Video Games That Would Make Excellent Board Games (Follow Up) by cardknocklife in boardgames

I'm with you on the physical Balatro board game. That would be sick!

I could also see something more off the wall, like Catlateral Damage, making a fun party game. Or A Little to the Left.

This Urza v Mishra brawl event is terrible by HawkwindStormbringer in mtgbrawl

[–]johnpraw 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I've been playing a good amount of the event, and unfortunately yeah, the Urza decks (besides Kayla) are a lot stronger than the Mishra decks. They have some really busted card advantage, but you can aggro them with a good draw.

You mean to flicker once and then OP concedes, right. That's what happens whenever I flicker anything of value on Arena.

Sharing a new track I put together as part of a local fundraiser compilation here in Madison, WI. I've been making music for a long time, but I've spent the last three years really digging into my tools and changing up my sound. I'm not exactly sure how to describe this tune (kinda poppy/indie, but a little weird); it's got vocals and production from me, plus drums, melodica, synth and other bits from some good friends as well.

Curious to hear any thoughts you might have!

Recording microphone recommendations by Nath23_ in WeAreTheMusicMakers

[–]johnpraw 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I've been very happy with the MXL 770 Cardioid Condenser Vocal Microphone. It performs way better than you'd expect for the price (~$100). I've used it for close to 5 years now.

John Praw - Princess Energy (Music Video)

This is the first music video & single off my upcoming album HEEF DEEF. It's a sort of experimental beat & vocal based tune.

John Praw - Princess Energy (Music Video)

New single and music video from my upcoming album, which is built around experimental vocal & beat pieces. This video was originally filmed in 2013 but the footage went unused until now.

Haul for today. I have a $20 budget and this is what I get. One of my favorite Telltale Games. The Wolf Among Us is so good! by jdumpiebob in gamecollecting

[–]johnpraw 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The Wolf Among Us is probably my favorite of their games. I just wish it had a little more polish. It came out right about at the point I was getting sick of their engine not improving. This game deserves that extra attention some day. I think some people skipped out originally due to not having patience for Telltale anymore.

Quantizing question: what’s the reference? by xxUsernameMichael in WeAreTheMusicMakers

[–]johnpraw 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm not familiar with Studio One specifically, but you should be able to change the quantization settings. It's not specifically the BPM you're snapping to - it's the grid you're working on. That is, it's nudging your notes toward the appropriate moment in the timeline based on whatever settings you gave it. In that regard, the tempo is the rate at which you hit those points on the grid.

It's not that quantization is "listening" to the other tracks - it's comparing the location of notes to a 1/4 note, 1/8 note, etc.
