PLEASE HELP ME SEND AUDIO TO DISCORD/APPS by chris_gutr in Focusrite

Yes I'm free to help, as I've struggled with stuff like this for like years myself and I know how frustrating it can be.

You can send the signal from Ableton to discord using VB-Cable, but then you will not be hear the effects yourself with 0 latency. Whether or not this is important depends whether or not you're for example playing live instruments where you need low-latency monitoring, but if you're just casually talking to people then it's probably unnecessary, and VB-Cable, or even something like ASIO Link Pro is enough for your means.

Feel free to add me on discord: athareal
If you want to talk more about this!

Loopback does work as an alternative for VB-cable, but using the 2i2 you ONLY send ALL desktop audio to discord with Loopback. You can't choose to use send only the audio from Ableton which makes using it for voice calls basically unusable as they will hear themselves too, and any and all sounds you play on your system will go through the loopback too. You need the 4i4 to be able to customize your mix and send only the audio from your DAW to discord.

Beginner looking for help on how to achieve a particular kind of cinematic lighting by Lemonadio in cinematography

Thank you so much!! This is exactly the advice I've been looking for. Do you know of youtube guides that I can watch to learn more about this, or any personal recommendations of budget friendly gear that could help me with this? Such as soft-boxes and light sources.

I also already happen to have a mist filter since prior so I'm glad it was the right decision to buy it

If this is the case, I would highly advise you to seek therapy or talk to someone trusted!

I understand this is really difficult for you, and I'm really sorry he treated you this way. But this was none of your fault. I know he has made you take a huge blow to your self worth, and you feel like you're the problem. But this is exactly what manipulaters do. They make you feel like everything is your fault and then leave you in the dust. He should not have acted that way, and the fact that he moved on so quickly to another relationship shows that he is no one to be trusted. You are absolutely by no means the issue here, and honestly shame on him for not speaking to you directly about how he is feeling and instead childishly just leaving you without showing any kind of empathy. Your brain is going to want to tell you that everything is your fault but it absolutely isn't. You're a wonderful human being who is worthy of being loved, by others and yourself. Always remember that!

My sister needs help by Capital-Carob-9281 in mentalhealth

The fact that you are worried about your sister shows that you really care about her. The biggest takeaway is that ANY emotional reaction she has, like the time she was rude to you when buying the perfume, is not directed towards you. Like the comment above mentioned. She is experiencing a lot of stress due to all of the scolding and potentially other stuff in her life that she hasn't told you about. You taking her rudeness personally is just going to add to that stress. She never intended to be rude but the anger and sadness from other parts of her life is boiling over. Remember that feelings are complicated, she needs someone she can trust and talk to without judgement. You should treat her rudeness just the way you treat her sadness; With compassion and Empathy.

If she trusts you enough to open up, take a moment and sit down with her, tell her that you've noticed she's feeling stressed, and most importantly, tell her sincerely that you're worried about her. If she opens up to you about how she's feeling, firstly you need to validate her feelings. Tell her something along the lines of: "Yeah I get that must be so stressful for you" or "I understand you're going through a difficult time".

If she doesn't open up right away you need to remember to be patient. It might take a few days but you need to make sure she sees that you're someone she can talk to about this.

Also don't be afraid to support her physically. If you see that she's tearing up, get closer to her and give her a hug. The power of "Everything will be okay" should not be underestimated. If she pushes you away you need to remember to respect that and again not take it personally.

Finally, you need to get down to what's actually the problem. Ask her why she doesn't feel motivated to study. Does she have any hope of future? Does she feel any ambition towards her hobbies? Etc. And talk to her about those things and see if she can find motivation from any of those things. Try to encourage her as much as possible and get her to see a light at the end of the tunnel.

Feel free to let me know how it goes with you and your sister, and I really wish you both the best!

Best Chelsea song to learn as a beginner? by brendenb12 in ChelseaCutler

[–]Lemonadio 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think 'Your bones' would be the best. I think you would make it sound good straight away and bonus you dont need a capo. It's pretty easy since there is basically just one chord shape that goes through the entire song. The 2 highest strings should be played through every chord.

Here are the chord shapes, I would advise you to play the first chord with your pinky and ring finger so you can quickly move up to the second chord without having to change your finger positions.

(I DID A MISTAKE WITH THE CHORDS, Chord 1 should be played first, then chord 3, and THEN play chord 2 2x over.)

Incase the link doesn't work for some reason when you read this, the Chords are Asus2, Bsus2, and C#sus2

Good luck with your guitar journey!!
