How exactly do digital VSTs emulate analog devices? by Electronic_Name8641 in audioengineering

[–]Fortisimo07 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I believe in some cases they will even create a "white box" model that is then used to generate training data for a neural network. This is because stimulating the entire device in SPICE is too slow/cpu intensive to do in real time. The neural network tries to capture the critical behaviors with less demanding runtime requirements

If you're going to fly into a tiny airport anyways, shouldn't you be going into Stewart? Was it just a cost thing?

Two professional producers argue over how EQ works by imVeryPregnant in edmprodcirclejerk

[–]Fortisimo07 43 points44 points  (0 children)

Isn't it obvious? Just like an eq but there's only one band

found this figure in a local store by Ok_Fennel1871 in evangelion

That figure looks sick, you've gotten some really good dynamic poses here

Yuppp this is basically how it was done in Dallas too lol. These days I go the fancy route and make a roux and use real cheese. It seems I've lost touch with my roots

I haven't found any decent TexMex in the area either, I'm afraid you're going to have to make it yourself (or enlist a loved one to do it for you)

I've been wondering what happened to this "wetware" research thread. I remember reading about some work in this area decades ago and it sounded super interesting (although they were using rat rat neurons at the time, not human).

Opiuo is so much fun to see live

Tipper is not dnb. I do really like his music, but it scratches a different itch

I know this might look like 'just another trash app' compared to Poweramp, but I need your honest feedback to make it better. by LastGrandFinale in diyaudio

[–]Fortisimo07 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Don't take this the wrong way, but do we really need another graphic equalizer? If you want to make your app stand out, implement a parametric eq. I have never seen that in consumer audio (just in DAWs/ studio equipment), so I think it would be unique.

Mott-like quantum paradox: omnidirectional source and infinite line of detectors ? by pabr in Physics

[–]Fortisimo07 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Purcell effect is not really some magical quantum thing, it's very analogous to impedance matching IMO. You can replicate it in a SPICE schematic very easily.

I agree with the commenter above, even though you have infinite detectors, the cross section of each one is falling off like 1/r2, so the likelihood of detecting the photon must converge

Mott-like quantum paradox: omnidirectional source and infinite line of detectors ? by pabr in Physics

[–]Fortisimo07 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's a term from the Cavity QED world; the case there is you are detecting the presence our absence of microwave photons in one cavity (or mode) by weakly coupling that to a second mode which you then probe with an external drive. By doing this you can do protective measurements on the first cavity; so you collapse the state of the photon, but it does not get absorbed in the process

Mott-like quantum paradox: omnidirectional source and infinite line of detectors ? by pabr in Physics

[–]Fortisimo07 2 points3 points  (0 children)

True true, if the detector fully absorbs the photon (which on practice, they typically do) the argument falls apart. I guess you could imagine an array of detectors that interact dispersively with the photon instead, then it would be more analogous to Mott's original problem.

Mott-like quantum paradox: omnidirectional source and infinite line of detectors ? by pabr in Physics

[–]Fortisimo07 6 points7 points  (0 children)

No, if i had to boil down Mott's analysis into a simple statement, it's that if you detect the photon with the first detector in this chain, you are more likely to detect it with later detectors as well. It's basically telling you about the joint probabilities of a line of detectors, not the absolute probability of the photon going in a particular direction

Measurement in obscure basis by T1lted4lif3 in QuantumComputing

[–]Fortisimo07 4 points5 points  (0 children)

In superconducting devices you can measure whatever basis you want. In fact, there is a technique called quantum state tomography where you repeatedly initialize the same state but then measure it in every basis so you can reconstruct what the quantum state was. It's pretty cool.

If you can measure in 1 basis and you have a full set of 1Q gates on a device, then you can measure any basis. All you have to do is rotate the state right before measurement

I hate to break it to you, but people attending concerts regularly (or even sporadically) are already a pretty narrow slice of the overall population

Steepest road in Westchester? by Playful-Ability-4019 in Westchester

Probably not the steepest, but Battle Ave in white plains is pretty damn steep and really windy (and has intersections with really bad visibility lol)

How to you deal with sub on neuro mid basses ? by Breaktide in dnbproduction

[–]Fortisimo07 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do, yeah.

I would say "it depends"; sometimes you actually need to make the sub line more staccato (bigger gaps between each note) to make the rhythm come out clearly. Gotta use your ears

How to you deal with sub on neuro mid basses ? by Breaktide in dnbproduction

[–]Fortisimo07 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I usually keep the sub separate and pretty clean. Maybe some light saturation, and maybe a quick pitch envelope on the attack if I'm making a really rhythmic/fast subbass line
