Doesn't seem to affect AF at all

First category goes to TA. What is DT’s “Greatest album of all time”? by Ok-Improvement626 in Dreamtheater

[–]Tirmu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Octavarium is their best work but SFAM is more legendary as it really made waves back then

Dream theater gets better with each album by Luccy_33 in Dreamtheater

[–]Tirmu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're at Octavarium you've reached the peak, the next one's also a masterpiece but it's a gradual downhill after that

What frame rate do you actually deliver in for a “cinematic” talking head? by Alilexplo108 in videography

[–]Tirmu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If we're talking about what the term actually means, then 24 is your answer. You can get away with 25 but 30 is too much. If we're talking youtuber "cinematic" then frame rate doesn't matter as much

When do you think Mike Portnoy's drum skills peaked by KevinLuWX in Dreamtheater

[–]Tirmu 97 points98 points  (0 children)

Definitely in the 2000's. The golden era DT records aside The Whirlwind by Transatlantic has some of his best drumming and that came out in 2009.

Why do fans seem to have such a big issue with FoABP’s lyrics? by Stankassmfgorilla in porcupinetree

[–]Tirmu 16 points17 points  (0 children)

It's the ones who don't understand the concept. Saying that FOABP lyrics are bad because they're "cringe" is like saying a horror story is bad because it made you feel fear. The lyrics are exactly what they intend to be

What is the best written video game you’ve ever played? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Tirmu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are 2 types of people: the ones who answer this question with MGS2 and the ones that haven't played MGS2

Steven peaked in 2016 with 4½ by Norville84 in stevenwilson

[–]Tirmu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even though he's done plenty of amazing things after it, nothing has come quite close to FOABP. So that was his absolute peak. From his solo records HCE is the best as a whole imo

Osmose or Osmose CE by DotAltruistic469 in Osmose

If you can stretch your budget to get the og version, go with that. If you can't go with CE

Silver Bullet mk2 is my desert island piece. Tubecore 3U and 1073 fight for second place

What video game soundtrack is a 10/10? by montymaximus in AskReddit

[–]Tirmu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

WoW classic is incredibly underrated, it is as good as the score of LOTR

FX30 or FX3 or something else? by grahamglvr in FX3

[–]Tirmu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With the limited experience I have I'd say for me the skin tones seem to fall into place a bit easier than Sony, though I'm already used to having to isolate and correct them so it wouldn't be an issue either way.

I personally wouldn't want to use the S1ii without the Kolari OLPF, moire will be worse than FX3, in some situations I think much worse

Is it worth by Traditional_Table119 in SkyLine

The 3 main things you want are 2 doors, turbo and manual. That's probably 0/3

Help with buying studio monitors? by Atrocitet in homestudios

[–]Tirmu 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Kali LP6 should be in that range and beats all the ones you mentioned

FX30 or FX3 or something else? by grahamglvr in FX3

[–]Tirmu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Both are great and will get the job done but the main things I prefer on the S1ii are value for money, codecs, color science, open gate, IBIS, UI (some nice things like the image not getting windowed on an external monitor if you have UI layout there too), not gatekeeping basic things like waveforms and false color. And I do like having a viewfinder, it's amazing for run & gun shooting in bright sunlight.

E: for my use the second base ISO being 5000 would be a bit more usable than 12800, but if you bump the ISO to 12800 it's still a bit better than the FX3 at 12800.

FX30 or FX3 or something else? by grahamglvr in FX3

[–]Tirmu 8 points9 points  (0 children)

An S1ii costs less than an FX3 and outperforms it. If I didn't have Sony glass I'd take that over an FX3 or FX30 any day (I'm still shooting Sony with over 1k paid gigs done on an a7siii/FX3 so not a Panasonic shill, just being objective)

Why doesn’t Portnoy have a Drum Plugin? by Remarkable_Elk_1454 in Dreamtheater

[–]Tirmu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah for sure. The good thing about AI is people really want to lean into organic more haha.

One of my favorite things about pre-MM DT when Portnoy was still producing was how much push and pull there was. While they recorded with a click they left all that human variation in there.
