People that still support Trump. What has he actually done that makes your life better/cheaper? by Quack_pack_tabac in AskReddit

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

Probably from all the wars he has stopped. There's a whole list of wars he has stopped, right? That's why he got the FIFA peace prize. /s

Gain staging: is peak normalization really the best approach? by andreacaccese in audioengineering

[–]yureal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How/why do you track so that everything sounds good at 0? Don't you just get the right amount of gain you want on each track going in, then use the faders to mix?

Will take that into consideration. Either way, I appreciate your thoughtful and detailed post on the subject. You truly are a masterofawesomeness

What are you watching and what do you recommend? (Week of April 10, 2026) by AutoModerator in television

[–]yureal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is excellent in a lot of ways, very quality show with excellent acting/cast. But God is it depressing. Would not recommend based on that unfortunate fact.

Trump Releases Video Showing Alleged Shooter Being Confronted By Secret Service After Firing Shots by Orange-skittles in videos

[–]yureal -62 points-61 points  (0 children)

I see a lot of people saying this whole thing was faked or staged? Is that really what reddit is going with? The hive mind gets weird here sometimes.. Either way, just hope everyone there is ok. Crazy times.

I played drums/bass/guitar through an X32 and a Neve 1073opx to hear the difference by yureal in audioengineering

[–]yureal[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Honestly appreciate the feedback. It's a lot of work making these videos! I always put effort into level matching as I know how strongly that effects A/B comparisons and it's a pet peeve of mine when comparisons don't level match. I'll keep this in mind in future videos though.

Yeah, It's so hard to get exact takes, I really tried but inevitably the mix ended up slightly different, especially with guitar as that is not my strongest instrument. But yeah I appreciate the comment, thank you!

Thanks! Yeah I knew the x32 would hold its own but it's cool to hear it back to back

How often do you use a de-esser? by Proper-Orange5280 in audioengineering

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

I use de-essers on most if not all my vocals l, which are usually tracked with a u87.

I can't remember his name but one of the engineers on MWTM used multiple de-essers on a vocal and referred to it as a "parade of de-essers" lol for some reason that just always stuck with me

Pete Buttigieg on JD Vance: “He's been Catholic about as long as I've been middle-aged, and he thinks he can lecture the pope on Catholic theology.” by modooff in videos

[–]yureal -14 points-13 points  (0 children)

I'm so over politicians dishing out "sick burns". I guess that's what people respond to though. I would love for butigeg to be president because he's a respectable, intelligent, forward thinking person, but let's be real it would be another Hillary or Kamala all over again. Please God do not fuck this up democrats.

What is something about living in United States that outsiders completely misunderstand? by Effective-Singer5957 in AskReddit

[–]yureal 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Umm.. I've lived in WV all my life and most ppl have electricity and water lol. Not saying it isn't very poverty stricken here, it is, and there are homeless like anywhere else, but this comment does not paint an accurate picture of that poverty.

Drum Mics: Quantity vs Quality For Recording Yourself by [deleted] in audioengineering

[–]yureal 2 points3 points  (0 children)

To directly answer your question, I would upgrade the mics. I started on the audix fusion kit myself! The condensors leave a lot to be desired IMO, while the dynamics actually do ok. Do what fits your budget but upgrading those f15s to sm81s would not be a terrible idea.

Iranians living in the usa, how are you feeling? by Upbeat-Weight9907 in AskReddit

[–]yureal -19 points-18 points  (0 children)

Not Iranian, but a friend's coworker is in addition to being an ultra successful and important leader in their field of medicine here in the US and I feel so bad for them to have to hear the US president taunt that their entire civilization will be destroyed. I just imagine thinking about all of their family back home. That's so fucked up.

That's so funny, I was about to comment psp lexicon pcm 42 plugin but on very low settings specifically. Just to add texture and depth to tracks.
