I used to have a flanger, I wonder what happened to it. Hey, I also used to have a phaser! I guess I sold them at some point.

n/a, Wednesday, 11 April 2007 17:04 (seventeen years ago) link

PUT SOME FLANGE ON THOSE DRUMS

n/a, Wednesday, 11 April 2007 17:04 (seventeen years ago) link

Flangers are like much less subtle phasers, which means they are more awesome.

n/a, Wednesday, 11 April 2007 17:05 (seventeen years ago) link

i have a delay and i think it sounds really good, but i've been unsuccessful in tryin to figure out how to use it without inserting this texture into the sound that detracts from the "i actually want to kill you" thing i'm going for at the moment

pretzel walrus, Wednesday, 11 April 2007 17:06 (seventeen years ago) link

ok every time I go on the 2k8 pres can spec thread my desire to be illiterate becomes greater and greater

TOMBOT, Wednesday, 11 April 2007 18:14 (seventeen years ago) link

and a perusal of the workings of delay, chorus, flanger and phaser effects reveals they all do utilize the same principles but with different variables in terms of how the second copy of the sound is modulated or fed back in

TOMBOT, Wednesday, 11 April 2007 18:16 (seventeen years ago) link

HOW MANY TIMES DO I HAVE TO ANSWER THE SAME EXACT QUESTIONS. HOW MANY TIMES.

the schef (adam schefter ha ha), Wednesday, 11 April 2007 18:22 (seventeen years ago) link

JUST FUCKING WRITE IT DOWN.

the schef (adam schefter ha ha), Wednesday, 11 April 2007 18:22 (seventeen years ago) link

WRITE ALL OF IT DOWN. EVERYTHING I SAY, EVER, SO THAT I DON'T HAVE TO RESAY IT OVER AND OVER.

the schef (adam schefter ha ha), Wednesday, 11 April 2007 18:22 (seventeen years ago) link

ALSO DON'T GET THE FUCK UP AND GO BOTHER SOMEONE ELSE WITH YOUR QUESTION AFTER I ANSWER IT BECAUSE NOW I'M GETTING KIND OF PRICKED AT FOR "NOT ANSWERING YOUR QUESTIONS" EVEN THOUGH I DO, HUNDREDS OF TIMES A DAY, AND THEN YOU JUST ARE TOO STUPID TO LISTEN.

the schef (adam schefter ha ha), Wednesday, 11 April 2007 18:23 (seventeen years ago) link

ARRRGH.

the schef (adam schefter ha ha), Wednesday, 11 April 2007 18:23 (seventeen years ago) link

TOMBOT, Wednesday, 11 April 2007 18:23 (seventeen years ago) link

it feels better if you do

TOMBOT, Wednesday, 11 April 2007 18:23 (seventeen years ago) link

Yeah, I was going to geek out about phase relationships earlier, but that's pretty much the best way of looking at it.

Also, check yer emails pedal/recorder people.

That's a beartrap, y'all.

John Justen, Wednesday, 11 April 2007 18:24 (seventeen years ago) link

oh my fucking god he's got two people, one from another department, hanging over him right now, to answer a completely different question.

ONE WHICH I HAVE ANSWERED LIKE THREE TIMES ALREADY BTW, ON VARIOUS DAYS.

the schef (adam schefter ha ha), Wednesday, 11 April 2007 18:25 (seventeen years ago) link

:( he is a DC dude who is bad and hated

horseshoe, Wednesday, 11 April 2007 18:26 (seventeen years ago) link

it is really, really not that hard

the schef (adam schefter ha ha), Wednesday, 11 April 2007 18:26 (seventeen years ago) link

at least say this is some new employee and not D or I

TOMBOT, Wednesday, 11 April 2007 18:27 (seventeen years ago) link

it's not either of those ppl

the schef (adam schefter ha ha), Wednesday, 11 April 2007 18:28 (seventeen years ago) link

ok srsly it is pretty simple. i will explain here. we also have to do regular line classifieds here, and not just the pretty big full page ads that you actually notice in magazines. so, if you've ever placed a classified, you should know that most of the time things are estimated costs because when they typeset, shit can change depending on style guidelines, kerning, blabbity blah blah blah. so, we get a daily report here noting if any of the ads that have been booked have changed in line count.

now, if you were someone booking ads here, would you run pplz credit cards and send paperwork to billing BEFORE or AFTER you receive this report?

regardless of your answer, if someone tells you that you don't have to "rebook" the ad, you just have to open the old copy and reprint paperwork, would you ask this question SEVENTEEN TIMES after you get the first or perhaps second explanation?

and regardless of your answer to that, is it really that hard to figure out that you have to click on an arrow, neatly located next to the order number in the list, to take you to that particular order?

fucking hell.

the schef (adam schefter ha ha), Wednesday, 11 April 2007 18:31 (seventeen years ago) link

not to mention that by not just going into the system and TYPING IN THE ORDER NUMBER versus typing in contact's name or perhaps city or maybe their institution he is going about opening orders the most ass-backwards way in the history of the world.

goddamnit i am tempted to take the promotion just because i would like to harass to receive an office. with a door. that i can shut.

the schef (adam schefter ha ha), Wednesday, 11 April 2007 18:32 (seventeen years ago) link

I constantly am competing in something… Here it’s bowling down the hallway in my house, rolling one of the dog’s toy
balls at water bottles.

the schef (adam schefter ha ha), Wednesday, 11 April 2007 18:38 (seventeen years ago) link

I want "There's always an afterparty, we just don't always know where it is" on a belt buckle.

Laurel, Wednesday, 11 April 2007 18:45 (seventeen years ago) link

aw Ben Roethlisberger likes John Legend and the movie The Break Up

horseshoe, Wednesday, 11 April 2007 18:48 (seventeen years ago) link

My childhood dog was also named Zeus (by me), and thus this football playing fellow is a good man.
