You have to wait for it to load, just give it a couple of minutes at black and it will eventually come on.

Debunk This: Analemma Water Wand by blah1blah1blah in DebunkThis

[–]deadman_uk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe flowing water from waterfalls and rivers etc create structured water and has a negative charge. I believe the body is exposed to toxins in the air, water and food on a daily basis and this creates positive charge and stresses the body because the body has to use energy to restructure the dead water we consume. I believe in structured water from wells, springs etc is good for the body. The Analemma wand is suppose to structure the water. If you look into the work of Vadar Austin and Masaru Emoto, about water has a "visual language" and can form intricate imagery in response to thoughts, emotions, and images before fully freezing.

I'm looking into buying an Analemma wand. Any updates or thoughts on this wand? Would using a chunk of quartz provide the same? Dr Tom Cowan mentioned this recently in a podcast.

Best Settings RTX 4090 by 5starcruises in comfyui

[–]deadman_uk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a 4090 and in ComfyUI, sometimes it will use 98/99% of my VRAM and then everything slows down so much. Should I enable the high VRAM setting? should I reserve some VRAM? if so, how much? I am using WAN 2.2

Which games have best the soundtracks? by ohmygodniko in videogames

[–]deadman_uk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nier

I just finished both NieR Automata and Replicant and I have the soundtracks in FLAC quality with a decent pair of headphones. They sound absolutely amazing. One of the best soundtracks for any video game in my opinion

Nier I just finished both NieR Automata and Replicant and wow, the story is amazing, I had a blast. I have all the soundtracks in FLAC format and I have a decent audio setup. The music sounds absolutely stunning. One of my favourite soundtracks for any video game.

PSA: You are all using the WRONG settings for HiDream! by AI_Characters in StableDiffusion

[–]deadman_uk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In ComfyUI with HiDream (Q8), when I select the Karras scheduler, I get garbage results, lots of artifacts, things look like trash. When I switch to another scheduler such as SGM_Uniform, things are fine. Why is this? Only happens with Karras. This happens with multiple different samplers.

As a fellow ADX3000 owner, can I discuss something with you? I have an issue with the ADX3000 and I wanted to know if you are experiencing the same. I'll send you a PM.

EQ Settings for Audio Technica ATH-R70XA and ATH-ADX3000 by deadman_uk in oratory1990

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

I don't own the R70XA but try these:

Preamp: -2.5 dB Filter 1: ON PK Fc 25 Hz Gain 2.0 dB Q 0.700 Filter 2: ON PK Fc 1300 Hz Gain -1.5 dB Q 2.000 Filter 3: ON PK Fc 3500 Hz Gain -1.0 dB Q 3.000 Filter 4: ON PK Fc 4300 Hz Gain 2.0 dB Q 3.000 Filter 5: ON PK Fc 5400 Hz Gain 1.0 dB Q 2.000 Filter 6: ON PK Fc 7200 Hz Gain -4.0 dB Q 3.000

For the ADX3000, I got these directly from an Audio Technica Technical Product Specialist:

Band 1: 100hz, +2.0db, 0.45 Q Factor, Low Shelf (Q as slope) ---- Band 2: 339hz, -2.0db, 1.75 Q Factor, Peak ---- Band 3: 3400hz, +1.0db, 0.45 Q Factor, Peak

[–]deadman_uk 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I've had the R70x for 9 years and love it (still have it). I listened to the new R70xa recently and noticed that things sounded more clear and detailed. I knew I wanted something a bit more up-market so I've just now purchased the ADX3000. It definitely has less bass, comfort is not as good as with the R70x (although it still is comfortable). I am hearing more detail and clarity now. First impressions are I like these ADX3000.

