    More masking - time to fire up the (D) cheat machine

    So what I'm hearing here is that when surgeons wear a mask in the operating room it's just some kind of superstition? Got it.

    How do you slate video when you're recording direct?

    If I weren't recording my keyboards directly into my multitrack recorder the handclap would be the way I do it. But unless I put up a room mic there won't be any sound from the clap on the audio recording to sync to. It is looking like I have to devote a track for just that and if I'm gonna do...

    How do you slate video when you're recording direct?

    I bought super cheap-o action cameras. I think I paid $50 each for four of them. I have been trying to 3D print some open cages for them because they're proprietary and only the housing that came with them will fit. Alternatively I could go real caveman and just tape them to mic stands or...

    How do you slate video when you're recording direct?

    All of those ideas would be fine if the action cameras I am using weren't so terrible audio wise. I don't mean bad quality I mean hardly audible. I haven't looked at the waveforms for the cameras yet, but after playing them back I doubt they will be very legible. I would need a significant hit...

    How do you slate video when you're recording direct?

    For single camera videos it will just be on a static tripod with my hands in the shot yes. Otherwise I might use up to three cameras on tripods and at least one of them will have my hands in the shot. Yes the sound will be audible in the room BUT (but but but) the cameras that I plan to use do...

    How do you slate video when you're recording direct?

    I plan on doing a lot of video with keyboards recorded direct to a multitrack. Without adding a microphone to my rig, how can I sync the audio with the video? I've considered playing a "clap" sound with one of my keyboards to get a nice spike but then there are no visual cues to help align the...

    Passive stereo to mono solutions

    I think I will cross my fingers and give this a shot. It will have to wait a bit to try out because....reasons.

    Passive stereo to mono solutions

    I followed only about half of what you are saying but it sounds like I can use any mono to stereo cable in reverse with safety and effectiveness. I have such cables on hand already if that is the case. (Is OP Z the teenage engineering sequencer synth? That's all I get from a google search on it.)

    Passive stereo to mono solutions

    Hmmm, well full disclosure the sound source will be the left and right outputs (combined by headphones jack) from a keyboard. Not, as you are probably imagining a cell phone.

    Passive stereo to mono solutions

    Those are similar instructions to what I have found online so far, but I don't see how this deals with the phase cancelation issues. Can you explain it to me?

    Passive stereo to mono solutions

    I will try to nutshell this as best as I can. I have a stereo output that I need to send into a mono input. I am looking to sum the stereo channels into the mono device without losing anything to phase cancelation and without damaging the output of the stereo device. I have come across DIY...

    What made Trump so bad?

    You seem to think that the population of California dwarfs the rest of the country. It does not. There is no way that California could lead the country around by the nose the way less populated states are doing right now based on the two senators per state regardless of population system we have...

    What made Trump so bad?

    I didn't realize we had the kind of relationship that allows ad hominem attacks. I didn't realize we were such good friends. Google searched "What is an example of constitutional republic?" An example would be the United States government, which has elected legislators, elected executives...

    What made Trump so bad?

    That justifies representatives but not the EC. Also representation in congress is a mess too. Every state only gets two senators. How is that fair?

    What made Trump so bad?

    Because there are more eligible voters in California than the rest of the country? One person one vote. That's how it works in every other democracy.
