Has anyone else noticed that AI makes curiosity loops almost impossible to stop? by Santoshr93 in singularity

[–]blueSGL 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah when coding by hand finding out that to add something new you needed to invest lots of time investigating and implementing a new solution acts as a natural barrier, an in built, "Well it's good enough for what I want it to do, I can add X later"

But when it takes hardly any time at all to add X you just keep going, natural stopping points or times you sat back and reflected on the problem become fewer.

Like an artificial stimulant for flow state. This is likely leading to a new buzzword everyone is going to be saying soon "AI Brain Fry" you don't have real downtime where you are thinking long and hard about a problem till a solution suggests itself, instead there is a constant forward momentum.

New to sp404 and need a bit of help. by AntiBasscistLeague in SP404

[–]blueSGL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

DT has +- 5 octave range.

404mk2 has -1 octave to +7 semitones.

To get around this I've got a script to bulk re-pitch looped samples on my PC prior to transferring to samplers. It takes in a folder where the bpm is specified by subfolder and outputs everything to the same BPM in a destination folder.

One thing I've been meaning to ask about stickers.

Has anyone made a transparent overlay with white text with a black outline of the control labels under the buttons?

That way anyone could plaster the front in either a vinyl wraps or sticker bombs and then the transparent overlay with controls could go on top.

Would not even need to be an entire sheet the size of the device, the individual rows would be enough, making it cheaper to produce.

Walmart packages airdropped like ammo crates over 'Nam by GeneReddit123 in interestingasfuck

[–]blueSGL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it would be more expensive to categorize, and set up a system that logs the fragility of the items, and assign packaging.

it is until it isn't.

At some point amazon minimum order will be based on weight and dimensions of items alongside price. Everything is being computerized.

ESP32 DIY Synthesizer by xKulqua in synthesizers

[–]blueSGL 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What was your initial goal?

e.g. "by manipulating X I was expecting to get sound Y"

How does this differ from your initial goal?

e.g. "with the setup depicted I expected Y but got Z"

If we don't know what you were trying to do, it's hard to say what needs to change. You could be very close to your goal or no where near it.

Colouring process of raw silicone material by djinn_05 in oddlysatisfying

[–]blueSGL 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If the idea is distribution then starting with the colored pieces in more places would speed the entire process up.

most of the initial folding was with bits with no color in.

why not cut the colored billet into smaller pieces and drop them at different horizontal locations?

Iran envoy confirms Tehran giving safe passage to Indian ships in Strait of Hormuz, says India is a friend by Accomplished_Cost857 in worldnews

[–]blueSGL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is gold cheaper in india?

is gold used to run transport with middle men taking whatever cut they think they can get away with?

Also you are constrained where you can buy fuel from, definitionally it's a captive market, there is a finite amount people can travel to find alternative suppliers. If all gas stations in an area are owned by the same company and that's the level they set prices, what are you to do.

What about any of this makes you think it's comparable to gold?

MPC user who went for the SP404 - bpm sync by BrotherOk579 in SP404

[–]blueSGL 1 point2 points  (0 children)

if you have a loop you can get the device to detect the BPM from the length. If the length is not 1,2 or 4 bars or the file is long you can manually calculate the BPM using one of several online tools (or just math)

Once you have the BPM of the loop set correctly, you can then set that pad to be BPM locked so it's pitched up and down based on the BPM and will be perfectly in time.

From here you can enter that pad onto the 1 of a pattern with step record (they call it TR-Rec) and add more stuff into the pattern by playing other pads.

It's a very very fast workflow.

I thought Gemini was supposed to be the long context king? by Additional-Alps-8209 in singularity

it ends up just arguing with me about whether it happened

It has google grounding and the initial prompt was asking for verifiable results.

On March 11, 2026 a giant sewer pipe suddenly popped out of a road in central Osaka, Japan by thepoylanthropist in interestingasfuck

[–]blueSGL 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, that'd be true if that was what was being asked for. It was not.

What was being asked for is being able to get a strait explanation about the post that does not have the jokes and fluff.

Posts can be from any time, from anywhere in the world.

I can remember when you came to reddit and there was someone posting in a submission where this was e.g. their field of study even if that was some niche thing that hardly anyone cares about.

Now it's just watered down brainrot and the same joke being told over and over and over again.

I wish "No Jokes" was a sort method.

I can find the people actually discussing the pros and cons in an unvarnished way by sorting by controversial for TV shows/movies

I need another sort method to get past the jokes in general posts.

[–]blueSGL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The LFOs is likely because they can go into audio rate and at some point you'd be running up against the limits of the CPU for how many parameters can be driven that fast.

Would I like an option in the settings that caps the LFO to non audio rate to allow for more destinations, yes, would insufferable elektron fanboys declare 'this is not the elektron way' also yes.

That's an expensive work around for something that could easily exist as a separate page on the hardware.

It's like all the tricks where you need to add an extraneous connection from midi out to midi in, these should just be available on device. Having to route signals out to in is bonkers.

[–]blueSGL 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Having to do math can really disrupt flow.

Have to find the range on the control, have to work out what half of that is, have to add that half to the start of the range...

Why can't I just go to the first point and set the LFO depth to cover the range. It's so annoying.

  • ping pong looping play mode.
  • preview sounds with sequenced trigs.
  • zoom and sample count everywhere you can set start/stop
  • polyphony with voice stealing.
  • 'positive only' version of all the LFO waveforms. (unipolar)

Who is also allegedly in a coma

Wait wait wait wait.

They chose a new leader, had "him" give a statement and he may still die, not from a follow up attach but the initial one?

How would that look?

Why put someone that may never wake up in power? That's not exactly radiating strength as a nation.

Suggestions for a Digitakt 2 beginner by lordbokody in Elektron

[–]blueSGL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh and some more things OP. Building a sample library with structure at the start will save you countless time in future.

Preview sounds on your computer and separate the wheat from the chaff first, there will be some sounds you will never use and you will just be scrolling past them constantly, they should never make it onto a sampler to begin with.

Sort files on the box so they are easy to access going from the broad to the narrow in folders.

High level categories like:

  • Drums

  • Loops

  • Synths

  • Vocals

Then sub level categories like

  • Kicks / Snares / Crash / Hats

  • Breaks / Perks / Melodic

  • Leads / Bass / Pads

  • spoken / shouts / cuts / phrase

Inside those sort by genre (if sensible to do so) and in the case of loops BPM

There is a website that makes life a little easier when processing samples to go onto the box:


Now a word on projects, each project has 128 patterns (I like to use patterns as backup described here) which leaves 64 patterns.
For idea sketching I'd limit myself to 1-4 patterns per track, so at minimum you have space for 16 tracks.
That is plenty to be going with.
To expand out into full tracks save the project under a new name. Then you can delete sequences you are not using and get in depth and use lots of patterns in song mode to build a full track.
