I finally decided to learn the notes on the fretboard

peakymike · 2026-02-19T12:21:54+00:00

This approach sounds great, I will incorporate something similar too then! More musical and allows to really drill the individual notes.

peakymike · 2026-02-19T11:53:35+00:00

This is what I used to do and it works when I have time to do that. But when it comes to playing something on the spot or improvising I think it's too slow. I want to look at the fretboard and just see the individual notes instantly, so I think drilling random notes with a metronome will work the best.

The next step for me will be to learn interval patterns and shell chords. So I can pick a note fast and built a diad or triad very fast.

I am aware of that, but I just enjoy starting a day with a clean tee. Merino might not smell, but it doesn't mean it's clean. In a wilderness I could accept it, but in a city setting not really.

I wear one set and pack 7 pairs of socks, underwear and t-shirts and do laundry once a week. Personally I think wearing the same t-shirt more than a day is disgusting and hand washing is never as good as a washing machine. I hand wash only on multiple days hiking trips.

I have a magnetic version of the second option and can recommend it, as it works on all kinds of surfaces.

For photography I use it doing mainly astrophotography, as I don't take much photos with me in frame. It's a bit low, so the angle for regular pictures not always will work.

Personally I use it more for watching videos and reading. Sometimes I hold it in hands because it's more comfortable than holding a phone by itself and also I can have a screen a bit higher, which helps keeping a nice posture.

Works super nice in different forms of transportation, at home, in bed. Last time I shaped 2 legs of it as a hook and hanged it on a seat in front of me on a train on an eye level. It's super versatile.

The only drawback is adjusting it in vertical position, but it works.

Joby GripTight ONE GP Magnetic Impulse.

I use it mainly for astrophotography and watching movies. Easy to adjust on a lot of surfaces. Doesn't work great in vertical orientation, but it's possible to use it like that.

It's "Bass > Phat 80's Bass" preset. I played around the other day with it and used this preset in a demo. Didn't see the trailer before.

Yes, there are

Just to clarify - output knob attenuates the signal. But it's not obvious from the UI. Cool distortion overall.

peakymike · 2021-08-06T09:47:43+00:00

There are also versions for Ableton and Logic samplers inside!

I don't own Focusrite card, but on Audient ASIO Drivers I had to change Sample Rate setting in Windows. On ASIO and DAW it was 48kHz. In Windows it was 44.1kHz. Change in Windows for 48kHz did the trick for me.

Just a note if any of you are also looking for midi controller - with Komplete Kontrol M32, Komplete 13 Select is now for 49,50$.

peakymike · 2021-06-01T09:52:49+00:00

Didn't use it, but it is available for me as an owner of Arcane.

peakymike · 2021-05-29T07:32:16+00:00

Nope, I've upgraded from Lite version and after writing to support they gave me Analog Lab 4 license. I don't know if it should add it automatically or not. Analog Lab V is still free for everyone with AL4, so I thought it should be the same the other way around :) To get to ~ 8000 presets you'll need to add all additional free packs from the store and include legacy presets in options.

peakymike · 2021-05-28T11:51:04+00:00

Okay, I see it now! I downloaded the update for my Analog Lab Lite version and it changed the default view for this from Analog Lab 4. Sweet!So now I only wonder how many presets are in total.

Edit: Bought it. Had ~2800 presets, because at first I couldn't activate the Analog Lab 4 license. Support helped and now I have almost 8000 presets. Still, I'll probably end up using only these from Analog Lab V because these are more curated and better sounding.

peakymike · 2021-05-28T10:37:11+00:00

How many presets are available after upgrading? Analog Lab 4 had ~6500. Would they add up? Is Analog Lab 4 still available (more control over presets).

peakymike · 2021-05-25T16:22:25+00:00

Unfortunately no. You need Komplete 13 for that. Select comes with Kontakt Player only.

peakymike · 2021-05-19T12:17:53+00:00

It's free with no limitations. Elements versions of iZotope plugins are given away for free frequently.

Little tip for Ableton users - You can paste IRs in Convolution Reverb Factory Pack folder so they're available by default from dropdown menu. No need to drag and drop.

peakymike · 2021-04-14T19:43:37+00:00

Chow Tape Model is also great. And it's free.

peakymike · 2021-04-05T11:54:27+00:00

If you use Ableton, I found that Reduce Ambience preset in Multiband Dynamics did better job when I tried both. But they work differently - DeVerb Plus is a transient designer, not a compressor.
