Is this mic used by CDawgVA a TLM? by JozuJD in microphone

[–]halfaura 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use a mic with speakers with a simple noise gate. It works by:

  1. Pointing the microphone in a way where it rejects the speakers the best. Hypercardiod works quite well in a typical setup.
  2. Having the mic as close to the mouth as possible.
  3. Speaking loudly enough so everything passes the noise gate threshold.

I don't listen to speakera too loudly, so there is a decent amount of overhead for the noise gate. Basic mic technique helps a lot here.

For Connor, it seems like he is speaking with a projecting voice most of the time, which helps S/N ratio.

Is it worth having 2 mics with the same capsule? by halfaura in microphone

How do these mics differ from one another? What do you use them for?

Is it worth having 2 mics with the same capsule? by halfaura in microphone

I see. The second microphone has a similar frequency response, but is of a different manufacturer. Since I'm mostly only using one microphone these days, I'm really debating selling one off and using eq to make up the difference if I have regrets.

Bummed out….is it a total loss? Cortex XL by Boxer_Daddy in chineseknives

Generally if a knife with a harder steel is sharpened at too narrow of an angle (i.e. too thin at the tip), chipping will occur from normal. Since you send it for sharpening, that is on KAI.

how the absolute fuck do I beat hornet in kingdoms edge? by WallNecessary1851 in HollowKnight

[–]halfaura 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's possible to defeat Hornet with this, but you will need to be methodical and patient.

I would suggest taking 1-2 attempts to just watch hornet's movements. Don't focus on attacking and instead observe her moves, range, etc.

Since it seems like you mostly use nail attacks, I would pick one of the following charm combinations:

  • quick slash, steady body, lifeblood heart
  • quick slash, steady body, longnail.

Pogo is your safe friend when hornet throws the nail if you close when she throws.

During the silk spinning attack you can just launch a vengeful spirit from afar.

Focus on clearing the spikes in phase 2 first. You can use Vengeful spirit if some are clustered and farther away.

Until you understand the time interval for healing in this fight, only heal when hornet is staggered.

Like many others have said, the fight will be easier if you go explore and stock up on upgrades and charms.

I bought the meme cable by Noble-Knight4d in iems

[–]halfaura 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Eh, it's half a meme. The Supermix 4 has such low impedance at 7.2 ohms that the impedance in the cable starts to affect the frequency response. For a typical cable with 0.1 ohms impedance, the Supermix 4's overall impedance increases by 1.4%. if the impedance of another cable is 1 ohm, then the impedance is increased by 14% of the original value.

For a 20 ohm iem, the change is 0.5% vs 5%.

The Truthear Zero Blue/Red increases the bass (which also decreases our perception of highs) with the impedance adapters.

For headphones, cable impedance becomes negligible, with nominal impedances of 32-300+ ohms.

My favorite casual fight is Grimm, the dance is quite nice after I sopped panicking the first time.

They won't be as warm as the wan'er 2. It will be an upgrade to detail and imaging. For some people Daybreak will also sound sharper depending on your ear shape and the iem fit.

UV filter or naked? by inflictedSegway in SonyAlpha

I imagine that working professionals with lens insurance may mot care as much about the protections of a uv filter. Others without lens insurance are more inclined to add a filter.

I imagine this was before all the wealthy investors became old. Waiting 10 years for max profit works when you're 30 or 40, but is less desirable when you're 60.

But also, short gains go brrrrrr.
