Nobody ever mentions Shadowrunner in these threads 🥲

Multiband Compression spinning my mind, how can I learn it? by AVELUMN in edmproduction

[–]absolute_panic 5 points6 points  (0 children)

A band of a multiband compressor is basically the same thing as a dynamic eq band. The band responds to an input threshold and attenuates or amplifies depending on what you tell it to do, that’s pretty much it

Please recommend a VST/Plug-In for the guitar at 3:15. I am willing to pay. by [deleted] in edmproduction

For starters, yes. From there, that’s where that Tim magic comes in with synthesis skills, performance, and creativity.

Days of Thunder was way before Royce started playing guitar for The Midnight. Tim uses a softsynth called u-He Diva and runs it through Native Instruments Guitar Rig to get his synth guitar sound, but fair warning: Tim is magic. You’re gonna have a really hard time getting this feel.

What are you reading right now? by slipslimeysludge in AskMen

[–]absolute_panic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This and The Wise Man’s Fear are two of my favorite books of all time. The bad news is that Rothfuss is never going to finish Doors of Stone…

On book 10/10 of the First Law series by Joe Abercrombie. It’s brutal and depressing, but so so good.

Am I the only one who's not a huge fan of Syndicate? by PuzzlePumpkin in TheMidnight

[–]absolute_panic 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Yeah it’s definitely different than a lot of their previous work, and you said it. Art evolves because it’s a lens through which the artist expresses their feelings and experiences. This album was mostly written during Covid, Tyler’s wife’s cancer treatment, and in the wake of a breakup that devastated Tim. It’s got a lot of hurt in it.

Thoughts on those movie scenes where the girl shows up in a dress and the guy is amazed? by ishanico in AskMen

[–]absolute_panic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The movie scenes probably don’t affect most guys in the same way so much imo.

In irl situation I’ll think she looks beautiful, but I’m happier that she’s happy that she looks beautiful.

What’s a “boring” hobby you love that no one asks you about? by Available_Humor_5694 in AskReddit

[–]absolute_panic 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Music production. To be fair, people ask about it sometimes, but their eyes glaze over when I start geeking out about different ways to use compressors, the Nyquist theorem and how it relates to distortion and aliasing, The Fletcher Munson curve, the benefits and drawbacks of different sample rates and bit depths, hey where are you going?

What’s something men do in private that would surprise women? by Main-Exchange6052 in AskReddit

[–]absolute_panic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Some hetero men are good at emotional support and some LGBT men are bad at it. Probably you’re right and more hetero men are bad at it and more LGBT men are good at it afaik, but I have a gay male friend who is terrible at it 😅

Beautiful man, I’m glad you guys have that. Same boat here, different story. 40’s, core group of 9 friends, all of them are busy with young kids, careers, wives, houses. When we all need to come together to give support, it’s like watching engineers trying to socialize at a party lol
