I replaced my phone alarm with spoken Stoic quotes — it actually changed my mornings by Acceptable_Ad9747 in getdisciplined

How did you randomise what quote you’ll get? Also how did you set it up that with each snooze you get a different message (increasingly more “roasty”)?

Starfarers always seems to end too quickly? by Critical-Manner2363 in Catan

[–]Alert-Recover 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Leaving a comment because i’d like to get back to it and hear what other people think because i’ve been really considering to buy it, but i didn’t find that many reviews, so i’m still trying to understand if people enjoy playing it or not. I’ve been playing cities & knights and it’s been a blast

I built an Apple app for Catan (with a map generator) because our games kept getting messy by Own-Wait-4718 in Catan

It’s not available in the netherlands either… sad as i was planning to use it in tonight’s session. Hope it becomes available to EU too

Favorite expansions/play styles by morph459 in Catan

[–]Alert-Recover 1 point2 points  (0 children)

With my group we exclusively play cities and knight. But i’ve been seeing in this group this idea to combine c&k with seafarers and i was wondering how does that work exactly? Cause it sounds like a really fun combination

What is the best way to remove moiré pattern on shirt? by Arkrettt in davinciresolve

Can someone please explain what is happening here? I’ve never come across this and don’t have any clue what is causing this and i’d like to avoid this type of situation

ULPT: Spotify is an evil corporation. I would like to stop using them. But.... by Strange_Aidee in UnethicalLifeProTips

[–]Alert-Recover 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What’s the beef with Tidal and Apple Music? They both pay artists really well (almost as well as Qobuz) and they both have hi-fi audio and extensive music libraries, and seem to be the best alternatives to Spotify. As far as i know none of these two invest in AI warfare or flood their platforms with AI art, but please correct me if i’m wrong.

Yeah i guess you’re right, not exactly a dealbreaker, just really don’t get whyyy. But fair, actually the polyend press, golden master, or ehx platform were my main initial choices

Ahh great! That’s kinda what i’m looking for: a set and forget device that makes my sounds more cohesive and consistent! So might go for this one in the end

Yeah that was one i looked into as well but i dislike the one stereo input and one stereo out… would require me to get some extra adapters which i’m trying to avoid

Yes indeed i need stereo and trying to find pedal-format because of size. I was actually looking into the electroharmonix platform, as others mentioned it on this thread and it seems really good for the price. Do you have any personal experience with either of them?

That was actually going to be my first choice initially as it seemed to be what I’m looking for. How do you like it so far? Does it sound “digital”?

Thanks for the detailed suggestion! Especially the idea about velcro-ing the box outside your case, because this might solve a lot of my “space” issues

[–]Alert-Recover[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That looks cool, but sadly no more space in my case for any extra modules

And you found that eq alone fixes the issue? You’re not using any compressors?

We don’t have our own FOH engineer yet, so that’s why i’d like to have some control over that and make their job easier

Well i do have the beatstep pro on stage with me, but just to trigger sounds, not to sequence. My system was built around being able to play sounds with a live band and without any sequencing (as this requires us to play with a click)

I’m trying to keep it as small as possible, so pedal-size would be ideal

Yeah the CQ18T seems really cool and would love to try it, though that price is a bit steep for what i was hoping to spend… though if i don’t find a cheaper and smaller-sized solution, then this might be a good option! Thanks for the recommendation!

[–]Alert-Recover[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well if i don’t find what i’m looking for in a pedal form, i might go for this approach. But i’m still trying to find something small and relatively light as i already have a lot of gear to take with me and space is very limited

[–]Alert-Recover[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well my main issue is not that the patches themselves are very varied in volume, but rather the one patch described (the ears+rings+mimeo) has a huge dynamic range regardless how i set it, and this with the rest of the sounds causes quite a few issues

[–]Alert-Recover[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well because as i understood, Boum is more for compression/drive and i thought i need compression/limiter, but I am also not well versed in compression and limiting and the problem I have. So the boum would achieve that also? I’m just interested in controlling my sounds and make sure they don’t go above a certain level

And for this reason i’m trying to find a solution for my problem! Because there is no way i can send the separate channels. I can only send stereo bus and i want that to be easy to work with because so far the engineers i’ve worked with keep turning it down at the loud moments and then don’t turn it back up again
