  1. Played the demo this morning and I stopped and said its only three more days for a release so I'll just wait. But its very gorgeous when you max all the settings out as I would expect from an RE game.
  2. I'd play RE7 first. Its a good game and its weird at first but you get used to what they are trying to do. As for the PS5 I am going PC for this one.
  3. Yep 1st person with some 3rd person view in there too from what I have seen on other iterations but this is more like RE7 I think.
  4. Figured i'd ask it here since this topic is pretty stagnant. What are some topics you think would get people creative and help them learn photography? E.g. tips on learning the Exposure Triangle and then breaking those rules to get more creative pictures?
  5. Played the Village demo for RE today. While its short I like the direction Capcom have taken here and the spin of using Lycans with survival horror. Release day can't come soon enough.
  6. Yep you were right - "EA made the decision to close down Visceral days later on October 17, 2017" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visceral_Games
  7. If you like Billy you'll like this too.

    Once you learn it its very hard to unlearn it because you know how the connections work, etc. I tried it with CakeWalk and its wasn't ... too bad. Take that with a pinch of salt.

    I still have it and its great becasue its so small you can take it anywhere. The only limiter is just that it was a pain to setup with a DAW so im glad i got the Maschine and I didn't need the fancy one with the solo components (although it is cool). The ableton one is nice too - Ableton Push 2

    I can totally relate to this. I went into Logic and thought shit I can write a drumbeat but if you dont feel it then it really sounds very mechanical. But, all things said the Maschine does allow me to set the track and then get going. Then there are crazy folks like this.

    What happened to your beat machine?

    Up first is my iPhone placed on top of amp top left corner with Bass up and mids down with treble down too. https://www.mediafire.com/file/zvt5ssqy0xulutt/U2_-_I_Still_Haven%27t_Found_What_I%27m_Looking_For_-_iPhone.m4a/file I'll post the mic sample once I get it all setup and I'll use the same song so you can see the isolation effect of the mic from the room. Oh and I wouldn't hear this all the way up the bass literally starts to get very heavy.

    In my limited experience with using mics on cabs I'd say there is really one mic that stands out and that is the Shure SM57(or the SM57C), they are the same mic just with some add-ons. I have three of these and I use them for recording acoustic guitar. They have zero interference based on how much you raise the gain on the FocusRite and you can use three of them to record quite effectively. As for how many mics you want to use? The sky is literally the limit here haha. Just remember that you will need to be able to power all of them (phantom power option for condenser mics) so keep that in mind. I'd start with one mic (SM57) and see how it sounds. Don't use these mics for spatial recording (i.e. put it in the middle of the room and expect it to record well) they don't do this very well but if you mic the cabinet then you'll get some very clear sound with it. I'll try and do a demo with a bass guitar today and post it here.

    My only suggestion on DAWs is this. Once you've spent more than a week with one do not try and jump ship haha. Stick with it and make it part of your workflow.

    I think the room acoustics are interfering with your recording, it sounds right but all that free space is making it sound a bit washed out. As for the FocusRite and a mic, take your time as it will take some getting used to and whole new learning curves in settings levels for mic recordings, etc. But, its a fun journey and a few years ago I'd say it was hard but now YouTube has literally got everything you need to get started.
  16. Congrats once again @Viva la FCB and ty for running this @RandoEFC
  17. https://kotaku.com/riot-shuts-down-league-of-legends-fan-game-after-creato-1846782044 And this is my problem with RIOT as a company. I get that their IP is protected and they have every right to shut it down but that little exchange is just in poor taste. I wouldn't be surprised if we saw a lot of folks ditch League and move to the real big dog DOTA now. They could have gone the WoW/Blizzard route but thats not going to happen now even if Blizzard is just as rotten as RIOT.

    Well dang. That's a technical issue I have no solution for haha.

    Wait dont you have a Mac? Why are you still trying to use a PC for all this?

    Making Music

    I tried using Cakewalk and it was such a pain to get the device registered correctly on it that I gave up haha. Then again who knows what I was doing wrong when I used it but I know a lot of folks who use it too and its free version is pretty good. I only started using Pro Tools because it felt like Logic but I have toyed with Ableton and while it gets its name from being more of an EDM DAW its very good for just recording stuff too and a lot of people on YT who I follow use it pretty religiously to create music. Let me know how it works out for you.

    As a once-upon-a-time Amplitube user the only reason I stopped is because the little connector for the iPhone went from an audio-jack to a lightning connector and my iPhone got upgraded so I never really went back but I remember it being rather good with some decent if not negligible lag. As for PC DAWs, my person favorite right now its Pro Tools. Its like Logic but its got its own little quirks which you have to learn as you go along like setting channels, etc but if you're just recording to practice I think it will do just fine. The only problem? You have to register and you must be internet connected otherwise it just fails completely to even start. As for the one most folks are using right now? Ableton Live is the pop choice in music circles. Why? I have no idea but it does mean that you'll need something that's compatible. Shame about your FocusRite dying because I think thats a nice little piece of tech. I upgraded to an Audient EVO and while its superb in its own way I miss the FocusRite just because it felt really sturdy.

    He said this is kind of unusual because it looks like it corroded from the inside out and then just snapped. I was glad it didnt fuck me up on stage but yeah its totally crazy. I wish I had recorded it because it looked very funny.
