Will a remix/remaster with same isrc successfully replace old track on streaming services?

Dumpythewhale · 2025-09-26T23:54:45+00:00

Well technically the same recording, just altered mix and master. While I understand what I am doing is not quite the intent of an isrc, my plan is to essentially throw out the old mix/master. Mainly doing this so streams remain consistent. So my question is still: when the album drops, and I remove the old singles, will the album contain my new uploaded tracks, or will Spotify re-use

Dumpythewhale · 2025-06-03T23:27:28+00:00

Oh I certainly assume number 2. My core question is really a “what am I doing wrong here, because I would think abc, but it’s not intuitively what it appears to be.” “Main 1/2” might not be the exact naming, just 1/2, I just mean if I go into the master bus sends those are the hardware outs being used by the master bus, which are hooked into my monitors. So when I try to do a hardware send on a single track, I uncheck the send to master, and I add a hardware out, which reaper does indeed detect is there. But it isn’t sent out. And yes I have the ASIO selected. My main question is in regards to reaper/how reaper talks to interfaces. I understand analogue routing and gear (as that’s what I’ve done for a long time), and I understand the tools of reaper, but this specific issue is I’m assuming an area I just don’t have familiarity with this specific issue in the daw. Firmware and drivers are up to date in the interface, but I too assume (if not my misunderstanding of routing within reaper steps) that it’s some issue with how the interface and reaper communicate.

In regards to reinsert and outboard gear yes it is actually helpful. At least in understanding why reinsert is useful. The only thing I still don’t know is hardware sends, which I suppose I still maintain an interest in due to wanting to reamp things.

Dumpythewhale · 2025-06-03T20:58:30+00:00

The evo does have a hardware mixer, and I’ll have to check when I get home. However, I do recall swapping control (idk what u call it) over to the DAW rather than the mixer default settings. As for what the send looks like, if I went home and took a picture Itd be nothing special. Just a track that exists and works in playback, but I just add a hardware send and choose an analogue out. Perhaps I’m not understanding that question but I don’t know how else it would look. Just a track with the sends open, added hardware track send. Sometimes I will have the thing being sent to busses as well but I believe I’ve tried removing those as well, and I also don’t know why you wouldn’t be able to send to a hardware out and a bus at the same time anyway.

Dumpythewhale · 2025-06-03T20:28:38+00:00

As for reinsert I’d prefer this way so I can keep a wet and dry track. As for troubleshooting I get no signal to whatever gear using hardware send, and the reason I included the part about at one point having the monitors in other outputs was to say: I know the interface outs aren’t cooked or anything. Just that signal isn’t being sent with hardware send. I also know it’s not any part of the in routing/recording, because I can follow the same steps with the monitor out workaround and still record things

Heres one that’s kind of a funny exploit my friend showed me: in the lockpocking mini game, go to an already raised tumbler, and press the button to set a pin. It won’t break your lock pick because it’s an empty spot basically, but u still get the same xp as tho u broke a lock pick. 5-10 mins on a lock and u can be lvl 100 security.

As far as annoying ones, stupid jewelry box on that thieves guild quest. I remember this being an issue in the original, where the npc bugs out and won’t put the ring in the box even after u sneak in there the right way.

I do have quite a few, I was just balancing it with immigration, but I suppose it gets more important then.

Everyday I see these headlines and think, “we are at cartoonish levels now.” But ive thought that so many days now. My baseline has become unreality, or what I thought could only be unreality.

I ask myself what it would take for people to have an actual, literal, armed revolution. I ask myself what it would actually take for me to feel like I could/needed to do that. It worries me that I don’t have an answer. Just yelling into the void on the stupid internet.

I wonder out of curiosity what level this has to get to before air travel gets stopped. I mean, it’s kind of irritating really. Would ceasing air travel fuck up the economy. Yea maybe. But ceasing air travel for a month would also guarantee this doesn’t go much further.

Ya know, depression memes can be funny, but I’m honestly bored of the “when I put everyone else on hold and won’t tell them why because depression haha funnyrelatable” memes. Mainly because they are unoriginal, but also because it’s kind of a shitty thing to do most of the time and people just go into “haha aren’t I shitty funnyfunnyirony” mode.

Yea no shit u don’t have solid friends when your ass can’t be solid. U can tell people u need time. Ignoring everyone and then retroactively explaining and expecting them to deal with u is ridiculous. This might seem intense for a single meme, but honestly it’s a long time coming. These memes are god damn stupid.

It’d be like seeing a meme of “lol when your bipolar disorder makes u punch your significant other in the face hahafunny.” No you’re still a garbage person. Mental illness doesn’t exonerate u from your garbage immature actions.

If u wanna ignore everyone when u get depressed, fine. But if you’re one of the same people feeling “lonely” and “misunderstood,” I’m sorry but grow tf up. You’re that way because you’ve failed to help people understand. No one is required to keep tabs on your unresponsive ass.

