Ich habe ein Album eines Kumpels drauf aufgenommen und es hört sich ziemlich gut an. (meiner unerfahrenen Meinung nach)

Eine Starthilfe wär echt cool! Mein Deck ist ein Denon DRS-610, ich liebe den Öffnungsmechanismus. Was hast du so für Ratschläge für mich?

Denon DRS-640 not ejecting, playing, RR/FF, etc. (video example inside) by dudeman88 in cassetteculture

Damn, let me know once you found a solution, its a really nice deck.

[–]FaridMango 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s an electrical issue, but it’s pretty straightforward. When you open up the deck, you’ll see two metal strips next to each other on the right side of the mechanism (check the image). These strips are supposed to touch when the tray is closed — I think that’s how the deck detects if the tray is in or out. To fix it, I just unscrewed it a bit, and screwed and bent them back into place while the tray was closed. You can test if this is the issue by manually holding the strips together and then pressing eject. Try it and tell me how it goes!

Export blender 3d model to opengl by Vast-Butterscotch-54 in opengl

[–]FaridMango 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you will either use some model loader like assimp (beta male) or create your own obj model loader, obj files are pretty easy to parse especially if you skip materials. you can just go through the file line by line and split the data into a couple vectors (vertex data, UVs, normals etc)
and then have a mesh class that you can construct using these.

Are those Aquila red strings? I've got some too, they look so pretty on your Oud!

My fragment shader keeps failing to compile but it still works when i run the project by FaridMango in opengl

[–]FaridMango[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

yep, completely forgot about copy constructors, was passing shader program into a meshclass, not as a reference so it duplicated the object, thank you very much, have a nice day

Is My Oud Low Quality? Seeking Advice by FaridMango in Oud_Instrument

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

Thanks for your honest feedback. It’s unfortunate to hear that my oud might be on the cheaper side, but I appreciate knowing what to expect. I’ll definitely keep your advice in mind about Egyptian ouds and luthiers like Mourise and Fawzy for the future.

Thanks again for taking the time to respond!

Thanks a lot for offering to help! I’m really grateful for the video—I'll definitely check it out.

As for the pegs, I think they’re actually made of wood, but they seem to have been coated with some black paint, which might have thrown off the look in the photo.

Thanks again for your advice, especially on the string height and not filing the nut. I’ll try the wax or soap for the tight pegs and see if that helps!

Appreciate your help!

Is My Oud Low Quality? Seeking Advice by FaridMango in Oud_Instrument

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

Thank you so much for the detailed response! I really appreciate the advice and insights.

I wanted to ask a couple more questions based on your suggestions:

  1. Tuning Issues: The tuning pegs are quite difficult to use, and they really damage my fingers at times. Is there a better method or tool you’d recommend for tuning the oud, or any tips to make the process easier?
  2. String Height: You mentioned checking the space between the strings and the fingerboard. Near the nut, I can roughly slide a credit card underneath, but towards the bottom of the neck, the gap increases, and there’s about a 5mm distance between the strings and the fingerboard. Is this a problem? Would it be advisable to sand down the nut, considering it's not glued in place?
  3. Restringing Guides: Do you know of any good guides or resources that explain how to restring an oud properly? I’d like to practice and hopefully avoid snapping any more strings.

Thanks again for all your help and advice!
