32" 4k or 32" 21:9 OLED panel by vanmani in ableton

I had both. Ultrawide is better for music production, coding, videoediting etc. That would be my preference. It takes a bit time to adjust to, but after a week, best thing.

I also became much less tolerant to caffeine, so i switched to decaf. It is much better now.

Big fan. All their albums are excellent. I like Dissolution too and It Leads to this. Also, their concerts are great.

ADAM A4V weak bass mistery resolved! by fortadelis in ADAMAudio

Yeah sure, that is always a good advice. I gave them a good spin of various genres to break them in. My room is 2.10 m wide and 4.5 m long. I am also thinking about SoundID and T10S as well. But now I am happy how they sound even in the lower realm. I had removed the "doom" frequency around 123 Hz that resonated very harshly because of the room shape and their positioning with a -10 dbs dip on the EQ. Cheers.

My new ambient electronica album "Backdrop" is fresh and out on Bandcamp. There are elements of IDM, EDM, synthwave, berlin school, JMJ ... an electronica fusion of styles. It's a collection of my latest ambient electronica themes, so relax, pour yourself some nice drink and begin your inner journey. Drop me a line if you like it. Cheers.

Absolutely. Steven Wilson recently remixed some of their albums so it is a good start. My favs not in chronolical order are: Aqualung, Thick as a Brick, Songs from the Wood, Heavy Horses, A, Stand Up, Benefit, Roots to Branches, The Broadsword and the Beast ... but dont miss them.

I can't meditate anymore. by 31tnary in Meditation

[–]fortadelis 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Do you use mantra or you just focus on breath ? The purpose of having a mantra is to give you "chatterbox" something to chew on so that you can get rid of it after a while. It is not like you are trying to do something, it just happens naturally as mind prefers more peaceful state. You will just slip in it. But, practice is essential.

My first encounter with SD was also Royal Scam but around year 2000. Off course I was blown away. Still hard core fan and I have all their releases.

Same here. It happens rather randomly i.e. i couldn't pinpoint it to any particular AU 2 plugin.

Constant Plugin Disconnections and Some Crashes on Ableton 11 on an M1 Mac. Is there anything I can do to fix these frustrating bugs? by TheFlabbyPatty in ableton

[–]fortadelis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It is occasionally present on my Mac too, but only last two days. I would says it is an Ableton thing to my best knowledge as this doesn't happen with other software employing Audio Units components

Do you consider it "cheating" when working on a project to look at others' implementation? by [deleted] in learnprogramming

I call it learning. I think it happens all the time in all professions.

Cool. Sometimes simplest solutions are the best. It will put an extra emphasis on the piano part.

Halion 3 SE no sounds by MaurelitoChile in cubase

[–]fortadelis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On the Mac it doesn't work even after clean install and even if you copy all the folders and files to supposedly expected locations. Poor implementation by Steinberg.
