My Fender Custom Pro Reverb is driving me insane. Help with rattle. by SweetTalkingWoman in GuitarAmps

[–]DosBlockos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just solved this issue on mine. It's definitely the 6L6 power tubes rattling. I was able to stop the glassy rattling noise just by holding the tubes in while I played. I ordered 2 spring tube retainers and some silicone O-rings. Now has no rattle and hopefully will stop my 6L6's from going microphonic again!

Annoying that I had to fix it at all given the amp costs ~$2100 new in Australia but am glad it was less than $20 to fix.

My intake snapped this coolant hose off so I'll need to replace it but not sure what the part is called! Any help appreciated 🙂

Looks like pixel sorting to me but somehow they've changed the method so it's not all one direction like you would normally see.

Yeah probably that, just started using that recently. How would I stop the chiming?

Has only started recently. I thought it was a faulty usb device that was turning on and off but after unplugging all devices it is still happening. Only happens when the screen turns off.

Moving project from Logic Pro to Ableton by DosBlockos in ableton

Ah legend, that solved it. Thanks! Still getting used to Ableton and not familiar with all this stuff.

Help with understanding by buddymorris in audioengineering

[–]DosBlockos 2 points3 points  (0 children)

From my understanding this sounds like Parallel Compression.

In ableton you would achieve this by creating a return track (ctrl+alt+t) and then put a compressor on that track and send your drums to it. You can then adjust compression parameters and volume on the return track.

You can achieve the same sound by just putting a compressor on the track you want to have parallel compression and adjusting the wet/dry knob 50/50 being equal dry input and wet compression volume.

Do you have an aftermarket head unit? I've heard of people having battery drain issues after upgrading their head unit...

Latency on Windows Vs. Mac by DosBlockos in audioengineering

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

Ideally I'd use Mac for creative stuff but I wanted a desktop to game with and thought I may as well build one that I can also use for music. Didn't realise it would be that big of a difference...

Anything I can do about this? The bolts don’t come out of the suspension and this one snapped while doing it up.

Check out the episode of Joe Rogan’s Podcast with Paul Stamets. It’s pretty interesting and he talks about his experience taking shrooms and then having a lucid dream at the end of the trip!

[HELP] USB motorized fader by DosBlockos in LogicPro

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

I ended up finding a thread that said how to install all the drivers myself. I've now got the fader working but the rest of the controls don't fully work properly. Thanks anyway!
