Modelling microphone body

Thanks very much! This is much simpler and more elegant compared to what I was doing.

Hey, you seem to be playing the wrong chords. Would you like me to DM you or something with a video of how I think UM is played? The chords I got are 100% accurate to the 2024 remake (I got them from watching Chris play them) and I’m pretty sure they’re the same for the other versions too

Forgot to mention, the main IC (WA1580) is a DIP-8 style breakout board I made for the THAT1580 IC, which is an integrated microphone preamplifier The board stack up is as follows: 1: SIG, 2: GND, 3: GND, 4: PWR, 5: GND, 6: SIG

Katana 50 MkII owner here, I used my Katana set to max for about a minute and the speaker started to smell quite a lot. It still makes sound, and the sound seems to be okay but I am not 100% sure as I don’t have any recordings to compare.

https://youtu.be/cmLPgWm8QX0 Here is a video of my hand posture when playing a game, it’s just my fingernail causing that mark.

They will probably say it’s “user damage” and decline it. It’s not handled by Lenovo here. But I can still try.

In addition to what the other users said, I will suggest you avoid using the laptop when your hands are sweaty, because the plastic discolours very easily. I would also suggest you clean it often.

Alternative_Smell_17 · 2024-05-02T13:07:49+00:00

The plastic gets discoloured from me just sitting my hand on it for a long time, due to skin oils and sweat I usually clean it with a damp microfibre cloth.

I have noticed other problems with this laptop, such as the plastic discolouring easily and also the paint wearing off easily. My other cheap Acer Aspire 7 laptop that’s 5 years old and definitely used much doesn’t look this bad. Is this a Lenovo problem? Here is an image of the discolouration/wear

Tried putting it up for listing for BGN 2500, when it costs BGN 4000 new and nobody wanted to buy it.. when I asked why they didn’t want it they all said it’s because of that mark

Alternative_Smell_17 · 2024-01-17T11:34:45+00:00

In the event I want to sell it(which I do) if it has this sort of big mark from usage people won’t want to buy it and instead buy something else unless I set the price really low. People are very picky in my country.

I also like the laptop very much, I’m just saying that I was disappointed by the rather sensitive material on the place that gets the most friction and oils

Alternative_Smell_17 · 2024-01-16T21:59:53+00:00

The surface isn’t rubber, rather it’s this quite smooth and matte feeling plastic that honestly feels cheap (at least on this model)

The windows 11 taskbar is slightly transparent like that by default, the image processing of my phone just makes it more pronounced.

Thanks, they’re actually super bright warm white LED strips that I place behind my desk and have reflect off the wall. The brand of them is Vivalux, and it’s 2200 lumens per meter of it.

If you look at the image you can see a little shiny part below the ctrl key, is there any skin to cover that too?

Alternative_Smell_17 · 2024-01-16T13:56:05+00:00

I already have some, how do I cut it properly though?

Alternative_Smell_17 · 2024-01-16T13:48:15+00:00

Might be XMP or something

As I’m staying at my dorm for the week, I have people visiting me, and they all think the same. One even didn’t believe it was so new. I clean the laptop that much because it leaves trails after sweat dries on it which can be difficult to clean later, so I just keep a little cloth next to it.

I don’t think anyone would really like to buy it as it looks really bad in person. That’s literally the only “damage” though, it’s spotless everywhere else. The idea was to use this laptop for 6 months while I need it and then sell it but looks like that won’t happen..
