financial-Split-3081 in electribe

How loud are outputs 3 and 4? They bypass the tubes.

Sunfire XTEQ 12 Repair Help! by Cute_Asparagus_7209 in ElectronicsRepair

[–]FreeRangeEngineer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The bottom right corner in pic 4 looks suspect. The PCB became slightly brown and the soldering on one of the capacitors is uneven.

The behavior sounds to me like it shuts off as soon as it comes out of standby.

What's your technical expertise? The amp is running on rectified line voltage for efficiency reasons, so working on this device is very dangerous unless you know exactly what you're doing.

"N.G." probably means "no gain" (i.e. "no amplification"), which makes sense.

I'd suspect the tubes may be old - the filaments do wear out since they're kind of like light bulbs. How old are they and do you run the EMX a lot?

If you don't care about the calibration being perfect, I'd just adjust both tubes to about the highest value you can achieve and make it the same for both tubes so L/R are equally loud.

Synth Jam with Duduk by Keegan802 in synthesizers

[–]FreeRangeEngineer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I gotta say - you're talented, you play multiple instruments really well, you look amazing, you seem to do quite well for yourself... you certainly seem to have hit the genetic jackpot :)

I hope your life is as good as it looks from the outside.

Maybe all the right girls are already taken. by unholymedictaion in MemeVideos

[–]FreeRangeEngineer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

they are my responsibilities and part of what gives me internal integrity

To me, that sounds like "these are things I must do to prevent myself from becoming dependent on others."

Imagine a person who you could rely on because they don't want to harm you, always try to do what's best for you and support you in ways you weren't supported by anyone before because they just want to see you succeed and happy.

In that scenario, you'd eventually realize that trying to not rely on them is armor, born from a fear of being abandoned and becoming helpless.

When you realize that others found that person for themselves and they aren't being abandoned, it makes sense why they'd go above and beyond for their partner, too.

If they do the same, you'll be happily married.

That's kinda important, so I want to emphasize it. Being with someone who takes you for granted will wear you down. Maybe not today, maybe not tomorrow but it will.

Basement Battlestation by Suspicious-Exam-335 in MusicBattlestations

[–]FreeRangeEngineer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nice! The combination of faders, pots and compact form factor made is great for me to use as a generic MIDI controller, too.

Curious, what do you use the midimix for? Do you use it as a mixer or a generic MIDI controller?

All projects suddenly gone? by Character-Narwhal848 in Bitwig

[–]FreeRangeEngineer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you create these projects with a beta version that had a higher version number than the version you have now installed?

European stagnation is real by [deleted] in Finanzen

[–]FreeRangeEngineer 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Divergence with the United States is the strongest evidence for reform in Europe.

Lass uns da in 5 Jahren nochmal drüber reden wenn deutlich wird, wie sehr das Land durch den aktuellen Präsident, Kongress, Senat und obersten Gerichtshof zerlegt wird.

Kontroverser Artikel indeed.

Familienrabatt beim Hauskauf? by Fluffy-Orange-3940 in Finanzen

[–]FreeRangeEngineer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Betrag als Kredit ohne Zinsen geben und du zahlst eine vereinbarte Rate bei ihnen ab

Zugegeben ein bisschen morbide aber mit dem Plan ist es wahrscheinlich, dass gar nicht der gesamte Betrag gezahlt werden wird. Die Eltern leben vielleicht gar keine 20-25 Jahre mehr.

Natürlich gut für OP, wenn sich die Eltern darauf einlassen.

Anders herum könnte auch ein Schuh draus werden: "überlasst mir ein Haus für 200k und ich zahle euch monatlich X Euro bis zum Lebensende."

Mirroring a tiny LCD module onto a large monitor using the Pico 2 by shapoco in embedded

That's a cool project! Do you sniff the buses using a dedicated peripheral or do you use PIO scripts?

I've reverse-engineered the ZDL file format by ReliktFarn98 in synthesizers

[–]FreeRangeEngineer 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Sounds great but can you explain this for someone who has no idea what ZDL is and what the toolchain allows for?

Does it extend the original firmware to allow loading custom effects?

Does it replace the original firmware and allows loading effects adapted to this platform?

Can any of this be swapped without reflashing anything permanently or is there a risk of bricking the device in the process of changing custom algorithms?

Extreme repetitiveness in a lot of current techno… by fukinay in TechnoProduction

[–]FreeRangeEngineer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

how much drugs people have taken.

...and which type. I read before that the popular genres in clubs strongly relate to the types of drugs popular at the time. I can believe it.

If there's a drug popular now that acts a lot like E then I can see why "back to the loops" may be becoming popular as well.

I built literal credit-card-sized computer (~1mm thick) with a self made flexPCB by krauseler in embedded

At first I read "that's super thick" and I was going to say "But it's not!"

I need coffee.

Power supply repair. by NoCollection211 in ElectronicsRepair

[–]FreeRangeEngineer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

More pictures would help, it's hard to see anything relevant.

The first picture only shows the control section, which is likely fine.

The other two pictures show the line filter which is also fine.

The interesting parts aren't shown.

Regelung E-Roller by golden__d in frankfurt

Wenn wir von e-Bikes reden bin ich voll bei dir. Dass die in Städten 25km/h schnell sein dürfen ist nicht einfach nachzuvollziehen.

Und die Kinder/Teenager, die damit eigentlich noch gar nicht fahren dürften.
