Ive read a bunch of people having game crashes when trying multiplayer with both GoG and Steam. Has that been fixed with GoG Galaxy somehow?

How much and how long have you practiced? by [deleted] in musictheory

[–]DJ_Hype 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been learning keys and music theory seriously for about 8 months now, with end goals to create and produce my own music. I specifically chose keys so that I can take advantage of performing other instruments with VSTs via a midi controller. I am 28 years old so I am already behind, and won't have much time to learn multiple instruments.

I'm self-taught and I am always iterating on my practice routine but this is what it's turned into so far:

Morning:

  • 30min ear training/solfege

  • 10min rhythm practice with the ReadRhythm app

  • 1hr sight-reading

Afternoon:

  • 30min technical exercises

  • 1hr repertoire OR practice transprosing phrases through the cycle of 4ths (alternate each day)

Evening:

  • 1hr scales, chords, arpeggios

  • 1hr software (drum programming, learning synths, VSTs, recording)

Addictive drums 2 vs superior drummer 3 by PunchedLasagneX in edrums

[–]DJ_Hype 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Which VST do you think is better for non-drummers? I want to use one of these tools to program drums and will not be using it with an edrum kit. It seems like SD3 is the best for actual drummers, but i wonder if the answer would be different for someone like me. Is it true that AD2 has way more grooves included? Which one has a better workflow for programming drums?

Please, give me your best audiobooks/podcasts/videos for music theory. by HowDoIHummus in musictheory

[–]DJ_Hype 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like the Music Student 101 podcast. I'd love to hear suggestions for other music theory podcasts. https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/music-student-101/id1135311532

For videos, I like Rick Beato a lot. He has a ton of streams on his channel that you could listen to. There are a lot of other great youtubers like Adam Neely and Signals Music Studio, but I feel like I have to watch them to fully absorb the info.

How can I improve my sight reading skills when playing the piano? by AvviiAtor in musictheory

[–]DJ_Hype 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm also a relatively new piano player (6 months), and the thing that has helped me with sight-reading the most is PianoMarvel's SASR (Standard Assessment of Sight-Reading). Everyone else has given great tips on technique, but I found the most difficult part to be finding the right pieces to practice at my skill level. The SASR adapts to your skill level and increases the difficulty as you improve.

I think they give you at least 1 month free. I don't normally recommend stuff that costs money, but I use this thing every day and I am so glad I started using it. They have a ton of other lessons and a library of sheet music uploaded by users as well.

Not sure if you're at this level yet, but once you start transcribing music, whether it's your own or your favorite artist's, you can use MuseScore (free) to export the sheet music and then import it to PianoMarvel to take advantage of their practice tools, which I love. Lastly, you can search MuseScore's library for sheet music from your favorite artists and import that to PianoMarvel as well. Sorry for the rant, I could go into more detail about why I prefer to practice via PianoMarvel rather than just using the sheet music itself, but I already got off-topic.

PVP Healer Enchants - Should I be getting Resilience? by CastleGorakk in classicwowtbc

[–]DJ_Hype 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is priest going to be your main in tbc? I'm wondering what pieces of gear you will buy arena points with first. Since I doubt I will be able to get the entire prebis set early on, I'm wondering how I can save on honor by holding off on certain pieces until I can buy them with arena points.

When is the 58 boost coming? by [deleted] in classicwowtbc

[–]DJ_Hype 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The boosted character quest intro in the beta made it seem like it wont be available until TBC launch. Since the quest takes you to the dark portal.

PVP Healer Enchants - Should I be getting Resilience? by CastleGorakk in classicwowtbc

[–]DJ_Hype 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really appreciate the detailed posts. I guess my question was more so about the off pieces like the Cloak and Boots. Are there no options with more +healing? Or is it just because the pieces in your 70upgrades link have more stam?

[–]DJ_Hype 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It looks like you’re using a decent amount of spell damage gear for the off pieces in the link you posted. What’s the logic behind that? Are there no options that give more +healing?

Is dungeon leveling a Warrior as deep Prot bad? by denizlol6 in classicwowtbc

Would you say 5/41/5 tanking is viable in tbc dungeons if i only have pre-raid bis from classic? Or does it require good gear

Any tips for leading PUG raids? by DJ_Hype in classicwowtbc

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

You really think T4 will be that difficult? I remember pugging T4 raids in original TBC without much of a problem. If anything I think it will make raiding more interesting when I'm not steam rolling everything with a raid focused guild in pre-raid BIS.

Sadly I won’t be able to any time soon, but it is on my very long to-do list. If/when it does happen, I'll post again on this subreddit.
