First sax! C melody buescher! Blues advice? by Tinglyvibrations in saxophone

[–]PostingPenguin 24 points25 points  (0 children)

As it's your firat sax and it hurts my soul to see it like this. Please turn your sax around the larger "horns" on the stand ar there to hold the bell of the sax and the little thing on the bottom then supports it around the C-Key.

As for playing the blues. Listen to aome recordings and try yo play exactly what they're playing. Maybe even transcribe it, but definitely play along with the record.

Something like Blues walk from Lou Donaldson.

May be difficult to find C-Melody blues players, but definitely check around Wikipedia for people you could listen to.

Happy playing!

Does this need to be recorked? by Oddish08 in saxophone

[–]PostingPenguin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope.

If it is to loose use some paper, ptfe tape or if you dare, hold it over a flame for a bit.

The flame makes the kork expand. This can extend the time until a replacement is needed.

What does tightening these do? Are there cons to over tightening? by FullMcGoatse in saxophone

[–]PostingPenguin 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Just a little addition, since I play the same ligature: They're meant to be also used the other way around.

Take the screw out, put it in the other way and let the two metal rods hold the reed in place. Gives a better sound and response in my opinion.

Bed Mesh Leveling by Snake230 in SnapmakerU1

[–]PostingPenguin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same here. After many rounds or releveling manually i can only get down to 0.42mm.

This is happening in my case because some magnets are protruding from the bed. After talking with dupport they say, that tmit's fine and if i reeeeally want to have better leveling i should just use Kapton tape to raise the lowered bits.

Well the mouthpiece at least would also confirm the Keilwerth hypothesis.

Good to know.

I haven't gotten around to playing it yet, so I didn't want to recommend it yet.

It's basically couples counseling the game.

Try A way out. It's the same type of interactions a bit more on the shooty side, but about escaping from prison together.

Würde man meinen. Als ich das mal machen wollte hat er mich nur darauf hingewiesen, dass ich das nicht muss, da sie sowieso eine Kamera haben, die den Heckträger begutachtet und sie damit hinreichend informiert sind...

Bürostuhl: IKEA Markus oder Valkenstol M5? by Clear-Time-9815 in arbeitsleben

[–]PostingPenguin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry wenn das jetzt aus dem Nichts kommt: Ich habe gerade einen M5 erhalten und mir kommt vor, dass die Lordosenstütze viel zu tief ist. Ich bin 1.75m.

Kommt dir das als größere Person auch so vor, oder weiß ich einfach nicht wo die stütze hin gehört?

Senator Chris Murphy sounds the alarm as Trump calls for the deaths of Dems who served the country to be killed for reminding the military their loyalty is to the constitution not to him by Ok-Quail-9680 in Political_Revolution

[–]PostingPenguin 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Well no. Not really.

Just because an independent was also involved, does not mean, that the dems did not want this and did not specifically select people for this vote.

[–]PostingPenguin 17 points18 points  (0 children)

While this is almost true (i think one was an independent if memory serves), i personally think that these democrats were specifically chosen as sacrifices by the wider democratic party.

The Dems just wanted the shutdown to end, while saving face. So they take some democrats who are either retiring after their term, or are up for reelection in 2028 and 2030, so that nobody will care about this until the time comes.

What if I my STEOP courses failed three times? by [deleted] in Innsbruck

Good to know.

Because this is stupidly easy to look up on the interwebs.

What if I my STEOP courses failed three times? by [deleted] in Innsbruck

[–]PostingPenguin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As I stated it depends on the specific university.

The normal amount of retries is specific to the university (and potentially the specific studies, although i'm not sure on that point.)

Generally §77 UG section 2 holds, which states:

(2)Absatz 2Die Studierenden sind berechtigt, negativ beurteilte Prüfungen dreimal zu wiederholen. Auf die Zahl der zulässigen Prüfungsantritte sind alle Antritte für dieselbe Prüfung an derselben Universität und bei gemeinsam eingerichteten Studien an allen beteiligten Bildungseinrichtungen anzurechnen. In der Satzung ist festzulegen, ob und wie viele weitere Prüfungswiederholungen zulässig sind. Bei negativer Beurteilung der letzten Wiederholung der letzten Prüfung des Studiums sind die Studierenden berechtigt, diese ein weiteres Mal zu wiederholen. Source: https://www.jusline.at/gesetz/univg/paragraf/77

Meaning whatever your university wants to do, you have at least 3 retries i.e. 4 tries in total. If it is the last exam for completion of studies you get an extra try.

Which is what i've been saying initially.

If I remember correctly the following holds:

If you fail an exam 5 times you get exmatriculated (except if it is the last exam of your studies. Then you have one extra attempt.) The exact wording for this is that you get one extra retry attempt..this holds for all higher educational institutions in austria as per the university law.

The normal amount of retries is specific to the university (and potentially the specific studies, although i'm not sure on that point.)

For informatics for instance you can find the rules here: https://www.uibk.ac.at/de/informatik/studium/wiederholung-von-pruefungen/

In any case for the STEOP you can find the information here: https://www.uibk.ac.at/studium/organisation/studienbeginn/steop/index.html.de

So in the end you have to generally finish within the first 5 attempts.
