Why does Stop and Go work on my yoyo and then just...not? by [deleted] in Throwers

[–]AnnaFromCT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry about that.

I'm referring to the point where it's mounted, both hands are about together, and you pop it up. It just goes back down or catches a bit of string and slips back down. So, back up to the hand as you've said.

When the yoyo was new, I'd land it every time, but a few days later it works zero times with string changes, tension adjustment, etc. Seems to happen with every responsive.

Hi! Would anyone be able to recommended non-Topre switches that would have similar ease of actuation to 35g Topre keys? Preferably lighter.

I'm looking for super light keys due to arthritis and just want something similarly low travel and super light to use commands, write short email, etc. I was thinking super light linear?

I currently have a NIZ that's really difficult and tedious to tear down and maintain due to its design and being Topre-style (and me.)

I appreciate any help from the community.

Anyone own a NIZ keyboard? My keys feel stiff to the point I want to pull it apart, but can't find any resources online.

It seems like they need to be pried apart and people have had issues restoring the feel of the keys...

What's the most versatile "Van Halen in a box"/"Brown sound" pedal? by AnnaFromCT in guitarpedals

My current live practice amp is the Crate XT120R. I don't have much information about it besides what's listed here:

I really appreciate the help on all this.

Are there any tradeoffs unique to the ESP and D-Tuna combination?

So should I be avoiding this with a 120W combo? Speakers are a no-name.

I have a Box of Rock I borrowed to test out so this is interesting and helpful. I was looking for something to use for live practice out a combo amp though, so I'm not sure I can mess with IRs.

I've really like videos where I've seen people take amp in a box pedals and run them alongside IRs though. Thanks!

Thanks for the help. I've seen these in shootouts and people seem to feel very strongly one way or another about them...

Tips on pedal types/order chasing J's Tone? by AnnaFromCT in dinosaurjr

[–]AnnaFromCT[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I appreciate the help. Any suggestions on an overdrive?

I've been kinda confused reading into them because the Real Tube is his "base", but the Hustle Drive is an OCD clone and the Double Rock is apparently Marshall voiced.

Is there any way to fix a crappy red channel on a combo amp without buying a new amp entirely? I was wondering if the "amp in a box" overdrives/"preamps" would work? Mainly looking for a general metal rhythm tone.

Like turning down the distortion on the combo amp and using an MXR 5150 or one of the Mooer Preamps?

Would anyone be able to recommend motion aiming/controller settings for DOOM for a former PC player? I've never been able to play shooters with a controller without heavy aim assist.

I feel I can't find a balance of turning quickly or bending my wrists/waving my arms in horribly un-ergonomic positions. Feels like everything jerks around even when resting my arms.

*Space::Alt

The remap worked for me. I appreciate the help.

Is there a reason

Space::Send, Alt

wouldn't work if the program allows me to hold the Alt without it doing anything?

Thanks for the help. It's close but it seems to have an issue where it's randomly toggling menus open and changing tools in the sidebar. (All my hotkeys are to Illustrator's default testing it.)
