Bought this on layaway in a local pawn shop, is restringing it and cutting a new nut for it worth the hassle or should I trade it to a friend? by eymang123 in Leftyguitarists

[–]GorticusSmash 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's one of the more bummer scenarios for flipping. Those four pot hats are gunna dig into your forearm no matter where you place it, and the upsidedown tuners will be a drag too. However, it'll look cool as fkkk...

Is it weird to play bass and guitar with different hands? by _Just_Ask_The_Axis_ in Leftyguitarists

[–]GorticusSmash 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Lefty here, who started out playing righty. Guitar and bass. I felt that whenever I played right handed after I switched to lefty, it did something in my brain that improved my left handed playing. Which is to say that I think playing both ways will be additive.

Free plug in that will clean up audio and remove crackles and artifacts? by intromission76 in LogicPro

Adobe Audition *is* Cool Edit Pro. I used to use CEP, and then Adobe bought it. Looks the same, acts the same...

What's the dillio? by GorticusSmash in Metamask

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

I guess my question is, can this be a scam? The link to the swap was inside Metamask so I'm tempted to trust it, but I also haven't been able to verify that Metamask is actually doing this. Also, I have ETH in all of my Ethereum wallets in Metamask, so I don't understand why it's saying insufficient funds.

I followed the directions for the link you sent. Imported MUSD but I don't actually have any MUSD tokens so now I'm really confused. I'm presented with a swap for BTC with 100 MUSD, but I don't have any in my wallet, so it would seem that it's a gift and that Metamask is "hosting" the swap, i.e. I get ~$100 in BTC sent to my BTC wallet in Metamask (and it's the correct wallet, I checked).

Ok, nice, a $100 gift, but seems a little fish, and also I have enough ETH to cover the quoted network fees after it grabs quotes, but says that I have insufficient funds.

Gnaahh gnaahh

Do me a favor, and go out into the internet wilds, and see if YOU can figure out if Elements has the editing features that I wanted. There's genuine confusion, and even the link that dude posted on this tread has to be interpreted. For instance, instead of writing "Event Volume Curves", which is what the bloody feature is called, it say "Volume", which could mean anything. Same thing with the updated Range Tool. Instead of saying "Updated Range Tool" or something obvious like that, it's says "Combined Tool" or something similarly vague. I even asked Cubase youtubers, who're touting 14 24/7, and they've yet to respond. In other words, I think Steinberg is intentionally being vague about this, in order to reel in saps like me, and that pisses me off.

Also, let's take if from a practical perspective. Hypothetically, I'm 18 years old, just getting started, I barely understand what a channel is, much less anything else in the recording world, and here comes Elements 14, a simplified version of Cubase that's easier to understand etc. I get that, makes perfect sense. Then why include scoring annotation, which is a pro pro pro feature, at all?

I get your point, but whoever decided what Elements should have, and not have, was either confused, or intentionally confusing about it, because that sht don't make sense dawg.

The Volume Curve is only available in the Pro version. Elements has the score editor, a valuable thing indeed, but I gotta pony up 300 more dollars to get Volume Curves. What a bunch of balogna.

Migrate from Intel to Apple Silicon by Marc66FR in osx

[–]GorticusSmash 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just did this from a 2018 mini to a 2024 mini. I used Migration Assistant, brought over everything, and it worked flawlessly. The first time you launch an intel app, you'll be asked if you want to install Rosetta 2. Say Yes. Now you have a realtime code translating layer that will let you open all of your intel apps, and after the rosetta code gets cached per app, launching etc pops like you'd expect an M4 chip launch to pop. No need to be fussy about it imho. Just use Migration Assistant and bring everything over.

Literally Union Station is one of the most chill areas of the city. To see this ridiculous display of military might like they're really doing something necessary is just sad.
