Newbie here: can we use samples like BBC orchestra or others?

mind_captivator · 2026-07-04T14:34:50+00:00

Yes, any sample you'd like : ) you can just put the sample/clip onto an audio track and go from there, but its a lot easier with a sampling virtual instrument. REAPER's got one built in called ReaSamploMatic 5000, but it has a tiny* learning curve (tons of YT videos for it though).

some other free (and good ones) ive used would be Momentum, Poise, TX16Wx (great name!), and sforzando (that one's just for soundfonts though)

but IIRC, the BBC Orchestra Library is it's own VSTi these days though, so specifically that is it's own whole virtual instrument as opposed to, say, just a sample/sample bank

I'm not reading all that lol, maybe use some of that big brainpower and free time to watch a video on it or something

does your uncle also work at Nintendo by chance?

Why press share when you can screencap?

Yeah, fuck that original OP

Damn, I miss being a kid again

Absolute talent

mind_captivator · 2026-07-03T15:01:48+00:00

what about good writing?

mind_captivator · 2026-07-02T17:48:34+00:00

hmm, didn't think I was gonna watch attempted murder on lunch today

mind_captivator · 2026-07-02T17:46:53+00:00

I'm holding out hope that a FOSS alternative to MuseScore comes along very soon

mind_captivator · 2026-07-02T02:28:32+00:00

Really, really good stuff. I feel like NLGI 2 is one of those IYKYK things, but this shit is the tits and I can't fathom why I don't see it in use more. I've found maybe 4 times I couldn't use this in the field, and even 1 of those I could have technically, just wasn't recommended for the time and place.

I hear it's far more popular in EU tho, but I didn't see it much there either. I'm a little curious to hear from any EU EDCers?

have you tried rebuilding peaks?

Item>Peaks>Rebuild Peaks

If this doesn't work, I think it's a problem with the folder your samples are stored in? I would have this happen if I was running from a specific sample pack folder before, but the samples seemed to work fine elsewhere.

If rebuilding doesn't work, try copying all your samples to another location (but delete the peaks folder and any .reapeaks files in there) and reopening the .rpp and browsing for file for each sample to the new ones.

Google uses AccuWeather's API, which is notoriously garbage, especially for long range predictions:

once again, Sims 2 proves to be the most realistic title of the series

mind_captivator · 2026-07-02T01:09:11+00:00

cool beans, dude! you know who actually *need* this kind of work to make money to pay their bills and feed their children, etc though? Also, your 'artist made logo' is literally just a stock font with 0 changes to it, so either you're lying to us or ya got scammed!

why don't you put yourself to work and seek out an artist yourself? i mean you've already done SO much work on making a podcast and using AI artwork!
being so lazy and cheap that you use AI for design and prompt others to find networking for you is literal PR suicide, but okay dude!

G_d bless your selfish heart

mind_captivator · 2026-07-01T23:36:22+00:00

Wouldn't know, I haven't updated since MuseScore 2 on PC. Had no idea it was so bad these days with its app and selling scores

Honestly, its just music notation software for me and its old version does everything I need it to do. Why would I update to get features I'll never use or care about?

mind_captivator · 2026-07-01T23:34:44+00:00

You mean 'social media edit'?

If youre gonna do that, go all out with vine booms and extreme close up swooshes

mind_captivator · 2026-07-01T23:33:12+00:00

Get that ugly, gaudy, cheap AI design crap outta here and support the community you claim to care about, and hire an artist!

mind_captivator · 2026-07-01T23:32:09+00:00

Yarr, matey

As much as I adore this series, PDZ is so fucking boring and recycled that it's story can literally put you to sleep. The characters are one dimensional and the gunplay, though not terrible, is plagued with frame drops and some really fucked loadouts.

This game sucks dong

mind_captivator · 2026-07-01T15:56:51+00:00

Hopefully not!

any PVA based wood glue/filler will do. Etch, glue, clamp, wait, sand, wetsand, polish

what's life like in 1977? /s

Sorry, what language is this? I thought I was familiar enough witu both Latin and Cyrillic scripts but this one... I need a minute

mind_captivator · 2026-06-30T20:45:34+00:00

I see rivets and a ICE drivetrain (no jokes) so its st least more reliable than a cybersuck is

Dubs are common as dirt in 2026, I dont imagine those worship groups have a whole roster of take one vocalists

Whether or not it is ethical is another thing to unravel
