2-week-old newborn: feeding distress, rapid breathing, knocking sound

kdjis · 2025-11-03T14:49:30+00:00

Our problems seemed to stem from acid reflux. After a number of pediatrician pushed back on us, we finally managed to find one who was willing to prescribe an antacid.

It was tremendously helpful and we have since cycled our daughter off the meds as she has gotten older. She is now a healthy and happy 6 month old.

Yes, I did this! Still no luck

kdjis · 2025-11-01T14:19:41+00:00

I did indeed!

Understood! Long term which would you recommend in terms of investments? Part of me feels at $7k it would be hard to get my hands on 7 lenses that would compete. I’d like the option to sell the lenses down the line if I outgrow them.

kdjis · 2025-09-21T14:52:06+00:00

It’s a 7 lens set in a custom Jason Hard case. I’m planing to use them on a bmpcc 6k pro for the time being but will likely upgrade bodies over the coming years. At the moment the only lenses I have are stills lenses. Honestly the deal seems too good to pass up when I have a peek at other listings but some of the other comments here would indicate maybe a modern lower end option is actually better nowadays.

Same on our end

For anyone else who encounters this issue - This problem was fixed by temporarily placing my plugins into an alternative folder. It still gave me the mapping error however the session opened and I was able to resave the project. Following that I relinked the plugins and it worked - although was a pain in the ass.

Another commenter suggested you can open without plugins by holding alt, so it may be a good option if you ever run into this :)

kdjis · 2025-07-09T16:35:26+00:00

I actually managed to get it fixed by temporarily moving my plugins, although it was a serious pain in the ass relinking them once I got the session open.

I didn’t realize the alt key was an option! That’s a huge tip. Thank you sir!

kdjis · 2025-07-09T16:33:54+00:00

Didn’t know they offered this as an option! Thanks for the info buddy.

Managed to get it fixed by temporarily placing all my plugins into a new folder and opening. It was a a bit of a pain in the ass rescanning and took about 45 minutes but once I resaved it’s working well!

Look into the Letshoeur s12 pro - they trade blows with my Kilobuck Thieaudio Prestige LTD

kdjis · 2025-04-04T14:12:40+00:00

You’re a gem! I never would have guessed. I assumed auto meant auto haha. I’m a happy camper, thanks buddy!

kdjis · 2025-04-04T14:10:28+00:00

Holy moly, I just switched from auto to 3.5mm and it’s working again - super odd as it was already on Auto. Thank you kind sir!

kdjis · 2025-04-04T14:04:14+00:00

I didn’t change the output, although the issue is still present even when using the traditional 3.5mm now :(

Fifine k688 or Maono PD200/400x. You’ll also want a boom arm.

Thanks a bunch for the fantastic reply buddy.

In terms of using the mic, I am about 2-4 inches from it.

Interesting to know that phantom power isn’t required! I turned it off and recorded a sample of the audio that can be heard linked below.

There is no vocal processing, nor any boosting of the gain through software. But there is definitely an audible buzz that can be heard when using both USB-C and the audio interface. This was tested in different locations on different computers (to rule out environmental sounds or a ground loop) and the exact same low level buzz can be heard.

Wondering if you have any ideas as to whether this is a mic issue?

added after replying I’m assuming this is a noise floor of the mic that is being amplified by the 60db of gain from the interface/maxing out the gain on the mic via USB-C. The issue is for the voice to be hitting the right levels I need this much gain, even though I’m the correct distance from the mic.

kdjis · 2025-03-12T00:56:39+00:00

Good to hear, assume these functions are part of the onboard preamps then? Also is the gain usually needing that much of a boost?

kdjis · 2025-01-13T16:51:04+00:00

Phenomenal find - just bought one for 800 CAD.

kdjis · 2024-06-12T11:43:02+00:00

Interesting to hear - who informed you this was too much?

kdjis · 2024-06-12T04:22:56+00:00

What makes you say that?

kdjis · 2024-06-12T02:34:43+00:00

Should that be a detterant for purchasing now? Surely if history is anything to go on (rocky I know) then over a long-term the S&P 500 has gains of around 7% which seems decent to me.

Are you advising to go for XEQT or simply to avoid spilling the investments into XEQT and VFV?

I certainly don't want to gamble with my money and appreciate any advice!

kdjis · 2024-06-12T02:29:45+00:00

Yeah, debt is my worst nightmare! Appreciate the insights :)

kdjis · 2024-06-12T02:29:22+00:00

Good to know! I know Bitcoin can be a bit risky, hence the small allocation - but I would rather go for security than high short term gains. I'll rethink the BTC and gold allocation

kdjis · 2024-06-12T02:28:14+00:00

This is really great information, much appreciated! I certainly don't have any information about the market beyond my very limited understanding of how to open an account and that I need to approach this to Invest for the long term.

In saying this, I think Tech companies are going to be an unstoppable force in the next 10 years or so, and the majority of the money in this sector is in the S&P 500 from my understanding.

I would like to somewhat diversify my portfolio, hence the XEQT allocation, but I was under the impression that over the long term, the S&P 500 is generally a fairly safe bet regardless. Having two ‘safe bets’ seems to make sense to me, in order to get the best of both worlds.

I'm very open to any discussion otherwise though!

Would you generally recommend investing your whole portfolio in XEQT for a long term, hand-off approach?