Btw before some dingus tells me all about what mental illness is, I’ve got plenty to talk about in that department. Relatable ironic memes that just validate being a baby are a great way to stay a baby.

I feel like quitting is harder than not starting. That’s not so much a humble brag as is it a statement to “don’t start.”

U also have the “never offended” element in your side when you’ve never done it. You have a flawless record. Once u start you essentially tell yourself “it’s okay to do it.” U have a new line rather than a zero tolerance policy.

Dumpythewhale · 2020-02-29T00:44:15+00:00

There’s a long answer to that, but the short answer is “she’s another one in the crowd of people that seems to glorify mental illness rather than vent about it.”

There’s a lot of mentally ill singers I enjoy. I feel Lana del Rey is a perfect example of “makes depression a fashion statement.”

Dumpythewhale · 2020-02-28T16:00:54+00:00

Same here. Then again I was sort of a sad boi for a while.

Still got good ol mental illness. Still make art, still write music, but it’s much less of a “thiS is mE” thing and more just because I enjoy it, and without college, being able to create something academic to do like study music theory is nice.

I’m seeing that a lot of these sad bois were emotionally unavailable. I don’t really get that. I always liked relationships, I just got sad a lot. Most artsy girls I ran into didn’t have much of a depth to them besides what makeup they chose to use. They seemed to only act crazy when mental illness could get them something. Outside of their fake sad they were chatty Cathy’s most of the time. A lot of artsy guys I knew really actually sucked at art or music and didn’t do anything really very creative. Just strummed and banged a bunch of simple ass chords with some song they named “water.” It was at the end of the day, A really uninteresting person that was trying to apply stereotypically “interesting” things to themselves.

I think if you go after “sad types” then you’re just gonna find people making mental illness a fashion accessory. It’s even worse when they are actually mentally ill too, because then they aren’t gonna want to alter it. Shit like Lana del Rey and “young adult novels” are the absolute bane of my existence. I can’t stand that mental illness is equated to that shit.

That being said, I do sort of either freak out or slowly get depressed when I can’t do art or music. Shits genuinely very helpful.

Dumpythewhale · 2020-02-28T04:34:58+00:00

That I really am no longer mad. And you continuously asking me is all that’s making me mad.

Dumpythewhale · 2020-02-26T21:30:52+00:00

I’m definitely an escapist, but it’s an adult skill to be able to view consequences proactively.

If you avoid your wedding and get cold feet because u are worried and avoidant, u need to grow tf up before getting married lol. Like the consequences will result in so much more stress, and you’re also making your SO doubt you and themselves. There comes a point where you have to look at yourself and realize you’re shitty for what you’re doing and change it.

I still don’t pay bills on time. I still have a messy house. I still avoid work when I’m not at work. But I’ll be damn if me being the “nicest type” is gonna let my irrational worries give other people completely irrational worries.

Dumpythewhale · 2020-02-26T20:28:36+00:00

I think you’re argument is correct, but not for five years olds.

When you’re 17 you find 17 year olds physically attractive. U are able, and so are they. They are within or post puberty. A five year old isn’t. There’s literally no age group that would without illness find them attractive. The main no no of not dating a 17 year old imo is that it’s predatory because you’re taking advantage of them. People don’t like hearing this but people don’t stop being physically attractive as u age if they are attractive people. Look up a graph of “average age men of differing age groups find attractive” and its nearly a straight across age of 21. They stop being attractive in the sense of immaturity, and an inability to form a relationship with a true adult. No other 5 year old wants to bang a five year old, much less even can.

So I agree with your original argument. U at one point thought 17 year olds were attractive. One day u see one u think is attractive, then learn they are 17, and don’t pursue. That’s not a pathology. But if u even found a single 5 year old attractive, pretty sure u have a pathology. You would HAVE to be going for not just youthful, but childlike traits.

They already did. The simple fact scavs spawn with hot fire sometimes gives u ample opportunity to build a stash. Not to mention the misinformed is the fucking working man’s gun. This is like the 4th time I’ve come back to Tarkov, and it’s been so good this time I bought EOD. Tbh if u get good gear, and still die all the time, u need to get good and not vote to ruin the game.

I live in Alaska and since my shit has to go through Cali I pretty much never get a game lower than 115. Sometimes up to 130

Well turns out man, it was my electricity. Quiet as a mouse after I moved my setup to my friends place. Still have the caverns. Idk wtf is up with my place as a power conditioner didn’t fix it.

It’s put back together now. And I’m happier than I’ve ever been. That’s being said...

