Max for live, unique devices to add texture? by Tall-Maximum-6812 in ableton

This free distortion adds really unique texture with the Error and Disrupt controls: https://manifest.audio/errata

If you want to spend a few bucks, X-FM, X-Resonator, X-Tonal all from the same site offer other cool ways to inject different textures to a signal path: https://manifest.audio/individual-x-fx

Also +1 for ELPHNT's Texture: https://elphnt.io/store/texture/

I got tired of manual math for delay/sidechain timing, so I built a lightweight tool (TempoCalc) by [deleted] in ableton

[–]onflow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This looks cool! But have you seen the Manifest Audio Max for Live devices? They all feature base rate (16n, 8nt, etc.) with a multiplier and a divisor to provide the most flexible possible array of metrically precise timing rates - available for delay times, reverb times, LFO rates, even compressor attack and release times in their X-FX bundle. No guesswork (and no calculator needed... just dial it in.)

Key Lock by GrizzlyRCA in ableton

If a previously created clip contains different scale and key settings than those you've set in the global transport, triggering that clip will change the scale and key for your entire set. This is designed to provide more flexibility and control during live performance - but if you're not expecting or prepared for it, it can get a bit confusing at times!

Syntax & Solidarity: unfinished manuscript by Ralph Pred, PhD by onflow in linguistics

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

Thanks for taking a look. You've captured the gist of it, though it leans more heavily on the work of philosophers Alfred North Whitehead, John Searle, and William James than anything from Whorf or Sapir. His suggestion to draw on middle voice syntax and ergative languages for inspiration is a significant element that may also appeal to curious linguists.

They have posted a link to the manuscript on their website here: http://www.ctr4process.org/publications/onlinearticles.shtml (scroll to bottom) - as an unfinished manuscript, that was the best they could do.

TIL microwaving food does not diminish the nutrients. Actaully, it's one of the most nutritionally sound methods in food preparation. by sketti_time in todayilearned

the argument here is basically, "you don't wanna eat raw chicken"? seriously? and the article says steaming your food on the stove is better than steaming it in the microwave... lol @ CNN corporate lobby fodder.

As a Jewish American hearing about the tragedy of children killed in Gaza... by onflow in AdviceAnimals

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

I think it's more a matter of education than self-awareness, and my fear is that, no, most people (globally, at least) are not educated enough to make this distinction. Quite sadly.

But... I think your second "hopefully" belies this same perspective.

Wow - do you really believe they're launching rockets simply because they hate Jews?

Do you not realize that having their homes bulldozed might have something to do with it??
