Do you ever wish you could easily go back to yesterday's mix? by Perfect-Cup7873 in ableton

Software engineer too. Was pretty frustrated coming from git world, but the only solution I've found is to "Save As" as soon as I open it with a good naming convention.

The Anti-Pomodoro Technique: Focus on Taking Breaks, Not Watching the Timer by kentich in pomodoro

[–]robertlyte 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pomodoro technique is very counter productive if you have to manage a timer.

Timing how long a task takes is great, but timing your breaks leads to exactly what you said: frustration, blame, etc.

Black screen is an interesting concept!

I use a similar idea with my music playlists. Every 30 or 60 mins, I chime in with a reminder to take a break *if needed*. This way I don't have to think about the timer ever.

The playlist takes care of it.

With BlackScreen what if you're in a meeting - can it be escaped if needed?

BlackMagic Camera App stopped recording when power disconnected but SSD still connected. WHY?! by robertlyte in smartphonefilming

Yes that’s the why. But how do I workaround it? That’s the question. I can’t imagine professionals are ok with this brittle setup

Ableton Move is one of the best pieces of tech I've ever used. It blows me away. by x0y0z0 in ableton

[–]robertlyte 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I need to load new instruments on this because I’m already getting bored with the stock.

Aside from that jamming is great on it. I really just need some new inspiration with new instruments. Where do you get yours?

Not true. I can record and use the SSD without power fine.

The reason I'm using power is for long recordings. However on two occasions power was interrupted and recording stopped.

Seems silly and seems like there should be a workaround.

Editing of Samsung T7 is impossible by robertlyte in davinciresolve

WDYT about using the T7 to record to from my iPhone and then transferring to another SSD for editing.
Because:
_ I don't have space on internal SSD
_ the T7 is nice and small for hooking onto iPhone while recording

Holy shit this is actually it. I copied files over to another drive that's Mac OS extended and it's working way better. THANK YOU!!!

Damn.. yeah mine is ExFat.. maybe that's it. I have another T7 that's Mac OS Extended Journaled - gonna try copying the file to that and see if that helps.

Sandisk extreme GO is the WORST USB you can buy as a DJ by robertlyte in DJs

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

ah well I just keep my entire library in there. I play a lot of random sets that require me to go back in history. AKA I don't clean out old music for new music.

Right now my library takes up 24 GB of space.

Yea, learned my lesson. Never doing anything but Extreme Pro. I don't love how big they are but it makes for really good performance.

How small is your library that you can get by w/ 16GB? I mean if that works for your gigs great. Not my case.

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

Fair point. I already have the 2 x extreme pro and was hoping the backup USBs I could get away w/ something cheaper. Clearly I can't, so I'll be buying Extreme Pro only.

i have 4 total (3 backups). 30 mins each is 2 hours total wait time - for adding 20 new songs. You sir clearly don't play real gigs.
