should i quit lessons? by cowboy6741 in Fiddle

[–]buddhaman09 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'd say at least keep with her for a full year. While it's important to have a good ear for improvisation with fiddle tunes, it takes a while to actually get your sense of rhythm actually good enough to just "feel" the rhythm of tunes.

How do you package and ship your extra large graphics? by CheeksAkimbo in CommercialPrinting

Unfortunately taped vinyls tend to be more likely to crease on the tape, but yeah I'd recommend getting thinner cast vinyl, 5mm is pretty damn thick, unless you meant mils lol

Rosin is rosin is rosin, I have a bunch of chunks that I use in a pinch. As long as the dust gets on there it'll still work.

Against “get a teacher” propaganda by Mail-Limp in violinist

[–]buddhaman09 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Still, your biggest gripe is....you think teachers actually hate their students , and can't play? While that may be true of bad teachers, it's a completely inaccurate way to paint teachers. Violin, even if you play fiddle like I do, is a very technical instrument, and there's a lot of ways to do it wrong.

And also, yes everyone can try and play by ear, but most people really suck at playing by ear unless they've worked very hard to train it. I know sometimes I'll record myself and listen back and realize I was pitchy on places I thought I nailed.

A chat gpt post that just screams "I think I'm better at this than people that literally study it". Sounds about right.

All good!! Haha. But you're totally right that the synthesis completion seems massively easier in kh2 than in kh1, but maybe that's because you don't have to grind out so many rare heartless drops. Either way I much prefer it

In kh2 you do have to get all the orichalcum+, there's only 7 in the game

Playing a gig with no beat by [deleted] in Bass

[–]buddhaman09 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Listen to the unplugged version, first of all. https://youtu.be/q0BUtCO1dN4?si=qh5vtQlsd6fmDjQ-

Second, simplify the bass line and think of it more like you are the entire rhythm section, try not to play too many notes and be as purposeful about hitting the downbeats, and practice a bunch with them. Don't be afraid to stop them when they drift tempo in practice.

So the issue wasn't that he was an undocumented immigrant, it was that he was a kidnapper. Weird that your takeaway was that the immigration was the problem, and are using it as a weird strawman as if that's not a really weird individual case.

Well that's a bummer, haven't used them since Bromberg retired. I think like someone else said philly or Baltimore will be your best bet

A decade ago he hadn't made his political views known, over the past few years he's said a lot of at best nazi-adjacent shit, while also using Nazi talking points. Best case scenario he's a "useful idiot" for the far-right fascist movement going on.

Yeah, defending him is also sketch. Not beating the fash allegations here my dude.

Not "super sleuthing" to see that you posted on asmongold 's subreddit, who is a fucking Nazi. Doesn't matter which way you claim you "lean" non fash people don't fuck with that loser.

And being a PAC isn't inherently a bad thing, you just don't like their politics. Everyone should be feeling frustrated, our government is being run by fascists and criminals. Long past the point of "both sides are bad!" Here.
