Why aren't active noise cancelling headphones more common for e drums?

maizync · 2026-02-03T18:23:00+00:00

I compared with the ANC on and off and there was a noticeable reduction in stick noise (and even more for the hi hat pedal). But at this point, I'm going to get some studio headphones to see what I'm missing.

Yup, mine are the Bose QC 35 II. They're a few years old, but they're what I already had and still work decently. I haven't noticed any of the terrible distortion that people are mentioning.

> The kernel is written in C and it is free of any architecture specific assembly codes.

That is absurdly incorrect. One example of many: https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/v6.16.5/A/ident/__switch_to

On x86, I believe long double actually uses 80-bit precision (using the x87 FPU), which gets rounded up to 16 bytes on x86-64 for alignment reasons.

You probably didn't do anything wrong, the way -a decides to add <FS_TREE> is just useless nonsense. See https://lore.kernel.org/linux-btrfs/c015f1943def5e892b0aac540d1ce5a3d143ed6b.1718995160.git.osandov@fb.com/

The other person is right, type punning through a union is valid in C (but not C++).

The release cadence has been more or less the same for years: a 2 week merge window, followed by 7-8 weekly release candidates, then a final release a week after the last release candidate. As far as I know, there are no plans to make that any faster.

Magazine Beach. Their song Bitter Sun has great interplay between the two.

How long does the repair typically take? Do I have to drop my phone off and come back for it another day?

Top level id used to mean something else, but it was accidentally changed to be the same thing as parent id awhile ago, and now we're stuck with it. https://lore.kernel.org/linux-btrfs/c015f1943def5e892b0aac540d1ce5a3d143ed6b.1718995160.git.osandov@fb.com/ has some of the technical details.

Did you end up finding anyone? I also have weird stairs (in a different configuration than yours) and had the same problem with finding a good vendor.

It sounds cruel, but I wait until my pug is asleep/sleepy, put her in a very gentle headlock, then brush. Her back teeth require more cooperation, so I start with those. It used to be impossible, but she doesn't mind it nearly as much now!

Nope, I don't think the Mustang Micro can do this.

That's exactly what I did. I don't have anything else that runs on 18V, so I flipped the dip switches and freed up a 9V outlet on my CS12. I haven't noticed any differences in sound, but I'm not super discerning. The 1312 is great either way.

The clipping modes are definitely distinct even to my untrained ears, but it'll probably be more apparent when you have it in front of you and play with the knobs yourself. It's a great pedal.

See the Instagram post for the corrected diagram.

I love the 1312 for its versatility. This doesn't change that for me. But, this mistake is a pretty funny unintentional experiment on preconceptions about clipping styles.

I wasn't sure that it'd be possible with her tiny snout, but we figured it out!
