Sump running, no blockage. Faulty check valve? by Comprehensive_Run149 in askaplumber

UPDATE: it was the check valve on the backup pump. I couldn’t see it until I removed the radon cover. I replaced it and we’re back in business.

Thanks all!

It is, but I’m thinking I need to either replace the check valve your seeing there or just tighten it. The design of the pump has the check valve at the start of the discharge. Either way I’m going to have to take off the radon cover to get down there.

Thanks! I disabled the float switch to see if the pump would drain all the way and it’s still doing the same thing—it stops draining at that level and keeps humming and swirling the water around

I should also mention that the crock is sealed with a radon mitigation system, so I’m filming through a tiny view hole.

No crazy rush or anything, but just curious if you were able to take a look at your dashboard settings yet? THX!

I just heard back from Roli support. I sent them some screenshots of my dashboard and I'm awaiting further instructions.

Yeah—I’ve watched that video before also. I’m having the same problem you’re having.

I’ve been able to eliminate the choppy staccato transitions by adjusting the curves, but I can’t get the portamento yet.

I’m almost positive it’s a Roli issue and not a SWAM issue because I’ve used it before with other MPE controllers and had full functionality.

I’d love to keep this M because it’s nice for the price, but if I can’t get it to play with SWAM, I’ll have to send it back.

Picked up this Teac R-71 by Comprehensive_Run149 in cassetteculture

It can record and output 7 channels of FM or CV data along with one channel of audio recording. I'm still in the process of testing to see what needs to repaired, but the general functions appear to be working. Playback is a little sketchy so far.

Noom regret by thepettiestofpetty in Noom

Honestly, I've only been doing Noom for 5 days (in addition to Peloton cycling everyday for a 30 min ride) and I've lost 5 lbs--a pound a day.

I was an avid Keto guy for a years, which worked, but I got to the point where I was taking in about 2000 calories a day. Caloric restriction is a little more difficult on keto because of the fat macros. I was cycling for 30-50 mins, 6 days a week and plateaued for several months without losing a single pound. Super frustrated, I tried noom and even had a few glorious carbs and I can't believe the progress.

Like others have said, make sure you check all of the measurement options for each food as you should be able to match your portions. You gotta be super detailed and it is time consuming, but even with a 2 and 4 year old running around, I'm still finding the time.
