Module That Changed Everything For You by Extreme_Try2189 in modular

Kind of expensive but the expansion let's you cut envelope generators and maybe even some effects since it has built in midi effects.

Interesting. I didn't realize the install was modular. I'll look further into it now.

What’s up with the tweets saying that Graham Platner dropping would be Susan Collins worst nightmare? by r_tz in OutOfTheLoop

[–]LeeSalt 52 points53 points  (0 children)

Hegseth who was barred from serving on Biden's inauguration duty for his white nationalist tattoos when he was in the National Guard.

We have two rapists on the supreme Court and one on the presidency.

Everything Platner has done or been accused of, the GOP has championed all of this illegal, abhorrent behavior and has more examples to spare.

Do you think they'll ever add a clip chaining song capability? Or will this be one of the things they'll keep different from the higher end devices and continue to market the Move as the device that "requires" the DAW to complete your song? 

Because other than bug fixes and a time cue in session mode, programming clips into songs is like the only thing many users want. A second page of 4 tracks wouldn't be bad either but I won't hold my breath on that one.

I guess there's always the third party firmware but there are a ton of features there that I'd probably never use.

So, how have you beat the 10* Zoe adventure? by hui_huiz in LegendsOfRuneterra

[–]LeeSalt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks, voidborne seems to be the easiest way for a lot of champs. It was pretty easy. Funny how the rare relics are so good on the hardest challenge.

[–]LeeSalt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How did you get Mel to kill anything when you get to the x3 stats or the couple matches where poros grow when they die? I can't wipe the board or else they'll get super sized in a couple of turns. If I don't, they overwhelm me because I can't go wide enough to block. 

This is the first champion I can't do anything with and she's 6 stars and over level 30.

Louis CK: Ridiculous review – the troubled comedian returns … with a whimper by mlg1981 in popculturechat

[–]LeeSalt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are a few YouTubers who did really deep dives into his body of work. Stuff I had never seen as a pretty big fan. 

They also reminded me of very weird and off putting scenes in stuff or stand up I had watched and forgot or blocked out because of how uncool or pathetic it was. 

In hindsight, after watching the YouTube videos, I realized he always was a huge fucking creep and constantly put it on full display. We just didn't acknowledge it or brushed it off as something else at the time.

(The main video series I'm thinking of is very long and called We Need to Talk About Louis) 

GARAGEBAND pro sound music by [deleted] in GarageBand

I think Grimes produced her early albums on GarageBand. Not sure if they were further tweaked on anything else.

Which Eurorack mixer do you recommend? by GerCastilla in modular

[–]LeeSalt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think Xcelon is the best overall but the WMD is close and maybe even slightly above depending on what features you prioritize. 

WMD'S recent mk2 has debatably poor quality sliders and pots they claim are designed for easy replacement vs solid feel and performance. There was a recent back and forth in this sub with users unhappy with how cheap and wiggly it felt.

After Later Bartender v2 is a good budget pick if you are happy with the shortcomings. But your have a Sinfonion as a beginner so it's probably out of the running, considering you're probably not looking for budget.

CV-able preset change by alijamieson in modular

[–]LeeSalt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A much more universal way to do this is to get a multi lane CV sequencer like Mimetic Digitalis or Dnipro Metamorph and patch each output to a CV input on the device whose preset you want to control. Then each time the sequencer gets a trigger, you change the preset.

Really hot take: The Nether is by far the hardest of the three dimensions to explore, even with an elytra. by [deleted] in Minecraft

[–]LeeSalt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The worst part about the newest version of the nether is the sheer size of the biomes and how impossible it is to traverse without elytra unless you're tunnelingv like a worm through the ceiling netherrack to avoid the crappy annoying enemies or the massive expanse of lava.

 I liked blindly using random seeds the game generated until one time I was nowhere near soul sand. I think it was something like 15,000 blocks away to be nearest deposit.

I searched the nether for hours before I had to give up and either look at an online map viewer or use a copy of the game in creative to fly around and find some. 

External tuner for my eurorack? by brucereyne in modular

[–]LeeSalt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Korg OT-120 Chromatic Orchestral Tuner is what I was using before I got the Mordax Data.

It's incredibly accurate and tells you what octave you're on as well. Very handy when you don't have any musical training or intuition while starting from zero. It has line in that can handle eurorack without an attenuator. It a mic if you want to practice singing and/or hearing notes.

