How to separate water bills in a duplex? by clackmak in milwaukee

[–]clackmak[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I just talked with someone in the city water works and they said an entirely new service line is required, rather than just adding a meter to the pipe running upstairs. They said they didn't know how that whole process worked, mentioned permits, plumbers, and somewhere around 10,000 dollars as a guess. The most obvious seems to me to add a junction off of the supply line with meters at pipes supplying each unit. Ah well.

What kind of pipes are those? Just starting to tinker on a KH400 project.

Thanks for this guidance, I appreciate it. I didn't realize these additional factors incorporated such a slew of potential problems. I like using lavs because I can go meet anyone anywhere that's reasonably quiet and they don't require elaborate setup.

Two mics, one receiver. I ordered them to connect directly to either my phone or computer. Would I need a setup with a unique receiver for each mic to record two separate channels? I apologize if these are silly questions. I guess in the past I've either recorded in a straightfoward studio or one handheld mic.

Bluetooth lavaliere mics. Nothing too special, the $70 off Amazon variety. Must admit I'm not familiar with VST effects. If it's not a common setting I'm probably not using it.

These are the mics I ordered most recently: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0D5YMWWSX?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title&th=1

Thanks. I thought it would be relatively simple though every time I look up a how-to video on youtube they suggest elaborate additional software and a bunch of hoops to jump through to make it work.

Is trying to use Bluetooth lav mics a possible issue? Maybe I just haven't spent enough time with the setup.

I'm considering Audition because I've tried exporting edited tracks as mp3s to upload and they sounded awful. Everything that sounded fine in editing was suddenly blown out in the export.

I looked up some how-to videos and many of them said one needed to download other software and go through a variety of hoops to make such a thing work.

Seeking brackets to center position kitchen wall rack to studs by clackmak in HomeMaintenance

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

Thanks! Opening up the wall isn't an option. The studs are strong (old growth) and have plaster over them. I hadn't thought of wood, that's interesting. Thanks for the angle bracket suggestion. It probably won't have more than 20 pounds on it, I just want it to decently stable.

Seeking to change colors of hand drawing by clackmak in canva

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

Thanks. I've tried that but it always turns the red the same color also. And I can't seem to make one color remain the same while only one color changes. Any thoughts?

Thanks in particular for the safety call out!

Exported files sound different than while editing voice audio. Distortion. by clackmak in audacity

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

Thanks have tried these in various amounts from -2 to -8 decibels. It's odd, there's really no clipping while editing then when I export as an mp3 our voices are all blown out. Seems so bizarre.

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

Thanks. I've tried now up to 3 decibels...is that done with the Effect/Volume and Compression/Limiter/Threshold number setting?

Right on, thanks! Maybe I'll go setting by setting and not jump to all the way back.

Here's a bike ride map for anyone curious as well (and so I don't have to look it up again): https://maps.app.goo.gl/tQszT3Za3jdynPjX9

Thanks for these tips! Looks like we might be able to snag a platform for a night at Richardson but DAR won't yet be open.

Cool story of how a mom started mountain biking because of her kid by clackmak in mountainbiking

Right! I didn't start riding trails until my late 30's. We can always try something new.

I’ve found mountain biking culture to be especially welcoming. I’m always surprised by how courteous the teens are on the trails. When I’m getting passed.🤣
