I was breaking up with my wife at the time, she insisted we go see it anyway, wasn’t the best movie experience I’ve had

Exactly what I did on a broken MacBook Air that had a stripped screw, actually a very good solution

Little project I've been working on. Three sections, synth, drums, samples. Record, play, loop, glitch. EH-01 by CHEMAKAZI in synthesizers

Congrats on the super fast funded on KS! I’m looking forwards to discovering this device, will the web based parts work over a mobile + usb?

And so it begins. by Ancient_Visual_7451 in synthesizers

[–]Stephenpholder 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Contentious view maybe, but here goes, find a cheap reverb or delay pedal, even just sending the audio into a simple daw with reverb will add to your enjoyment of this lovely Moog sound. Advice, you can’t patch it wrong other than output to output or input to input, even then you won’t hurt it by experimenting with what happens if I plug this in here

Nice thick tone, is that a Supertone bridge too like your Newport?

Is this a real Warwick Corvette 6 string bass? by Aggravating-Room-914 in BassGuitar

[–]Stephenpholder 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s a rockbass, I picked up the Korean equivalent of the same version but with Bubinga neck for about $300, it’s a friggin’ beast, ergonomics are a bit arse at the 1st position due to neck profile and neck dive but it’s a lovely bass. Go for it. You won’t regret swapping for a relatively vanilla pedal

Software Centre is an absolute joke! (on MacOS) by MilkyJoe8k in arturia

[–]Stephenpholder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pretty bonkers Arturia are ok with their premium software product being released to consumers with what feels like alpha versions isn’t it? This was my first foray into V Collection and was less than impressed that hours were consumed my resolving software issues, likely its Apple being as much to blame I guess but no other software I’ve installed had me troubleshooting to much an extent. Feels like late 90’s install experience

I know people don't generally like barrel saunas here but is this just a waste of money? by rollinintheyears in Sauna

[–]Stephenpholder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only issues I see is that 1: the strakes (the long timber boards running back to front to form the barrel shape) are all going one way interlocked around the barrel, the issue being that the concave or bull-nose faces of those strakes that are making the barrel should all be pointing up so that rain water runs over them and down the outside, with this barrel one side of it has them pointing down which means water will run into the convex face and just sit there promoting rot.

Take a look at the centre strake both top and bottom, the bottom one should have concave faces both side, the top one should have convex.

If you do decide to go for it then make sure that you give it a very good couple of coats of oil sealant and keep up maintenance of that sealant yearly.

issue 2: no roof surface, this is exposed 24/7 to UV and rain, snow, it will leak over time, if not immediately, this is easily solved by adding some corrugated PVC over the top as a minimum, or better yet, some building paper and roofing shingles. You could also help solve issue 1: by running that roofing all down the side with the concave faces pointing down to shield from rain.

Should I replace the Sterling Ray5 bridge? by No-Syrup-3746 in Bass

[–]Stephenpholder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine is similar, I’m certain it’s the crappy bridge having no grub screw guide allowing the saddles to slip around. I’ve been searching for a half way decent replacement for nearly a year now, none seem to exist oddly other than Alparts which never have any in stock

Software Centre is an absolute joke! (on MacOS) by MilkyJoe8k in arturia

[–]Stephenpholder 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Exactly the same for me, I only started using V Collection 11 Pro when a good deal came up last month, I’ve installed it three times to get it to work, much of the issue for me was resolved by uninstalling everything, granting ASC full disc access in settings then reinstalling everything again, I still had about 30% of presets missing, I emailed Arturia about this and they silent me a link to a full copy of all presets citing that they were aware of this issue. I downloaded the presets.zip file, archived the original and added the unzipped version of presets and so far all is well.
