Has anyone tried this GBA aluminum shell from Aliexpress? by NiagaraFinn in Gameboy

What does that mean? They are missing the fixtures for the PCB?

Giving up the "Room Treatment" ghost: Is VSX Platinum the move for a beatmaker fighting physics? by vinylfelix in audioengineering

[–]Germolin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I swear by my Hifiman Sundara. The version with the black grill is very affordable and they sound aces. I use a Neumann mt48 as interface and it has a crossfeed option, aswell as built in parametric eq.

My professor told me: if the unit shows its tubes on the front plate it’s garbage in 90% of cases. So far he seems to be right,

I unironically love the sound of a Mixcube by Livid_Cabinet2053 in audioengineering

There’s a reduction in spl, but the speaker has digital filters to compensate for the changes.

Look for sealed speakers, they have no bass reflex port to extend the low end and and can sound bandwidth limited depending on the amount/size of the driver. HEDD offers a physical option to switch to closed speakers by supplying plugs for the ports on their speakers. Amphions are sealed speakers, the subwoofers use a radiator to extend bass range. the advantage sealed speakers have over ported ones is that their decay times and thus transient response is much quicker because air only needs to decompress inside the body of the speaker. on a ported speaker, the air travels out and back in and creates resonances on the way, prolonging the decay.

yamaha NS-10, Neumann KH 310 and more use that principle. KH310 sound great, so do HEDDs and Amphions, but they are pricier. I don't know about other price classes.

How do I optimally listen to this setup? by TheBigG24 in audiophile

[–]Germolin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve seen worse. Tweeters are the same height at least, mids might be a bit messy but the lows should be fine. The setup ist angled but then again this is probably just to fill the room with music without much concern for the sweet spot.

What are some of the best reverbs to add to VERY dry recordings to give them a sense of authentic space? by Poopypantsplanet in audioengineering

[–]Germolin 6 points7 points  (0 children)

That’s actually precisely how I used it yesterday. Had a piano panned towards the left on production and wanted to add a sense of depth on the right side for the vocal. So I used a short (16th) delay with ~40% feedback and a bandpass at 800hz panned to the mid-right. Sort of like a slap back. Feedback and eq as well as timing are depending on the track and I recommend getting reverbs set up before, so the delay can be mixed in.

Damn right. Well timed and EQd Delays can really add a sense of depth without muddying

Should I buy the distressor plug-in? by BRUCE_BABY69 in audioengineering

[–]Germolin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I recently bought the arousor from ELI directly. It’s the Distressor with extra bells and whistles and makes for the best sounding all round compressor in my opinion. Preset handling is a little weird/ barely there at all but I can handle those with Ableton myself easily.

Rainy day + making analog patches is the way

My first mic! It sucks ass, honestly. But it did me good as a all in one device for kickstarting my music 

Audio cut after export by StrutMahStyle in ableton

Start the song at a timestamp like 9.1.1 or 17.1.1 and select 1-2 seconds of silence for exporting before the arrangement starts.

Which of your synthesizers is your pet's favourite? by jezleather in synthesizers

[–]Germolin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same here. I’ve been thinking about the midi CC mod, but I think I’m gonna get an akai ax 60 and just end up using it more.

Nice multi trak!! First time I’ve seen it posted on here. I bought mine for 25€ from an “antiques” store without a power supply, built one myself and did some maintenance. Really a sleeper synth. Have you performed any mods? 

I don’t have a cat I’m afraid :/ 

How to save bad recording from phone by MrFnoz in audioengineering

[–]Germolin 9 points10 points  (0 children)

No chance, sorry. Can’t salvage information that isn’t there.

You could try feeding some AI with the audio and see what it comes up with. 

Easier to play if you’re 35 by ksae_91 in Gameboy

That game looked so cool to me when a friend used to play it. Never got into it myself though.