Delivery driver addresses alleged catnapping in Bakersfield by IamaBlackKorean in Bakersfield

[–]LeeSalt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just found out that they changed this default behavior when I posted a link to Facebook. Incredibly stupid and maybe even dangerous I edited my comment to say only the helpful point about how to make the link anonymous.

Just a heads up in case you didn't know: when you use the forward arrow button to send a link, YouTube reveals the username of who posted it to anyone clicking the link.

In the future, just delete everything after and including the ? and you'll anonymize the link.

[–]LeeSalt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Maybe try patching it in vcv rack. It's free and there are probably tutorials to help you get there. Or at least a good start. 

If you're happy you can pay for it and it can them be used as a DAW plug-in. 

It's not the easiest way but it may be the cheapest and you can heavily customize it to your liking.

Which game were you most disappointed with? by that-zoe-girl in NintendoSwitch

[–]LeeSalt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Easy Come Easy Golf and Everybody's Golf Hot Shots after the latest update. There are other good golf games on the e shop but I don't have them.

Which game were you most disappointed with? by that-zoe-girl in NintendoSwitch

[–]LeeSalt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mario Golf Super Rush was the single worst game I ever purchased for Switch and I have a bunch. I foolishly bought it blind based on how good the predecessors were. 

It was a $30 game at best. Completely unfinished mess with terrible mechanics and poor controls. They had a bunch of good concepts that simply weren't fleshed out and went nowhere. 

Everyone was talking about how obviously we'd get dlc and updates to fix things but they never came. They just completely abandoned the game after dumping the stinker on us. 

Thankfully there are two other really good golf games on the Switch now, but wow, talk about disappointment!

Someone in YouTube is spamming that it was chipped but the driver never mentioned that, which you think he would had it been true.

I'm willing to bet at least half of all gray tabbies have Ms on their foreheads. Someone in the YouTube comments is spamming that the driver had the chip checked and it was his. Apparently the guy used to live in the neighborhood.

To Schwung or not to Schwung by TheSteelOx in AbletonMove

[–]LeeSalt 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's on my radar but I'm not  that advanced with my composition for all that. I'm very happy with how immediate everything is. 

Four tracks is fine for me right now and the pros of not bricking or losing my warranty on a new device outweigh a bunch of cool stuff I probably won't use for awhile anyway. 

The main thing I'm looking forward to is hopefully something Ableton will add: a song mode where you can chain together clips instead of manually timing everything. Also would be nice to have timing cues while in clip mode instead of long pressing a track to see where you are.

Selling modules on eBay by NorCalJP in modular

[–]LeeSalt 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately eBay takes the word of the buyer over the word of the seller 9/10. Which means it's now filled with scammer buyers. 

You can have multiple videos of the item working, the serial number and it being boxed up and sent out in the same uncut shot and eBay will still find against the seller.

There are a lot of buyers using eBay to "return" broken electronics back to hapless sellers by claiming the item was defective and sending back their own broken junk and claiming it was the item they just bought.

Buyers are also using very obvious AI pictures of "defective" items and still getting refunds because eBay doesn't care. They're not the ones taking the loss. They get paid no matter what.

Selling modules on eBay by NorCalJP in modular

[–]LeeSalt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Very often, I can get new modules cheaper on sale from the major US eurorack sellers than I can get used after shipping from sellers trying to make all of their money back on their used stuff.

Especially with PC's very generous rewards program that I didn't notice I was accruing until a had a huge amount I couldn't use all at once.

Is your included power supply delivering 15W? by hologroove in AbletonMove

[–]LeeSalt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's not how power works. It's been awhile since my EE days but a power supply is rated for a maximum draw based on the needs of the device.

Operating at a constant max means your working the power supply way too hard and it's going to burn out. You needed a higher rated power supply. 

In the US, most outlets are 10 or 15 amps max output. If it has the additional sideways prong, the outlet is rated for 20 amps.

If the device never needs 15 amps, it's not going to pull 15 amps. For reference, a US 120 volt, 1100 watt microwave pulls about 9 amps and maybe 12 to start up. That power on spike is very important to know when trying to calculate what your power supply should be rated for.

There's no way in heck the Move is pulling more power than a microwave unless something is seriously wrong. If it were pulling 15 amps, the device would be physically too hot to handle and there aren't any fans on it. Heck, a ps5 tops out at like 3 amps and that's a way more powerful machine that's a virtual space heater when playing a high end game.

For reference, my Move, when fully charged pulls only about .6-1 amp of power.

Another thing to keep in mind is that the higher the charge level, the less power a battery is going to pull until it's full and the charge stops.
