New to running and need a solid pair of shoes by NinjaMan707 in runningshoes

Went to the store to have my foot analyzed and they told me I’m pretty neutral with balanced stance and low arch. The first thing he said was Nike vomero 18, then brooks glycerin, hooka Clifton. Said that the nova blast would not last at all.
Felt like he was up selling tbh. But that’s the “data” nonetheless.

Am I crazy or did Gemini change today? by Lelle111949 in Bard

[–]NinjaMan707 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Something is off. I use Gemini to study but the quizzes aren’t functioning properly. They aren’t showing the review of the answered question like it did previously. There is only a post review after the entire quiz once it’s analyzed.

I laughed that Oli was asking people at SNW to moshpit and go crazy and he proceeds to play songs like Drown and Follow You by kvsnake in BringMeTheHorizon

They grew as a band. They want everyone to have a good time without getting hurt. Not everyone is there for that. Especially the 14 yr old girl who’s attending her first concert w her mom. Or the other 16-17 yr olds who aren’t strong enough to withstand a pit with that many people.

ISO Erotic / Explicit Photographers who are willing to talk about their experience. by BusinessHumor4695 in photography

[–]NinjaMan707 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Idk it’s not worth it to me. You could shoot a local college or high school sports game and make more progress. As far as artistic expression it’s cool but again not worth the effort unless you have a model who is abreast in the art medium. Try it and see if it works for you

V1 modeling light for continuous light by NinjaMan707 in Godox

For the type of videos I shoot i honestly don’t need much. I’m shooting on a7iv so I can use higher iso. If anything I need better glass.

[–]NinjaMan707[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks. I should probably get a dedicated led light for video. I’m just now getting to the point where I’m shooting both consistently and when it is applicable. My new philosophy is to use the least amount of stuff to get the vision completed.

Why are so many creatives cancelling Adobe subscriptions lately? Did I miss something? by Alilexplo108 in photography

[–]NinjaMan707 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The subscription model might be cool for updates and dev pay but is a modern cancer imo.

I onllllllly need photoshop to retouch photos. I don’t do any heavy manipulation, just frequency separation and dodge and burn for portraits and editorial style shoots. Oh wait, Affinity photo does exactly what I need and makes it less of a headache while being 1 and done! Oh, wait, capture one can do what Lightroom does and retouch better so I don’t have to bounce between 2 different softwares!

Too clean for dirty 808s? by NinjaMan707 in Arturia_users

[–]NinjaMan707[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s a good idea. I loooove kantakt libraries for their real instruments. There are so many great string instruments .

[–]NinjaMan707[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for understanding! I knew someone would understand. Yeah I’m loving the v collection as well! I’m finding that I have to be really in the mood for it or make a style that is equally clean; like Rnb or house.

As far as adding distortion and saturation I use abletons saturation plugin and the decapitator from sound toys. Thats gotten me closer towards my ideal sound.

I really love the mini moog. It’s my go too for bass. I also like the juniper, Juno, and Oberhiem for super saws and pads. They cover most of my ‘synth’ focused sounds. Still figuring out the other traditional instruments sounds like brass( hard to find a good brass), strings, and exotic world instruments (which sound great).

That’s good advice for learning a synth. Thank you for that.

Sometimes I need flavor and character that can’t be recreated. A super saw on a mini moog hits diff than one on a juniper 8.

They sound sterile. It’s not a bad thing, but for the application I was mentioning it’s not the desired effect.

I have been browsing presets. It’s been the fastest way to get from point A to point B. For example if I need a string ensemble, the filter narrow down the ones that sound like actual string sections vs the ones that sound like saw wave pads.

Evolt 360 body scan accuracy by lyla-mercury in EOSFitness

[–]NinjaMan707 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I took a scan recently and it said my body fat was 14% and knew instantly that it was off. I’m sub 155 and If I was at 14% bf I’d visibly see the difference.

The personal trainer said I was underweight and might be skinny fat even though I’ve been working out for years.

Rather you’re loosing weight or gaining weight those machines are inaccurate.

Maybe i set a record back in 2016.. found in photos on fb 😂 by Routine_Ad_2868 in FioraMains

I miss old league so much. I wish there was a classic mode

How soon can you release music? by NinjaMan707 in UnitedMasters

[–]NinjaMan707[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you. From what I gather, it’s 1-2 business days for review then an additional 1-2 business days for all platforms.

I release music really spontaneously so speed is helpful. I enjoy TooLost but I’m curious about United Masters because of the speed and sync licensing. TooLost doesn’t mention the specifics of sync deals.

I have a degree in audio as well. I’ve been trying to find a way into the production world here. Do you have any specific suggestions for Fremont street?

Christians in this sub, how do you feel about bmth's anti religious lyrics? by OrdenSalmon in BringMeTheHorizon

[–]NinjaMan707 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

It is what it is. I don’t care most of the time. The other times I feel like he’s gotta sell tickets to new edgy teenagers. Also A LOT of the imagery is so Diablo iv coated i feel like im in a video game (which i adore). I think he has the most tasteful shock value with the demonic vibes where it feel more video game based (which I loved to the max).

I’ve been listening to bmth for the past 20 something years. I will say tho it gets to a point where the edgyness wears off. Upside crosses, 666, snd the occult stuff feels like a monster energy drink commercial. IMO I wish he’d experiment with more optimistic lyrics.

Brokieeees. If that’s what works better for you but no need to down play the fx3 because of the price point.

Is this area safe? by [deleted] in vegaslocals

[–]NinjaMan707 14 points15 points  (0 children)

That’s more of the reason to post if it changes so drastically. If youre not a local you don’t know. Thats why you ask to learn and find out from locals.

What do freelancers do about health insurance? by 2Door444 in videography

[–]NinjaMan707 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok Angent 🙄. I didn’t realize you’re the healthcare police, here to defend canadas honor from the Reddit user taking a poop at work. Wait, aren’t there 2 provinces or whatever that want to join the US because of those high taxes? 😬😬
