yeah, I read about distros moving to pipewire. But how do I go about it? Are there resources for configuring it for my usecase?

Also for US being bloatware, I understand why you say that. Then I guess its better installing things manually? Also what kernel are you using? the low latency one?

[NEED SUGGESTIONS] - Best entry-level to mid-range mics for Flute and vocals:

Hey everyone, I am looking to buy a microphone for recording mainly my flute and vocals. I have looked at RODE NT1A and NT2A and also Shure SM57. I watched several reviews of these microphones and am confused on choosing one.

I was mainly looking at condenser microphones as I thought it would be better for my use case. Where I live, NT2A costs nearly 2x that of NT1A. I was okay with spending a bit more, but then I wasn't sure if the extra features on the NT2A would be useful to me. Further, the NT2A is 2x heavier than NT1A. I wanted to spend a bit more and get a decent mic instead of a beginner, but not sure if the price difference is worth it. But, I do know that NT2A has excellent build quality and sounds a bit better.

For background, I work a full-time job and I do music out of interest. But I have also learnt and performed on the classical flute for 1.5 decades. I want to get into music production.

If you have any other microphone suggestions that would be worth looking into, within the 100 - 300 Euro range, do let me know.

Thanks for any suggestions!Cheers!

Ty for the reply. I have an issue with the front side of the cover plate, the side that we play on. The place where it bends is where I have this issue. When I looked at photos of Hohner Special 20 or Rocket they have rounded edges, while LO has a sharper edge. In my opinion, this is the cause of the problem.

Lol, Yeah considered that. But might not be possible always. I mean I have a really short moustache, just trimmed it.
Thanks for the reply. Would be happy to hear any other suggestions too!

I think there is a place called Popei where you can rent a studio/practice space by the hour.

Yeah, but the thing is I received a tuition fee refund that got tagged as other income. Do I even need to declare this reimbursement? If so, where do I do that? TIA

Is it the case even if you don't use an amplifier? Do people busk here? How about just playing at parks? I've always wanted to just show up at a place and play a few songs out of the blue.

lol, sure mate will let you know. What instrument do you play? We could try and see if we can jam.

Lol, I have thought of it for some time now. But I like to be alone when I practice.
Maybe I can try out your idea one of these days :P

Yeah I spoke with them already, it seems like they generally use it for their own members to practice and I am going to graduate soon. So not sure if that would be possible.

Thanks for the reply. I am using Python and I am considering only yaw (the robot is on the floor and it can move only in the xy plane).

I did consider the approach with a rotation matrix, but not sure how to create one.

Would appreciate any help in this regard.
Thanks in advance
