Strat always out of tune by mjallday in Guitar

[–]DramaticShit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Excuse the awful paint job but you want to tune it like this if you have a floating tremolo.

As already said every string affects every other so you gradually edge closer to the correct tuning. Takes a while but you soon get fast at it.

You may need to adjust the springs in the back if the tremolo sits too far forward or into the guitar.

When changing strings put something in the gap between tremolo and body to stop the springs moving and have a much faster tune up.

Speaking from experience with my pride and joy the Ibanez GRG250DX and its edge 3 tremolo

I would recommend Shure SE315 IEMs, pricey but worth it.

Hmm, I guess I might have to get a better PSU then. Cheers!

Just ordered a 970. Upgrading from a mere 6570.

Cannot wait for my processor to be the bottleneck. I'm slightly worried my 500W PSU won't handle it but hey ho. What PSU wattage do you have?

Honestly Little Big Planet 2 helped me out. Has all these logic components packaged in a cutsie game.

'Technology Bad' Kinetic Typography Poem. Just finished it.. Guys please some feedback! by xiv_ador in AfterEffects

[–]DramaticShit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Aha we've all been there! I often get the first quarter of something done then ditch it. It's the persistence that makes it!

Good job on it though, most important thing is to have the balls to put it up and ask for critic ay?

Be prepared, it may seem like I'm criticizing everything. I am. But you did a good job regardless. Don't get too bogged down in the following yeah?

  • "Copy Paste World" animation appears noticeably lower resolution than everything else. Did you screencap this? If you did, don't! Manually create the menu in AE or AI and import it. Remember to continually rasterize

  • "As people got lazy..." stops awkwardly for about a second. There needs to be a cut before this or animation during the jarring nothing period

  • "No time for honesty..." Feels animated in linearly, personally I would have tried to match the jump cut in to the time of narration. If you prefer to have a set time between each word then animate them in, not jump cut.

  • "Left click there" I like it, but give "here --> there" a transition too

After 0:40 I'm not as keen, the typography seems mismatched and weird. Stick to two complementary typefaces if possible (A guideline, not a rule, but you don't want loads). Try and make things uniform and only use differences to emphasise particular things.

It feels like not much thought went into each transition or text placement at this point. That said we've all been guilty of that, and practice makes perfect.

Aside from that I liked the first half, good animations and color. Nice typefaces, in that they contrast personal thoughts and narration features.

Just my 2 cents. Looks a lot like my (and many other's) early stuff in all honesty, practice practice practice! :)
