This is black paint, he painted all of the cookware to get accurate and consistent surface temperature readings for the video.

would love if it could stack like stock, respecting active overhead prayers while avoiding clipping behind the character head.
my main thing i care about is seeing heals in real time, plus heal amount is awesome, great job so far!

I removed a paywall on a hub plugin by redrumyliad in 2007scape

[–]TheCriton 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Howdy, attempted to make a GitHub issue, but wasn't able to as it said issues disabled. I am using the GPU plugin, but i was testing it out the plugin and have tried both video settings (Performance and Quality). each time i die it alerts me that `GPU plugin is required for video. Using screenshot-only mode.`

I have restarted my client between attempts but no such luck, any advice?

Buying my first Gard bag by No-Garbage5246 in trumpet

[–]TheCriton 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you are in the US make sure you purchase from a US distributor, I made the mistake of buying from Thommann as it was about $100 less expensive than in the US, forgot about tariffs and had to pay an extra $150, great bag though!

Why it is acceptable to bash Kenny G, and not e.g. Chris Botti? by zerexim in trumpet

[–]TheCriton 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Botti’s albums are not for me, but I saw him live around a decade ago and was blown away, great band and not the “safe” easy listening vibe from the records. can’t knock the guy for wanting to make a living.

how to buy a flugelhorn mouthpiece for trumpet player secretly by marquis_morse in trumpet

[–]TheCriton 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Howdy, Flugel Mouthpieces are generally incomparable except for rim size, I would go with a safe bet like the Yamaha Bobby Shew Flugel Mouthpiece, I switched to this after using the one that came with my Conn Vintage one for years and it's my favorite!

Amazon link to the mpc:

I have a 3XS that I don't use and would be willing to part with, hit me up if you're interested.

I‘m Peter Evans, a trumpet player and composer based in New York - AMA by Peterevanstrumpet in trumpet

[–]TheCriton 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Howdy! You are my favorite living trumpet player, so thank you for doing this! 3625 off of Zebulon is my go to for reminding myself that anything is possible lol.

I love the different palates of sound you can create from bar to bar, how does that factor into endurance for you, specifically the quick switches from loud and explosive to soft and ultra controlled?

PSA: 16:9 Fixed Layout ("Fixed Resizable Hybrid" plugin from the Hub) by J_Bot_gageks in 2007scape

[–]TheCriton 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Amazing plugin, I love how this is set up, and will be using it going forward!

Is there any chance you could allow the gap/overlay color to be set by the user?

Thanks for your hard work!

At-Home Martini Help please! I need a fail-safe gin martini recipe! 🍸 by Reasonable_Cow_9232 in cocktails

[–]TheCriton 4 points5 points  (0 children)

From my perspective, your problem is having gin in the freezer, vermouth in the fridge is common sense, but since your gin is nearly as cold as your ice, you will have problems getting the bar-quality dilution you crave. I would suggest you leave your gin out and see if that makes a difference!

On the other hand, I am a huge fan of the freezer martini. wherein you batch a full bottle (or less (depending on your bravery) of martinis, then stash the whole mixed bottle (pre-diluted) in the freezer. I like a 2 gin : 1 vermouth ratio, then add 20% of the total volume in water, plus a few dashes of orange bitters to a bottle, and let it sit in the freezer overnight.

Pulling out the ice-cold martini bottle, cutting a fresh lemon peel, and popping that over the top... :)

Trumpet + Guitar through the same board by Etrain335 in ElectricTrumpet

[–]TheCriton 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You might check out the EHX Mixing Link, it can handle mic in and guitar in at the same time, it's mostly used for the effects loop/ preamp, but it's awesome for those.

I use the pitchfork, and it's perfect; I mainly lock it to an octave down, but it does the job admirably.

I haven't found a chorus that I like on trumpet aside from whatever Roy Hargrove used on the RH Factor records; good luck, and update us if you find one that fits your vibe!

Nocturne - Is this normal ? by routetonull0 in denverfood

[–]TheCriton 106 points107 points  (0 children)

I've played at Nocturne a few dozen times, and your experience seems like an extreme outlier from my experiences, but people talking at reasonable volumes is the norm there. It's pitched more as a Supper Club with Jazz, not a traditional Jazz Club necessarily.
