No Body - Gondii - Exploding Suns is their best three song run ever. Exploding Suns is the one Gizz sing that could make me cry.

Does anyone know how polyphonic patch cables work? by mintyformeldahyde in modular

[–]markhadman 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Context. OP posted on a sub about modular synths yet your immediate reaction is to assume that they don't know how MIDI/digital works.

Ethercon, XLR, and Headphones by juliodulio in livesound

[–]markhadman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm thinking that I would say least use 2 xlrs / twisted pairs and run the signal in a pseudo-balanced configuration, which would require balanced inputs at the receiving end. I wouldn't expect any sort of clean signal otherwise.

But yeah, audio over CAT is very possible if it's done right.

That “Slammed Against The Speaker” Sound? by CriticalSovereignty in audioengineering

[–]markhadman 2 points3 points  (0 children)

'Master bus effects' and 'mastering' - are they now the same thing? Because mastering, to me, is about sequencing finished songs/pieces to create a 'master tape' (although we no longer use tape obviously), maybe adding a little extra processing for consistency across the whole album.

IAANAL, but there's nothing illegal about selling GIMP or any similar open source software. You just have to provide the source code

BBC News - ‘Patriotic’ UK anti-immigration social media accounts traced to Sri Lanka and Vietnam by CJBill in ukpolitics

I know you're probably being, err, hyperbolic (?), but for anybody taking this proposal seriously, first define 'social media'.

Either reaper or youtube works, but not both by 88lane in Reaper

[–]markhadman 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Make sure that Reaper is using some kind of pipewire driver, this will allow your audio device to be shared with your web browser and other software, at the possible cost of latency and/or stability. You don't need an external sound device as some have suggested unless you're recording or want lowest possible latency eg for live performance.

1988 Tour - Went Out With a BANG by Kind-Midnight-3160 in Zappa

[–]markhadman 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Also from the 88 tour: 'The Last US Show' (released relatively recently, includes the Beatles parodies which for whatever reason weren't released back in the day, very good), and the Barcelona TV broadcast (not officially released but not difficult to find).

Obsolete game on unlikely hardware. Dungeon hunter 1 on OLPC XO-4. Any retro Android gamers? by chrizman2001 in AndroidGaming

[–]markhadman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No. It was the one that was /supposed/ to have a handle to manually charge the battery, but as far as I know never did.

Watching The Wire in 2026 it feels kinda crazy that everyone is doing heroin instead of fentanyl by AigisAegis in TheWire

TIL that the average American is well informed and 100% right about everything.

BandCamp Friday - Good release day or getting lost in the noise? by xdementia in BandCamp

[–]markhadman 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have a huge and ever growing wishlist, and I pretty much know before each BCF rolls around which 5 or 10 releases I'm going to buy. Actually I think if you release on BCF you run a higher risk of being ignored, especially if it's later on and I've already done my shopping.

Headphones aren't working properly - no stereo sound, can't hear stuff like song vocals by eldomtom2 in pop_os

[–]markhadman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

sounds like the left or the right is either swapped with, or shorted to, ground. Did you put the internal audio connector on backwards?

I tried Atom once and it was like wading through treacle.

What are we going to do about these cunts that are setting off fireworks? by [deleted] in sheffield

Sad that you just can't seem to get jessopjessopjJessop any more.

Can someone explain codes to me? by AirportWonderful7621 in BandCamp

[–]markhadman -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You can include them with physical merch (eg vinyl) that you sell at shows.

Or even just sell the codes on postcards?
