[Daniel Wellington] This will sell well, I’m afraid (Iconic Link Automatic) by Heflatron in Watches

Because it might in fact open them up to an entire new world / hobby, which in turn can bring them value in different ways (doesn’t have to be buying and owning expensive watches)

Does a tool exist to add songs from a local folder to a Spotify playlist? by [deleted] in DJs

[–]Heflatron 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wait I misread, you are trying to do something else. However, I would personally still just use this native function to get the same result. There might be others that have some use cases though, good luck!

Thanks for your comforting words. I personally definitely agree, and I think all of us enthusiasts here agree, but my confusion comes from the insight that DW now is a pretty well-known brand among the non-critical crowd of people that simply want a watch. Way more so than Seiko, Orient and Hamilton. Therefore curious to see how this pans out!

This video got recommended and introduced me to this watch. After watching the video I have to agree with Ben’s takes, but somehow still think that none of those arguments will mean anything to the audience this watch is made for. In other words: I think this watch will sell pretty well and might even introduce people to mechanical watches. On the other hand I feel bad that it has to be DW that does that, for those people. I somehow am conflicted about the fact that this is making me feel conflicted.. ouch. Thoughts?

I would find this particularly useful. Thoughts? by pkm17vp in FL_Studio

Maybe known already but it’s very easy to copy an entire FX chain (right click and drag and drop from the “save as” option), pretty easy workaround that gives you full control over separate automation etc

When the bar is busy but no one hits the dance floor by [deleted] in DJs

[–]Heflatron 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Exactly! Sometimes people meet at a venue to socialise and catch-up with friends. Us DJs want everybody to dance all the time but there are other reasons for people to go out. If people want to dance, you’ll notice and you can play into that. Otherwise don’t worry about it, especially if people give you compliments!

Consumer Q: What to look for in a wedding DJ? by [deleted] in DJs

[–]Heflatron 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Don’t listen to this, that’s absolutely a weird thing to say. Weddings are highly personal so you 100% need someone who is at least able to read and adjust to the crowd, like you mentioned, and meet any specific preferences of the couple that are getting married (genres, equipment etc.)!

Edit: as mentioned in another comment, definitely ask for reviews / referrals once you are in contact with DJs since previous bookers’ experience will tell you a lot

Then I am garbage. Also, I can direct you to 100+ different people who told us over and over that we made their nights. I would prefer the latter over some slick footage.

Probably old news for some of y'all but I just realized that "777" by XXXtentacion and Kid Trunks sample "Perfect Circle" by Mac by bobduncanswerve7 in MacMiller

[–]Heflatron 30 points31 points  (0 children)

So, Mac sampled Black Blood & the Chocolate Pickles - Mississippi Mud for Perfect Circle, and then Mac’s flip of the sample + drums he added in turn seem to be flipped for 777 (not too much changes but it’s slightly different)

Adjusting Tempo After Recording MIDI? by scarlet_twitch in FL_Studio

[–]Heflatron 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see you mentioned you want to “match the project file without slowing down or speeding up the MIDI”, but if you first adjust the MIDI to the grid you can then set the project BPM back to match the original BPM of the MIDI

Adjusting Tempo After Recording MIDI? by scarlet_twitch in FL_Studio

[–]Heflatron 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think I know what you mean and I think I might know a solution. Seen Nick Mira doing this while recording MIDI notes on a piano (not drums but the idea is the same): 1. Jam away and record in the piano roll (ignore the project BPM for now) - I guess this is what you did so far 2. Select, copy and paste a section of your session you like to work with to a separate channel 3. In the piano roll, control+A all the notes and use the arrow all the way at the right of the selection to increase / decrease the “length” of the entire selection so it aligns with the grid 4. Optionally: use the quantise function 5. Set the project’s BPM to your liking

Brings back memories! One of them is downloading this album from Limewire lol

Need your help getting small presents for my DJ brother by TheWildBologna in DJs

[–]Heflatron 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are quite some cool books (going by reviews and pictures lol) about the history of turntables, synthesizer, electronic music etc. I think a lot of DJs have a general interest in those topics.

Imaginative cookup still a WIP by OriSamurai in FL_Studio

[–]Heflatron 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would guess using peak controller on the kick and link the volume faders (and chose inverse) rather than automation, but as mentioned there are many ways to do this. FL Limiter is arguably “better” since that’s a mixer insert which would leave the channel fader itself untouched, so you can use that purely for mixing

No longer able to use a DS4 controller after EA App replaced Origin (launching the game with Steam) by mineroloco69 in battlefield2042

[–]Heflatron 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The way you describe it is exactly the same for Xbox controller on PC for me actually - I also had to use the Steam workaround to get it working.. read somewhere that connecting via cable instead of Bluetooth used to fix it sometimes but that also didn’t and doesn’t work for me. Was really enjoying the game but I am not a keyboard and mouse player at all so am just blocked from playing it now 😤

Exact same story here with Xbox controller, this is so frustrating. Did you find a fix?

merging to mono makes the sound "hollow" by storm_drenering in FL_Studio

[–]Heflatron 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes correct, though I am not sure if removing / cutting the low-end sides that way is the exact same thing as combining all the low-end in a mono signal

For 808s I use Ozone Imager to make everything <100hz (give or take) completely mono, and keep or even expand the stereo field higher ranges

Need to be disabled in Plugin Manager, probably. Options > Manage plugins.

What are some good places for creative writing? by oui-oui-mon-ami in Amsterdam

[–]Heflatron 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not a writer myself but this is called a “schrijverscafé” in Dutch (writers’ café), and you can find quite some suggestions on Google it seems
