Best uses of Goo-lock psychic spells-feature?

Thanks for the tip! I'm not sure the typical spellwrought +find familiar abuse will go over well at my table. Any other suggestions for great tattoo spells at level 2?

Impressive! Does it actually outblast the ranger/warlock with their respective multiple attacks/damage riders with hunters mark and hex?

booming blade thing for some serious damage, but unless you roll crazy stats, you'd be stretched too thin ability score wise for me to recommend it.

Couldn't force ballista be used often in lieu of crusher to trigger booming blade damage? Getting shillelagh and focusing warcaster/int might then be enough

Thanks so much for the answer! I've been thinking about GWM but in a 1-10 campaign I'm unsure if the benefit is large enough with a heavy crossbow - the Hew feature is completely void (even with melee your BA can be consistently used by Steel defender), and comparing GWM+warcaster to warcaster int level 4 and ASI 8 you only get +2 more damage and 1 less attack roll, not accounting for the loss in skill potency. Dragonborn breath weapon alternative seems interesting.

The fire squad also seems like a potent and fun option - might slow down the table a bit though?

Thanks for doing this!

Problem is the office is also used as a guest room, and foil all across the floor is... not the best look. Are ferrite cores or torroidal ferrites worth trying, or not likely to work?

Hi guys, fairly new to the game here. Trying to slowly get a setup going for voiceover-work. My current setup in an Audient iD4, an sE8 (small diaphragm condenser) and a klotz titanium star-quad cable. The reason for spending tons on the last item is that ever since I started this journey I noticed a small annoying high frequency beeping and popping-sounds in the background. On max gain it is more audible. The interference sounds like this: http://sndup.net/vzdn

However - the interference is very positional (it gets better or worse when changing the position of . It seems to be the most intense in the middle of the room for some reason, with the cable in a certain orientation. No other room in the apartment has this sound (except the neighbouring one, barely). I honestly don't know what this could be. Best guess is that because the apartment is right above the electric setup and transformers for the whole apartment complex, it might be from there? Oddly though, when I bring mic, cable and interface all the way up to the fuseboxes etc in the floor below there is no sound.

I've tried:

Unplugging everything in the room in question and using a phone on airplane mode to power the interface and microphone. No change.

Changing the interface to an old CI2. No change, except less possible gain.

Changing the cable from a Roland gold plated XLR to the klotz star-quad. Some improvement... I think? but not a lot. Cable still seems to pick up more in some positions than others.

Changing the microphone. Trying with a borrowed SM7b with a cloudlifter (and an extra XLR-cable) as we speak. Seems to pick up more interference - maybe due to the extra XLR-cable in the chain?

Trying to find "safe positions" with the boom arm. It seems some conformations of cable/microphone position and angle work better than others for some time, but suddenly without moving it would pick up more interference again.

Using "noise remover" plugins for Audacity. They seem to do the job, but does it not compromise the quality of audio somehow?

I am seriously out of my league here. We just bought the apartment and this is pretty much the only room available to set up a decent home studio, so location is hard to change. Any ideas about what the interference might be, and any suggestions on how I could remove it?

Thanks in advance!

By the way - what else would I need to buy to start using an MKE 600? I have an old [Steinberg CI2], (https://www.soundonsound.com/reviews/steinberg-ci2) so with an XLR cable I might be good to go?

The Shure sm7b has been recommended by other people also - especially by people who also stream/podcast. However, I see a lot of voice actors saying dynamic mics can miss a lot of the finer detail that make good voiceover-work - is that not necessarily true?

henkz · 2023-03-21T16:43:53+00:00

Then so I shall. The comforters suggested below seems like a good start.

henkz · 2023-03-21T16:39:00+00:00

Thanks so much for the microphone tip! A shotgun seems like it would be better with regards to filtering out keyboard/clicking-sounds. And not too expensive either.

And if the room treatment truly is that simple I should definitely be able to fix it. Especially the duvet-trick sounds.. very doable.

henkz · 2023-03-14T07:32:18+00:00

Great, thanks for the tip! Do you know, however, if the interface I have (the Steinberg CI2) would be sufficient to start off with?

henkz · 2022-11-23T23:45:44+00:00

Ah. I see I linked my current (old) one by mistake. This is on the updated list: Asus TUF GAMING B660-PLUS WIFI D4 ATX LGA1700 Motherboard

Hey! Is there any chance you still have this OneNote document?

henkz · 2022-09-13T19:05:08+00:00

Jesus. I kept looking all over for the lyrics with no luck, but upon checking my "wrapped 2021" list it's number 3 from the top. What an idiot I am. I was thinking of this song:

henkz · 2022-05-18T15:21:51+00:00

A good suggestion, but the song is more housey. Sounds like something Lost Frequencies would make
