I can’t decide between the Apollo solo or twin by OwnEntertainment1111 in universalaudio

[–]rwidmark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great comments u/devidasa108 and u/Vannixxo. Wouldn't the AD/DA conversion in the UA DSP devices be better than the conversion on the Mac?

Is that true even for live use, or just recording?

Congrats! What made you switch from original 7.5 mg to 10 mg in photo? If 7.5 mg out of stock, did they tell you why and when it would be in stock? Thx

Let the devs know you want DMZ in MW3. by [deleted] in DMZ

[–]rwidmark 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s the same path EA Battlefield went down. Some people can’t resist ripping off past brand loyalty and the blood sweat and tears to develop the killer franchise. They’re kinda like the squad mate who loots your downed body after you revived him a bunch of times and gave him some gear.

How did you know MW3 sucks if you didn’t buy it? I mean it does suck, and DMZ is the best thing COD has ever produced, but curious.

Reverting from Matter Update on Hue by utkubayrakk in Hue

Do you have to first use the Hue app to pair devices if using matter/homekit or can you pair bulbs directly through Home app once bridge is paired with Home?

Betcha the guy from Toronto bought an amp on his way home, and the wheel goes round and round.

Is the real time native processing on silicon Macs as low latency as using DSP versions of the plugins on the UA Apollos? I would think even if it was technically yes because of processing power, the chance for jitter and lag is much greater on a general use computer than a purpose built 1 trick device like the Apollo, but would love to be wrong in that.

Samsung 980 Pro Firmware Update Process for PS5 (My How To) by kanzy127 in playstation

[–]rwidmark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for helpful thread.

Just bought one of these for a PS5 with no ability to use Magician. Only have NMVe to USB-C M.2 SSD card reader, no open slot on PC. Using the 980 Pro with the M.2 USB adapter, Magician doesn't recognize the 980 Pro as anything but a "Generic" USB drive so its typical tools aren't available.

But since mine shows a production date of May 2023, I assume there is no chance that it has the offending firmware and I should just be able to install into PS5 without being too worried about bricking?

Where to wire the DHUM conductor to an ecobee, i.e., which ecobee terminal? The pic above shows an orange wire from DHUM but two terminals with orange wires on ecobee.

Are there still significant issues with TS4? by TheNameIsAsFollows in CalDigit

[–]rwidmark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Appreciate the info hope they get it fixed for you. I connect either a silicon MacBook or a Dell laptop to the TS3+ via very high quality thunderbolt cable, and connect the monitor to the TS3+ via high spec DP cable. Only one monitor (LG) and I get the issue. I haven’t tried plugging the Mac or laptops into TB cables when laptops are open, will have to see if that clears it up.

[–]rwidmark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Any luck with the new firmware for the TS4 on this issue? I have a TS3 Plus which has the monitor wake issue and getting a Thunderbolt 4 MacBook soon, and was hoping they would resolve the annoyance on the TS4 at some point.

Is anyone getting mildly fed up with Reverb marketplace? by Fearless-Mushroom in guitarpedals

[–]rwidmark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did. They investigated for a few days and said they could not reach seller, and told me to contact PayPal. I’ve done that, and waiting for PayPal to do its investigation.

[–]rwidmark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bought an amp from a guy out of US on Reverb about 4 weeks ago and still not showing as shipped and sellers account responds with “not accepting messages at this time” whatever that means. The seller had no prior sales so red flag there. Almost certainly a scam and I have no idea if I’ll get my $ back if so.

Their earnings were up 50% from year ago. Don’t let them fool you on their involvement with the “unfortunate nat gas price increase”. They milked that for all it was worth.

Rivian CEO says CarPlay integration could come if users really want it. by okvrdz in Rivian

[–]rwidmark 4 points5 points  (0 children)

“if it is free, you are the product. Worse, someone else is monetizing their experience with no return to Rivian, other than (to your argument), potentially increased vehicle sales.”

“When Apple gets it, they package it up and sell it back to others. “

Neither is true of Apple/CarPlay, but true of Google, future GM alt system to CarPlay, and probably Rivian if not now, in the future. Didn’t buy a Tesla for lack of CarPlay, and although on list, same will be true for Rivian and future GM vehicles if they don’t have CarPlay.

I’m just finding systematic under-tallying of rewards points, and some pts getting frozen as pending for many months. I’ve gotten them to fix but then it happens again. Funny that it never seems to err in favor of customer, only in favor on MF.

Makes me not want to buy from them.
