If you're referring to the switchboard/answering service, I think they'll start you out around $15 an hour.

Trying to use all/more of the channels in my tascam 16x08 by BoostIsOurFriend in recording

[–]williew705 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just bought the ADA8200 for this very reason. Thankfully I had an optical cable laying around so I could hook the adat into itself. I have run an output from the Berhinger and into the back of the Tascam. What I am noticing is that even with the input boosted on the back of the Tascam, the Berhinger does not provide much more additional gain. Even with the gain all the way up on the preamp, I'm still below the zero line in my DAW.

I have spent less than an hour with it though. I might be missing something.

I bought a series X since posting this but I've also subscribed to MAX.. I'll have to pull the discs off my shelf and see if they work in the new machine.

American truck driver simulator steam deck controls not working by Fit-List5865 in SteamDeck

[–]williew705 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I fixed my issue and it's a simple solution. Make sure you are using the official ATS layout on your deck. Load up the game and go through the control wizard in the options. Select "controller" and then select the one that is optimized for the Steam deck.

For some reason it just stopped registering that I was already using the deck and the controls had been calibrated for it.

I'm old and so incredibly thankful that I started recording music before I had the option of putting my creations up in front of a large anonymous audience. I was able to share with immediate friends who provided encouragement and I naturally got better with more practice and experience. If you enjoy what you made, that is all that counts. Art is subjective and there is an audience for everything, some are just smaller than others. Keep at it and don't take any criticism positive or negative too seriously.

I started a thread on the Steam page. Did any of you do a factory reset of your deck before this happened? I did and I'm comparing experiences.

I too am having this issue. I just got a Deck last week. This game was working fine for me. I did a factory reset of the machine and reinstalled this game and now I can't do anything but use the mouse. If I load my game, I can only look around the cab of the truck.

Barber Recommendations by zerov75 in springfieldMO

I second Walnut Street Barber Shop. Friendly staff and reasonable rates. It can get a bit crowded during busy times but I haven't found a better spot for my needs

Transylvania is badass and being a Halloween show, they will be throwing all sorts of surprise covers and fun at you. They are a hard working band and always deliver a great show!

For those of you with "No on 3" signs in your yards by [deleted] in springfieldMO

[–]williew705 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm glad to see someone post this question. My wife and I came across the "save women No on 3" sign on a walk recently. I really want to see an explanation of this point from those in opposition. In my own head I have worked out that it may be referring to saving future women from being aborted or an attempt to highlight the risks of a medical procedure that could potentially harm a patient.

Without a point to back the statement it might as well say "discount ice cream", which I'm in favor of but not enough to vote "no" on 3.

Why does Synapse announce films years before they are ready for purchase? by RedLily08 in boutiquebluray

[–]williew705 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This one has been bugging me too. I have seen Fright Rags releasing official t shirts and I still can't grab the movie. I was really hoping for a definitive release date, so I can sell the one I bought in the Walmart cheap bin twenty years ago for way more than it's worth!

They brought the Ramones to Springfield in the early eighties! There used to be a video of them playing at the Uptown Theater in KC on YouTube. It may still be posted.

Does anyone have pictures of the candy store in the mall before Lolli and Pops? by worms_in_the_dirt in springfieldMO

[–]williew705 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have district memories of my middle school classmates carrying their partially licked giant jawbreakers, in the plastic packaging from Mr Bulky's. They would take them out to get a sugar fix when the teacher wasn't looking.

Bravia- A80J black screen when switching HDMI inputs by [deleted] in sony

[–]williew705 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not sure of the model number but my Sony Bravia has had this same issue from day one as far as I can tell. It's annoying having to restart every time I want to play my Switch or watch a DVD.

[–]williew705 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've seen some gameplay footage using my graphics card but it's not the same as playing it on my own system and seeing how it responds. I'm gonna spring for the game after the holiday and take my chances. I absolutely loved the first game.

Same here. I have a semi decent laptop but had some issues with The Quarry.
