@thejaysunday @j_s_j @sam @dansup I think the whole point of the fediverse is for people to connect. It happens to be decentralized, ok, but technology shouldn't be the priority. People should be the priority!

When you record the same instrument in the same studio and process it more or less the same way, you can avoid doing all the configuration over and over again. All you have to do to save time is create and then use a track template. Here is how you do it

Mastodon me donne la sensation de revenir ร  l'รจre des (sky)blogs. Et c'est trรจs agrรฉable.
Pas de vidรฉos de 10sec qui popent dans tous les sens et gรฉnรจrent du doomscroll creux.
Pas d'algorithmes qui orientent et dรฉforment les accรจs aux contenus publiรฉs.
Du texte, des images, des sortes de forums communiquant auxquels on peut adhรฉrer suivant nos centre d'intรฉrรชts.

Doesn't it seem like destiny?

I launched loops.video - the fediverse TikTok, just a few months before TikTok is getting banned in the USA.

Familiar Features. Open Source. Federated. Privacy Friendly.

Those aren't buzz words, they are facts.

Let's make history, you with me? ๐Ÿš€

Google is trying to put the web in a cage in the same way they put your devices in a cage (Android, ChromeOS).

Thereโ€™s one really easy, simple and efficient way to fight them: uninstall Chrome/Chromium, use #firefox

Do it. Now.

โ€“ But I prefer Chrome because ofโ€ฆ

If you are not ready to sacrifice a little comfort (so little, Firefox is great) to save the web, then you donโ€™t deserve a free web anyway. You are part of those killing it.

Remove Chrome. Install Firefox.

@jvw @elsemusic @venya my 2 cents would be: for the same reason people use an SM7B, but it's cheaper.
Meaning: - it's cheap, it doesn't pick room sound/bleed so easily, the roll-off helps tame the vocals and it doesn't have the presence peak the sm58 has (not entirely sure on this one) so it doesn't compete with the main vocals.

@venya I don't entirely agree. Yes, "low/mid" gear is really great, no doubt. But having great vocals, tracked through a great signal chain isn't something you can easily replace with plugins.
Do you need a 250k console? most probably not. Do they make sense in an era where bands don't exist anymore? Not really.
But they still sound great and are a joy to use (I just love mixing on an analog desk).
That being said, a great recording room stays expensive, even without console.

A digital painting comic panel of Pepper&Carrot. It's a remix of a well-known meme. 
Pepper, still looking like a big achievement was done, has an introspective sight on the floor while being at a bar, with tea. She says:  "What a week, huh?", on her side with a motion as she just entered the panel, Shichimi replies: "Pepper, it's Wednesday". 
Carrot looks at the tea and wonder if it is not something else.
