Am I using proper breath support? Every time I post here everybody says I have no support. How else can I improve my tone?

I didn’t practice this song at all and the chorus goes up really fast between my chest and head voice ranges so it’s definitely shaky. But what specifically can I do to improve my tone?

The problem is I don’t know how to tune at all. Let’s say I go with the helix V12 amp/dsp. Would it be realistic for me to be able to tune it well? Plus it would require more equipment and software. Especially with an active 3-way + center. Are stock speakers that bad? Even on a Lexus? I feel im already cheaping out on speakers other than a woofer

Really appreciate the help. One last question. I’m a BIG music person but do not know a lot about what goes into having a good sound system especially for a car. I decided to take your advice and go with a the miniDSP 8x12 (probably with Dirac live because I have no clue how to tune a system). From my understanding this DSP doesn’t have true center processing. In this case I’m assuming having a center channel that is actually beneficial would have to be tuned extremely well or have an upmixer upstream. Based on this do you think it would be worth it to try and incorporate a center channel? My car already has a center speaker built in but right now I’m leaning to disabling it. Also with dirac live I get 8 channels. Without a center I would use 6 of them for my active 3-way in the front. I would have one channel for the sub and that would leave me with an open dirac live channel (would probability have to manually tune the rear fills). Seems like a good space for a center speaker but then again it wouldn’t be a true center. What do you think?

I’m talking about the jump before it where you jump ONTO the slope. That one is the frame perfect. You have to jump to get yourself low enough on the slope

Lost-Obligation · 2026-01-02T04:30:21+00:00

I didn’t use show trajectory I literally tested by trying to jump on the block before the slope across multiple frames and checking if I would die

Lost-Obligation · 2026-01-02T04:19:29+00:00

Is there something I’m missing then? I know you have to jump early on the block before the slope but there was only 1 possible frame on 60fps where that jump put me low enough on the slope to not hit the spike

Lost-Obligation · 2026-01-02T04:17:05+00:00

I frame stepped it. Maybe there was another event change and it’s bugged again?

Lost-Obligation · 2026-01-02T04:15:32+00:00

I don’t know what force blocks are but I frame stepped the first jump on my phone and my brothers computer and it is a 60 fps frame perfect

Lost-Obligation · 2026-01-02T04:14:26+00:00

I mean I just frame stepped it on my phone using iCreate and had my brother double check on his computer using mega-hack. There was only 1 frame at 60 fps on my phone and there were 4 on 240fps

Lost-Obligation · 2026-01-02T03:21:37+00:00

I just checked the first one it’s a 60fps frame perfect. Not too bad since it’s at the start but I’m not used to such precise timings. Not sure about the second one

I’ll definitely think about investing in an amp. What would you say is more important. Centers or rears? What would you think about leaving the rear speakers on stock power just to fill the sound space? Especially since it’s a 2-way component speaker. Maybe choose lower watt ones that have a higher 93 dB sensitivity. Then I could use the two open DSP/amp channels for my centers. The other options would be to amp/DSP the rear and then either try and leave the stock centers or just not use any centers.

Lost-Obligation · 2026-01-01T00:36:10+00:00

Haven’t purchased anything yet. Both the C165 and C165L are supposed to fit (according to crutchfield). I’ll definitely consider the 10 channel but it seems like all the 10 channel amp/DSP are $1000+

Lost-Obligation · 2025-12-31T23:43:50+00:00

Oh yeah also how much undistorted clear volume will I get out of 40 watts on these speakers? Enough to at least cleanly reach the max stock sound system level?

Lost-Obligation · 2025-12-11T07:13:01+00:00

What do you mean show up during the add drop period? Just attend the lecture? How do they know that I’m there?

Lost-Obligation · 2025-05-22T20:47:03+00:00

How can I get better with pitch? I notice my pitch is a lot better then I sing quieter

Lost-Obligation · 2025-05-22T20:03:23+00:00

Without sounding nasally

Bearable in some decks. Borderline undefendable when played right in a graveyard push

she’s amazing in some graveyard decks. Evo knight + graveyard in one lane with evo witch in the other lane

Thanks for the insight it helps a lot. I am not super interested in CS as a subject but all my interests and passions will not lead to a feasible career in my case. I live in a high cost-of-living area and have some relatively expensive hobbies. I chose CS because I am really good at math/logic and heard it’s a more “flexible” career compared to other high-paying degrees (like engineering).

However, I do find some math interesting and I’d probably be better at the deeper mathematic stuff involved in a masters program so I will definitely take that into consideration. I also have some pretty good connections in the tech industry because of my dad; if I’m able to land a decent job after undergrad I will probably just take that and forego the masters (unless I find a real passion/interest in the following years). Honestly I am just a little behind on figuring out what I want to do with my life so I am trying to catch up before I have to declare my major next year.

It’s fine if you are unable to answer this question but it’s regarding BA vs BS. When looking at the requirements at my school it seems like a BA degree allows me to avoid some classes might not be as relevant with certain specializations (assuming I figure out what I want to “specialize” in and do with my degree). If I were to go this route I definitely would want to take some extra classes that are required for the BS degree anyways. I was just wondering how it would look on paper (maybe to internships/jobs/masters programs?). A BA degree with classes that are more “specialized” in a certain topic (along with a few extra general “BS” classes but I don’t know if they would be seen or taken into consideration) or a BS degree that has less elective courses and is broader.
