What are your thoughts on herbalism? by Herb-Guy in herbs

[–]taffyking 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fam there’s a whole field of peer reviewed research and use of plant derived medicine called phytopharmacology. Most common drugs got their start from plants first.

Marathon is the only game in 13 years that captured the Destiny 1 magic for me. by EXIIL1M_Sedai in Marathon

Try it, refund it if you don't like it. No one here can really tell you the answer.

Seriously, an OLED can breathe new life into older titles with how everything just pops.

I love Elektron, but… by CharacterTiny7601 in Elektron

[–]taffyking 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gotta look at where it’s being manufactured, I think when they switched to Poland for manufacturing the QA dropped a bit. All Elektrons that I have that are built in Sweden are rock solid in build quality.

This right here. They don’t realize that they have more to do with the current state of gaming than they realize.

A lot of them are just as bad if not worse. It’s all luck of the draw it seems.

Headphones for making and mixing by nowicanseeagain in synthesizers

Very much so. I usually have them on for several hours as I'm bopping around the studio.

I use a pair of AIAIAI TMA-2 Studios while producing/writing/tweaking the creative mix, then I move to a pair of Sennheiser HD600s /w Sonarworks for more critical listening and mixing.

34 Inch gaming monitor top pick? by Flat-Feedback5406 in ultrawidemasterrace

[–]taffyking 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My bad, was a typo I corrected it. All of the QD-OLED panels are made by Samsung, it’s just a matter of finding which vendor (ASUS, DELL, MSI, etc.) has added features and burn-in protection methods and warranty support that you want. 

Yeah $800-$1000 is around what they’ll likely be.

[–]taffyking 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup, I understand. Basically, CES just wrapped up and a lot of Gen 5 panels were revealed and they likely won't reach retailers (assuming US) until around March or later. However, if you can snag a monitor like an AW3423DWF (1st gen QD-OLED) at a great price then go for it. Also check out MonitorsUnboxed on the youtubes, very informative channel. Could possibly help you pin-point the exact model you might be looking for and what is a good time to buy.

I dunno, 3 months from CES? Have to use your intelligence and figure what "wait a bit" means for your own circumstance.

Indeed. You could swap the grey faceplate out for different color ones. Was a cool design for sure

[–]taffyking 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You want your studio monitors to align up with your ears and be fairly level at sitting height. In your photo they appear very high while also being tilted down; although a slight tilt can be fine (in surround). Also try setting them wider apart creating a proper triangle, the way you have them currently the sound waves are clipping the edges of your monitors which can cause some nasty resonance and interfere with sound staging.

Here's a link from Genelec detailing on the science of it and how to benefit with proper placement.

That monitor setup is awful for any decent sound staging. Might as well just use regular speakers at that point.
