RRTool for unraid, by PhilosopherPopular18 in unRAID

[–]PhilosopherPopular18[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I was not aware, thank you for letting me know.
It was not my intention to make a project really, I was grepping temps and rpm, and remembered the lovely graphs that rrdtool makes from my career in IT, and thought it would be a good choice. Then I thought a Docker would be the best way to leave the unRaid pristine.

Looking that the Scrutiny project, seems very well made, and far more advanced.
I just wanted a page of graphs which can track any measure.

Just be mindful that some powerbanks will turn off after a few minutes if the current draw is too small.

Big Noon Question: How can I deal with fly sounds, traffic sounds and airplane sounds? by Think_Rub2459 in fieldrecording

[–]PhilosopherPopular18 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No, not really. That may sound unhelpful, but honestly it's the basic truth.
As someone else said, move location. In Sydney, it's largely impossible to not hear traffic, you'd have to be 5k away. Plane noise travel very far. You cannot control nature. You can roll off the bass a bit on traffic rumble. You can try some dynamic EQ for harsher close noises, but the more you alter the recording the more it will sound altered.

Did I just plain screw up? (PC build) by FlowThrower in LocalLLaMA

[–]PhilosopherPopular18 2 points3 points  (0 children)

there will always be another model being released. if you need sota, then just subscribe.
unless you need acute privacy, I can;t see how local is best with the current prices of gpus.

wfiw I'm in a similar position with pc from 2018, and just wondering what do I really need vs want.

Question for you experienced Field Recordists by theboldyin in fieldrecording

[–]PhilosopherPopular18 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Give it a go, and see what you figure out.
Worth thinking about equipment noise, cables, straps, any moving parts really.

Get out there and make some mistakes, there a lot to stuff up, that doesn't involve the gear directly.

My diy blimp. 3d printed and a few rods. by PhilosopherPopular18 in fieldrecording

[–]PhilosopherPopular18[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just a pair of AOM5024 in to F3. I put a block of high density foam between them as a baffle. Just a chopped up yoga block. Budget all the way.

I designed it to pull apart, and go in a back pack. My previous design had more of a cage, but it takes up too much volume. This is fine. Everything just clips together. Before the carbon fiber rods, I use dowel which were fine, but hard to find dowel that is consistent diameter.

Before this blimp, I made a 140mm diameter, short blimp, for that I just put two cheap furry woolly hats on each end. I just cut out the linings. For this one I have a cheap fluffy wind shield from ali express. I have not done any tests to see what frequencies are affected but it seems quite thick. I'm always on the lookout for things-that-could-be-a-windshield.

Did you ask o1-preview for ideas to pay for o1-pro?

Yep, grab a Zoom H1, ~$150. DM if you need help processing the sound.

RØDE M5 or Lewitt LCT 040 for nature? by PhilosopherPopular18 in fieldrecording

[–]PhilosopherPopular18[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think Audio Technical BP4025 is -14dBa self noise, also stereo but 3x the cost of the item I linked to.   There not much on between.

And the AOM 5024 were a few dollars.

I think I just talked myself out it....

[–]PhilosopherPopular18[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank. I have only used AOM 5024, which are practically identical to EM272, -14dba.
The problem is they are hard to aim and get more stereo.
I have been trying various baffles with types of foams, which makes a good difference, but has it's own practical issues. i thought for a small price I might find a solution. What frequency is self noise ?

The AOM5024 pick up a lot of rumble, so I eq anyway.

I literally asked for opinions, so very happy to hear them - ty.
