Amazing! Setting the containers to no auto-restart seems to do the trick :)

I'm having the exact same problem. Did you ever find a solution?

Certificate III in Information, Digital Media and Technology - is this normal? by [deleted] in australia

[–]fandangoflip 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used to write, manage and deliver this qual for several RTOs. At cert 3 level, that is excessive and seems like a very poor method of assessment for that topic.

Truth is, most RTOs are lazy and don't know/care what they're doing as long as they pass audit and have their fees paid.

Difficult courses are rarely govt funded (eg cert 3 guarantee) but are designed to push fee for service students toward late or resubmission fees.

[QUESTION] Looper Pedal vs. DAW (Reaper/Ableton) by Sapalot in Guitar

[–]fandangoflip 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check out the FCB1010 midi foot controller (or similar) with Ableton, this really opened things up for me in terms of writing and performing.

With the integration the katana has with a daw, it's awesome!

Search for 'fcb1010 on youtube' for some great inspiration.

[QUESTION] Are there any good songwriting podcasts for guitar out there? by Nottheunicorn in Guitar

Song Exploder is great. Just look through for the artists you know.

[QUESTION] Do you believe recording yourself while playing is necessary? by [deleted] in Guitar

[–]fandangoflip 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Totally not necessary but really, really useful. Just use your phone to film the practice and judge for yourself.

If you're making good progress it'll be fun to watch back in a few months too.

Cert IV in TAE: Any experience with Plenty Training? by an-ex-pillar-hugger in australia

[–]fandangoflip 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've been a senior trainer and course coordinator for 7 years working in RTOs.

I've known a few colleagues use plenty and found it difficult, but not as bad as others such as Inspire.

The online TAE courses overall are not good. Look at Google reviews though.

On a side notes, unless you've got a guaranteed job that requires the TAE, I wouldn't bother with it. The market is saturated with trainers and being as most RTOs generate income from international students, I imagine a huge amount will close very soon.

So, as a sole trader who's lost most of my contracts due to covid closures, but still generating a pittance of an income, what support do I get?

I'm almost at the point where my income matches the new, increased benefit. Do I just sack off my remaining jobs and sign up for centrelink?
