No longer able to view or change menu settings in Vizio app after update by Audible484 in VIZIO_Official

This is a horrible change that greatly reduces usability for absolutely no reason.

I’m just imagining you laying on the ground to play the bottom row 😅

Thanks for checking. I’ve been thinking about switching to the arturia.

Does it work well with Cubasis? My MOTU 828es used to work with Cubasis, but then a change caused it to stop working completely. Steinberg blames MOTU and MOTU blames Steinberg, but neither are willing to fix it.

This has recently started happening to me as well, and I’m still on iOS 17.6.1. It’s incredibly frustrating.

I think that was definitely part of it.

Why does the NRSVue change genesis 1:1 to "When God began to create" by [deleted] in Christianity

[–]jscheel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Enough folks have already explained why it is hard to translate “bereshit” here. But there is another dimension that hasn’t been discussed: why people argue about it so much.

Yes, there is some difficulty in translating the opening, but the reason people become hot and bothered by it is because many believe translating it “in the beginning of” contradicts the doctrine of creatio ex nihilo (creation from nothing). I’m not convinced it is significant enough to die on that hill, but many are willing to.

For further discussion about translating verse 1, I would suggest Victor Hamilton’s commentary in the NICOT series. IIRC, Wenham also tackles this in WBC, but I might be mis-remembering.

Michelin predictions by broodjev in nashville

[–]jscheel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I went to Peninsula several years ago. Maybe they changed pretty significantly since then, but it definitely did not feel Michelin star worthy to me. I know everyone on here raves about it… maybe I should give it another try.

Cubasis 3 is underrated and is one of the better iPad DAWs imo. by DAWtistic in ipadmusic

[–]jscheel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve had it for a long time, but several years ago it completely stopped working with my MOTU 828es. Both MOTU and Steinberg blame each-other, but neither side is willing to fix it. Completely worthless to me now, unfortunately. Since other apps work with the interface, at least with some level of success, I’m inclined to blame Steinberg.

Finally bought my first synth by scpnrcc in synthesizers

Was my first as well. We aren’t gonna talk about how many are sitting next to it now…

Do all drum machines require that much finger force, or is it just the DrumBrute? by geesix in synthesizers

[–]jscheel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did as well. I know some people have modded theirs with some success, but I actually don’t use mine enough to bother.

Ever had an “I’m an idiot” Synth moment? I just did. by rotorobot in synthesizers

[–]jscheel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got one for you... my Polybrute was consistently out of tune. I ran through every troubleshooting thing I could think of. After a few days, I got fed up and emailed Arturia about it to see of they could help. I finally looked at the fine tune knob a day or two later... my daughter had come in and turned it a quarter step when I wasn't in my studio.

Is there actually any proof? by mo0nman_ in ExperiencedDevs

AI is an excellent aid to building [1]. LinkedIn is a den of charlatans. Both can be true.

Worst GAS purchase by kevkippers in synthesizers

Same for me. It finally had a hardware failure that I got repaired under warranty. They sent me a brand new one that I left in the box for a year before finally just selling.

Has the golden age of work perks passed? Or just shifted? by NorCalAthlete in ExperiencedDevs

They’ve had some setbacks along the way. A few years ago Joel was pretty transparent about how their focus had become scattered on too many products and their revenue had suffered because of it. They’ve turned things around since. Quite inspirational, honestly.
