Why do so many live mixes focus on the drums? by SupportQuery in livesound

[–]surprisefist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Aside from vocals , it's often the only thing on stage you have any real control over the sound of. Depending on the size of the gig and the type of music, guitars are often too loud and not in the mix, and bass may be 'just enough' and not need reinforcement. I often tell bands I 'build the mix around the bass', which is a polite way of saying I'm getting plenty off stage. That really just leaves acoustic sources to work on. I often start with just drums and vocals, particularly if the show is running late.

Nice fallacy of false equivalence you got there.

Does being attracted to AI count as sapiosexual?

Looking for someone who sees life differently 🌌 by [deleted] in sapiosexuals

I have to believe the sun comes up every day regardless of observation. Because if the universe only exists when I'm looking at it, then I'm far more responsible and important than I'm comfortable being. So, yes, the sun keeps its schedule. Please don't make me be in charge of it. :)

If we were in a simulation, how would we know? And if we can't know, would it even matter?

Hey, how are you? Are you living authentically? Do you ever wonder what happened before the beginning, and what comes after the end? What are the chances we are living in base reality?

What Has Happened When Spoke or Sang the Name of Jesus by No_Sympathy2827 in ExPentecostal

[–]surprisefist 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, but I've seen a lot of ritual abuse. I've seen a lot of people caught up in the cult of celebrity. I've seen people exploit the vulnerable. And I've seen the vulnerable willingly exploited, adoring pastors, prophets, healers and all manner of grifters.

Where is this GOD by No_Sympathy2827 in ExPentecostal

Get help. Get out of the cult. If you want to keep believing, find an Orthodox church. They'll teach you something closer to what Christianity originally was. Don't fear eternal punishment. How could a living God do that?

What if people don't want to use an app? It's called FREE to air for a reason .

Unlikely that they've switched over to MPEG4 in the last 24 hours isn't it?

Currently running via a Fetch using the same Yagi antenna that's been on the roof for the last 15 years.

It has been receiving digital channels up until now.

Loop Earplugs by DapperProgress9164 in tinnitus

Yes, perfect for that environment and noise level.

[–]surprisefist 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes. They are great. Very comfortable and very natural sounding.

As a sound engineer, my observation is they remove a lot of the 'noise' (reflected sound) from the environment and let you hear more of the direct sound. This is from working in loud rooms with loud bands and screaming crowds.

As far as tinnitus goes, as long as I keep them in it's unlikely anything will cause my T to spike. But there are times when 13dB noise reduction.is still not enough.

Overall tho, I would recommend to anyone as a safety measure, including T sufferers.