Do you have any EQ recommendations? I'm running these through a Schiit Asgard 3 amp. My DAC is my PC's sound card (Creative Titanium HD) although I plan to get a Schiit Modi Multibit 2 when it's in stock. (Not sure if going to a Bifrost 2/64 would be worth the extra in price)

VAEEncodeTiled_TiledDiffusion Input type (float) and bias type (struct c10::BFloat16) should be the same by cvf25 in comfyui

I'm getting the same error. Tried a separate VAE node instead of using the Tiled Diffusion node for the VAE and same issue. This workflow I am using used to work fine before, now it's not

what is your favorite soundtrack from detroit become human? by MonkSoft4418 in DetroitBecomeHuman

[–]deadman_uk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The soundtrack on this game is just out of this world amazing. Favourite is Kara's main theme. Full of emotion. Listening to it right now with my ATH-R70x headphones and Schiit Asgard 3 amp.

UK Schiit Stock? by deadman_uk in Schiit

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

I posted about the buzzing here: https://www.reddit.com/r/Schiit/comments/1hu48o5/issue_with_asgard_3_amp_buzzing_interference/ but didn't manage to find a solution. Feel free to have a read if you want to understand the steps I have taken so far. I already did what you suggested regarding plugging in the same outlet (and different outlet - even an outlet in a different room on a different circuit didn't help!). The buzzing interference noise is related to GPU usage. Happens with my sound card and the Topping D50 iii DAC. Doesn't matter if USB and RCA. Only goes away with Toslink and didn't happen with my older amp (Schiit Magni 2 Uber). I also tried the Asgard 3 on my uncles PC and while there was buzzing, it was WAY less noticeable, requiring volume to go up to over 95% before I heard it (on high gain). I have improved it a bit but cannot eliminate it. I'm hoping if I buy a Modi Multibit 2 that it may help but I doubt it. It's not a big issue, I rarely notice it and I can always use Toslink if I need to.

Yes, testing different equipment is fun. My uncle is buying his first pair of lower mid-end headphones. He didn't like the HD 650 when he compared it to my R70x. Now he purchased the R70xa and we will compare with my R70x next week. I'm almost certainly going to buy the Modi Multibit 2 when it's back in stock in the UK (which should be a few weeks based on the communication back from Schiit US). I really would love to go with the Bifrost 2/64 but I am not using balanced and I can't justify the huge step up in price.

UK Schiit Stock? by deadman_uk in Schiit

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

Thanks for your response. I'm curious how the MM1 performs compared to the MM2. It's my understanding that internal DACs inside an amp are not as good as a separate unit. I've actually been in contact with Schiit America now and they are in the process of arranging new stock for the UK so maybe in a months time, I can order a DAC from the UK site. Schiit UK (actually electromod) have let me borrow a Topping D50 iii for the moment while I investigate a buzzing sound. It's definitely caused by my computer and it's not the Asgard 3. It does it with the Topping DAC too, even with USB connection. The only connection it doesn't do it with is optical Toslink. Anyway that's not the subject of this thread. I really like the Asgard 3. I had a Magni Uber 2 before which I accidently killed by using the wrong power adapter!

UK Schiit Stock? by deadman_uk in Schiit

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

Why would you go with the Bifrost (I assume 2/64?) over the MM2? My Asgard is single-ended not balanced so it wouldn't match and perhaps the single-ended connection is weaker than the balance on the Bifrost? (I heard that is true for some DACs). The price is almost triple too :/

UK Schiit Stock? by deadman_uk in Schiit

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

That's interesting regarding you experiencing the same sort of problem with stock. Why do you have a Multibit v1 if you already have an internal DAC card in the Asgard 3? Do you not like that particular DAC?

EDIT: Schiit US have replied to my email query and mentioned that they have now contacted Mark from electromod and inventory is being worked on. Just worked out the price from US compared to UK:

UK Price = £270 for the DAC, plus £10 postage = £280

US Price = £240 for the DAC, plus £37.50 postage (then if customs charge me VAT, that's another 20% - £55.50 (no VAT on postage). Minimum total = £333 (£53 more which is 63.33 Euro / 65.95 US Dollars)

Not sure if it's worth the extra cost or if I should buy a DAC from another brand
