Re: Everybody OK?

I'm mostly OK myself, but my mother passed away exactly two months ago due to the combined effects of recovering from liver surgery for cancer and a chronic heart condition. The epidemic was blessing to me as I could be with her in her final days. She was strong and kept a positive outlook up to he...

Boy, from outside of the US this all looks pretty grim. All the best for you guys! Here in Krautistan we have a lockdown going for almost two weeks now, and spreading rates have been going down. We seem to have gone past the maximum of spreading for this wave, but we'll have to sit out the next two ...

Re: corona virus

It's getting close here.
My wife had a case in her school, and they closed it for today and over the weekend to isolate contact persons.
We made a food schedule and shopping list for a quarantine.
As I have asthma I'm dab square in the risk group.
We'll see how this pans out.

Needs more bass, I hear no discernible kick and the vocals drown a bit.
More vocals, you can lower the acoustic on the left as well, here.

I have an overtly pumping acoustic guitar here, round the 0:50 mark.
Otherwise I have a bobbing head. :stg:

DI electric guitar done right.

Hello guys and girls, I think I came up with an original-ish idea how to record electric guitar. You take a DI and place it between the power amp out and the speaker, and put a convolution reverb with an Impulse response of a speaker on it afterwards. This might be especially interesting for you fol...

Really? So liberals aren’t or weren’t for law and order? Or due process? That’s total nonsense spin. And that's a totally unneccessary attack, weedy.

Re: You'd think it would be better....

I find it hard to draw a clear distinction between conservative and reactionary. This is kinda the rub of it, in my opinion. Conservative meant to stand for something. Law and order, for example, which meant sticking to the actual legislation and defending due process. Or the concept of sustainabil...
