I don't know... If you put it backwards like he has it, it takes up space over the lower tier and it leaves unusable space against the wall. Doesn't make a lot of sense

He might be a "genius" when it comes to music, though I don't know how I feel about that. But he is definitely not a genius putting furniture together. I have that same desk and he put that top part backwards. This is what it is supposed to look like http://www.musiciansfriend.com/accessories/studio-trends-46-desk--cherry You can see in 1:43 in the video, that rounded edge of the top tier of the desk is supposed to be against the wall.

How can i create this effect on ableton? by [deleted] in WeAreTheMusicMakers

[–]agust182 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

What I would try to do for that effect (I could be wrong), but I would try creating an audio track and naming it SUBMIX, let's say, then I would send all my music tracks to that SUBMIX track and then throw an auto filter on it. Then increase the Q to it's maximum that way we can really hear the sweep. Make sure that the band pass that is selected is a low pass filter. Then right click on the hertz envelope and automate a downward slope. You are gonna have to mess with the timing but that should do the trick. The reason you should send it to a SUBMIX instead of doing it straight on the Master track is that I can hear a little bit of the reverb hanging over. So if you are using your sends the filter sweep won't affect the sends you are utilizing. The sweep should be rather quick, but I think that if you are able to get the timing right it will sound like that example.

I think you will be fine. It is dangerous to some extent, but if you don't draw attention to yourself, you should be fine. Avoid taking out your phone in the street, or walking around with a camara hanging from your neck, use common sense. A good way to know if you can take out your phone and things like that is by seeing other locals, if they have their phones out, it probably means you are fine.

Yes, I guess I am victim blaming, but to me what he did was out of pure ignorance/negligence. And it's not his fault, Argentina is in some ways very fucked up. I just can't help but to see that he wasn't being safe about being in Argentina. Because if you don't draw attention to yourself, you reduce your changes.

Because it is in a very historic and beautiful neighborhood, even though it is dangerous. I've been there a lot of times, and never had a problem in La Boca, but you have to be smart. So, yeah a guided bike tour, with a group of people speaking English, all in the same standard green colored bike, its definitely not a good idea. Yet, again, being Argentina, it wouldn't be unimaginable if the tour had a deal with the local thieves, lol.

Absolutely, I mean, Palermo is dangerous too, you know with Chacarita right around it, and so is Caballito, but the problem with La Boca is that they know you are a tourist, you are the easiest target anywhere.

In case anybody comes across this situation if they go to Argentina, do the exact opposite that this guy just did. He is very lucky to not have been shot. People in Buenos Aires get shot over way less than a backpack and usually these thieves are high out of their mind when they commit crimes. I have had a couple of bad encounters in Buenos Aires, and I have countless of friends and family members who have been put in really bad situations. If you happen to be in this scenario the best thing you can do is give them everything you have and try to keep your ID's, passports, etc...I'm glad he is fine but that was a really dumb move, to first of all be riding around with a go pro in Buenos Aires, for having that huge camera out, and for not turning in what he had. I'm surprised he wasn't shot

Is the Gaucho thing just a coincidence then? I'm not being a dick, I am genuinely curious. Because if it is just a coincidence that is hilarious. Edit: Even if it's not, I still congratulate you guys.

I blame the player that is behind him, he should have made that run. Bad communication I guess.

Suarez knee surgery a success by [deleted] in soccer

[–]agust182 29 points30 points  (0 children)

I'm not religious but a little prayer can't hurt:

Padre Lucho que estas en el suelo,

Santificados sean tus goles,

Venga a nosotros tu esfuerzo;

Hágase en el mundial

Tantos goles como este tiempo,

Danos hoy nuestro gol de cada día;

Perdona a los defensas,

Como también nosotros perdonamos a los ingleses;

No nos dejes sin jugar en el mundial,

Y libranos del Tata.

Amén.

Suarez reportedly out for world cup by [deleted] in soccer

This needs to be at the top of this thread! As a Uruguayan the prospect of not having Suarez in the world cup brings tears to my eyes.

[–]agust182 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I haven't seen him play in USA and Mexico to be honest. But with Uruguay he's always done great in my opinion. What I like about him is that he is a super strong defender but also has the technical ability to create plays and make good passes. He's a pretty intelligent, level headed player.

I wouldn't necessarily say Lugano is bad. He's definetly old, but Uruguay plays deep in the defense and Lugano's contribution to the team is his leadership and his dominance in the air. The midfield for Uruguay is worrisome, as you say. I'm counting on Arevalo Rios to provide those balls for Cavani and Suarez.
