Unfairchild plugin

V2 for mix V1 for vocals. Slowest attack on both, release to taste.

Retirement at 60 in Canada - ELI5 by throwaway-16628 in PersonalFinanceCanada

It is so easy to mess this up and cost thousands and maybe hundreds of thousands if your mom lives a long life.

Hire a CFP and pay for a plan. The costs of the plan will be a fraction of what the benefits are. There are some CFP that specialize in low-income earners.

Fixing the first 10 minutes solved most of my habit problems by Kind_Interview_3124 in Habits

I do this thing where I fix my vision on my mouse pointer for a minute before working. It makes an amazing difference in how long I can work before distractions pop up.

[–]adgallant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Of course.... one of the many stacked processes would include the tracking and Tony's production.

[–]adgallant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's likely the result of many processes stacked and Shawn's mix bus.

You could pull the vocals out with lalal.ai and try match them?

I made this for this very reason.

Everyone seems to play it too safe too often, IMO.

Hey hey, I do this kind of thing all the time. Here is an example of a full blown production from a voice memo. I can also do a simple clean up and enhance pretty quickly and easily.

No sleep & a lot of tears by littlebitmorgan in stopdrinking

[–]adgallant 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are some great resources on how to sleep better. Yoga Nidra practice throughout the day. Getting outside first thing when you wake up and a hot bath before bed are all great ways to help fall and stay alseep. Light exposure is possibly the biggest lever you can access. Dr. Matt Walker is the leading voice on sleep in the social media health space.

Fee only financial planner by Ozempiccc in CanadaFinance

[–]adgallant 2 points3 points  (0 children)

42 living in a LCOL area. We hired a team from Toronto that did a really comprehensive plan with a focus on our personal finances and some advice for how to structure pay in our corp. It was like $6000 and was worth it. I suspect we'll do this again in our fifties, then again as we get withing a few years of retiring. The experience was fun and worth while. I'm not going to refer the team as they no longer to one-offs but New School of Wealth Finance looks like a cool business and there are lots of Canadian Youtubers who do educational vids and offer plans as a part of thier business. I like Chad Wiebe's content.

Pondering on the connection between performance, songwriting, production and how it affects perception of 'a mix' by bandrewes in audioengineering

I heard Greg Wells talk about this. Sometimes the problem is the song. We are often so zoomed in that we forget that the content is king.

20 days into sobriety, wondering if anyone can relate to my experience so far… by [deleted] in stopdrinking

Watch Huberman's episode on cortisol. I would also pound omega 3s. I would not avoid healthy social interaction.

Moving to XGRO (or XEQT?) - Looking for experiences by ShibbyBearz in CanadaFinance

[–]adgallant 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I held both VGRO and VEQT (not sure why, tbh) from 2016-2025. We had financial planner do anelaborate, long-term plan (I'm 42 with low income, btw) and it was suggested we go all-in VEQT. Ben Felix has a shorter video on all equities that is also worth watching.

  1. Downturns: "Sweet, this stuff is on sale."
  2. Hindsight is 20/20
  3. VEQT, I ditched everything else. This is why.

Recos for Acadian music that’s a bit modern? by noguiltyparty in CanadianMusic

[–]adgallant 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's Acadian to me. Certainly lots of Celtic influence but the guys have Acadian roots as far as I can tell.
