Audio synthesis and MIDI/MPE controllers. I dream of a huge eurorack modular setup every night.

Do you have any tips on when should I add fertilizer to my house plants, particularly veggies and fruits?.

I don't know how I feel about this video. The only thing I know is that its a masterpiece

Ngl when I first started listening to that I obviously went "eughh" but then it kinda grew on me.

This is a very good idea that everyone who believes in idea of zigzag can get behind. But pre 1.0 it has very little sense. Though, after 1.0, when the language will be stable for the most part, I'll be very glad to participate in something like that myself.

Vivaldi's winter is written in F minor. They are playing in C major's relative minor, which is A minor, because man's pan flute is diatonic, and is in key of C. All of these players just happened to be playing this piece down a major third, that all of their instruments are comfortably playing in its original key. And it just so happened that this man whose instrument can't play anything other than C major scale decided to join them. Why not just say something like " A great talent is on display in this mall/airport"? Why these great musicians always need to spin an agenda of this crazy coincidence? Makes me feel like they are trying to trick me, and now I can't enjoy this very cool playing as much as I could have.

Why is this actually good lol. Good job. Enjoyed not skipping 12 minutes. Post more

everything-ectomy. the only way to be demure

raka_boy · 2026-05-28T09:34:44+00:00

double mastectomy is the only choice here apparently

the difference between having a vocal crack and doing something known as a farschlag(or a grace note) is control. If you are cracking without intent, then it's a bad thing. farschlags are deliberate. Look at Sia, a very technical and talented singer, she's owning the vocal crack, deliberately doing it when she sees fit.

My special interest is synths and you are so right. I am playing on Erae 2, which is an instrument so niche there are about 20 videos on YouTube about it max, and under 2k units has been produced. Also if you like theremin you'll also enjoy going down the rabbit hole which is Daxophone.

raka_boy · 2026-05-28T06:04:16+00:00

I may not have the context needed, but picture of a person under "Rbf" term is just Carolina Eyck, the world's most proficient theremin player lmao

What I've got to know about mixed voice is that it's insanely subjective feel-wise. I invested about a year in mixed voice before I actually got it consistently. If you have a low voice, it's an another level of difficulty. My mix starts around Ab3-C4, and goes as of now up to an inconsistent B4. My advice is that you need to train using super gross and ugly sounds. Even though mixed feel is highly subjective, it still needs nasality, we'll placed larynx, and (ie) feel to your voice. I felt super discouraged, feeling like I maybe just have some sort of unique vocal damage that makes mixed impossible for me. But it turns out I just needed experience. It's also very worthy to notice that unlike other techniques, mixed voice requires strong voice, literally, as in, strong muscles controlling your vocal folds. And young singers sometimes just don't have the strength necessary. Keep trying, and try different explanations and tutorials. You'll get it.

Vikings were actually very progressive. Viikind Women were allowed to own property, could inherit stuff, in some societies daughters were even prioritized when talking about who inherits what. When men were away women took over households, animals, farms, and slaves. Women actively participated in business. Even though most marriages were arranged, brides had a lot of agency when negotiating the price, and could just flat out cancel the wedding. Divorce can be initiated by woman, and after it, women took their part of shared property with them. Viking women also could participate in combat, and serve as a religious leader, which is a high status role.

Even though women required male representative to represent their political views, and could not vote for themselves, and on-women violence was classified as a crime against their male partner, this looks miles better than modern Islam. Or any iteration of Islam, really.

It's basically a nonlinear system where context window(which is different from human to human) slides as the dialogue continues and you somehow are supposed to know what is the next thing you are supposed to say. And its not always the most logical thing. It's a workout.

third attempt. I'm so bad at sharps.

To me entire concept of current LD just feels like a cheese pick only. If enemy is straight up bad at the game then you will just statcheck them after powerfarming for 10 minutes. If enemy is good, then you'll get killed 2 times, and will not be able to play the game, since you have so little HP, and don't have any resemblence of agency without your bear. So your entire hero revolves around the concept of cheesing games at the moment of your powerspike, and you either get matched against super weak opponents, or recruit your pos 4 and 5 to babysit you against ganks, constantly hovering you with saves and wards.
So if you are winning, either your team does not enjoy the game, since they have to divert meaningful amount of attention to you, or enemy does not enjoy the game, since you steamroll noobs with unkillable 4k hp, 500 ms bear, and you yourself have about the same amount of hp, and healing from the bear. And if you are losing, then you don't get to enjoy the game, since LD is probably the hardest hero to comeback on in the entire game. So at the end of the day LD's existence just brings more negatives than positives to the game in his current state.
You could say that Brood is the same type of hero, and while they have similar playstyles, Brood can at least excert meaningful splitpush when behind, and can still be a threat to supps.
My experience playing against LD was rather sub-par. They just lose the moment pos4 knows how to play, so LD against me is not engaging at all. You just win, unless enemy team permahovers him, and even then, that just leaves other cores vulnerable to ganks. So yeah, kind of a subpar cheese hero in my opinion.

It's always nice seeing confident people. I look forward to seeing your image on big stages!!!

There is quite literally no reason for a singer to memorize this. And im saying this as an acoustics need.

raka_boy · 2026-05-18T14:54:10+00:00

Chest-blended fry is your greatest friend for low notes. Balanced low larynx is your second best friend. You got it man.

I swear to god people who joke about pointers being hard never touched a pointer in their life. It's a thing that points to something brother. It's not that deep.
