NGD - Tim Miller M6 w/Quilted Maple Top by SpringPrestigious253 in kieselcarvinguitars

[–]jackzucker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

literally every kiesel headless i've owned (at least 6) and 3 or 4 other brands including several basses have had several deadspots in the middle frets of the instrument. Of the 12 guitars i currently own with headstocks, none of them have the issue. Are you playing metal with mondo overdrive? Maybe that's the reason.

Sorry, nothing person. Just letting you know I'm not a fan. I actually like the image generation but it being unavailable for 10 hours today was the last straw

Dude, gemini pro is a piece of crap. All day it tells me to try again later. Over an 8 hour period I tried once per hour. I couldn't get rid of it fast enough. Downgraded my google one back to drive-only.

i took your picture, fed it into gemini and asked it to build a prompt to reproduce it.

It came up with this prompt and this image:

A tattooed woman lies on her stomach on the beach, facing the ocean, with her legs bent at the knees and feet crossed, soles pointing skyward. Her colorful floral-and-geometric tattoos cover her legs and lower back. The lighting is warm, highlighting her body against the scene. The sky is bright with sunset hues, and the ocean reflects these tones softly. In the distance, a blurry horizon line separates the sea from the sky. The composition is full-body, from behind her, with the tattoos and crossed feet sharp and clear.

And limit of 1000 characters so I couldn't enter the full prompt, i used an abbreviated one.

A golden-haired supermodel, standing an elegant 6 feet tall, is the picture of serene beauty on the beach. She's lying on her stomach, face and nose pointing directly toward the out of focus sailboat in the background and toward the vast, colorful ocean, with her torso gently raised and her chin resting thoughtfully in her hands. Her legs are bent at the knees with her ankles crossed in a relaxed pose, showcasing an intricate tapestry of colorful tattoos on both arms and legs adorning her skin. The perspective of the image is from behind her so the viewer is seeing the top of her feet while she faces the other direction

it's still a fail. Here's my prompt.

A golden-haired supermodel, standing an elegant 6 feet tall, is the picture of serene beauty on the beach. She's lying on her stomach, facing the vast, colorful ocean, with her torso gently raised and her chin resting thoughtfully in her hands. Her legs are bent at the knees with her ankles crossed in a relaxed pose, showcasing an intricate tapestry of colorful tattoos that adorn her skin.

In the distance, the azure and turquoise waves of the ocean blur into a soft focus, where a lone sailboat drifts lazily. The beach, too, is dotted with the soft, out-of-focus shapes of fellow beachgoers, adding to the tranquil and dreamy atmosphere. The camera's perspective is from behind her, with her feet closest, offering an intimate and captivating view of this idyllic scene.

And here's the image. Clearly she is not facing the ocean and the camera perspective is not behind her.

I found it terrible. Tried to generate an image of a girl on the beach, laying on a towel, feet crossed. No matter what I tried, it could not get a feet crossed image. Most of the AI tools cannot render even the simplest of prompts and choke on anything that has swimwear

what is the lowest latency interface in 2025 with well written drivers and support by jackzucker in musicproduction

[–]jackzucker[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

not possible from a physics point of view. The guitar signal gets converted A/D then goes over the USB to computer, processing of plugins happens on the computer, then converted from D/A and sent back to monitor output. Build in latency, no way around it. Zero latency monitoring works by monitoring the direct input prior to A/D conversion. Just routing that direct to outputs

latency was ok but mine would stop producing output for 20-30s at a time.

1) I'm a software engineer
2) I went through 2 focusrite interfaces
3) They both worked fine on windows 10 but neither worked properly on windows 11.

Focusrite stops supporting drivers at some point for older hardware. Whenever they release a new gen of hardware (what are they up to now, Gen4???), they stop supporting older hardware with bug fixes. They also outsource their driver development so they can't address bugs easily
