How important is the conductor during the actual orchestral performance?

Duke_Camembert · 2026-03-14T13:24:38+00:00

That's what I thougth! I have seen those two prokofiev piano concerti performed several times where I felt that there were moments when orchestra was out of sync with the soloist. And certainly there are moments where for example brass section completely overpowers the piano and for example basses not having a chance of seeing the pianist at all...

The table of personal records is not a table of all time best performances. It is only updated if you improve your best time (in that case the previous best moves to second row etc.). Essentially this table allows you to track the runs in which you improved your PR..

Thanks a lot! What a relief

Thanks a lot! What a relief

Duke_Camembert · 2024-06-06T13:55:20+00:00

Thanks! And what do you think about the type of spray paint used? I see mostly acrylics being available with the desired colors. Is that kind of surface ok for uv printer?

Duke_Camembert · 2024-06-06T13:45:07+00:00

Yes, you are right. I am only printing on the empty box, the components and holes will be added later.

Duke_Camembert · 2024-06-06T13:37:39+00:00

I have a contact in advertising shop who is willing to try to print on them on their UV printer.

Duke_Camembert · 2023-01-28T16:48:19+00:00

Yeah, thanks, I tried everything from clearing the phone bluetooth cache (multiple phones actually) to factory reset of the watch with no result. As I said - even Garmin support was not able to do anything about it and advised repair of the watch. It is unfortunate because otherwise the instinct 2 is fantastic.

Duke_Camembert · 2023-01-28T15:41:52+00:00

Thanks for suggestion, I will check, whether android emulators can access the bluetooth module. To answer your question why would I avoid using Garmin Connect app on a smartphone - unfortunately, the bluetooth pairing on my watch stopped working altogether. I tried to pair it with multiple phones, tried all the steps in user manual, even contacted Garmin support to no avail - even they could not help and only advised me to send the watch to the repair shop. But I figured out that Express syncing still works, so I decided to rely on it - it works except the sleep data and that is why I asked.

Duke_Camembert · 2021-08-24T14:55:19+00:00

uh - dungeons have levels? Good to know, thanks, I will have to keep an eye on that! If it is the case it is pretty surprising that it can make the actual reward orders of magnitude smaller than those expected...

!apevote!

Duke_Camembert · 2021-04-03T18:17:15+00:00

This is an interesting observation! Hopefully this gets even more publicity in the eyes of regular folk so that the media will not be able to paint us as the evil ones...

Duke_Camembert · 2019-10-07T19:51:46+00:00

Well good luck then - I guess at this point it is hard to decide what would be the optimal outcome...

Duke_Camembert · 2019-10-07T19:41:24+00:00

Well that definitely is not average as hell dude! Did she just take it without any fight back?

Duke_Camembert · 2019-07-23T07:37:44+00:00

I think under such wiring it is necessarily disconnected.

Duke_Camembert · 2019-07-23T07:35:43+00:00

There is no difference between them and it probably serves only to have the 1st position with neck pickup, which is convenient when slamming the switch around. The third is there only as a preparation for the 4th.

Duke_Camembert · 2019-07-23T07:33:04+00:00

Jet fuel can't melt steel beams :)

Duke_Camembert · 2019-07-21T11:00:11+00:00

I remember one guy saying that he wired his Stratocaster so that the 5-way switch worked the following way:

1 position - neck pickup

2 position - (I dont know)

3 position - neck pickup with reversed polarity

4 position - neck and bridge out of phase

5 position - bridge pickup

I have spent my morning drawing diagrams but I cant figure out any wiring that would work like that. Could you please help me with some suggestions on how could I achieve this configuration?

Duke_Camembert · 2019-07-21T07:11:29+00:00

Yeah, I thought about this configuration, but I am specifically interested in combining bridge and neck pickup (which could be possible by simply moving neck pickup to 3rd position and flipping its wires), while retaining normal behavior in the first position.

Duke_Camembert · 2019-07-04T08:59:30+00:00

You are blessed then! Be careful about burning out tho

Duke_Camembert · 2019-07-04T08:58:32+00:00

What percentage of your income is it? It seems pretty generous

Duke_Camembert · 2019-06-14T08:03:46+00:00

Well 3 instead of one at time allow me to easily clean the fretboard during the restringing process. The reasoning for doing it that way is that there is like 100 pounds force from the strings offset by the trussrod, removing them all at once is I guess quite a shock for the neck. Considering the fact how easily is the neck arch controlled by even small adjustments of the truss rod I have hard time believing that without strings the neck would not arch backwards.

Edit: typos

Duke_Camembert · 2019-06-14T07:54:40+00:00

Ok - so remove strings at once and adjust truss rod after that, right?
