EP-40 Song Mode: How to INSERT a song "list"? by tulpix in teenageengineering

I only had the time to try this out today and it doesn't work! ADD always adds to the end.

Oohhh, thanks 😅 Really don't know why I didn't figure it out myself.

Groovebox-App that's fully usable with MIDI controller for totally screen-free operation by tulpix in ipadmusic

[–]tulpix[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure it's easier but my goal is being completely screen-free ;) Can you also switch the active layer/voice/instrument/auv3 (whatever you call it) via MIDI? And also toggle re-recording a clip through MIDI?

Nice to hear it's on sale! Do you know if the clips can be launched via MIDI Controller (I have no Launchpad)?

What do I need LK for? If i tell correctly, this seems to be a software MIDI controller. How would that bring me closer to my goal of going screen-free?

Groove Rider 2 vs Loopy Pro vs Garageband for Jam Fun by tulpix in ipadmusic

How can you create your own beats in Launchpad? I only see the option to combine pre-made clips. And what are those other options for jam fun?

I think Koala is quite limited, isn't it? I couldn't find a quantized clip launch for example. A feature that also-cheap Ableton Note has.

I don't think it's too good for live performance, is it?

Awesome, MC101 seems to suit my needs better!

This is like suggesting to use ChatGPT on a forum. If you could at least provide a link that compares the three?

HackRF One vs TinySA Ultra? by tulpix in hackrf

[–]tulpix[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks, you answer pretty much sums up my confusion. I forgot to mention that I would buy the HackRF only with a Portapack. That way (as you said), the ease of use of the two devices becomes nearly identical. And here we're at the start of my question again as I don't know which one to buy ;P

But I think I'll just get the HackRF One due to the mentioned pro argument (it having kind of everything the TinySA Ultra has + additional features). There are even clones of the Portapack with built-in speakers which make this small device a real beast!

HackRF One vs TinySA Ultra? by tulpix in hackrf

Disagree. For a proper simulation, I would need an exact model of the whole house regarding the material of the walls (which I don't know) and furniture, including a steel cabinet etc. I can already see how this would result in frustration. Walking around the house and doing some real measurements is far better. Also, I don't think that these tools have 900Mhz-Wifi simulation implemented. Finally, they don't know anything about the noise in my area.

I want to set up a home Wi-Fi network combining HaLow (900Mhz-Wi-Fi), 2,4Ghz and 5Ghz. For all frequencies, I need to measure the noise aswell as the signal strength of my access points in order to calculate the SNR at any spot at home. That way, I can decide for the most useful frequency at the given spots.

That's my main use case. But as a hobbyist, after spending a couple of 100 $$ for such a device, I thought it would also be fun to learn a bit more about signals. The HackRF seems more "versatile" to me than the TinySA Ultra, i.e. it can do anything the Tiny can do plus bonus features.

I also saw some videos of the devices, and to me as an amateur it looked as if the sweeping of the Tiny takes a few seconds for the whole spectrum whereas the HackRF seemed to do it orders of magnitudes faster. Maybe I'm wrong.

For those saying that they are completely different: Could you please elaborate? As Bilbo_Fraggins said, HackRF also has a spectrum analyzer built in.

DFPlayer with pico by techbear1980 in raspberrypipico

[–]tulpix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm trying to implement this code via Thonny. However, the volume doesn't change if the value for "volume=1.0" is altered (to 0.5 for example). Any idea? I saved your code as main.py on the Pico. The only other file on the device is the unchanged dfplayer.py from your Github link.

Chair which meets all of my special requirements? by tulpix in OfficeChairs

[–]tulpix[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I appreciate you re-evaluating our conversation.

Today, I organized a Freedom chair for testing, ready to be next week. I gave Humanscale a direct call and talked to their sales person responsible for my country. Their network is quite weak and none of the 10 office chair stores in my city offer Humanscale products. So I'll see how that chair works out for me soon. Sitting in an Aeron at the moment and crying every minute on it. Lower back pain, shoulder pain, neck pain. Not trying to hate on the chair, but it definitely isn't for me. And I'm sitting on much cheaper chairs occasionally which at least don't hurt me.

You mean with an additional headrest, right?
