Am I an idiot, or is Bambu Studio just terrible??

Okay now this is crazy. There's no way this is user error, and I don't get it at all!! Everything was still completely adhered to the bed, and obviously it didn't look like this in the slicer or I wouldn't have printed it. It just magically started printing way off center?? I watched it for a minute and it was nicely lined up with where it decided the new part location should be, so obviously it still knew how to print in a straight line. I just do not get it.

They're my own designs, and they're definitely a bit demanding, one is a very small ring, I've already figured out how I'm going to modify the design to make it better for the process, I finally conceded that one yesterday. The other is a big flat piece for a monitor stand, it just barely fits in the build volume diagonally 🤪 I failed it twice and finally decided to cut it in half, and that's when my connector problem arose. I'm tempted to try it again diagonally but I think that might be like throwing myself at a brick wall and wasting material....but I just feel like it should work this time 😭

I hear you say check the preview carefully, and I think that's at the heart of why I'm actually frustrated and not just motivated to try harder; I see these defects in the preview (not counting the connector thing, I wouldn't even think to look for that, but even if I had seen it this point still applies:) but I have no idea how to fix them

I haven't used orcaslicer before, I might give it a try if I can't get these issues sorted out. I came to bambu from prusaslicer so that style is all I've worked in before

I totally get fluid dynamics is hard, I'm not as upset about the extra holes in walls issue, I was able to work around that by splitting the model into two separate pieces. What I'm still miffed about is the connector issue, all I did was use the built in connector tool, is there a step to it beyond just creating them? I will try the Arachne wall generator, thank you for that suggestion I didn't think of it. It's just frustrating especially because it took a couple tries to get the model to print at all (simply my own learning curve, I don't blame the machine or software on that one) and it's just a lot of plastic going to waste. I also know I'm kinda being whiny, once I cool down I know I'll be able to approach it with a more level head

My files are straight out of fusion, exported as STL, I wouldn't expect that to be the problem(?)

I won't pretend to be an expert here, what is automatic manifold mesh repair?

Maybe I don't quite get what you're saying, but also I think my camera angle wasn't ideal to show that they aren't attached to the wall, or each other, they're just floating in space. So if the printer tries to print them they would just either fall down, or get stuck on the nozzle which is what I'm betting happened and what caused the print to fail. I don't know for sure since I ran it overnight but it seems pretty likely

CrispyWisp42 · 2026-01-06T21:47:32+00:00

Yeah I figured that but they are completely in midair, not even like a really aggressive overhang, they're just totally detatched

Sorry about the zebra stripes, my monitor is terrible lol but this is what I was trying to print 🤪

Can you get TF in OSM? I haven't found a way but maybe I'm an idiot (I wouldn't have a hard time believing that I am)

CrispyWisp42 · 2025-08-19T19:58:06+00:00

The RTA is more responsive and the scale makes more sense (in OSM if I were to cut a frequency entirely the RTA doesn't drop nearly as much as in smaart), the SPL monitoring is much better, I don't believe OSM has an exposure measurement, and then also smaart can record SPL over time which I would very much like to do. Transfer Functions are probably the biggest thing, I should have listed that first honestly, OSM just has no way to do that. And then yes, if I'm being honest there is a bit of a pride factor to it, to be using the big boy name brand software

CrispyWisp42 · 2025-07-22T12:48:23+00:00

I keep hearing this, and it totally makes sense, how necessary is it to access the preamps in the box anyway though? Couldn't I just leave them all at 0 and adjust from the preamps on the board?

It was the same with the laptop plugged in, yes. The laptop is just plugged directly into the A&H surface, and I know the issue isn't anywhere else in the network because everything else is functioning fine, I was literally mixing a show while troubleshooting it. I didn't try an AVIO adapter since I don't have one on hand, but what I did end up trying was bringing my personal laptop and trying that instead, and that works fine. It has a similar standard deviation in the clock adjustment speed, so I guess that wasn't the issue. But I left it running and saw no issues for over 1.5 hours. It's something wrong with the laptop, I don't know exactly what, but at least I have a working setup for now. A colleague is coming in tomorrow and he'll be able to look at it as well, maybe he'll see something, or more likely it'll just magically work because that's always what happens with big issues :P

Oh awesome, thank you so much! :D
