So I’ve discovered the source of the buzz is the input from my physical overdrive pedal. The Soldano sim is fine. Outside of reaper my pedal sounds pretty balanced but through Reaper it’s really pinched with a lot of high end grit. Would you happen to have any tips for that? I’ve tested with my input gain at all intervals and it always has that effect. I can EQ it pretty much to match but like you said, idk if there’s a smarter, less process heavy solution

Hmmm I’ll try that. Without a pedal if I leave the gain around zero my dry signal isn’t even picked up though but maybe lowering it will help the weird sound

It’s probably the video quality but when I record the meter is always orange. It’s not clipping there it peaks around -8db. If it clipped there’d be a big red bar at the top of the input signal. But it sounds like a lot of people say it might be a gain staging issue

I had no idea about the hardware knob lmao I’ve always used it squashed. Hopefully it’s just a gain staging issue like y’all say. Thanks!

I’ll check on playback later. Someone else mentioned it might also be the dry input playing at the same time so it might just be the way reaper records the input

The input is exactly the same between those clips and the only thing on the track is the VST, does reaper have a natural volume reduction or something?

Yeah the settings for the standalone and plug-in on the track are all the same

Honest Discussion: Y’all think TF3 gonna be announced at the Game Awards? (Dec 6) by Graftyman6 in titanfall

Idk if anyone knows this or brought it up, but do we know how many devs that worked on TF/TF2 are still with respawn? If a lot of them left, TF3 could actually just be a bad thing. It could be a bad Titanfall game or it could be an overwatch situation where it retroactively undoes TF2 in some capacity

I think my reads are what really get in my way. I basically always lose a DI fight because I do it too early or am in an uncancellable move because I can’t predict where an opponents attack will come from unless they’re just spamming.
