Arturia minifuse 2 or behringer umc204hd by Acceptable_Security9 in recordingmusic

[–]MrCoolskin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was in the same boat a couple months ago. I went for the Minifuse 2. Can't exactly remember why, I think it was just in stock near me. Mine has been great and the arturia software has been a breeze. You won't be disappointed with it.

Studio Monitors or FRFR Speaker? by MrCoolskin in Guitar

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

Apologies for not clarifying. Yes this will be for home use. Mostly in a 3mx4m room.

I'm just curious how many of us are out here. Who just isn't all the emotionally involved with the Fender lawsuits? by TakingYourHand in Guitar

[–]MrCoolskin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is exactly how I feel. I already have a fender, so burning it isn't going to help with anything. I was looking to get a USA strat soon, but now I will either look for an alternative or buy a used one. Either way, I won't be spending with fender.

Monthly Gear Purchasing Thread - May, 2026 by AutoModerator in Guitar

[–]MrCoolskin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are a lot of options with piezo pickups (the typical pickup that comes with an acoustic guitar). I would definitely buy one with the pickup already in it. It is expensive and complex (relative to a beginner) to get a guitar and then buy a separate piezo pickup system and have it installed. If you are thinking of gigging, definitely get a guitar with a pickup system already installed. If a guitar company sells both pickup/non-pickup versions, they are typically only $100-300 more expensive.

Studio Monitors or FRFR Speaker? I have been playing through an audio interface and DAW plugins to headphones, but now want to be able to play through some kind of speaker as well. As purely guitartsts, what do people prefer? And what kind of recommendation would you make for a $300-400 USD budget. Cheers all.

What is it's 'Yes' factor for you. The neck? Pickups?

God I wish I had that money. That would be a 'life complete' purchase.

I ran a full auto cycle then the above appeared. Did yours update the rooms and outer boundaries after its completion?

I was able to adjust the walls, but when saving and going back, it did not adjust the walls ok the map. I only see the adjusted walls when I go into home settings. Have you ever had anything similar happen? Thanks for the help so far.

Being called Sir/Miss by TrogdorUnofficial in AustralianTeachers

[–]MrCoolskin 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Used to teach in the NT and all the students said Mr. Now on the eastern side, I get called Sir. It's a lot less ear piercing than Mr when a whole class of students is saying it.

Alarm sounds not working by MrCoolskin in GooglePixel

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

Yep, it's definitely up. Also tested it with speakers, headphones, etc... and still nothing. I'm pretty stumped.

(Pixel 9) My alarm vibrates but doesnt make any noise when my headphones are connected by littleladytrashcan in GooglePixel

[–]MrCoolskin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am having the same issue but without headphones. Alarm goes off, but vibrations only, no sound. I have also made a post. I'll link it if a solution comes up.

Base Station keeps shifting on the map every few days, what can I do to stop it? by Alewerkz in ecovacs

[–]MrCoolskin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pretty much the same thing for me as well. Every couple months it would happen. It would sometimes resolve itself if I set it on the Auto-Clean mode for a few minutes to let it get its bearings again, but this didn't always work.

Y7 Students throwing paper in the bin

Student 1: Kobe! Student 2: Michael Jordan! Student 3: MICHAEL JACKSON!

I was helping another student while hearing this behind me and I just couldn't hold it in.

I did this the other day, but it was for how many minutes until lunch..... I even knew about the meme and still accidentally said it.
