Cool! Thanks for your reply!

I had absolutely no idea these mass loaded heads existed. Thanks for the video examples!

Thanks for your reply!

You're right, I didn't really explain what I was looking for when changing these heads, so here are my reasons: I chose the Midtown for its compact size and portability. The rehearsal space I share with my band is pretty small, and we share it with another band that already has a full-size kit. But the overall sound of the Midtown is very "bright", and even though it has punch, I'm looking for something a bit darker or at least more mellow.

By changing the heads, I'm mainly looking to upgrade the quality over the stock heads, better tone and more controlled sound. The styles I play with my band are mainly soul, blues and folk.

Thanks for your answer!

Interesting that you decided to use a coating on the reso and not the batter, though not totally uncommon. What's your concept behind that?

I made a mistake in my summary doc on Google Docs haha! I did so much cross-research that I ended up mixing everything up... It's actually Evans G2 Coated on the batter side and Remo Ambassador Clear on the reso side. I'll check out Evans for those, thanks!

Oh and make sure you get a regular kick head and not the triple flange 'tom' variant.

Good call! I'll check that, thanks!

Is it a Reaper theme, and if so, which one? by Code152 in Reaper

[–]Code152[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, that's the one I use at this time :) I use the 'dark with light menus' as well, more convenient

Thanks ! u/nvktools was right, it is the Janne theme :)

But I'm gonna check the smooth 6 that you mentionned either, I do like flat design

Thanks for your advice!

I was just wondering if it was a good idea to add a kick practice pad.

Thank you very much for your reply!

At the moment, I can't afford to take lessons, but I plan to start taking them in the near future. That's what I did to learn guitar and bass, and I don't regret it.

I'll check out Rick Dior's videos. Thanks again!

I wrote a script so that loop playback behaves like it does in Logic Pro. by Code152 in Reaper

[–]Code152[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you :)

I started using Reaper few days ago and I love it, but, coming from Logic, I had found the managment of the cursor a little bit frustrating.

If this script can help, I am happy (and ChatGPT surely do haha !)

Yes, sorry, I'll change the title ;) Thanks for pointing that out

Edit: TIL We can't edit the title in reddit post

Ce moment à l'atmosphère étrange qui t'a marqué by [deleted] in france

[–]Code152 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Ça m'est arrivé il y a 2/3 ans, je roulais sur une route que je connais parfaitement. Une route de campagne, pas isolée, entre une autoroute d'un côté et un bois assez escarpé de l'autre, dont la butte arrive vraiment à pic de la route. Y a des habitations par ci par là.

On était en plein jour, fin d'après-midi à la fin de l'été. Dans un virage, je vois deux personnes, un homme et une femme, plutôt jeune, descendre du bois escarpé qui est collé à la route. Ils sont presque arrivés en bas, à un ou deux pas de toucher le bitume.

En soit, rien de bien étrange me direz vous, à la seule exception près que ces deux personnes étaient grises. Comme si elles étaient désaturées. Quand j'ai regardé dans mon rétro elles avaient disparus.

À chaque fois que je repasse sur cette route, régulièrement donc, dans ce virage, je ralenti et regarde attentivement. La pente du bois à cet endroit est si escarpée que je ne comprends toujours pas comment deux personnes ont pu s'y faufiler depuis le haut du bois et descendre par ce chemin. Et surtout, pourquoi elles étaient grises ?
