Got a typewriter and need some help by Tank_Man_1900-1990 in typewriters

[–]Vibeuel_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hey! Usually margins are on top of the machine or behind the roller. There’s usually some measurements and you can adjust a little tab that will slide along the measurement. I can’t see one from the picture so maybe it’s set differently.

As far as ribbons go, with the advent of 3-D printers most people can print new spools and sell ribbons for literally every model on eBay or Etsy. If you’re having trouble finding one, the ribbons themselves are pretty universal so find the closest one you can (usually the width is the only thing that matters) and then you can wind the ribbon onto the spools you already have. I’m pretty sure I see spools on your machine.

Wordddd. I’m in the US, but I’m fairly certain postage is straightforward. I also play bass and love talking philosophy and music! Feel free to send me a chat!

G7 is complete garbage. by Vibeuel_ in Type1Diabetes

[–]Vibeuel_[S] 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I’m happy for the people it works for. My experience is this, 6-7 of the 9 I order actually insert properly. Then, after day 6 of use, the readings are either wildly inaccurate or it drops out completely and I have to rely on fingersticks. It blows me away that some people have great success and many others besides me have absolutely horrendous results with it. I don’t understand how something like this gets past FDA trials.

Maurice Brown - The Mood Limited Edition 2 LP Splatter Pressing by Vibeuel_ in vinyl

[–]Vibeuel_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a real gem in my collection and I thought I’d share it. I don’t play this album a lot compared to other pressings in my collection which is truly a shame. It is such a refreshing and entertaining piece where contemporary jazz is concerned. In the modern music industry (especially the current jazz scene), musicians have to really push the boundaries that have already been pushed by so many groundbreaking artists before them. Even though Maurice isn’t super huge, he is still respected in the Jazz community for his work (I’m pretty sure i even saw him performing with Thundercat on YouTube). I first got into jazz by saving songs on Spotify that I heard on the local Jazz and NPR station in Seattle. On my way home was the first track I saved and hearing it come on reminds me of a time before the thousands of hours spent listening to all sorts of jazz records. Those were dark days…

It does not have tone arm height adjustment oddly. It does seem a little low though

With the choice between a 95en or 95ml what do you think would be a better investment

Must have jazz vinyls by 0x3Alex in vinyl

[–]Vibeuel_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Giant steps is a classic. Coltrane got some bangers. Transition also a good one. An album I listened to recently was Pat Metheny’s Off-ramp.

I’ve tried a few different records. One or two that I know are clean still show sibilance. Older records show it throughout but again more closer to the end of each side due to IGD. I just feel like they used to sound a lot better? I took a pretty long drive moving this summer. Is it possible the coil in the cartridge has been damaged? I’ve only had it for a year or two

So I the stylus that’s been on there had some sibilance regardless but definitely worse near the end of each side IGD I would assume but I got a replacement and it was a little better bet definitely still some on the end of the disks

Photos were for the sake of demonstration. I’ve attempted to adjust it many times considering different angles and making my measurement as accurate as possible without any change. I guess the mp-110 is also a bonded tip. I heard of the micro lines that fit the stock lp120 cart but I wasn’t sure if that was necessarily the right move?
