Re: minor cosmetic issue

Please, please can we have a tongue in cheek emoji, so I can stop offending people. Nobody who knows me takes anything I say seriously.

Re: My upstairs neighbor records what is in my apartment ... and I

The guy is asking how to go about it, not whether or not he should. He's not posted in the lounge.

Re: Guitarist+Trax -v- Keytar+Trax??

Not the same rationale. Lap guitars and pedal steel guitars sound (and are) different from a guitar. What sounds can you make with a keytar that you can't with a keyboard? If the rationale is "wants to look like...on stage" the sound is irrelevent. But if someone wants to perform for thei...

Re: My upstairs neighbor records what is in my apartment ... and I

Depending on the construction of the building, a cheap boundary mic (like you use for conferencing) or PZM attached to the ceiling with poster putty might be one way to go. But depending on what evidence you're hoping to record maybe just use your phone?

Re: Guitarist+Trax -v- Keytar+Trax??

Do you really think this is designed to look anything like a keyboard? https://bb.steelguitarforum.com/userpix0903/923_DSC08756_1.jpg Yes. If I met him in the street I'd assume he was a keyboard player. Now the guy behind him has guitarist written in his DNA. One's a plonker. The other is a twanger.

Re: Guitarist+Trax -v- Keytar+Trax??

We just don't want to make too much fun of someone who plays a keytar! :D Thereby promulgating the whole diss of anyone who thinks of using one...guitarist playing "chunka chunka" chords over a four piece band track are somehow thought of as "musicians" and someone who has to fo...

Re: Windows update error?

If Macs are so superior and reliable why are there 3495 posts on the Mac forum? ;) My iMac crashed very badly, Apple repaired it out of warranty free of charge, while I waited. In 8 years that has been the only issue. I'm from a PC background, but wouldn’t go back now, it all just feels a bit clunk...

Re: Steampunk gurdy

Good teachers given the freedom to inspire kids are the key but they seem to be too constrained by 'the system' and prevented from creative thinking/teaching. I guess it suits the powers to turn out compliant 'citizens' who'll do as they are told. True to a point. But it also stops them putting aro...

Re: More RAM or another PC?

A while back I used MrMemory for RAM sticks. They scan your system and recommend options available at different price points. Really good service as I recall.
