Last I was aware, Spud wasn't planning on coming.

We're less than three weeks away!

It's less ironic given some of DIYPerks' other videos, I think. He is very much a Maker Porn type. I mostly watch his channel because he has a soothing/relaxing voice, not because I have any intention of building any of the fiddly overwrought stuff he makes. The acoustic panels are probably the firs...

The 3D printer doesn't really seem all that necessary in the build. You could cut those end pieces out from any number of rigid materials. Also 3D printers are pretty cheap now, and are useful for a lot more than just making acoustic panels. And like the presenter said, there are plenty of places wh...

Yeah it's probably the most elegant approach I've seen in DIY acoustic treatments. The comparison bit at the end is also pretty great, I was surprised at how effective they were.

This happened to show up on my YouTube recommendations just now:

Arthur does get somewhat better throughout the season, at least, but I can totally see that being a reason to stop watching.

I ended up watching season 2 and I enjoyed it quite a lot. A shame it's canceled though, the ending of season 2 sure left a LOT of stuff to happen.

I've owned Massive for years but haven't ever gotten around to trying it out. So I just launched it and now I know I have to mess with it:

Oh yeah this would be a good time to make requests from me too. I’m going to be playing a cross-section of my various things. My current set works out to 30 minutes when I plow through so it’s got plenty of room for extension.

I'm finally listening to this. Unfortunately I don't have any copies of the Attack of the Show episode; it never even occurred to me to download it. I remember it mostly being very awkward. EDIT: Regarding the review on mine, I was definitely trying to avoid annoying the neighbors at 11 PM, and the ...

That sounds a lot better! So much easier to hear all the parts now.

up your butt

30-45 minutes is a lot longer than a typical SFL set, but anyway I have a lot of songs memorized. My main limiting factor is pain, not material.

I’m starting to put together a set list. Any idea how long to target? Seems like we’re going to have longer sets than usual this year.

Ah, good point. I've noticed a lot of consumer electronics amps actually show their volume level in terms of attenuation, so when you have the amp at its (rated) peak level it's +0.0dB, if you have it 1/10 of the power it's -10dB, etc., and I guess that's how guitar amps' volumes work too -- the pre...

Okay, so basically gain is on the pre-amp and volume is on the power-amp, and in a perfect signal chain they'd be equivalent, but amps aren't perfect so you get different sorts of overdrive and clipping based on which signal is being cranked up. Good to know! Yes. And unlike the pre-amp, which we o...

Okay so, what's the difference between gain and volume, in this context? I thought they were synonyms for signal level being crammed into the amplifier.

Can you make my guitar play only the correct notes please thx

sounds like you want an autoharp

Spitfire Audio has a whole crapton of amazing-sounding free samples: https://www.spitfireaudio.com/labs/

Yeah from a brief skim I wasn't sure how this was any better than using rhymezone.com and the dictionary/thesaurus built in to macOS.
