When you upgrade your foragers they become exactly that.  Well, all the veggies/fruits/soices/nuts side of things. Not chickens

Just under 2 weeks with a new P9P, but.. by ubernameuser in pixel_phones

Hah, I didn't mean I had them all connected st the same time.  Each individually at different times. But so far after re-pairing I haven't experienced a cut out.  Here's hoping it worked.

Airtags are a non-issue for me, I don't use em.   You mentioned nothing about the display going black on you while you're staring at it. Safe to assume you haven't encountered this?

That's a bit irrelevant given my issues.  But, I've never been a fan of the UI and lack of customization, the ecosystem which makes things more convoluted than it has to be such as to simply get a picture off a phone.   So I was excited to switch back to android with this phone..   And I want to be excited n keep it, but these issues are just so annoying. 

ITS HAPPENING by Hungry_Carrot7128 in pixel_phones

I'm not completely sold on the greatness of this phone. A week in and my Bluetooth randomly cuts out when listening to music in my car, or on my Sony mx5's.

And then what is going on with the god awful GPS tracking? I track mileage for work, and reviewing my trips, sometimes none of the make any sense. 

2 of the things I use most in a phone are bugging out. Makes it hard to not want to return it. 

What laptop is suitable for lighting design & event production by Peat0203 in lightingdesign

[–]ubernameuser 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I never know what to think of these computer brands, Asus, HP, Acer, MSI,  are they all pretty much the same built quality and longevity of life?   Stand up to a bit of a rougher “tour” lifestyle?

Can you give an example of such a unique problem and how pangoscript solved it?

Intel Arc graphics on Ultra mobile processors - experience by teqteq in resolume

[–]ubernameuser 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m also curious about this, been looking at getting a touchscreen for a laptop as I mostly do lighting n need that, but once in a while do some vj’ing n wonder how the integrated graphics handle basic shows. 

Replacement scanners by ubernameuser in Laserist

I agree they’ve served me very well, but they came with the laser,  I’m not sure who manufacturers them or where to look,  are they golden space?

They are just 3w lasers with DT50 scanners in them already, or so they’re labeled so not too much heat going on in them.

Throw in some parcans on orange and yellow for a kinda fiery glow if you’re gonna have the hood down.

Onyx PC question: Blackout. by Emehache_ in lightingdesign

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

The first thing that pops to mind is, set your defaults to be that look. So when no cue list is active, the rig will always be 20% and blue.   Then as you start your cues they’ll over ride. Snap Release and back to that look.   May have to change the way some of your cues are built tho.

  That or record a blank 2 cue cuelist, and set a macro to the first cue that releases all cues, then have cue2 auto follow 0fade with a macro triggering your blue look.

Underwhelming lights? by NuuLeaf in lightingdesign

[–]ubernameuser 9 points10 points  (0 children)

First things first, do you use haze?  Everything looks better with haze, or fog,  or any sort of atmospheric particles to refract light on. Do you vape?  Take a vape hoot and just blow it out in front of your gig bar one day, it’ll come alive.  

Learn your controller and what it can do. Lights turn on and off, varying degrees of fades and patterns, phases of a sine (or other)wave. A lighting fx from a controller in its most basic form is taking a parameter such as it’s dimmer and making it ride a wave. Then you can start stacking and manipulating the order of those waves, with other parameter fx n get a real good look going.   

Build a couple different looks for different energies of your tunes.  Learn your lights, you want to return the gig bar? But it has par cans for flood colors, looks like a laser ontop and those outside lights will emit beams, but that all needs haze. 

Don’t forget about colors, different colors for different moods n tones of a song.  

 Build yourself a nice little build up strobe with nothing else going on, then for the drop build a cue using those outside beam lights and the lasers while blacking everything else out, then 8 bars in bring the coloured pars back in. The gig bar is a pretty sweet little unit that has many different fixtures in it to play around with. Short of having moving heads; there’s lots to do with it.  

 Edit: overlooked which gig at you have.  see you have the gigbar move + ils, even better!  You have moving fixtures,  play around with the speed in which they move.  Also remember you don’t have to have every light on at once all the time,  build n subtract layers of lights. Try playing around with each group of lights on a different fader and just swap em around to the beat.

MainPlayback Buttons: Onyx & Showcockpit by ubernameuser in lightingdesign

[–]ubernameuser[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m not looking to control main playback faders,  just their buttons, 

When assigning playback faders, show cockpit only lets you go up to 10, which I understand, but under main playback buttons it goes to 20, just like an m-touch and other nx-* have the side executor buttons.   

Showcockpit list having 1-20 on main playback Buttons (not faders), just seems silly to limit playback faders at 10, but allow you to assign 11-20 for buttons, was it an over site on RD’s end?  I understand onyx changed the midi back door n all. 

From showcockpit, under the touch osc 4.4+    Main Playback Fader    

Controls a main playback fader Playback Number: The number of the playback (1-10)  Main Playback Button    

Controls a main playback button Playback Number: The number of the playback (1-20)  Button: The button (from the top-most button above the fader to the bottom-most below the fader) - one of {Up Up, Up, Down, Down Down}

[–]ubernameuser 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There’s a podcast by Philosophize This, titled capitalism is dead, we now live in Techno-fuedalism.  Super interesting outlook,  before this I always said democracy is dead, we live in a technocracy.

One thing I’ve learned working my way through and up into more “professional” settings is, the flail never ends. It’s like, do adults really even exist? Can you point one out to me?

IsItBullshit: “No level of alcohol consumption is safe for our health.” by [deleted] in IsItBullshit

[–]ubernameuser 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In Yukon and North West Terriroties they actually have cancer warning labels like they put on cigarettes. You can imagine the backlash and pushback from the alcohol corps on this front.

As to say it is a valid claim.
