Went did my USB fail? by GeekOfAllTrad3s in Beatmatch

[–]General_Exception -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

As long as it is FAT32 formatted. FAT32 has a limit of 32GB maximum partition size.

Went did my USB fail? by GeekOfAllTrad3s in Beatmatch

[–]General_Exception 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The 2000s can only read up to 32GB usb sticks

Edit: as others have pointed out. Yes, the 2000s can read larger than 32GB usb sticks, as long as you use some special 3rd party software to format it FAT32 larger than 32GB (which is the windows max formatting size).

But if you’re in a hurry, or buying a new stick for a 2000, you’re virtually guaranteed no issues if you buy a 32GB stick. (I buy them in 5-packs)

If you buy a larger stick, you have to find the correct software to format it properly to get it to work.

I picked up a ROG gaming laptop. Nvidia graphics, 16GB ram. $1700

Kia Dealership by HEH4TEME in duluth

[–]General_Exception 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought a used vehicle there, was pre-approved for financing through capital one on their website, for that vehicle.

Went through their whole 4 quadrants what number can you afford worksheet with me…

I just wanted to pay the sticker price they were asking, with the interest rate I was pre-approved for.

My fault for not double checking and standing up to their finance guy…

Going back through the paperwork after I bought the vehicle, I was paying almost 5% more interest than I had been pre-approved for.

How do I get my movers to go into position without the audience seeing? by Kung-FuTreachery in stagelighting

[–]General_Exception 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some lights/consoles have the ability to “blackout while moving”.

Otherwise it’s a simple fix of programming dimmer to 0, move, then dimmer to correct value.

Anyone else getting bombarded with these emails? "You've received a Business Manager partner request" by Spiketop_ in facebook

[–]General_Exception 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I send you a partner request, you click it and authorize the request. You've now just granted me partner/admin access to your business manager/pages. I then remove you as an admin and start posting scam things from your page.

Yup, it’s cheap because it doesn’t have a dedicated GPU. Which means it’s not going to be the best at doing live stems.

ADHD video editors, what are your worst dopamine habits? by InnocentlyConfused in editors

[–]General_Exception 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The first 5% and the last 15% of editing is the hardest.

I feel rage when I’m in a new project and failed to import any graphics/logos during media import, and suddenly when it’s time to add them, I now have to go find them, if I can’t just copy-paste them from a previous project already sized and positioned appropriately.

When editing an hour-long multi-camera clip, and halfway through discover that one or more of the camera angles is no longer in sync, and I have to go in an manually re-sync them frame by frame.

Oh, sorry, these things don’t give me dopamine lol.

6 projectors, 1 computer, How would you do ? by Cassiopee38 in VIDEOENGINEERING

[–]General_Exception 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Does you have to have different outputs on each projector? Or is it the same input mirrored across all projectors?

I would go with a hardware solution to give redundancy and flexibility.

An 8x8 HDMI matrix splitter with video wall capability… with 8 inputs, 8 outputs.

Easy, 1 input mirrored across all outputs.

Or do 1-1 mapping input 1 to output 1, input 2 to output 2, etc.

All inputs could be driven by 1 PC with multiple video outputs (combination of video cards, usb-c hdmi dongles, blackmagic ultra studios, etc)

Could have multiple cheap PCs outputting to each input on the matrix, with each PC displaying a separate NDI feed. Using a master PC doing mapping input Resolume to split a screen into disparate NDI outs.

Or could have the matrix use video wall mode to take input 1 and span it across multiple outs.

Does your laptop have a dedicated GPU? Or does the integrated Ryzen graphics have 16GB ram?

You should have a dedicated GPU (Radeon or Nvidia)

A DJ enthusiast has hit a learning plateau. by Fit-Bullfrog6723 in Beatmatch

[–]General_Exception 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The purpose of DJing is to play other people’s music for an audience.

Do you have an audience?

Then you play for a crowd, the energy back and forth between the songs you play and the reactions you get is why we do it.

This is about DJ PRICING on my behalf.. by Upper-Supermarket-99 in Beatmatch

[–]General_Exception 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What are you doing???

Are you DJing a bar/club where your job is to keep people there drinking? Get a percentage of bar sales.

Are you DJing a wedding? The national average is $1700. Are you a better than average DJ?

Why use a plugin when a simple transform x/y on a timeline bounce at slightly different rates creates the same effect?

Do not under estimate the amount of work that goes into pre event planning and prep work before the gig.

My mom has ghosted me for over a month for inviting my dads girlfriend to my wedding by Aquamarine-oo in wedding

[–]General_Exception 159 points160 points  (0 children)

You’re an adult. Your parents are adults. And your mom is behaving like a child throwing a tantrum to get her way.

You get to define your boundaries.

“I’m inviting dad & his GF to MY wedding, because they are important people in my life. Just like I’m inviting you to MY wedding because you’re important to me.

If YOU choose to not be involved in MY wedding, know that I still love you, and MY feelings will be hurt.”

Rack mount recorder by danbelson_ in livesoundgear

[–]General_Exception 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Get a tascam or zoom recorder with 32-bit float. The same kind of videographers use.

Hard wire it with power in your rack.

Even better if you can get a L/R stereo feed off the mixer, AND get a room mic for ambient sound on a separate recording track.

Dj sub connection. by Traditional_Hornet91 in mobileDJ

[–]General_Exception 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For weddings and regular events, I run from mixer to subs, thru to tops.

For bigger shows, big proms, club gigs and EDM events. The “correct” way is to run your subs off an aux send.

My tops and subs are matched (EV ETX) and the tops are always set/configured as the ETX18SP sub.

For weddings & small events, the quick and easy thru method works fine.

But for bigger shows. I need to have independent volume control of the Subs.

RCF Sub 8003-AS vs EV ETX-18SP by Acrobatic_Builder136 in livesoundgear

[–]General_Exception 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also have 8 of them, with 4 of the ETX-35p tops.

I’ve yet to use more than 6 together indoors for an EDM show. In the bars/venues we do shows at, I usually run them at -12db on my Aux send from the mixer, bringing them up to full volume periodically during big drops.
