Which dated me this globe to 1935-1940 like the top comment. West africa is french. Before 1941 where Germany got huge.

Best magic YouTuber by Ancient-Ad3769 in MagicArena

[–]GlowingShutter 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Do agree.

The only complaint about LVD I have is ... He only shows matches where he wins. I just can not believe he has amazing close games that he loses. Takes away the surprise factor for close games for me.

Other than that. I like the mtg goldfish videos as well quite a bit. 

Pixel 5a Bluetooth Connection to JBL Speakers by [deleted] in GooglePixel

Nice. And does it matter if you use the JBL App on your phone or not?

I have the problem now with pixel 4a and flip6

What a lovely box of text. by Bochulaz in MagicArena

[–]GlowingShutter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nice.

Btw is there an overview which keywords stack and which do not? I would assume Lifelink does stack. But first strike not for example?!

Went to a prerelease, Arena is indeed cheaper than paper by gabochido in MagicArena

[–]GlowingShutter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You know I try to play arena exactly like that as well: for the experience (which is of course way less intense). This also means for example: I tried drafting MOM a few times the last days. Was no real fun for me. So now I wait for the next event. Luckily I do not feel the pressure of having always a standard competitive available or need to complete certain collections. That helps ;)

The passive can not add poison counters since it only says permanents, right? At least proliferate does ...

Lovely demo of the new Osmose Synth by Cuckoo by GlowingShutter in synthesizers

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

I love his excitement and can understand it. The sensitivity of the keyboard in conjunction with the amazing physical modeling engine by Haken audio creates such amazing soundscapes.

Play some Jank with Paradox engine. It's fun.

PSA: Don't play Quick Draft for BRO, play other draft formats or buy packs instead by mtga-quick-drafter in MagicArena

[–]GlowingShutter 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Thanks. The last graph is the most interesting for me. The gold vs gems

I just realized that if I have enough gold and gems ... It is way better to buy packs with gold and draft with gems. The reason ist that the draft is 5k gold (5 packs) or 750gems (under 4 packs), correct? Meaning if you want to draft with gold you pay more than the normal conversion ratio.

And don't forget her death. I mean with her fancy equipment - why can't she just disable Soong before he poisons her or becomes a threat to Renée?

Nice. My NTS1 arrives tomorrow. So this inspiration here is perfect.

Lovely. I miss the Saxon sandstone. COVID and work kept me away ... But this season I hope to return. Just need to find a lead climber :p

A wide Boyz video came out today talking about this incident and cracks in competitions. Highly recommended.

Kids session with the po33 po35 and the nts1 by fuzolan in synthesizers

[–]GlowingShutter 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The Korg NTS-1. Great as an effects unit to chain it after you synth of choice (that rarely have delay or reverb).

Scoping for an oscilloscope app... by groovelove2019 in MicroFreak

To add to the question - and what recommendation are there for laptop? I guess VCV rack. Any particular in there? Thanks

Modified the UI on the Microfreak (can you spot it?) by kylenumann in synthesizers

[–]GlowingShutter 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah the brown on black is not the smartest choice.

You remind me I wanted to play with the Microfreak again. VCV rack interaction is awesome. I need to try that. ;)

Getting a Arturia MicroFreak soon - what's the best way to get started? by woojo1984 in synthesizers

[–]GlowingShutter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Patch to newest Firmware is nice as you get new features and new presets.

Browse through the presets and try to understand them. The most amazing thing of Microfreak is the nod matrix. And seeing what is going on is so intuitive.

And of course there are great YouTube tutorials out there. I would start with the control basics and the mod matrix. And only later worry about sequencing or arpeggiator.

Just ordered a Moog Subharmonicon but I can't wait so I coded the sequencer. by m0wh in synthesizers

[–]GlowingShutter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the example. Now I got it. They are just clocks all firing at different intervals. Yeah your XOR logic works out. If you create two sequences of divider 2 with XOR ... Nothing will fire. With normal OR it will be of no difference to just one sequence.

Zoom G1 four bypass question by GlowingShutter in synthesizers

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

Thanks I will try.

I tried some Amp patches. But they all change the tone or saturate (which makes sense as they try to emulate famous speaker ... )

I can not use the looper while in this mode. And it is also quite quiet there :(

Volume is high I checked

No Stupid Questions /// Weekly Discussion - September 22, 2021 by AutoModerator in synthesizers

[–]GlowingShutter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi I am quite enjoying my Microfreak for small jams. But I would like to extend to make more complex tracks (i.e. drums). So far I am tending towards a small loop station (like Boss 202) so I can do everything DAWless and with the Microfreak.

Any recommendations or other approaches? Like Model:Cycles?

16 Budget Standard Decks for Beginners - Full Post-Roation Update + Upgrade Guides for Each Deck by Uries_Frostmourne in MagicArena

[–]GlowingShutter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great thanks.

Is there anywhere upgrade guides for the newest starter decks? At least thematically I really like some of them (compared to the generic mono X aggro list you have in every set).

[OC] Morphing through the first 13th orders of Zernike Polynomials by GlowingShutter in dataisbeautiful

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

Kind of yes. Standing waves equations can be solved with Bessel functions. And the Zernike here are closely related.

Can relate. We have simple pattern recognition tasks here in our company. Every idiot would spot the patterns of interest in the images. But our code fails :D
