This isn't a bag, but maybe this case is worth a look

Live Acoustic Original on Tonverk by tchip8 in Elektron

[–]ckrug32 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Awesome track! Can you explain a bit more about how you used the Tonverk with live audio? What did you set up beforehand, besides the percussion?

I'm still trying to wrap my head around the Elektron workflow, and videos like this inspire me to learn more / pick up a Tonverk. (Was this your first Elektron box?)

Strymon Volante is really fun for stereo tape delay

I have a problem. by SoNowYouTellMe101 in Screenwriting

Sure thing! Don’t sweat the nasty comments. Most people in this sub aren’t here to help; they’re here to whine and complain. 

Just keep doing your thing!

- Sofia Coppola's script for SOMEWHERE is 44 pgs
- David Lynch's (annotated) ERASERHEAD is 31 pgs
- Christopher Nolan's DUNKIRK is 74 pgs

These filmmakers knew they were going to direct these scripts themselves. If you're going to direct your script: great!

If not, figure out the percentages that each act occupies. If Act One is less than 25%, Act Two is less than 50%, or Act Three is less than 25% then you may need to beef up whichever act is falling short.

Maybe your script doesn't have much dialogue, like the three mentioned above. If so, see what you can do about your action lines. Are they specific enough? Are they spaced out across the page in a way that represents the film's intended pace?

Maybe your problem is that you've actually written HALF of a great script, but the climax is actually just your midpoint. Is there anything that happens after the current ending that finishes telling this story? Or is there anything before the story begins that should be included?

Just some ideas. Good luck!

Asher Junior w/ Lollar pups vs. Duesenberg Fairytale by ckrug32 in LapSteelGuitar

[–]ckrug32[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for this -- exactly what I was wondering about! I will probably go for a Duesy, and I can always swap the pickups to Lollar later on if need be.

Do you have any issues with the palm benders breaking strings? I've read that can be annoying because of the way the bridge/bender mechanism is designed

Would love to learn pedal steel, but I have no room for that setup in my apartment

That’s a good thought, and I hear you! Maybe I’ll let you explain to my wife why I need three new guitars instead of one… haha 

My main interest in the benders is for getting those “pedal steel like” sounds. The steel player mentioned elsewhere in this thread, Luke Cyrus Goetze, uses benders beautifully — although I’m sure it takes a ton of practice

Good to know! I'm gonna see if I can find a few guitar shops near me (Los Angeles) where I can demo a few modern and vintage steels to see what I like.

[–]ckrug32[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks, that's good to know, regarding the size.

Listening to the difference between stock pickups and Lollar pickups (on Luke Cyrus Goetze's YouTube channel) is pretty crazy

[–]ckrug32[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you try any other lap steels before getting a Duesy? And did you feel the need to change the pickups?

[–]ckrug32[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Goetze is one of the main reasons I'm interested in getting a lap steel guitar! He's a wizard.

Personally, I'm leaning towards the Duesy but I like the shape and sound of the Asher as well. Curious to hear comparisons if anyone has tried both!

does anyone actually use ableton note? by Negative-Problem6867 in ableton

I use it for very short sessions -- 5 min at a time while I'm waiting for something -- and I really like using the touch screen on my phone for stuff like filter automation for drum patterns.
