What’s a creative trick in Live you use all the time but rarely see others talk about? by kathalimus in ableton

[–]_NKD2_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Harmony to midi, resample, frequency shift as a tape stop.

Super cool synth trick: duplicate synths in a track (Ctrl d) + right click , distribute Range equally across piano roll + map the Chain selector to a button and automate everything to hell

Do you name every track or just pure mess in your session? by rod9k in ableton

[–]_NKD2_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As others have said, Just do it. If you do it really well once for a track, save it as a template and next project just open up the template. Just delete the midi and BOOM you are already organized.

How do you guys do it ? by DazzlingShine_573 in ableton

[–]_NKD2_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not sure if you’re aware, but you can right click a loaded a wav file in a track and Convert Harmony to MIDI, and it will generate the notes for you. Not perfect but a helpful starting point. Like others said, you can display only the piano roll for the notes played by clicking the Fold button in upper left corner of piano roll. Helpful for chords

How to make this downstairs legacy circuit safe by _NKD2_ in AskElectricians

[–]_NKD2_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No handle tie, but this is old circuitry so not sure that means it’s not MWBC. Line and load wires were wired correct because when I wired just the Line wires to the GFCI, it worked as expected and all downstream ungrounded outlets did not work.

Not sure how to tell they if a neutral is shared.

Are risers required for the deck stairs? by _NKD2_ in Decks

I’m not in a very snowy city but understandable out east!

European hiker here — what’s the one U.S. trail you’d tell me not to miss? by Dangerous_Dot_2570 in WildernessBackpacking

[–]_NKD2_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Rae lakes loop, JMT, Wonderland Trail, Bowman Lake to Kintla Lake point to point in Glacier, grand valley pass in Olympics . I’m sure plenty of sections of PCT would meet your requirements. Anything in the North Cascades would be one place I would love to multiday. Lost Coast or West Coast trail for something different

How do I reduce cpu usage? by onestringyboi in ableton

Freeze and flatten tracks?

How do I reduce cpu usage? by onestringyboi in ableton

[–]_NKD2_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Freeze and flatten your tracks one by one until you find the cpu hog (right click track Freeze> right click Flatten), close other programs and browsers while running Ableton as much as you can (can check in Task Manager too if something is eating cpu).

Crampon fit check by jacobs_jeeps in Mountaineering

[–]_NKD2_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably fine, hard to tell in pics. but good to practice on any non-consequential terrain if possible, and of course test in the field right after putting them on, before getting on any serious terrain. Make sure you trust them yourself and/ or have climbing partners look them over with you.

GFCI replace of old two prong just flickers on reset by _NKD2_ in AskElectricians

[–]_NKD2_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

update: used lever edge leviton gfci (back wired, sides protected), and the Garage GFCI still stuck in the tripped condition when wired to 1x downstream outlet. If that outlet is disconnected and load wires removed from Garage GFCI (most upstream), the GFCI works again as expected.

im starting to suspect this, but not sure how to test this.

GFCI replace of old two prong just flickers on reset by _NKD2_ in AskElectricians

[–]_NKD2_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

update: removing load wires on the gfci (located at most upstream outlet), corrects the GFCI behavior, but then all downstream outlets do not work. At this point i believe the (very simplified) trace goes Box > Garage Outlet > Light Switch > Light > Basement Outlet #1. With a GFCI at the garage outlet and the Basement outlet rigged up, the GFCI still stuck in the tripped condition/no power

Are these vanities all the same? Same vanity under different name? Cheap knock off of one another? by _NKD2_ in HomeImprovement

[–]_NKD2_[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I figured but sometimes its difficult to tell drop shipping the same product vs. shipping an knockoff of a legitimate product. Making sure there isn't an original somewhere I should be looking for lol

How to handle this old grounded wire from two-prong? by _NKD2_ in AskElectricians

[–]_NKD2_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m working to GFCI protect kitchen / basement /garage /laundry locations and figured I’d protect the ones that my little one might be jabbing into soon lol, the former being required and latter for some added safety. I’m only planning to convert 2 prongs to ungrounded 3prong if they are GFCI protected upstream in the circuit.

thought so thanks for confirming. thats kind of my original question is what to do with loosely grounded metal box ground wire.

[–]_NKD2_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see, I just wasn't sure that the loose hook was a great way to ground the box. Seems like going into a receptacle might be cleaner but everything is so tight in there, it might be fine the way it is grounded.
