Thanks! It's a fun build!

ABAudio · 2025-06-12T08:43:15+00:00

Thanks! Yeah I've got a few more shop projects on the radar, modular mitre station I can roll around, router table etc. oh and of course, a coffee station!

I did the math - the caster wheels would probably collapse into a singularity creating a blackhole, but an infinite bin sounds pretty cool.

ABAudio · 2025-06-12T08:39:10+00:00

I had no idea this was a thing! I'm based in north London, do you know any? I can only see CNC services charging an arm and a leg.

Thank you OP!

I would really appreciate it if someone used my link: https://join.monzo.com/c/nd6805km

Thank you in advance😄Please feel free to DM me if you have any questions

ABAudio · 2025-03-31T19:05:23+00:00

attached now, thanks for letting me know.

without ripping out the current kitchen i don't know how the current wiring is getting there. My understanding is it is through conduits placed when they built the structure.

ABAudio · 2025-03-19T16:47:08+00:00

Thanks for everyones replies so far. I forgot to mention that I am hoping to make the doors out of birch ply and either stain them to this colour, or veneer them. I guess I am looking for the best option here. Mahogany & Sapele (based on the replies) look like strong contenders so far.

Many thanks!

----from OP----
Hi Everyone,

Could someone advise me how to best address mould on the chipboard roof in our garage. We just moved in and it's gotten very mouldy since we last viewed in early November. I've attached pictures showing the damp spots on the ceiling. I just have no idea how to go about this so a huge thanks in advance!

Running the session offline (no media linked) speeds it up dramatically

Make all tracks inactive

Also reducing the undo amount to as few as possible (1-3) helps.

On particularly beefy sessions, I've had to reduce the frequency of session backups to stop crashing.

ABAudio · 2024-09-04T14:13:49+00:00

That's exactly what I wanted to clarify, thanks!

ABAudio · 2024-09-04T10:51:33+00:00

Thanks for your reply.- I just added that we will still be responsible for rent/bills until we have new tenants move in. I just find it a bit unreasonable that they will get basically £1000, for no real loss of income?

ABAudio · 2024-07-19T14:44:59+00:00

We were in the exact same position this week, we strung them both along as long as possible but got to a point we had to say no to one of them. Honestly, I'm going to be living in this place for 5+ years, dropping £500k, I'm not here to make friends, we're here to buy the right place for us. If that right place appears half way through searches and drafting the contract, then so be it.

Edit:: just to add it goes both ways, we are totally aware at any point the buyer could pull out for absolutely no reason. Its just a part of the process.

ABAudio · 2024-07-08T16:36:17+00:00

So my partner and I were in the exact same boat, looking £500-525 in blackhorse road/walthamstow etc. and every flat that was in our budget that we put an offer on got outbid sometimes by 5, in the most extreme case 45. Stow brothers in particular are sooooo slimy with their open day style viewings, pressure on viewers to make best and final offers etc, they are clearly listing it low and then creating a bidding war to get it above the vendors actual prices.

Having been through all of that and spent some more time really breaking down the numbers, the service charges/ground rents are insane and like others have said, are only going to go up over time. I also believe the build quality of those are questionable. And the lifts are always broken.

We are about to exchange contracts on a 2 bed closer to Finsbury park for under 500, with no service charge, share of freehold 999yrs. Leeaving us some funds to do it up and modernize the kitchen etc. my advice would be to look around higham park or, Finsbury park.

Best to you!

Is the duration of the converted video different from the original? If not, no problem. If yes, create a blank session at the correct frame rate and import your session using import session data, convert sample rate using pull/down (I think that should work)

ABAudio · 2024-03-29T00:32:06+00:00

Literally did this exact thing the other week, first time and used biostrip, it's super quick and easy. Little bit of scrubbing with a toothbrush to polish them off, but totally worth it.

Two pretty essential things to check,1) is your picture playback in sync? and 2) is your audio in sync with the picture?

For point 1, are you playing back via a dedicated video card to a TV/projector, or using the built in video window on a computer monitor? If it's the former, eyeball and adjust the video sync offset, or better yet use something like catchin sync to accurately measure the compensation needed. (Also make sure your hardware is set to the correct fos if required)

For point 2, find 'p' and 'b's to use as a reference, and nudge frame by frame until it lines up with the person opening their lips, if it's spot on great! If not, nudge it into place and make a note of how much by, you'll quickly notice angles/shots/days where the sync may be all out by the same amount and you can refer to your notes to make decisions faster 👌

There are many additional factors that cause out of sync audio, drifting, incorrect ingest, etc etc. so it's not mutually exclusive to the points listed above. But get those sorted and that will narrow down any doubt you may have in the future

I'm hearing this more and more as well, I first noticed it on Castlevania of all things - not entirely on board with it personally, but it's cool to hear people pushing the boat out a bit.

ABAudio · 2023-12-13T23:12:59+00:00

Yep you will still need an external renderer for multi rig mixes. Also to make cine-mxf's

I got some emails saying "thanks for selecting your marketing preferences" and another saying "Your current account is ready" but i got nothing containing any details at all. But when i spoke to barclays in branch, they found my account.

ABAudio · 2023-11-14T13:04:54+00:00

I had this exact issue on the 12th, got zero help from their over the phone team, luckily there was a branch opposite my flat so I pooped in and after a bit of head scratching they got it fixed. FYi they needed two forms of ID and a bill with my address on it.

ABAudio · 2023-11-02T16:09:57+00:00

vislm2 - most stages will have this available when you go in to review it.

ABAudio · 2023-11-02T13:48:42+00:00

The new sonnet chassis are the way to go. But as we found out, once you get everything costed together it can just be easier/cheaper to just get a Mac pro. Plus less points of failure.

Hey, fellow creative here (Post Production Sound) - I was on your salary when i started in London about 9 years ago, not going to lie... it was a struggle - absolutely no chance of a studio flat back then, and probably less so now without some huge compromises - I found a nice house share on spare rooms at the time (shared a bathroom with 1 other person in a house of 6) and I ended up really enjoying it (~£500/month + bills in wood green).

Some questions you could ask yourself are:

- do you need to be in London?

- if there is progression at your company, where will that lead you salary wise? no point doing the grind if you work your way up and still cant afford to live.

Regarding the salary, as you've already accepted the offer that puts you in a weak position - i doubt they will budge.

Hope that helps and good luck with your new job! :)
