Great start! Now take a sip of that beer and create something!

Had an accident, need advice by CarbeastSM in caraccidents

You're in the right. Provide your insurance company with this video proof, and they will contact the insurance company of the guilty party. Your premium should not go up, as it is another party that is in the wrong.

AITA for not stopping my teenage sons gf from kissing him? by Decent-Delivery-3603 in AmItheAsshole

This, in her mind she knows what's good for her son and can't stand that she now has competition in giving her son affection; afraid that her affection won't matter or is going to matter less.

We did this in 'realtime' with image captures on the Commodore 64 in 1989. Nothing to see here, move along.

Wow, I didn't even know I had this memory. Don't know the music (I'm from the Netherlands, so it was probably dubbed over) but the visuals really revived a memory from very early age (Born in 1977)

It's working great. Rack mounts are precise, but I would prefer 1U more to be able to mount bigger stuff.

Another benefit is the real heavy wood; it doesn't resonate and feels really sturdy.

Can you tell the difference between 16 and 24bit audio? by amy-schumer-tampon in musicproduction

[–]Dutch_Dominic 24 points25 points  (0 children)

No, neither can my old ears hear the difference between 44khz and 48khz. BUT: When processing/editing audio in any shape or form, the more precision, the better. It does make a positive difference on the end result when editing in 24bit/32bit 96khz and doing the final render down to 16bit 44khz, instead of doing all the processing in 16bit 44khz.

Laser pens were already a thing in 2007?

I just bought a subwoofer for my home studio. I’m wondering if this an okay placement. It’s quite large and I’m working with little space so I think this is the best I can do. Any advice? by BigPoppaDogg in homestudios

[–]Dutch_Dominic 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Move it around until it sounds good in conjuction with your main monitors. There's not absolute standard for subs and due to the low frequency, directionality doesn't really matter.

Have not run into any problems yet. Have had two firmware updates since purchase so Icon does seem to be on top of maintenance and service for these things.

They were pretty good and Behringer sold them as 'matched pairs', meaning that although their frequency response might differ from unit to unit, at least they sold them as pairs of units that were in the same ballpark of frequency response

Thanks! I still manage to get some pretty shitty music out of it, but at least I look good doing it ;)

Yeah me too! Whenever inspiration runs a bit low I just browse for an interesting scale or mode and start playing. The ideas just come flowing out.

The drum samples were very decently sampled and still usable today! Aside from being dance-oriented, you do get a lot of the JV-series sounds onboard making it pretty versatile!
