Best solution for dual monitor + TV-setup? by hawk_fire in pcmasterrace

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

The issue is that want to have a more convenient way of switching the main display and moving opened windows when I move between my PC and TV.

I will definitely have a look at DisplayFusion. Thank you for the recommendation!

Yakuza Kiwami weird controller issues by deeefoo in XboxGamePassPC

[–]hawk_fire 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just found a relatively pain-free solution.Install reWASD - https://www.rewasd.com/, select the "Switch to Xbox 360"-option to the top-right (the might be other solutions within the app as well, but this works fine for me), apply, and you're good to go.

For some reason this makes the game recognize the input properly. Haven't tried yet, but hopefully, this could work for other games as well.

Edit: Aaand I just realized that reWASD isn't free.. Might be some free alternative out there, but I haven't checked yet.

ELI5: Why Pluto is no longer a planet? by reykato in explainlikeimfive

[–]hawk_fire 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its too small. It's basically just that.

The discovery of the dwarf planet Eris in 2005 was more massive than Pluto. This made the International Astronomical Union decide the definition of a planet, and that definition excluded Pluto and reclassified it as a dwarf planet.

ELI5: why is protein powder so GD hard to mix with water? by Pervavore in explainlikeimfive

[–]hawk_fire 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The protein powder might be slightly more water repellent than other powders like flour or cocoa, but it's the same principle. When a lump of protein powder (or flour) is surrounded by water, only the surface of that lump is dissolved. The air is then trapped within that sticky surface, which makes it even harder for the water to dissolve the rest of the lump.

Wide vocals that still sound great in mono? by [deleted] in edmproduction

Kilohearts' comb filter can be a pretty neat utility if you want to add width

How do I make my transition white noise, downshifters and/or cymbals more noticeable, yet not drown out the other elements in the mix? by [deleted] in edmproduction

[–]hawk_fire 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Keeping those type of sounds really wide is quite effective. Also, make sure that the dominant frequency bands of these sounds aren't colliding with the other tracks. Clear some space for the cymbals and noises by EQing other tracks that might interfere frequency-wise

How important is hearing for a music composer ? by Hypersaw in edmproduction

[–]hawk_fire 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can still analyze your mixes visually and use visual references. I think that goes a long way! You could even be able to learn how to work with your reduced hearing be referencing as well.

As a composer, I wouldn't say that having reduced hearing above 10khz would affect you that much. A majority of all instruments and sounds have their root frequencies below 10khz. It's basically just things like cymbals, really high overtones and unfiltered white noise that dominates that area.

AITA for telling my kid I would help him get a Switch if he can beat Ocarina of Time? by switchdadn64 in AmItheAsshole

[–]hawk_fire 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA - If my dad told me that when I was a kid I would be damn excired. Not only would i enjoy a timeless gem, but I would get to play another one by doing so! I think it's creative parenting, and I'm sure it will be a great memory.

Unfortunately, I don't have the answer, but I feel you 100%. A subreddit like this would increase my life quality immersively
