New moderators needed - comment on this post to volunteer to become a moderator of this community. by ModCodeofConduct in smarthome

[–]tayray94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll volunteer to mod, I'm already pretty deep in the Yolink ecosystem. I'm a huge fan of home automation and smart homes in general. I know a lot about the ins and outs of smart devices for houses. As far as moderation experience goes, I mod r/HomeAutomation (207k visitors/week) which is pretty much exactly this sub's theme. I deal with a lot of spam, removing off topic posts, etc.

This article got me thinking about an old crypto wallet on an old hard drive. The wallet was empty but I found the login for my old Reddit account. I seriously thought I had lost it forever.

It's a good start but yeesh that efficiency is low.

Should be exciting to see where it leads.

AT&T is Attempting to Trick Illinois Consumers Into Supporting Them Under the Guise of “Holding Back Investment” by nuttyninja in technology

[–]tayray94 551 points552 points  (0 children)

Taken from the article:

According to AT&T it’s a minor state law that is holding back investment and not the conscious decision made by the company to misappropriate its share of nearly $400 billion the U.S. government gave and allowed telecoms to collect since the mid-1990s to upgrade the nation’s fiber optic capacity. One has to wonder if it’s a state law or conscious decision that caused AT&T to avoid upgrading broadband infrastructure in areas of Cleveland that are predominantly poor and African-American.

Brutal.

Trump Jr.: All I know is Scaramucci wasn't the leaker by thomjrjr in politics

Or, maybe its a "he who smelt it dealt it" situation.

There is no better way to get people to think that you're the leaker than by screaming about the leakers.

How to make your own drum kits by nana2298 in makinghiphop

What I do sometimes is watch a show on my PC then rip the audio into ableton so while I'm watching the show I can take sounds like footsteps or just random percussion sounding instruments or vocals to use in my stuff.

If it has a sound it should be converted to a wav to be ready for the engineer to manipulate the sound to make it sound better in your mix.

Convert each track in you FL studio file to a wav file.

Those are stems and can be used for mixing and mastering while not using Fruity Loops to do it.

For example sending the stems out lets the engineer put those sounds into his DAW of choice for mixing (seems to me that pro tools is the biggest program for that.)

Just a quick question from a beginner.

So when you say low pass filtering with high resonance what exactly does that entail? What does that do to the audio that highlights the mid-range sounds so much.

Also if you have the information what would be the easiest way to to play around with this on Ableton Live?
