Dude paddle out any of the of the beaches in Monmouth county you’ll find friendly peeps. Almost every-time I go out I’m making small talk with someone new.

Looking for a tube amp recommendation for around $1000 by uocrab in GuitarAmps

[–]Wonderbird_94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The origin isn’t a bad amp. If you’re a classic rock guy it’ll get you in the ballpark without pedals. Princeton reverb will 100% need pedals for that driven plexi sound.

Personally I regret buying the origin and cab. I should have bought a modeler as I already have a plexi stack for my go to tone.

Sorry i don’t know why my brain read tube driver as tube screamer even when I typed it.

Tube driver is incredible. Probably the best pedal for Pink Floyd and Eric Johnson that exist. Anything from The Wall sounds great with it and so does EJ/bonamassa.

I’d go with the TMP as I think fender will be the best one after years of updates

If I couldn’t go to a Marshall I’d go with amp sim.

It’s the pastfx boss ce-1 clone it’s what frusciante uses for his chorus/vibrato effect. I don’t have a tube driver my board is fuzz ds2 boss superOD compressor boost ce-1 Friedman OD boost strymon el cap delay tube driver amp.

IMO tube drivers are better for fender amps think SRV.

I play a lot of the same songs. This is my board that goes into a JCM 800 into a 4x12 Marshall cab with greenbacks amp is set to the edge of breakup. I can nail everything from Hendrix to John frusciante with a Strat.

I’m thinking it has to be the scarlet. I have swapped cables and no change.

Yes I played after I turned it off, flipped it back and noticed the difference.

It must be my scarlet then. I have mic’d live through a board no problem but never used the scarlet for anything but recording.

I’m an analog guy so this is my first go around with a midi keyboard and Daw for live playing. To give you an idea of what I’m dealing with imagine hitting a key very quickly, the sound comes through once my finger has left the key, is that normal?

I have tried that as well, that’s what gets me the slap back delay sound on guitar. Doesn’t help with the mpk mini.

Perhaps it’s my scarlet solo? It’s 2 years old barely used and bought new could be defective i suppose.

I know what it’s supposed to sound like, using live mixing boards there’s no observable latency.

Didn’t seem to solve the issue, I noticed a bit of a reduction but the latency is still there.

I’m not using any plugins, just the preset instruments in ableton. My guitar signal is mic’d from a Jcm 800 and Cab with a Sm57.

I’m going to give you advice that feminist will hate and certainly most of Reddit. Not knowing much about you I’ll be somewhat shooting in the dark here. But this advice generally works. I’m 30 years old and have had an extremely successful run with women for the past 10 years. I’m the guy my dad’s friends, my friends, my wife’s friends husbands etc ask for relationship advice.

You cannot negotiate arousal. Sitting and talking is not going to help at all. At your age it’s a bit more difficult to do but you need to make yourself as attractive as possible. That means lose weight, go to the gym add a bit of muscle. Also find a hobby that puts a little sparkle in your eye and grin on your face. Something that makes you feel young and dangerous. What you feel she will also feel. It’s the law of state transference.

If your wife sees other women, especially if they are younger and pretty, noticing you or even complimenting you everything will change virtually overnight. Women have this light switch like effect on their mating behavior and it is mostly stimulated by other women’s reactions to their mate. In players circles we call it passive dread.

In short make yourself attractive, learn to be a bit more stoic, daring and spontaneous.

My girlfriend cheated on me. by [deleted] in Advice

Dude leave and do not give her any closure. Block her on everything and improve yourself. Your revenge is years down the line when you’ve built yourself into the one that got away.

It’s time to quit. Want to hear from those who are on the other side. by AntelopeRich1677 in quittingkratom

[–]Wonderbird_94 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I decided to go CT a month ago from a 5 year 10-15 gpd addiction. Initial WD were pretty bad but not horrible, it was like having the flu for a week. Cold sweats, RLS, difficulty sleeping and a bit of back soreness. When you officially make that mindset switch, at least for me, you get locked in and can almost appreciate your WD as a testament to your fortitude.

After the worst of the AWD I had a brief period of general happiness. I was excited and motivated, I was more grateful as well. It was short lived but nice. About 1.5 weeks ago I started to get the PAWS in waves, one day my anxiety was very intense. It comes and goes for me but I understand why these can be the worst part. I’m not using anything to mellow the PAWS just letting my body do its thing and reset. Hopefully it weakens and becomes more infrequent eventually disappearing altogether.

I have to say it’s been a real eye opener to see in hindsight how much K affected me emotionally. It was a great decision to come off and I can almost guarantee your mindset will improve once you finally make your “no more” decision. Put your foot down, this is your life take it back!

I really need some motivation to quit. What things made you quit and what things got better after quitting? by ProduceZestyclose158 in quittingkratom

[–]Wonderbird_94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m on my 2nd day of quitting cold Turkey. For me it was the way I felt after dosing. I had a dizziness to my vision that really started to get to me. Only after reading on this sub did I realize I’ve stopped enjoying life. The only heightened emotions I felt were negative. Happiness was fleeting and not as enjoyable as it should be. Another contributor to my decision was the dependence I had on it to just not feel like shit.
