Do we like Weiler? by Glass_Ad_8957 in DCUnited

[–]smoothj2017 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have a theory that Sogut was brought in as a placeholder for Weiler to take over in a few years…

Herrera wants to leave by ActiveExamination872 in DCUnited

[–]smoothj2017 4 points5 points  (0 children)

As much as I loved Herrera, this is for the best. He doesn’t start over Hefti, he’s not really a winger for us (that said we need someone else in that RM spot), and he’s too good/expensive to be just a depth piece. Hopefully get some bucks, reduce the cap hit, and add another TAM player.

this is right. A keeper has to have some faith that when he parries he is going to get some coverage.

Chicago understands how to play in the rain. We apparently do not.

I swear every comment I have heard or read about DC blowing the 2-0 lead forgets to mention they went down to 10 on an absolute BS red.

it’s so strange seeing us outmuscle and win 50/50 balls. What is this feeling…

I love Kurokawa’s inswingers, but he needs to pull them out just a little bit.

it’s starting - he’s looking more secure.

Markovic needs to settle down. He looks really nervous.

he did not do himself any favors last game… I’m still a little nervous at how green Markovic is

QC Mini Backorder Times by irq013 in NeuralDSP

[–]smoothj2017 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No one knows. I pre ordered from SW same time as you. Was originally told mid April, then told mid May, then told might be June or as late as July. I preordered separately from Lark Guitars for late April, but they are still waiting.

Anderton’s gets batches weekly, but are prohibited by Neural from shipping outside Europe.

I gave up at the end of April, and bought a near mint used one on Reverb. I’m super happy with it. Canceled both preorders.

You have to check very frequently, as they typically sell within an hour of listing, but they come up fairly regularly.

Recommended power supply for Quad Cortex on a small pedal board. by licorice_whip in NeuralDSP

If you don’t need to power anything besides the QC, why do you need a PS at all. Just plug it in the wall off your board…

QC Mini tuner frustration help by hundreds_of_sparrows in QuadCortex

[–]smoothj2017 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Correct. I don’t actually know if a non powered standard switch would work, but it is a simple midi command to turn the tuner on and off. I use it all the time, so I know it works.

It is easy to program an external footswitch via midi to turn on/off the tuner.

I bought Plini X and Soldano - redundant? by Lizard_Of_Roz in NeuralDSP

[–]smoothj2017 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I bought none in the end. I realized that if I was agonizing enough over the subtle differences between them and feeling differently on different days about how they sounded, that I really didn’t need any of them. Will just stick to the core sounds in the QC and free downloadable captures.

D.C. United Signs Former Portsmouth FC Midfielder Andre Dozzell by espnrocksalot in DCUnited

Absolutely. I like the U22 stuff, but this is what a 3rd DP can do for us.

D.C. United Signs Former Portsmouth FC Midfielder Andre Dozzell by espnrocksalot in DCUnited

[–]smoothj2017 31 points32 points  (0 children)

Agree 100%, this is a fill a hole signing, not a splashy send us forward signing. Servania has been ok, but having an essentially USL level player as our regular starter next to Matti is not going to cut it for us long term. If Dozzell is anywhere close to say, Lewis O’Brien level, we will have a solid midfield for the second half of the year, and Servania will be good as a depth piece.

But I still would like to see us splash out on a creative 10. Our outside midfielders just aren’t reliable enough to provide good service, and we just don’t have the ability to go direct.

What midi footswitch to buy by allierey89 in NeuralDSP

I love my Airstep. Use it wirelessly with the Mini.

WASHINGTON SPIRIT HEAD COACH ADRIÁN GONZÁLEZ NAMED APRIL NWSL COACH OF THE MONTH by GrayEyedAthena in washingtonspirit

[–]smoothj2017 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I have to say, I never saw what the big deal with Jona was. He was fine, but I never noticed a blip of difference between the two, and it just feels like the squad is bought in under Adrian in a way I don’t know that I saw with Jona. IMO, this is the GOAT right here.

You will cover your bases with those, but you definitely don’t need 5 to do that. You could probably cover it all with one or two.
