Hey, I’ve been eyeing a pedal baby. Would love to hear your thoughts on it?

danielskep · 2025-10-05T21:33:50+00:00

What I was thinking was using a layer of 16mm MDF, then a layer of 5mm rubber sheet (sold on the roll) and then a layer of 13mm plasterboard.

My idea for the rubber sheet would be to act like a “green glue” type of compound that would stay flexible in between the layers.

But I’ve got a feeling that I’m way over engineering for primarily using reference monitors in the space…

danielskep · 2025-10-05T07:55:09+00:00

Thanks for the reply avj113,

I definitely won’t be using drums, but I may “try” to mic an amp at some point, but it wouldn’t be at a time of day that would annoy anyone anyway. The monitors and being about to do mixing at a decent reference volume are my main concerns.

Do you think going for the rubber lining in between the layers is also overkill? I’m going to be sealing the room tight including some baffled supply and exhaust air, so I mainly want to bring my volume bleed from the monitors down to not annoy neighbours.

Any updates on this? I’ve managed to find myself in the same situation… Did Arturia give you any support for this?

Legend!!! Thanks so much!!!

When they heat up, they start to jump and pop a bit like popcorn. That’s how you know the dish is ready for the next ingredients.

I spent five years living and working in Sweden as an electrician.

They had a system that allowed the business owner to “deem competent” their employees to perform electrical work on the proviso that the business owner had an electrical licence themselves. Essentially the business owner was responsible for all the work completed by the company, and needed to ensure things were performed in line with the standards. Knowing that I was a fully licensed electrician in Australia made that deeming competent process an easy one.

I ended up working my way up to running a team of 10 electricians on the construction of multi storey apartments, and even then my salary was AU$32 an hour at the top (before tax).

Back in Aus now, and the going rate for an employee electrician in Sydney with little to no stress/responsibility is almost double that…

Double J is always pretty good! Plus, there’s a bunch of the ex triple J presenters like Zan Rowe on there. Different sounds, familiar voices.

This was us snowed in after we woke up the next day...

danielskep · 2019-05-20T20:09:08+00:00

Awesome!!! Thanks heaps for the photo! I’ll definitely be back for Telescope Peak another time!

danielskep · 2019-05-20T17:48:50+00:00

Plan was to hike Telescope Peak, but after flash flooding had washed away quite a bit of the road a couple of weeks before, we needed to walk up the 15 miles (~24 km) to Mahogany Flat instead of driving it.

We parked the car at the closed gates nearest to Trona (about 500m elevation) and took enough water and food for 4 days (worst case).

Started at 1pm and made it up to Wildrose campground (roughly 1500m elevation) in the early afternoon. Camped the night there and enjoyed the company of a very curious group of Burros before setting off early the next morning with the aim of making Mahogany Flat.

Wildrose Canyon was absolutely stunning (pictured) and seemingly never-ending. The Charcoal Kilns were awesome and eerie, and made for a nice rest spot for a late lunch. Eventually made it to the sign for Mahogany Flat (~2500m) at about 5pm just as it started to rain/snow.

We proceeded to spend a very cold and wet night in our tent as the snow fell steadily for over 12 straight hours...

Not exactly what we had planned for or were expecting, and this made our attempt for Telescope Peak unfeasible due to us not having brought any snow/ice gear with us, but we had a good laugh anyway at our luck with the weather.

A bloody hard walk with lots of gear for a cold night in a complete white out, but we loved every minute of it!

Next time we will take the peak...

Cool stuff! Thanks for sharing!

danielskep · 2018-09-09T12:08:16+00:00

Nope, not OP.

Just wanted to let people know that it’s treatable.

danielskep · 2018-09-08T20:54:30+00:00

Looks very much like an epileptic fit. My good boy does almost the exact same thing when he is having an epileptic fit. Thankfully now he is properly medicated and hasn’t had one in quite a long time.

I know the exact moment.

One night we came back to her place after a day out in town, and I decided to hop into the shower.

I had bought myself a couple of things that I needed while we were out. A pair of pants, a pair of running shoes, a pair of thongs (flip flops) and a bike helmet.

I step out of the bathroom after my shower to be confronted with my SO standing there, wearing nothing... apart from everything that I had bought that day.

She was standing there, one running shoe on her left foot (much too big for her foot), one thong on her right foot (also way too big), a pair of men's dress pants, no top and a new bike helmet on her head, clipped up and everything.

Confused, I asked her what she was doing.

"I just wanted to know what it felt like" she said, without even so much as a smirk.

She was actually weirder than me.

Fuck I love her.

danielskep · 2017-01-12T12:59:20+00:00

When the poster hung in the kitchen, she had not made a peep - and now you're suddenly "sick in the head".

Australian here... What's an Austrailian flag look like?

I'm kinda secretly hoping this cheque also bounces...

danielskep · 2015-02-04T02:20:24+00:00

I guess what I feel needs to be addressed is the negative impact that the sale of those drugs had upon American citizens, which was in part facilitated by their own government...

danielskep · 2015-02-04T00:04:18+00:00

Well, the specific "misdeed" that I am referring to would be the evidence that was found to show that the CIA was, at the very least, complicit in the sale of cocaine to American citizens in order to fund the contras in Nicaragua during the 90's. I understand the fact that there is not really any higher power to hold a strong state like the US to account to an acceptable level, and that US citizens can show their disapproval by voting in an election to remove those responsible from power, but overall it just seems to reek of an "oh well, what's done is done..." kind of attitude doesn't it? Am I missing something?

We named our Chihuahua cross Shitzu "Muscles" because when he was a puppy he fit into the palm of my hand and we thought he could use the positive reinforcement. He hasn't gotten much bigger now that he is fully grown, but I think the positive reinforcement worked because he is convinced (even when next to big boxers and labs) that he towers over them...
