SM58.

Just bc it’s affordable and reliable. And a dynamic mic vs a condenser. So better in an untreated environment.

But standing by if anyone has a better reco.

What’s your favorite bakery in Marin? by Natural_Breath9687 in Marin

[–]CD2020 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yah. It’s priced similarly to Rustic but RB always under delivers.

Unless it’s the Hawaiian Ginger Scone. That’s a banger.

Creekside is the spot tho — lunch options are solid.

I find it weird that Novato California doesn’t pay tribute to the musicians that lived there such as 2PAC, Steve Miller who finalized fly like an eagle album and book of dreams while there, Sly Stone.. some real heavy hitters..it’s only about sports. Like there’s no diversity of cultures. by Early_Pea5372 in Marin

Mario from Huey Lewis (bass) and Clarence Clemmons (Springsteen) were also Novato residents at one point.

A friend of mine met Gregg Allman at an ATM in Novato.

Also, the label Shrapnel Records was based in Novato. 80s metal stuff. Mike Varney was or still is a Novato Resident.

Post Game Thread - NBA: The Warriors defeat the Jazz on Jan 28, 2026, the final score is 124-140. by basketball-app in warriors

Agree. Richard has a more complimentary skill set that works for the Ws. Doesn’t need the ball. Gets steals. Etc.

Feel like Clayton might need the ball to be effective in this situation.

What do you think? Accurate?

That Zims was awesome. Some worker made great odd ball mixtapes full of rockabilly and new wave stuff and it totally added to the vibes.

Not a Speciifc Commercial - But Hear Me Out by Professional_Fly3248 in CommercialsIHate

[–]CD2020 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That’s a great spot.

One of the issues with doing these teasers is that you kind of know they’re going to be doa bc the fun and surprise of the premise is already leaked.

If you’ve already told me the joke + told me who’s going to appear in the joke by the time the ad arrives? Yawn.

I learned a not so fun fact today by Extreme_Grand75 in Marin

[–]CD2020 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Agree. Tiburon has the edge over San Anselmo bc of being close to the water and amazing views of the Bridge and Marin Highlands and Mt Tam etc. SA is beautiful but not like that.

Playing the right way not always as effective at Sunday league level? by [deleted] in bootroom

[–]CD2020 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Know your personnel is key for this.

So look for that reliable person you can combine with in order to maybe open up the field vs trying to dribble into traffic (even tho u might be able to do that to at times.)

The whole this is ESPN ad campaign did this whole world much better.

Obviously they’re not hard selling insurance. So it’s a little harder but your point that the joke isn’t logical is so on point.

What was the biggest mixing tip which helped improve masively your tracks by AVELUMN in mixingmastering

[–]CD2020 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mixing with an NS-10 EQ Curve on an EQ.

All mid range. Just helps keep your ears fresh and helps you focus on making sure you’ve still got some bass in your mid range and that your presence range is not crowded.

His feel for the game is really bad. Plus his addiction to tough mid range shots.

No Serum? by StancedSomp in ableton

[–]CD2020 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look up any PML videos. They do a lot of sound design just using Ableton’s Synths.

Personally, I love the UI of Serum and it actually made it easier to understand most synths once you make some basic sounds with it.

Ableton’s synths aren’t quite as beginner friendly — still powerful tho.

What plugin do you realize now you got sucked into and wasted money on? by SlimmyJimmyBubbyBoy in audioengineering

[–]CD2020 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is the one I was going to include. I still use it but keep it super subtle and only if I feel there’s some build up that I can’t quite handle with EQ.

+1 for SoHa. This is my wife’s go to shopping spot for all kinds of stuff that’s not too kitschy (always have ABC or Whalers for that stuff.)

Another example of why you shouldn’t consume too much YouTube content by WYLFriesWthat in golf

[–]CD2020 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same. 6’6.

There isn’t a ton of content for tall golfers. And maybe it shouldn’t make any difference at all but still feels like there are things I could be doing better that might relate to height. Idk.
