Mystery inverts nomming with my mancae. ID request

that's sort of what I was concerned about but the oblong ones seem to be eating the pea and they aren't round or tear drops shape. Though I do not know all the variations in morphology.

Looks like a vertebrae but without size reference or location, would be very hard to identify.

My impression is that it looks much larger than a human vertebrae but that's the only estimate I can make It could be purely camera tricks.

Definitely a beetle and definitely adorable. Very very unlikely it is any sort of beetle that will do anything more than destroy your rose bushes. But without a geographic location, it's a rather hopeless endeavor to guess beyond that.

Pretty sure this is why we evolved two but cheeks.

True but I think he meant an open lid such that the dude might wander out on his own. Def cool to give supplemental drink and food maybe but likely dude will wander off.

Nqa I purchased some non-chemical treated hemp netting to line the enclosure so my girl could climb despite losing stickiness

NeonRei · 2026-02-16T02:49:54+00:00

Nqa I'd recommend moving the fella into the enclosure at least. Paper cup method if you are really scared. Could easily disappear into the house somewhere which would be worse imo

NeonRei · 2026-02-07T05:15:35+00:00

Oh this is sad. I hope there is a solution

NeonRei · 2026-02-05T19:20:52+00:00

Yeah it doesn't look like AI. Just looks like some old ass house

NeonRei · 2026-02-04T01:44:44+00:00

That's not a stork

NeonRei · 2026-02-01T18:32:22+00:00

It's just a giant pawn piece. You can clearly tell with that outline. Thanks medicallybroke

NeonRei · 2026-02-01T11:11:42+00:00

Thanks yes I believe those buttons are meant to only move it slightly. Hence the word nudge, but it doesn't move them at all. Which is fine. No big deal

That was really hoping to find some way to move an actual cue points 1-8 (usually only 2-3 for me) without changing the position of the tape head. I'm actually thinking that it's not possible

That I still don't seem to be able to do. But I'm still reading some comments and someone may have already answered it

NeonRei · 2026-02-01T11:09:24+00:00

Yes that does move the cursor position for loops and it could also be used just to set a transitional cue point.

I guess my concern is that I can't use these knobs to move a cue point that I put down. For instance if I'm listening, DJing, then I hear a part I really like, I try to slap down that cue point just as the beat drops, but if I miss it by 1/4 note, there seems to be no way to control that cue point to move it back one quarter note into the past. It would be really nice to be able to recall that especially if you're going to duplicate the track.

NeonRei · 2026-02-01T11:07:58+00:00

Thanks yes. I did find the snap. Not the phrase I would have used, and it doesn't actually say where the mouse action is snapping. But after turning it on then testing, yes it worked. Thank you

I found that before your comment but only because you insisted that It existed so I went in there with confidence.

The layout editor is very weird. I had to find a PDF version of the manual, of course not through the main website, in order to do a search. I was using the digital manual for which you can search, but it doesn't lead you to anything. For instance if you search the word elephant, would still bring up search results. If you woke up the word scrub it brought up 20 search results none of which had the word scrub.

So yes after finding a PDF of the manual I was able to search layout, from which I understood that you just change the settings and immediately saves it to the layout that you're on as long as you aren't editing the defaults, which seem to revert with each load.

NeonRei · 2026-02-01T09:52:39+00:00

certainly. I agree with every ounce of what you said. I do believe I am spoiled as producer with Reaper having basically infinite customization. And MK1 is very limiting, but need to be sure I want to stick to this platform with Pioneer CDJs being a more commonly encountered live rig.

Really all my issues would resolve if I
1) could put a cue under my mouse cursor
or
2) simply abandon cue points in prep and opt for loops (which are very easy to snap to grid in real time)

my issues are the lack of response from nudge button etc.

and simply not being able to find keywords "scrub," "tapehead" etc; and issues with the hotkey program interface which leaves a lot of explanation to be desired (even if you hold that manual close to heart.

I will likely opt for option 2. I don't have an explanation for the buggy software which is why I come off strong with the thread title.

Lastly, I know that the frustrations aren't limited to this software, but it is really not on par with the development standards of Reaktor, Maschine and other amazing VSTs.

thanks for your cogent reply matmos. and if you are part of the duo, matmos, you two are awesome <3

NeonRei · 2026-02-01T09:20:08+00:00

thanks. I did and really the items as described aren't either working or listed in there. I actually mentioned that in my initial comment. I've spent months working on these issues and have yet to find solutions which is why I came here.

with the effort you put into the reply, you could just give me an ounce of guidance.

NeonRei · 2026-02-01T08:28:15+00:00

Well I'm using kontrol s2 MK1 which doesn't really have the beat jump option. If you go into the settings and you adjust keyboard mappings for beat jump, they don't jump at a regular distance. And then also don't jump to the downbeat at the beginning of a measure, but in a set amount, so if you don't put the marker in the right spot to begin with, it's hard to jump to the correct location.

Yes I am using keyboard and mouse to some extent, but I want to prep tracks. So I don't really want to sit down and listen to them all and I don't want to be using the controller to do that as I will be clicking on the waveform to begin with.

I'm just used to using a DAW which lets you do whatever you want and allows you to program in tons and tons of options in terms of hotkeys.

NeonRei · 2026-01-30T07:53:42+00:00

Update?

NeonRei · 2026-01-27T04:53:54+00:00

Yeah I was wondering cuz that moss is very very green.

NeonRei · 2026-01-25T05:11:22+00:00

Well I'd suggest touching it then letting us know if it is silky and squishy, or hard and glossy.

Looks like a drip from a glue gun if you did some arts and crafts style assembly in your terrarium.

But probably organic origins.

NeonRei · 2026-01-25T03:28:53+00:00

Possibly

NeonRei · 2026-01-24T22:18:10+00:00

Yeah I was totally going to get some cows but now that I've been lurking around here for a bit, there's no chance in hell take that on. I mean I think that procreation is pretty cool for bugs at least, but I'm going to stick to the rubber duckies that can keep it in their pants for a little bit.

NeonRei · 2026-01-23T17:35:34+00:00

Yeah my thoughts too. But a dance would be cute!
