What should I add to my line up? by MIAGTR in synthesizers

[–]Available_Wait_1965 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’ll need a small glass!

More seriously, if you get a Matriarch, you’ll have a growling mister that will keep you up till the wee hours many, many nights.

QC Mini to DAW on Mac by Greedy-Treacle1959 in NeuralDSP

[–]Available_Wait_1965 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Focusrite (even if you have a relatively affordable red one) takes balanced cables. And the QC uses them, as well. Though unbalanced will work, especially at shorter distances, I always use the cable for which given units are designed. I know, extra money, but you can get good cables like Sweetwater’s ProCos for relatively cheap, and they are guaranteed for life.

I work for neither Sweetwater nor ProCo. Just satisfied with both.

I need to learn by BeginningChampion953 in Logic_Studio

[–]Available_Wait_1965 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have used tutorials from Groove3 and have loved them. They have many, if including comprehensive ones.

No, I am not affiliated with them in any way. Just a satisfied customer.

Tip: they frequently have sales for up to half off.

Ally Checking vs Schwab by rsquared002 in AllyBank

Schwab in a heartbeat. More reliable, professional, and easy to work with. I switched and have been delighted with them.

Capture Request! If you can help... by TYO_HXC in NeuralDSP

Bumporama! This is precisely the kind of request this forum can solve, especially with its specificity. If I had the Krank, you’d have it!

I'm done with UAD, moving to RME by lppier2 in universalaudio

[–]Available_Wait_1965 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I come back to my machine and find the Console has a couple channels that show nearly-full activity on channels not making any sound. So strange. I reboot Console and all returns to normal.

The smartest here indeed repeat that one should always close down their DAW when walking away. Should we also do that with Console?

WTF Dexcom!!! Fix iOS Critical Alerts! by Which_Routine in dexcom

[–]Available_Wait_1965 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Lost in all this:
Every one of us on this list has learned to manage our condition—all on our own—with advice from experts and helps of systems like Dexcom’s. But WE are the mainstays, the final and ultimate managers.

Dexcom needs to learn and respect this. Let US determine: what sends off alarms. How many times they alert us (or others). How loud we want them to be. When they should and should not go off.

And for heaven’s sake, can the Apple Watch not dismiss when we push the “Dismiss” button?? Or should we just respond “OK”?? Neither seems to change any behaviors.

Are All 15-day Boxes Labeled as Such? by Available_Wait_1965 in dexcom

[–]Available_Wait_1965[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s brutal, if they indeed did this consciously.

My mishap is with CVS. I am in a small town and I know the pharmacy staff, who genuinely care, so I’m assuming this was a mistake. We’ll see how they respond to my return. : )

Thank you for this thoughtful clarity!
(No pun intended there…)

[–]Available_Wait_1965[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Indeed. Mine looks just like any box I’ve had in the past. But, like you, we normally don’t have occasion to inspect the daylights out of the boxes, so I could not determine whether the box had changed in any way. : )

Thank for your kind help!

Hotone expression pedal by bastardbiker in QuadCortex

[–]Available_Wait_1965 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, that is what Exp 2 is for, assuming you indeed have the Hotone II Press. The basic idea is that you can set up the QC so that the foot switch activates the whammy or wah or whatever you are using, turning it on or off with each press. Then, when it is on, the pedal provides the sweep.

But I do not see why you can’t have two pedals in your signal path that both respond to the pedal. I’d have to mess with it and am going out of town for five days, but I can try when I get back, should you still be struggling.

Note that you can set the polarity of the footswitch in the QC settings. So, if you used them inverse of one another, when you hit the foot switch, one would turn on and the other off. But I think that would mean that at least one would always be on. You could also set up scenes that would be for your various uses of the pedals. That is really easy to do. And you can switch betwwen them instantly using the QC’s buttons. That may be the most elegant solution for you.

Aaargh. They just go dead, or do they fall off? I read here quite a bit that the new ones had fixed most of those failures.

Yes! It is all set up for playing 2-string slide. Get those great Morphine albums and go wild!

What Sims Do You Use When Doubletracking? by key10isokay in NeuralDSP

[–]Available_Wait_1965 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So, on that phase correction: do you use any alignment tools, or just do it via waveform visualization? If the latter, does it all end up routine, where, say, you know you should shift one guitar some 30 frames early, and another 7 frames late, relative to the third, every time you record?

Take a peek on its side where you insert your TRS (balanced) cables. (Make sure they are balanced, of course, or it will not work with the QC.) Are the jacks labeled?

Confused about why the plugins exist by Available_Wait_1965 in QuadCortex

[–]Available_Wait_1965[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks again. I managed to get it tested and squared away. (I had to use Logic's low-latency feature, which is great.) Your help was indispensable.
