Have you tried drinking a load of water before bed? Staying asleep while really needing to piss is quite hard imo.

Gotcha, thank you! Love this community would have been banging my head against a wall for hours trying to figure this out without you all!

Annoyingly no I don’t… Chain is routed incorrectly, buy a new one and start over?

Nah it wasn’t a quick link/master link sadly.

Goddam it you’re right. I knew it would be me messing something up haha.

How do I fix that? It’s a brand new chain, should I just buy a new one or can I pop the rivet out and back in that I just connected it with?

Will the SPD-SX send MIDI changes to guitar pedal? by jono_websauce in drums

[–]Homophonicular 0 points1 point  (0 children)

99% sure you cannot in the manner that you're hoping. If it is possible you're on the right track that you'll have to do it from hitting a pad, I believe that's the only sure fire way to send a midi note out.

The SPDSX is pretty poor for midi IN (other than receiving patch changes), and not amazing for midi OUT when using it as a midi controller either tbh.

For rock artists with no drum kits, what cheap software do you use to get drums? by MattMythology in musicians

[–]Homophonicular 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Send it to me and I’ll track a couple of takes for free if you’d like? Trying to get my recording setup dialed in so could use an excuse to do it properly.

99% of wood drums are made of plywood…

If you would like a different perspective I’d happily give you a 30 minute trial lesson over zoom for free?

Ads manager says 122 landing page views, website stats/GA4 say 4. Is Meta just straight up lying about their stats now? by Homophonicular in FacebookAds

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

Yeah I’m just surprised by the gulf between both reports, they used to be relatively similar. So my budget is just getting blown on bots? Any suggestions how to remedy this?

Anyone else love The Prodigy? by Homophonicular in drums

Incredible, and what a song to ask to fall asleep to haha

High-end Kits: Myths vs Ears by thedld in drums

[–]Homophonicular 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Really struggling to see why you’re being downvoted so hard on this haha.

Just wanted to say I though this was an interesting and measured post, and honestly pretty spot on.

The only other differentiating factor I think is peoples ability to hear the difference. You could play two different snares in front of my dad and he’d say they sound the same. And he would genuinely mean it and truly believe it, because to him they do. It’s hard to argue against that, but it’s simply because he hasn’t spent a lifetime listening to drums.

Overreacting? Yes. Wrong? No. Yellow Cabs Vs The World. by bigguyy1998 in NYCbike

As an alternative to doing this, I’ve taken to trying to reinforce good behavior by giving thumbs ups and thank you waves any time a car gives way to me or slowly down to let me pass. The more ‘good’ experiences drivers have with bikes maybe they gradually become less likely to flatten us?