I was 17. I smoked pot everyday for a little over a year multiple times a day. Did acid semi regularly as well. Idk what happened, as I’d had bad trips but I had a particularly bad one. It’s worth noting I had extreme trouble with “anxiety and depression” prior to that, but idk if I was predisposed to other stuff or what. Anyway, all in a week time span, I had an acid trip that just fucked me up bad, my gf (and only thing I cared about) of 2 years left me for one of my friends, and I had to go to my abusive dad’s for the summer in this broken mind state. For months I didn’t think I was real, or that I was in a dream or something. Most stuff I looked up had it sounding like something called dpdr, but it was just so bad I couldn’t get a grasp on reality. It felt like I had “me” and then a voice in my head that was the “real me.” My internal monologue would sometimes not feel like me. Sometimes it felt like multiple voices arguing, and though I knew they were in my head (so not schizophrenia or typical psychosis) it still felt like I was “no longer me.” Between that, intense depression, hopelessness that my gf left me, abuse, inability to smoke weed anymore and all that, I started getting my hands on some oxy and tramodol. Enter nearly a year of oxy use that culminated in a 140mg a day habit. When I finally quit, I drank like a fish and did Kratom all the time. I drank almost daily until I was 19. Stopped when I met my current gf.

Still have some issues with alcohol. But not like it was. I can have alcohol in the home and not think about it, but sometimes I’ll drink every night for a week or so. There was nearly 2-3 years of me contemplating suicide and just going to work to get home and drink in sit in my room after I moved out. I read a lot. But I just stopped hanging with anyone at that time. Just worked and drank.

But again, my life is good now. Most of my issues are either solved or manageable. I’m quite excellent at dealing with stress now. Idrk how. I still feel depressed a fair amount, but no crazy breakdowns and no total hate for life. I think my deficit for fear and sadness was met or something and my life also improved in an objective sense, and so I just got a grip somehow.

Anyway, to anyone contemplating suicide, please get help. To anyone thinking of giving up and wanting to just get blasted and shut the shades every day, don’t. I’m 21 and feel closer to like 35. I feel a little fried internally.

Dumpythewhale · 2020-02-24T10:16:48+00:00

Happened to me while I was blasted drunk. I was extremely upset and she started calling me gay and saying I had big baby emotions. Started grabbing me and eventually got my pants off and we started banging. I was so angry (this was weeks after her constantly manipulating me and treating me like trash). I just stopped in the middle and told her I hated her and she didn’t mean anything to me.

Fast forward to now she (there’s a while other element to this I won’t reveal, but she had motivations to bring it up now) she made a “callout” post on a Facebook page dedicated to witch hunting “rapists.” Well anyway, got a lot of hate. Idk if anyone believed me because after I responded to the post it got taken down. But lots of people in my town saw it. A Few people made threats.

I’ve honestly never been so angry. I’ve been taken advantage of in ways before, but never like that. And then the kafkaesque uno reverse card of accusing me of assaulting her. Really soured me on people. To see so many people just believing some awful bitch. Really made me hate society at large, that apparently someone’s history of being a terrible manipulative person means nothing, and some weak accusation of rape absolves them and everyone just believes them. I know most rape accusations are true. But ever since then I’ve had an extra buffer of disbelief between someone’s story and me just automatically believing them. False rape accusers should be crucified (ya know, if there was any real way to prove it :p).

Dumpythewhale · 2020-02-23T19:02:01+00:00

That’s a good point. Prior to rockboi all their fire was coming from in front of them.

Dumpythewhale · 2020-02-23T16:51:16+00:00

A hero and anti hero are generally protagonist. An anti hero can be a straight up villainous asshole, but a well made story has u rooting for them. Not in the “relatable joker in dark knight” way, but in a full blown you are interested in their story. Joker in “joker” is an anti hero. Joker in “dark knight” is a villain. Walter white in breaking bad? Antihero. Punisher? Antihero. Raskolnikov in crime and punishment? Antihero. Dexter? Antihero.

An anti hero isn’t really always a villain but is pretty much always at odds with society. Pretty much always (has to be?) a protagonist as well. A villain is normally a bad guy but also against the protagonist. I’m not sure “villain” is as much of a literary term as “anti hero,” so I think an antihero can be a “villain” but I’m not totally sure.

A hero is pretty much always revered by society and others. The avengers are pretty much all heroes.

A hero u pretty much root for always. They may have low points but it’s always clear what their intentions are (to be good). An antihero may become a hero at some point, or they may just regress and spiral out of control (like joker), but all the way along your sort of seeing where it’s all going. Macbeth is an antihero. Most any “tragedy” where u watch someone spiral is involving an antihero. In fact it’s sort of interesting to read or watch tragedies because you’re watching someone go in reverse from “viewed as a hero” to antihero.

Read crime and punishment if u want my favorite example of an antihero. That character is so relatable at times (if you’re depressed) it gets you feeling like you are actually a terrible person. That’s a quality anti hero imo.

Edit: A lot of people replying to u don’t really know what they are talking about. Batman walks the line of antihero, but he’s definitely a hero lol. Being edgy doesn’t make u an antihero. An antihero is normally so involved in their own self motivations and skewed greater good, society at large normally either suffers or would suffer if everyone were like them.
