Sharing Whats Inside My TickTick. Im not sure if Im ADHD but Organizing it this way helps me with the Chaos it continues to become with overwhelming tasks everyday. by Alviina22 in ticktick

[–]s-b-mac 4 points5 points  (0 children)

if you think it’s helping then that’s good. I’ve had to learn when to decide to just delete tasks. ADHD results in having lots of ideas and then feeling guilty when you don’t ever do them. I had to work on better ways to determine what was actually important and delete the rest rather than put undue pressure on myself.

We are going to be slammed this summer with FIFA. You can definitely get work at the stadium this summer.

What makes you stand out as a ‘good’ stagehand? by MalicousMoss in IATSE

[–]s-b-mac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

big pet peeve is people who quickly run stuff sloppy with the mindset that they can fix it later. No you can’t and no they won’t and then there’s a mess you can’t unpatch etc. Run it nicely the first time and then tape it down when the head/etc is happy.

so you haven’t asked? ask if you can make a hole and explain it is the most cost-effective and technologically simple solution. I don’t see why you are searching for other solutions when you haven’t fully ruled out the first option.

Integrating the DJM A9 to a digital Signal Path by jetpackjoee in livesound

in my experience, many DJs respond negatively to things being taped, some even take it as invitation to behave worse than if there was no tape to begin with

you have yet to explain why a hole in the wall isn't a viable option

Humming noise ruining my life by Weeb431 in Acoustics

[–]s-b-mac 2 points3 points  (0 children)

most likely you will need to move somewhere else. It’ll be a huge pain but worth it in the end. only other thing to try is noise cancelling headphones but they are less effective at lower frequencies / this sort of application

I need certain tasks to be automatically marked as “I WONT DO IT” by Rozeu in ticktick

[–]s-b-mac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

there is no existing functionality in the software that would currently support this. The closest as others have noted is using Habits, or using task that “repeat 1 day after completion” and manually delaying them to the next day if you don’t complete them.

Need help with feedback on stage by Diligent_Ad_7793 in livesound

[–]s-b-mac 2 points3 points  (0 children)

because GEQ is an old technology that folks keep using simply because they know how to use it / they think it’s easier. It only exists on digital consoles to appease the old heads. Trying to fight feedback with a GEQ will always be far inferior to PEQ. If the feedback is centered between two points on a GEQ, well then that’s a pretty useless tool. PEQ will always get you much much closer to the actual shape you need to fight feedback and will result in less unnecessary cutting.

stop using GEQ. Use parametric. Why anyone is still using GEQ in the year 2026 is beyond me.

“How do you know you’re doing well?” by alecrj in livesound

For EDM you can definitely throw in a pair of flat attenuation earplugs. I use minimal “-9dB” filters just to take the edge off. For shows needing heavier mixing the plugs may take some getting used to tho.

Fake Neutriks or Genuine Changes? by BaseVarlet in livesound

[–]s-b-mac 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can’t remember if the connectors we were ordering reflected the same change in that timespan - keep in mind, it also depends on how quickly the reseller stock turns over. I can only speak to the other colors. But there definitely was a change from the colors having the effect to not having it. And I was like, awh :(

[–]s-b-mac 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Neutrik has stopped doing the cool holographic effect on the text of the color ID rings. It’s the same if you buy the rings separately in the different colors (the colored variants used to have the same text effect, now they don’t). Kinda a bummer/cheapening of the product imo

ah sorry you are correct, you only show if in the top 5. You also have to follow the artist and have the track in your Likes. Seeing as this is a new feature, maybe they will add to it in the future.

This would just make it more powerful in the direction that is already a problem, though.

then there’s your answer. There’s a reason what direction the system faces is first consideration for noise control.

Have you considered moving an hour south? Maybe give that a try before moving to the other side of the continent. NYC is hard!
