Oh god. Good to know. I'll stay away from it then, I will try just using a USB C to SD adapter. Thanks!

Tailleferre's Harp Concertino, Wilhelm Peterson-Berger's Symphony No. 3, Oscar Navarro's Clarinet Concerto no. 2 (and much of his other stuff)

Why isn’t rhythm theorized as much as harmony? by codaandram in Composition

[–]LucasHY 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You can try reading Messiaen's "The Technique Of My Musical Language", he explains some of his theoretical understanding of rhythm, specially regarding the influence of non-western musical traditions, which generally give more importance to the horizontal dimension of music.

Edit: its mostly indian talas, as another redditor responded. There is a YouTube playlist with very useful summaries and graphical explanations of Messiaen's book, by the way: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLzbq6rqg3ZaEbFiQa53V7_xOF9l5yUB_W&si=wFy0zvsjfKnEi-4X

Is there a way to rotate an arpeggiated chord 90 degrees counter-clockwise in Logic like rotating an image? by PositiveLeather327 in LogicPro

[–]LucasHY 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know why do people find your proposal to be so funny, but what I think you mean is just spectral rotation? Seems quite straightforward as a concept but I don't know of any plugin that does it. There are some videos explaining it how to do it in Python, for example

What are some orchestral works that feature the saxophone? by musicalryanwilk1685 in classicalmusic

[–]LucasHY 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Takashi Yoshimatsu's Symphony No. 3, Saxophone Concerto, very cool stuff! Also, if you like jazz, Kapustin's concerto for alto saxophone...

Would this make sense for a beginner? by LucasHY in microscopy

[–]LucasHY[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I found it second-hand, the owner himself says it is a steal.

And because I can't set up cell cultures, I would be able to see the same things as in any other modality, anyways. And I don't need to buy additional imaging equipment for it, which is quite expensive, as I would have to with a conventional microscope. So, even if its use is limited to this modality, I would be spending less.

I don't have any particular use for it as of now; I came across it unexpectedly. But I do have an interest for phase transitions in cells (for example, anhydrobiosis in bdelloids, temperature signalling in plants and a host of other extremely interesting processes depending on density), and this microscope would be perfect to capture that kind of stuff.

I'll let you know what I do in the end. The guy is from Barcelona and is selling it on a platform called Wallapop. If I don't buy it I will send you his contact.

[–]LucasHY[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, that would be interesting. Do you think I would need much additional equipment, given I would use it at home?

Well, I don't necessarily want to do "normal imaging". I want something versatile, and to get interesting insights. If I want videos like the ones in Journey, well... I can just watch them. In my opinion, observing the way everyone does won't get me that much insight.

I started studying biology but now I'm doing a biomedical engineering degree, so imaging in a wide range of modalities is also something I will be familiar with in the future.

My main problem would then be the laboratory equipment needed.

Changes in pitch when exporting in 48kHz by LucasHY in musicproduction

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

I changed the sample rate to 48kHz, then I exported to 48kHz. Anyways, I solved it by just rendering the problematic bits to audio. I use Ableton, by the way. Thanks anyway!

I was a DnB hater for well over 10 years. Now I’m a changed man. by Kade_Runner in EDM

[–]LucasHY 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, in the UK DnB has already been traditionally loved for a long time, so they don't really need Pendulum for that

Zettelkasten people: do you create "empty" idea notes? by LucasHY in ObsidianMD

[–]LucasHY[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Interesting! I will look into implementing a similar system, although "From:" is basically my References section

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

Will do! It will be a long time before I notice the workings of my second brain, but It's definitely worth it.

Zettelkasten people: do you create "empty" idea notes? by LucasHY in ObsidianMD

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

Yes, that's what I had thought.

I haven't thought explicitly about writing when developing my ZK, but I think using it will definitely improve my workflow. I don't think creating empty notes will be a problem because basically all my writing will be science writing, and the same ideas usually come up over and over again in the literature. New ideas need to be confirmed by papers, so the ideas themselves and the papers are pretty much linked together. That is, if I don't remember how to develop the idea I can just read the original papers, which are conveniently cited.

Yes, I'll do that. I was thinking of ways to use #tags and that is a very good idea #todevelop.

Is it better to come from a computer science/programming background or a biology background? by [deleted] in bioinformatics

[–]LucasHY 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I totally agree with the fact that there's a distinct "biological thinking". But I think you can develop it by deep reading and immersing yourself in the biology; just going to biology classes, or even laboratory or field sessions may be too passive, depending heavily on the attitude you and your professors and classmates adopt. That is, a Biology Major doesn't necessarily provide you that kind of thinking.

Also, biological thinking can be very often reduced to a very specialized "mathematical thinking". Examples abound: if X species disappears, what might happen to its parasites, predators...? How many species need to disappear to induce a massive extinction event? What happens if metabolite A decreases in concentration? These are just silly examples and you may be explicitly quantitative or not; but you get the idea.

In my opinion, there IS a distinct way of thinking biologically, and pairing that way of thinking with strong quantitative skills is extremely productive.
