  • Scrip is kinda low key a thing again. My SO works for wawa and there is definitely some scrip vibe. They have a company store, a points reward system, they will put you through school if you take classes that benefit the Corp, and the only way to move up is to basically bootlick management at weird company festivals.

    It all has this very dystopian vibe of "everything within the corporation eco system" and my SO is a very principled women who is shy and kind and she refuses to take a step to elevate herself within the Corp, but getting a union going is pretty hard where we're at, everyone is very much of the boot tasting, welfare queen bad variety.

  • If I don't have references for a job, how can I work around that?
  • Tbh...just lie. Base it firmly in reality though and get your story straight. Astroturf the entire reference with people you know, who may or may not have been involved with the reality. Make it believable to the rest of the application. Chances are your references will be passed over entirely anyway while whoever is doing the bare minimum to get through their work day checks over your application.

    This may or may not be good advice. 🤷

  • need some guidance on MUFFs

    So I'm relatively new to fuzz. So far I have a Ge fuzz face, and an EQD hizumitas.

    I play mostly low gain, but I actually prefer the sound of the hizumitas, especially when I roll the guitar volume way way back. I pretty much have it set to a tad above unity, everything on 0.

    I'm thinking there has to be a muff that will let me reach those lower gain tones that are just out of reach with the hizumitas, without having to roll back to 4 on guitar, and turn off some other drives, as it's sort of impractical with my current set up.

    I'll probably be pushing it with a ts9, if I must. But if there is one that has a bit more clarity and note definition, then perhaps I won't need to? I'll be using it for rhythm, alot of major/minor 1 5 8 3 arps, with some analog delay. Maybe some lead tones. With the hizumitas rolled back, I get this really nice woofy, smooth, "controlled" smooth woolyness that sits behind my playing, rather than the usual wall of fuzz or straight smooth distortion.

    So far I have done a bit of research on the green russian, civil war muff, eqd hoof, and the frantone peach fuzz. I'm just a bit overwhelmed, and not too versed in muff circuits, or fuzz in general.

    I'll prob end up copping a clone of whatever I decide.

    Any guidance would be greatly appreciated...perhaps I'm not even looking for a muff? Lol

    [Episode 1068] Moon Princess Echoes! The Final Phase of Wano Country!

    That was a really good episode. A ton happened, I think it was a whole chapter.

    Gum gum hydra looked awesome. I'd imagine g5 would look similar, but more.

    Who ever directed this, I'm a fan of, for sure. The source material is not particularly strong in some spots here(big mom), but it was still handled pretty well imo.

    With battles winding down, and the amount of ground covered, this episode felt like classic one piece 👌

    I absolutely love the dumb little slapstick clown horn music they use for gag parts. Cracks me up everytime.

    ABY pedal, set up reccs.

    So I am getting a synth to do some basslines etc, and want to run it through my chain with minimum fiddling. I'm thinking about grabbing 2 aby boxes, one for the front to switch between guitar and synth, and another to go between the pedals and my rc5 looper, to switch between one input for guitar, and the other input to get the synth into my bass rig.

    Is this an appropriate solution?

    My chain is about 10 pedals, no tuner. Should I get one w a buffer? Doesn't matter?

    Any ABY reccs would be appreciated, on a budget.

    If you have another idea, I'm all ears (:

    Edit: also it is worth noting, or stating, that I'd rather not have to power these, as there is only one port left on my psu, but if the active boxes are way better, I guess I would not mind. I'm not too familiar with ABYs obviously, but I know they're fairly simple circuits...do they add any noise? Thanks for reading!

    new mod, please help [half way solved]

    So I'm probably just stupid and I've never done this before, but I have a few problems.

    1. How do I give another user mod permissions for my community? Is this possible yet?

    2. How come I'm not able to see my own posts? I want to mess with the mod tools, but none of my own posts are showing unless I log out.

    I have tried on web browser on my phone, on a chrome book, and jerboa which has zero mod tools AFAIK

    I may be missing something and any help appreciated. Thanks.

    Edit: yea I was missing something stupid. I had Show Read Posts unchecked so none of my posts were showing up.

    I've still yet to determine how to grant permissions

    hi everyone

    So me and my old man are taking my 4 yr old Lil sister to see a circle jerks/descendents/adolescents show pretty soon.

    I'm most looking forward to seeing the adolescents set.

    I grew up on punk. Thanks to my father. The first show he took me to was circle jerks when I was about 13 or so. We're just passing the gift along I guess. (:

    the state of my messy ass studio

    OK so for the sake of content, here is my current guitar area of my living room. It's a hot mess. I kinda went on a bender with some psychoactive substances last week and was writing and playing alot, moving pedals around, getting tangled in cables lol.

    My current signal chain: Prs custom 24 se into CMC Germanium Sunface fuzz clone > wampler mini ego compressor > eqd grand orbiter phaser > CMC effects King of Tone clone > strymon deco double tracker > dod rubberneck delay > strymon flint reverb > boss rc5 looper.

    All into a fender hot rod deluxe that needs repairs, I mic it up with a sm57, and whatever condenser mic I feel like using, I've got a akg c3000 on there now, then they run to some decentish preamps(Isa one and wa12) then into the line in on my interface. I'm running reaper on a shitty home made PC that's like 12+yrs old with expired windows. Jammed it with ram and it runs great. It sounds pretty damn good. I blend the two signals together, or just use one, sometimes I'll use 1 mic and do a direct in and blend those. I like the results. I'll refine my process once I get down to really recording. I've been in writing mode for a while.

    I bought that carpet recently and I kinda dig it. My first carpet purchase, I must be a real person now.

    If you have any questions or recommendations or anything at all please feel free, thanks for reading.

    Perhaps I'll make another post with some other stuff later. But for now, if you care what it sounds like. I recorded this a while ago in spring, I have a more done version now but this is just guitar bass and drum for this post. No harmony or vocals or anything. Real rough. I have this and about 6 other things I'm working on right now. I'm trying to get an album done before I am too old and broken to hold a guitar. (:

    I don't do this for money
