fluffypony: but based on some
trivial readings I believe
the major aim is authenticity - what goes on
to
the master (digital or otherwise) must be as close
to reality as possible, let post-processing be done in playback
mircea_popescu: ThickAsThieves but basically, any "artist" is just called "a band" in my admittedly living in
the past head.
ThickAsThieves: this may be still on
the
table, but I'm currently researching
the video game music industry
fluffypony: ThickAsThieves:
that's helluva interesting, way out of my field of knowledge
fluffypony: step into my parlour, said
the spider
to
the fly
mircea_popescu: fluffypony he's probably just
trying
to record his wife snoring
ThickAsThieves: his "secret sauce" is
that he uses his on opamp design
ThickAsThieves: i did a whole floor plan for my space, i'll probly start some blog posts on
the efforts after Amsterdam
ThickAsThieves: it was
the object of my obsession
til i found you guys
kakobrekla: ThickAsThieves a lot of
that is bullshit, a lot of it isnt.
mod6: <+ThickAsThieves> hell,
they cream over plugins
that emulate vintage gear << haha
ThickAsThieves: hell,
they cream over plugins
that emulate vintage gear
ThickAsThieves: people have like 1000-post-long
threads about digital converter chips
mircea_popescu: just
the offense
this discussion brings
to any serious ee may have him change his mind.
ThickAsThieves: this is partly why i
tried (and failed)
to get stan interested in designing gear
mircea_popescu: ThickAsThieves so basically
this "industry" is not so unlike bitcoin biznis industry
mircea_popescu: kakobrekla so
the amps do not have a jack into which you can plug your speakers or mixing
table or anything else ?
kakobrekla: mircea_popescu
the speakers color
the sound specifically depending on brand model, and guitar players want
that .
ThickAsThieves: because if i just record
the line,
then i must use digital effects and overdrive etc
mircea_popescu: you already got
their signal, what's
the mic going
to do ?
mircea_popescu: how
the fuck do you want
to do a soundproofing job w/o a db probe
ThickAsThieves: no matter, i know from hearing it's
too loud
to have going with mics hot
mircea_popescu: funny, i can't
tell whether my heater fan is working from here.
mircea_popescu: tbh, unless you got some
turboprop shit going on here, a properly soundproofed garage shouldn't care anywya.
ThickAsThieves: i guess i need
to ride it out and see if it shuts up when it's heated
ThickAsThieves: here i was
thinking i'd be nice and give it
to him for free
ThickAsThieves: the best part is
the installer wouldnt even
take
the replaced one, which works perfectly fine
mircea_popescu: benkay some shit us idea
that
tries
to combine
the african water heater (big
tank painted black) with
the european model (burn gas under
the pipe, like a reverse fridge)
ThickAsThieves: well
the prior was electric, it only made noise when refilling with water after showers
mircea_popescu: ThickAsThieves if it makes you feel better, my house (and most of europe) is heated by gas fired
tankless systems, which actuyally make very little noise.
fluffypony: ThickAsThieves Presents:
The Lion King Intro (Cover)
ThickAsThieves: maybe i can get out of
thois only spending $4000 for nothing
benkay: because heating water isn't dead simple
to begin with.
kakobrekla: its a
thing
that "will and will not heat your water"
benkay: what
the hell is a hybrid water heater?
mircea_popescu: is
the fan making noise because of mechanics or airflow ?
ThickAsThieves: there's a mega fan, and
then
this humming mini-keg
thing
mircea_popescu: ThickAsThieves just go with
the flow man. add
the noise
to
the beats :D
ThickAsThieves: it requires 700sqft of open air
to work, so i also cant box it in
to dampen noise
ThickAsThieves: and my garage is a converted recording studio in
the making
ThickAsThieves: rather
than solar, cuz it's better or cheaper or whatever
mircea_popescu: this is what people say whose washing machine water hose popped early in
the unsupervised cycle
ThickAsThieves: as part of
this solar install we werse sold a hybrid water heater
benkay: i mean give me a fn delimiter and i'm going
to delimit on
that.
benkay: at least
the number of fields is consistent. only saving grace.
mircea_popescu: course why
the fuck do
they not use
the already conventrional ""
benkay: lol unix
time machines
benkay: or do i need
to write a state machine generator generator
to identify unix
time machines?
benkay: is
the notion
that because it's in square brackets it'd be fine
to include a space?
mircea_popescu: benkay of course,
traditional webserver access logs (the sort awstats processes) are in fact space separated
benkay: can't
tell if 'design' or just derps lifted out of someone else's DC for
their 2 years in aws.
benkay: i'm new
to
this pressed shitboard
thing and can never
tell if a
thing is done incorrectly or if
there's a deeper shitboard reason for
the derptastic engineering.
benkay: is it unreasonable
to expect
that a delimeter not be used in fields?
benkay: additionally, some of
their fields have spaces in
them as well.
benkay: in other news, AWS claims
that
their log files are space delimited.
