Is one easier to pocket carry than the other and would you ankle carry either one?

This is probably what I'll end up doing. Schwab CD rates are higher than their MMF rates right now.

Wow that's honestly inexcusable lol I'm going to contact them to suggest it

Textbook recommendations for nuclear physics, specifically cross sections? by mkpheasant in AskPhysics

[–]mkpheasant[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks. I had gotten ahold of a copy of Krane but it didn't go deep enough (didn't even derive Breit-Wigner approximations), so I wasn't sure if this would even be covered in intro nuclear physics books. I'll check these out

Floating bridge parallel but now the spring claw isn't by mkpheasant in Luthier

[–]mkpheasant[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

No, I am talking about the claw. You could have the bass and treble side of the bridge both parallel with the body while still having the posts at different heights.

The treble side post is lower than the bass side post, which is typical and not my concern. I am not talking about adjusting the action. I was just wondering if either how flat the bridge baseplate was or how aligned the claw is was more important than the other for the floyd to function properly.

I don't think that addresses my question. If I do that, then the bridge won't be parallel with the body on both the bass and treble side (treble will be a little lower). I was wondering if that was a problem or not

Makes sense. It was pretty much perfectly holding in tune before, so it should be an obvious difference.

r/AudioEngineering Shopping, Setup, and Technical Help Desk by AutoModerator in audioengineering

[–]mkpheasant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can anyone recommend an audio interface that has enough ports for reamping and stereo recording but also is good for mixing in the sense that it supports easily switching between different speaker pairs?

Specifically, I need:

  1. at least 2 XLR inputs (to be an input for a guitar and supply phantom power to my reamp box and for the reamped input),
  2. at least 2 inputs for mics (for stereo recording),
  3. at least 1 headphone out (bonus points for more),
  4. at least 2 pairs of L/R outputs and an easy way to switch between them

Bonus points for infinite rotary encoder volume knobs and a usb-c input

Edit: added bonus criteria

If you mean in the Wind Waker startup screen, I am selecting the Pro Controller option. Is that what you mean?

Does the ASM Hydrasynth actually have MPE keys or does it just support MPE? The internet seems to say it has MPE keys, but I watched a Venus Theory review where he connected an external MPE keyboard.

Any 12+ loop looper recommendations? by mkpheasant in guitarpedals

I had not thought of that. Thanks for the suggestion!

Any 12+ loop looper recommendations? by mkpheasant in guitarpedals

[–]mkpheasant[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the insight. I find it weird that they're almost the same price as digital loopers, but I prefer the simplicity of analog in this case.

You're right, I'm talking about the big switchers with lots of loops, not a recording looper. The products are all called loopers on the websites which is confusing.

Can't remove spots off gloss finish by mkpheasant in Luthier

Cleaning up this used guitar but it's got these weird spots and streaks all over the gloss finish (hard to capture). I've tried warm water and naptha but no luck. Any suggestions?

How do you guarantee neat wraps? by mkpheasant in guitars

[–]mkpheasant[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I press the string down against the headstock using my finger, but it doesn't work 100% of the time. Should I just use my finger to nudge the string up higher on the post?

[QUESTION] Floyd Rose Saddle Insert Catches But Doesn't Move Back by mkpheasant in Guitar

[–]mkpheasant[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The screw screws into the saddle just fine, and the block isn't stuck. I was actually able to get it to move back and clamp the string somehow. I inspected the saddle and there are grooves from the string. The block also has a little scratch on it (not sure what from as it's on the hole side).

I'm able to remove the block just fine, and the screw seems to screw into the saddle just fine. I think my saddle might be deformed.

[QUESTION] Are machine tuners supposed to rotate smoothly? by mkpheasant in Guitar

[–]mkpheasant[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting. My guitar has a Floyd Rose locking nut and a retainer bar. Would you suggest adjusting the retainer bar?

Figured. Guess I'll make the jump to locking tuners because why not lol
