I'm sorry I never finished breaking bad, I just didn't like it that much.
I got to season four, but then I had enough of it. Sorry.
Original guitar solo piece, written and recorded on the 21st of August, 2021.
Over the last two weeks I've been learning finger tapping, it's been super hard, but I feel like I'm finally starting to get it.
I've been playing guitar for over 10 years and never really got into finger tapping, but its absolutely incredible rediscovering the beauty of the guitar again, and the insane sounds it can make.

    Anyone try testing the Shure FP23 and FP24 along side the mm-1? As far as I’ve heard, these units were designed by the Sound Devices people before they started their own company-and the preamp design is supposedly very similar to early Sound Devices offerings. I have some of the Shures and I really like them, but I’ve never A/B’d them against similar Slund Devices units.

  • @dfinn7085
    @dfinn7085 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    Haha, I agree with your assessment entirely. Alex de Renzy is a fascinating pervert who'"s technical filmmaking skill and unflinching fascination with the boundaries of human sexual behavior will most likely never be appreciated within the world of cinema, especially in our current culture of political correctness. While Pretty Peaches really is a fuck film more than anything else,it can be argued that de Renzy"s early stuff can not be dismissed as simple porn but rather it is outsider cinema that dealt with themes of extreme sexuality. I haven't seen the notorious early documentaries but The Punishment of Anne and especially Femmes de Sade are so thoughtful, well crafted and legitimately challenging that they cannot be dismissed as mere smut or even as grind house/, exploitation cinema. The final scene of Femmes de Sade with its lavish costumes and transformation of a villain's retribution into a literal song and dance number, complete with original music and gleeful use of actual body fluids is one of the most bizarre and memorable moments in all of 70z indie cinema. As tragic it might be that de Renzy has never been recognized for his obvious talent and unique vision, it is also great to know he will most likely remain a hidden treasure and best kept secret as only a small percentage of his audience will have the open mind and strong nerves to take the absolutely wild ride that his best films offer. Nice choice shining a light on Pretty Peaches one and two. Maybe in future videos you can review additional de Renzy films and start going deeper into the rabbit holes the man left behind.

    Thanks for this video. Just added a 302 to my collection which also includes a Mix Pre 6. Price was higher than you said but still "low" relatively, for what you get compared to other products. Especially compared to the original price. About a third of that. I like it for voice a lot but I'm not quite sure how I rate it for musical instruments. The Mix Pre does a little bit better there I guess. Eventually I'm going to build my own battery powered stereo mic pre but it's not going to be anywhere near the 302 in terms of features and options. That's really where the 302 stands out. Cue mixing system, limiters, strong headphone amp. My DIY mic pre is going to be just two ins and two outs with simple controls. I've not too much experience with film, primarily music related video and audio recording.

Original print artwork of the New Ghost In the Shell Series originally had a PG rating, which was obviously not correct, and then later amended. Because this box had a quick turn around, I believe it was just an error. As there is no "extra content" that would justify a increase in rating.

    • @alexchristensen2651
      @alexchristensen2651 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      The best way to utilize an MM-1 with a zoom f8 or mix pre is to feed the microphone into the mm-1 and then feed the line out signal of the mm-1 to the line in input of the recorder. Best way to utilize a low noise floor is to set gain on the mm-1 appropriately (i usually set it to 42 or 46db for film - depending on the scene) with the zoom or mixpre set to 0db trim. I used to use this setup into a zoom f8 it worked excellently and sounds great, best way to utilize quality pre-amps into a cost effective recorder. If you have any other questions dont hesitate to ask.

      I have a 744T as a backup which replaced a zoom f8. Super easy to just switch out the 788t with the 744t and I'm ready to go. I only use rechargeables for testing txs (ifb receivers and slates I use rechargeables for), purely because I have had problems in the past using zaxcom txs with rechargeables - where signal would cut out in the middle of a shot (after 30 minutes for example). I feel non-rechargable lithium to be super reliable

      Oh! Little bit surprised you swapped an F8 for a 744T, I couldn't ever see myself trading in my F8 for a 744 So the only non-rechargables you ever use are the lithiums? PRICEY! I know some mixers who make notes/marks of when they buy their rechargeables, then after say 3 years they get demoted to less important tasks like IFBs (as rechargeable battery capacity do decrease over their lifespan) then after another 3 years they get chucked out completely.

      @@SoundSpeeding I learnt sound recording on the f8 and it worked well for years. It got demoted to 2nd when I got the 788t (maybe 2 or 3 years ago). But I got rid of the zoom f8 for the 744t cause I love the preamps and you can link it together with a 788t for 12 I so channels. As well as having AES in and out, so it just fit better in my workflow. In terms of the batteries I used that system with lectrosonics and sennheiser, but for some reason zaxcom just doesn't like them and even with new batteries or pretty batteries i get that problem. So i think better to be safe and pay a bit more than be sorry.

      @@alexchristensen2651 sometimes I regret going Lectrosonics instead of Zaxcom, like when the amazingly tempting Nova just got announced! But then when I hear about quirks like Zaxcom transmitters not playing nicely with rechageables.... ??? I'm happy again! :-)

      @@SoundSpeeding I totally feel you, like Zaxcom have quirks, they don't always play nicely, but when you figure them out you won't ever regret going down that path. Zaxnet, tx recording and AES make my life a breeze.

      Generally speaking, you should dry clean mainline Versace t-shirts. In terms of Versace Collection and Versace Jeans are generally washable. That said I used to have a long sleeve t-shirt like you describe that had studs on it and I was able to a light washing cycle, turned out fine. How did it get destroyed? In colour or texture? Out of curiosity did you buy it in store from versace, online or second hand?

      @@alexchristensen2651 sadly I'm not working on projects which can justify a Cantar X3, maybe in a few more years time! But for now it is waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay outside my price range :-o (although a secondhand X2 pops up now and then at tempting prices) However I am very very very happy with my Zoom F8n for now, my extra spare money can go into other areas instead of a new recorder. Can happily sit on the sidelines and wait for Sound Devices to release an amazing 2nd generation 6xx series mixer/recorder? Even if it takes them a couple of years or four to do that. Or maybe Zaxcom will update their Nomad/Maxx? (actually, I suspect Sound Devices is launching an 8xx series at this year's NAB)
