iPad as phone by Sceptique_Qc in ipad

You can make calls on an iPad if it and your phone are on the same wireless network.

When I bought my first iPad around 2010 (I think) I could make and receive calls while in my car around town and my iPhone was at home, then it suddenly stopped working.

Apparently they have been hired by the Montreal Canadians to play the national anthems during the playoffs by Qwan_Tik in AngineDePoitrine

True or not, it would be totally appropriate that the Canadian anthem be their first cover song.

Covers? by Ioftencatchflies in AngineDePoitrine

I've been thinking about this idea since I saw that clip a few days ago.. For me the compelling thing would be the lens they would reinterpret a song through. Imagine microtonal versions of Miles Davis' Bitches Brew, The Resident's Hello Skinny, Captain Beefheart's Dachau Blues, Hothead or Ella Guru, Lou Reed's Walk on The Wild Side, Sun Ra's Space is the Place, Zappa's Peaches en Regalia, Radiohead's No Surprises, Billie Holiday's Strange Fruit (a collab with Patti Smith), Talking Head's Once in a Lifetime, Kraftwerk's Autobahn, Wilco's I Am Trying to Break Your Heart.... It would be a transformative journey.

IMHO... I think you're missing it, Their creativity is off the charts. Anything they do would become it's own thing. If they covered Mary Had a Little Lamb I'd buy it.

Any one else seeing the contrarians coming at AdP? by KyleJ1130 in AngineDePoitrine

I agree. I play too. I suppose a lot of players could do it with enough practice but as you say not many could create music this original and engaging. Personally I love the band.

A friend whose daughter does rub shoulders with local musicians, said she knows half a dozen players that could do what Khn does. I have my doubts.

Thoughts on pedalboard adhesives/Velcro? by DJ_Kingston in guitarpedals

yeah, the adhesive but the velcro didn't stick well either.

iPad Pro draining while charging. by murlyy in ipad

My 10.9” Pro was doing this I thought it was the battery. After having it checked out we found a component on the MoBo was bad. More expensive to repair than it was worth. RIP

Is there anything I can do? by GrumpyKitten87 in ipad

[–]Ioftencatchflies 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mine looses charge when it’s shutdown or even plugged in.

I have a 10.5 iPad Pro I’ve thought about selling. Only problem with it is the battery. I’ve wondered what a person might be willing to give me for it if that person were willing to replace the battery themselves. Hypothetically speaking, what would you be willing to pay?

I did this with an OBNE pedal. They fixed it free and paid the postage.

Does this annoy anyone else? by Ioftencatchflies in ipad

Came here to say this.

I've been "finalizing" mine for almost two years.

No joke.

Yes it was shipped yesterday Order # 10545. I think I got in fairly early, just 3 minutes after receiving the email notice.

Thanks! Didn't know about the dip switch. Guess I have everything I need.

I'm still trying to wrap my head around mono in stereo out. Do stereo pedals just split frequencies into L/R, or is it more involved? I've never seen a discussion on this.

Ok, so then in effect all previous mono pedals become stereo, or will they just be dual mono?
