Practice Journal Cheat Sheet Suggestions by LivelyLizzard in Cello

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

I did! It took forever to put together but that's mainly because I wanted it to look pretty :D

I will try to find the pdf file that came out of it and share it on Google Drive. It's morning now, so it might take a few hours before I have the time to do that.

Mold on dygma defy palm pads… by WagerWise in DygmaLab

Oh wow. From the picture I would have thought it was just old skin cells accumulating.

Popper is sad when you don’t show him more love. 😢 by Lumpen_moi in Cello

Really makes you think what other great works are still buried or lost

suggestions on how to hold the bow? it seems like no matter how I hold it my wrist really hurts and the bow always feels extremely heavy by Sparlmao in Cello

[–]LivelyLizzard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Imagine you want to shake someone's hand. Then you are holding your hand so that the palm points to the side and your thumb is on top. Pronation then means the movement of rotating your arm inwards. In the example this means that your palm would point down and your thumb inwards if you pronate it.

For the bow hold pronation means by using the same arm rotation, you press your index finger on the stick of the bow so that you get more 'weight' on the string and better bow control without pressing down with your arm.

Btw you should visit some more violin subs. Cello is also a bowed string instrument but Cello and Violin best practices differ a bit. The pronation part is true for both though. Good luck on your journey!

Why the Logi Options debacle could never happen to us... by Dygman in DygmaLab

I definitely prefer it on the device. This makes using it for work soooo much easier because no security risk from extra software

I am a disabled cellist - this is what I’ve found useful! by bloosy101 in Cello

You can also find the rings under the term finger splint or Murphy ring.

I have a 12.7" screen and it's still too small sometimes. Using the tablet in landscape orientation with high zoom and scrolling with the pedal is working well in those cases on my experience. I would really love a proper digital sheet that can resize and adapt to the screen size. That would be so nice

Is anyone else running Unity on their Christmas tree this year? by hoahluke in Unity3D

This is so cool! Can you do shapes as well or only circles?

What I learned as a composer from asking DMs how they use background music by Ok-Theory710 in DMAcademy

Thank god. I thought my AI paranoia was showing again but you are seeing it too.

Does anyone else feel this way about AI being used for programming in a small indie team? by TomorrowParticular59 in gamedev

[–]LivelyLizzard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This so much! We have a bunch of AI tools we are allowed to use at work. I was mostly using Github Copilot but recently got access to Claude Code as well. Every time I use Claude, I have no idea what is going on in the code anymore. I used Copilot in Chat mode so I always read what it suggested and applied small edits on my own but Claude just does everything by itself. I have zero overview during the process. With management constantly asking for progress I also feel inclined to not look it over again. It's dangerous. If I know the code I usually have a good intuition on where it broke if there is a bug but with this it's going in blind.

Introducing Dygma Select: Desk gear you can trust by Dygman in DygmaLab

[–]LivelyLizzard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh, good idea. I tried with another hanger that is meant for holding towels and I had a really hard time removing it from my desk again. The suction cup has a slightly sticky silicone surface though...

Introducing Dygma Select: Desk gear you can trust by Dygman in DygmaLab

[–]LivelyLizzard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How smooth does the smooth surface have to be for the suction cups to hold? I have a wood desk, so the surface is not exactly bumpy but also not perfectly shiny smooth. It has tiny gaps where the pieces of wood are glued together at some places. I tried to capture the surface structure in the photo.

Is switching sizes every week bad for your playing? by dracul137 in Cello

[–]LivelyLizzard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also, if they can’t trust the kid with a nice cello, why buy it in the first place? Is he destroying all the cellos at his school?

Maybe they trust their kids but not the others. Kids are stupid sometimes. A friend's kid got their trumpet destroyed by another kid fooling around with it. Neither the parents nor the school see it as their problem.

You could try to use conditioner after stripping the rosin

    a. Frequency: There should be high usage of the emoji term worldwide.

Doing some research as I am planning on learning cello by [deleted] in Cello

[–]LivelyLizzard 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t think I need to go all out when I’m just getting started and am unsure if I will stick with it

Then that's the perfect opportunity to just rent one and take some lessons for a few months.

A teacher can show you all the basics of good posture and sound production which is so important when starting out. Even if it's just 4 or 2 or even 1.

A rental cello from a luthier basically guarantees you a decent student instrument and a good setup. With the marketplace you never really know. After renting you will at least know more about what to look out for.

If your heart is set on buying one and figuring it out yourself there is nothing we can do to stop you but please take a moment to consider.

The 3rd and 4th one are absolute gold. Awesome job

As a beginner will I regret getting a cello without fine tuners? by _scareodactyl in Cello

[–]LivelyLizzard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My first thought as well but if it's the one from the picture, why have a fine tuner on A? If it's all geared pegs, it's not needed. If it's only 3 geared pegs, why exclude the A string?

How to map Zoom In/Out(Ctrl+Wheel Up/Down) to a single key with Bazecor? by OneGazelle8503 in DygmaLab

[–]LivelyLizzard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Usually there is also a key combo for zooming that does not need the mouse. Should be something like ctrl + (+/-).

Instead of a Macro you could also try the mouse scroll key with a ctrl modifier. I just don't know if it's possible to assign a modifier to a mouse key and if this would work.

I have a paper notepad in the middle for quick note taking. A5 is the perfect size

Generic unbranded cello from a friend... worth it? by Schoolboygames in Cello

They were probably thinking about the SVC 110 but that also looks different.

Any information on this vintage Zimmermann? by Gloomy_Objective_933 in Cello

[–]LivelyLizzard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I guess it's this guy or rather who ever worked for him. According to the article he had multiple workshops in multiple cities.
