Sinister was another. I think it has a root in left in some other language.

growing up, we were prevented from saying out in left field left out or any other left handed non-pc language. ? You know... to be inclusive.

Wow, really?

Earthquaker pedals for me. I've loved so much stuff. My guitars first and foremost. An old seagull guitar I was playing this morning, for example. There are some things that never took. A tube mic for example. I never loved it. It crackled sometimes and I couldn't trust it.

I love a good amp.

Some of my favorite recordings are if my daughter at her most joyful.

Mississippi diety darn.

It is not deep but it is hardware. Really fun stuff! There are like 10 distinct units in the picture. I can get all the names if you like. They screw in with tiny screws.

Bit, these posts make me very happy. Thanks for them!

A non-portable rack would fit. Being ready to carry it out to a show is nice, but you are right... a new rack would solve the problem.

It misses the fit laying down by like a quarter of an inch. I could just get a non portable rack, but I like making field recordings.

It is such a perfect spot. Access from front and back. In the hangout room. I'm going to try it. If gear dies I'll upgrade.

I'm considering putting all my gear on its side. Anyone do this? Am I likely to overheat? Damage stuff? Or can I get away with it? This is a log pass through for the for place, so it has front and back access.

Emulators are interesting but not equivalent to the real thing. Try ribbons! When it stops feeling fun, plug in, stand up, close eyes, play.

Meh

Charles, you are choosing to display your birthday. I think this is not necessary. I would hide that bit if personally identifiable information.

Clip gain is different from track gain. You cannot automate track gain. Some talented folks use clip gain to feed audio into compressors rather than automate faders on the other side of the compressor. The main reason I use track gain or bus gain is adjust the level without risking input clipping. For example, set guitar gain so it will not clip them turn up track gain so it is a little hotter going into thu. Really, the most common is turning down Bus gains so tracks don't clip busses as they merge together. Mixes often inch hotter and eventually clip a bus. Rather than run around notching tracks down, I reduce the bus gain 1db. No more clipping. Noel confirmed that this doesn't just hide a clip, it avoids it.

My interface has a 'total reset' choice. I am not sure how many times that has repaired it from hopelessly damaged. I'm always sure I broke the hardware, some mic was so hot it melted something, then I reset and poof the transistors heal. It is magic!

I went to moog fest a few years ago in North Carolina. I honestly mostly use pads under guitar. I love some of them. https://www.galbanum.com/products/piscis/ I enjoyed going through the syntorial lessons. https://www.syntorial.com/ I don't think I've finished all of them. My gr 20 has a decay midi value you can use to control synth things like a filter. It is kinda cool but I don't spend a lot of time with it. I'm ashamed to say, I use a lot of presets. Except when I don't.
