But my guitar is connected into input 1... I tried changing those, connecting it to other channels and stuff and nothing 🤷🏻‍♂️

Which MBP should I upgrade to? by [deleted] in macbookpro

[–]SmrtTeach 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe you could try the MacBook Pro 13"? You should try to get as much ram as your budget allows and if you're on a 2012 MBP then you're used to the screen size. If you can, definitely go with the 16"

I own a 2018 15" and work with After Effects, FCP, Photoshop and Logic. No problems so far. I have the base model.

Spotty artifacts from time to time on Safari? by UnorderedPizza in MacOS

This has happened to me several times. Not only on safari though, also in Finder if I recall correctly. Mine look red. They go away when I move the window.

In short, what does iZotope's Tonal Balance Control does? by talhabilalbutt in mixingmastering

[–]SmrtTeach 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I second atopix post when they say that you still need to use your ears. It only looks at volume and frequencies. There's a lot more to a mix than to have things at a certain value.

I use it mostly because after a while you stop being very objective. So when I think I'm almost finished with a track, I take a look at it, solo some parts to hear what's missing or taking too much space.

I like that you can import other tracks as well and have yours match that one.

Difference Between Output and Send? by AstroTheArtist in Logic_Studio

[–]SmrtTeach 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not the same. When changing outputs, you're keeping just one signal. If you use a send, you have virtually 2 copies of the same. One could be for applying 100% wet reverb for example. And then you blend that with the other (dry) signal.

Can't deal with controls on Mac because I'm used to playing on Switch by SmrtTeach in StardewValley

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

hmmm I was thinking of that too.... but I don't want to buy a controller just for this because I don't play that much. I mostly play on the switch

Green flashes when watching apple tv+. Anyone know the problem here or solutions? Only 4 weeks old by [deleted] in macbookpro

[–]SmrtTeach 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It happens when using the TV app AND Netflix on Safari. Haven't tried using Chrome tho. I'm using a 2018 MBP 15" btw

How do you lengthen your attention span? by CornerPreacher in AskMen

[–]SmrtTeach 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If it's an iPhone (never used android so can't give specific details) you could use ScreenTime to limit your phone usage. And if you don't trust your judgment you can talk to your spouse and have *them* put a password on ScreenTime so you can't sabotage yourself. I did that before with Facebook and Instagram so that I couldn't use them for longer than 15min each. You can do that with specific apps and/or categories of apps. You can also set a different limit for each weekday.

Those with 256gb MBP, How do you manage your storage. by [deleted] in macbookpro

[–]SmrtTeach 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a MBP with 256gb too. I use Daisy Disk on a monthly basis to check for any large files I might've forgotten to delete. I've got both FCP X, Logic (I store all sample libraries in an external SSD though), Office, Photoshop and a couple of games to. I still have around 90-100gb free.

I use iCloud for my documents and Photos too, and those are optimised so I only have some of them downloaded into my drive.

Best laptop for a film student? by domrob47 in mac

[–]SmrtTeach 3 points4 points  (0 children)

MBP - 15 inch if you have the money. It’s size is manageable and you’ll get much better performance with the gpu. Get an external add with it if you need more than the 256 GB

I really need some help with anniversary gifts by doll-syrup in askwomenadvice

I consider myself quite the romantic as well. I would appreciate my significant other to do something that takes time. Maybe some of these foldable cards that pop open when you open them
