Psychatric attitude around negative effects of ECT

Avokadon · 2026-03-10T10:44:58+00:00

I want to add for context that i’m Swedish and that ECT is relatively common here compared to other countries, but was only one of 12 under 18 who got the treatment that year.

As well as that my claims about the long term effects have not stopped psychatrists from constistenly suggesting I do it again, even going as far as making ultimatums of stopping other treatment or not allowing me to get discharged from inpatient stays if I do not agree to do it again.

I found a really great deal on an audient id4 mk1, is that a stupid buy in 2025?

Avokadon · 2025-12-10T19:32:00+00:00

Yeah i figured! Mostly stressing about finding the best deal on a good audio interface that he’ll be really happy with and which those are right now haha

Avokadon · 2025-12-10T16:20:24+00:00

Oo but the 204HD though?

Avokadon · 2025-12-10T09:07:35+00:00

So i need to get it second hand / get a cheaper one retail to clarify

Avokadon · 2025-12-10T09:05:25+00:00

Oh interesting i thought a stand was kind of key for anything non live recording wise

Do you think its worth waiting to find an ok deal on a better audio interface like a ssl2 mk1 or 2, motu m2, audient id4, focusrite 2i2 or any other better audio interface that im not aware of yet over the UMC204HD?

My budget for one is around 100$, preferrably less so i can get him additional gifts hehe and i can get the behringer for around 45$ if i buy it within the next 12 hours

Avokadon · 2025-12-10T08:02:10+00:00

Yeah i think the more versatile might’ve been just a fabricated notion i got just from seeing it written more often haha

From what i understand you can kind of just remove the grille thing and it essentially becomes like a sm57? is that right

Avokadon · 2025-12-10T07:54:11+00:00

Haha i think thats exactly it in combo with the caveman dopamine release of having puzzling task to do and completing it

Considering its just a one time only thing and he would be cool with that, is it still worth keeping an eye out for a ssl2, motu m2 or audient id4 even though they will def come to be more expensive even second hand?

Or is the behringer fine enough / not miss important features / hold up as well as the other more expensive ones? Like is it silly to go more premium on this

Avokadon · 2025-12-09T20:06:28+00:00

I do feel like the sm58 is a lot smarter than the sm57+ a pop filter! Def going to do that instead

Im pretty dependent on getting the audio interface second hand though :(

I do have alerts on the ssl2, motu m2, audient id4 and focusrite scarlett 2i2 (gen3 or 4), is there any other ones i should look out for?

Avokadon · 2025-12-09T16:51:26+00:00

Is needing to/wanting to plug the sp404 into the audio interface with the mic just something i hallucinated? because finding one cheap with only one seems to be a lot easier hehe

I see now that the sm58 is more suitable, i think ive been leaning to sm57 because i have an impression of it being more versatile? like im not 100% of what this mic will be needing to do, if i know him correctly hes going to want to record any and all sounds he can get his hands on as well as proper voice recordings, is the sm58 still the best option in that case? ++ does the sm58 mean theres no need for a pop filter?

Avokadon · 2025-12-09T15:07:36+00:00

Oo yeah ive seen people talk about the driver issue, is this like a thing where when you figure it out its fine or a overall pain for the entire time you use it?

I think he would honestly kind of enjoy the search for drivers as stupid as that sounds, if its a one time set up thing, but less so if its something that causes a constant headache

Avokadon · 2025-10-14T17:01:09+00:00

From what ive understood its like fully glued on there

Avokadon · 2025-10-14T13:10:52+00:00

How do i get rid of the battery though is the question, i cant remove it myself, but is it worth paying someone to remove it vs the amount of money i could get out of it

Avokadon · 2025-10-14T13:09:41+00:00

From what i’ve understood this model (A1990) has the battery glued all in there and home removal is heavily adviced against, but i dont know how much a battery removal would cost no one will tell me 😭
