Yesterday I dug out some very old Pro Tools session and due to various plugins not being used now (Waves mostly) the tracks were pretty bare… and it sounded so much better than the version I mixed back then with all the plugins!
I used to think production and mixing was to do as many chops as possible. Now I know it’s mostly about getting rid of shit that’s in the way.

There are roads everywhere. I wish people would stop building roads tbh.

Cheers, it’s tongue in check but some serious points buried in it….
I could conform and make Bitcoin memes, songs about Bitcoin and dedicate my morning stream to Satoshi but it would ring pretty hollow .
Good points though, you might have seen me say before this is part of a wider process for me, I need to learn new skills. Spent the day in the studio and despite working on some great projects, it’s hard to see how anything will cut through the noise.
I’m actually happy how it’s building, there’s a small community forming and they keep coming back, I always take that as a positive. There’s been so many technical challenges, I want really aware of the compute and skills needed when I started.
Keep living and learning!

I lived in Santorini back in 94 and the opinions about America back then were pretty low. That was pre the second Iraq war. I’ve Turkish friends and American friends. I don’t agree with the actions here. The only basis for questioning of it is the glitchiness and there’s something a little weird about the guy’s face but it’s just a guess. I’m not an expert in assessing video.

Hmm it doesn’t quite look real to me but if it is so it’s unsurprising. The USA government kills innocent people throughout the Middle East and then expects a warm welcome.

Makes sense. I came to this with zero knowledge, I’m not a gamer and other than podcasts I’d never watched a live stream…
If I could save the url where it says so on zap.stream id be so happy. Have you tried that yet?

2024-09-02 06:11:06

- reply

I’ve was trying a plugin on OBS that split the stream so had 2 stream keys in OBS but that was cruddy. Then tried forwarding from zap.stream to Owncast. That worked but is the opposite of what I want to do. The. Zap.Stream has an option ‘I have my own server. And you’re meant to add the url and it mentions HTL and according to Derek the CEO that works well but the option to save settings is always greyed out and I can’t find any documentation.

PeerTube I’m finding difficult, they’ve implemented V4V but I’ve been unable to set it up for streaming. I started using it 3 years ago when I decided I wanted my band music videos to be on my own server and not dance to g00gle’s tune using YouTube. That was the start of my journey and I’m nowhere near finding the ideal solution.
I’m always having conversations with musicians saying don’t do Spotify’s advertising for them, point people to Bandcamp, Wavlake or Mirlo (start up similar to Bandcamp). Most musicians know about Bandcamp but there’s a hell of a lot of ground to cover getting them to Wavlake, although I do my best.
I honestly don’t have any answers but I’ll keep trying alternatives. There’s so much going around my head about this stuff at the moment but it’s a struggle to put succinctly!

Hmm Fediverse has even less capital, it’s just people spinning up servers at their own expense…

Yeah I’ve been deep in 60s/70s records lately and it’s incredible listening to what was just a group of people playing a song in the same room. Records just don’t get made like that anymore.
I always thought the golden age of recording was 68-76. They had the technology to capture the audience really well but hadn’t made the tech to ‘cheat’ much.

Does anyone you’re aware of use PeerTube? They’ve added V4V and I can host from my own server, something I don’t think is possible with say Zap Stream, where I’m paying for uptime.
I’d love to stream on my own platform but with Sats but coding is beyond my talents!

The banning of X is an issue in one sense, sure speech has been censored but on the flip side, the business model still incentivises bullshit, hate and misinformation. It’s not a town square, it’s a wealthy consortium’s societal plaything.
The banning of X is a good thing in my mind. Tools exist and people have options now.
The way certain messages propagate through the platform has always been sus. The government’s don’t like Musk but Musk wants to be like government, he clearly gets a kick from the platform’s ability to create political instability.
Nostr is a super important tool and more broadly an independent internet is the way forward. Removing the incentives to lie for engagement reduce and the lack of a centrally controlled black box algorithm takes away the ability to manipulate the masses.
