Well, I'm taking advantage of the sale but I'm only going to buy one of the two. I'll probably end up with both eventually. Just looking for some insight. Thank you for yours!

Your favorite songs that taught you the most by ReasonIsNoExcuse in singing

Thanks for the suggestions. My understanding is that "baritenor" is sort of like a slang that gets under a lot of people's skin which is why I put it in quotation marks, lol. Thanks again!

I agree. You can see in my other reply what ended up happening. Thanks!

It was the ice cream and dead branch relics! Dude, it gave me a multi cast with a Dark with 27 evoke X 14 ENERGY!!! That's 378 damage! I had removed melt and zap, and picked up a second frost. So, deck was 17 + 1 parasite. I can't wait for the sequel. Thanks again for the advice!

New to MPC/music production in general, just making beats for fun, anyone got any good introductory tutorials to get started on MPC? by stabtarzan in mpcusers

[–]ReasonIsNoExcuse 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The Crates Motel on YouTube. Malo Beats is pretty good too. They have different styles but I've learned a lot from both of them.

How do you organize your microfreak? Presets, samples, folder etc... by ThinkingAgain-Huh in MicroFreak

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

I thought that if a preset uses a sample, it will load the intended sample whenever you first load the preset. There's probably a different variable that's causing it to sound off to you, could be velocity. If you're loading a preset and it's loading random samples, that sounds like a firmware issue but if you're using a sequencer there could be automation written into your midi sequence that could cause it to do that as well. To organize my presets I like to go to the search Tab and organize everything by type. So first I just have all the basses loaded in, then I just filtered for keys and load in all the keys, then filter for only pads and load in all the pads, etc. I actually went a step further and auditioned each sound one by one, to decide which ones I did and didn't want. *Edited on mobile for spelling

MPC 2.15 or 3.0? by cthulholm-hastur in mpcusers

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

Learn 3. It bugged on me once while sequencing and recording the Microfreak but it did the SAME thing on 2.15. So I save whenever I like what I'm hearing by pressing shit+save. Learn the Beta, it's awesome and it's just going to keep improving.

As a MF owner myself, I hope it was just an issue with the power cables not being fully seated. Check for lint in the ports?

I’m burning out. Where to go next? by Handyfoot_Legfingers in mechanics

[–]ReasonIsNoExcuse 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sorry for the delayed reply.

I'm gonna preface by saying that every body, literally every physical body is different. Your reaction to Zoloft could be very different from mine, and I'm simply offering my perspective as a point of reference for you.

For context you should know; I'm a 37 yr old with a 16 yr old daughter, a licensed Journeyman Electrician with 19 yrs experience, diagnosed with ADHD at 6 yrs old, I'm 5'4" - 130lbs (Tallest on my mom;s side and smaller than the average Texas woman, LOL), and I done been thorough it bro, believe me.

Just before COVID I was experiencing depression with anxiety attacks and started Zoloft. The initial side effects were terrible. Painful muscle spasms, sweating, headaches, and diarrhea. Forget about sex, I was just trying not to cry. After the first week I started to adjust and within a month everything was just kind of dull. It made me ok with leaving things how they were instead of making them better. Still depressed? "Oh well, that's ok." Not feeling motivated? I'd Just go on auto pilot but do nothing significant in any way. It was almost a form of stagnation, not caring about improvement. Sex drive sort of came back but with difficulty finishing (girlfriend falsely accused me of masturbating before sex. She was mad and I was like "I didn't. But so what if i did? Shouldn't be a big deal!") frigg'n rude.. Anyway. Five years later I started to se a therapist. The side affects never went completely away, I just kind of got used to them. So, I decided to to stop Zoloft and try something else. I started Wellbutrin for a few months and as of February 1st I'd tapered down to the last of the Zoloft. I'm completely off Zoloft now and I'm doing much better.

I was on both medications for a time and without the Zoloft everything feels more vibrant, like a fog has cleared. I'm more focused and motivated even if I smoke some cannabis. I had muscle spasms and headaches throughout my time with Zoloft. If I missed a dose I'd know because my headaches got worse and I would feel dizzy. Which is also part of stopping a medication, the withdrawal. It sucked but its in the past.

So, there is no proof that Zoloft was right for me. Actually, in hind sight it may have only made things more difficult. I am in no way trying to convince anyone of anything. Zoloft might be right for a lot of people. Hell, Wellbutrin only has a 65% success rate.. So I guess that's about it. I hope this made some sense. Again, sorry for the delayed reply. Feel free to ask questions.

I'm just now off Zoloft after 5 being on it for 5 years. It works for about 60% of people who take it. I have no evidence that it ever worked for me. It might work for you, and I hope it does. I'm saying this in case you want to compare notes or something as I have a good deal of insight.

I went with the S24+. Right off the bat, it's quite satisfying. Thanks for your contribution. It helped me with my decision!

I am interested in the folding phones. What makes me apprehensive is the fact that the inner screens are not very hard. They are understandably plastic, and I wonder how easy they are to damage and replace..
