#

Just like reducing upload limot to 10MB again

lone mango
#

Discord adding useful features challenge (impossible)

storm narwhal
#

Maybe?? You could consider keeping files eternally for only those who have nitro??

#

And for non nitro users give em a 6 month time before erasing??

lone mango
#

Oh I dont have headphones on

storm narwhal
#

Keep the 25MB limit?

storm narwhal
#

Cause their issue is eternal storage of everything ever uploaded to discord is expensive, right?

lone mango
#

Oh I understand now

storm narwhal
#

Then just start a system that purges files older than 6 months or a year or something

#

And you give people who pay forever access to the storage

#

They really couldn't think of that at all

rancid juniper
#

bro... that neck is crazy

Sparking zero netcode rollback?? No more raid bosses??

Team Lead: Competitive

#

i guess that means I did good on the assesment for walmart team lead

#

๐Ÿ˜„

#

(USA) AP Team Lead is a TL3.

You are currently in a TA1.

The hourly wage range for this position is $21.00 - $31.00/hr.

Your base rate of pay would increase by $5.00/hr for this position.

#

so at least itll be a 5$ raise

proud jackal
#

proud jackal
#

I own expensive cups

#

But I'm dumb so

exotic ingot
#

my DT990's broke again and im tired of buying a new pair every year

#

lol

proud jackal
elfin mural
#

cups or cpus?

#

both im guessing

proud jackal
#

Hifi man edition xs

random osprey
#

im currently using hd 6xx and ive been liking them but idk how they compare to dt990's sound wise

elfin mural
#

jesus, they broke every year for you?

#

my steelseries arctis 1 still works like new

exotic ingot
#

yeah i have like 4 pairs now all broken in the same spot

elfin mural
#

apart from the pleather headband peeling off

#

but that's expected

#

i've owned this for more than a year iirc

proud jackal
#

What kind of sound profile or use

exotic ingot
#

something extremely comfortable to wear every day, neutral, open back

proud jackal
#

Big or smol head

exotic ingot
#

big

#

i guess, whatever DT990 pros fit, lol

proud jackal
#

I'm enjoying my edition xs, they big tho

elfin mural
#

probably dt660

#

they're neutral

#

wait no

#

i meant hd660

#

or any of hd6xx series

exotic ingot
#

expensive

proud jackal
#

Sens have nice mids/newutrals

exotic ingot
#

like, sub $200

#

cant drop $500 on headphones

proud jackal
#

HD560?

exotic ingot
#

thats one i was looking at

elfin mural
#

hd560 i heard is pretty durable as well

proud jackal
#

Sens are super nice if you like warm neutral sound

#

I still have my Sens hd598

elfin mural
#

that sounds a lot like my kinda sound profile

exotic ingot
#

im fine with whatever, youtube/movies, music, gaming

#

just every day use headphones

proud jackal
#

Which is basically worse then hd560

lone mango
proud jackal
#

Try hd560, or if you're looking for a Mike the pcx60 or whatwver from sepp

#

Drop*

#

I haven't touched my drops since I got the edition xs tho

lone mango
#

My dt770 got thrown and is chilling

elfin mural
#

i need to clean the glue that's coming off my headband

exotic ingot
#

the plastic bit around the extension area just degrades over time and gives out

elfin mural
#

and maybe replace it

#

it uses plastic for extension?

#

that's disgusting

exotic ingot
lone mango
#

What extension

exotic ingot
#

this is my 4th pair that broke like this

lone mango
exotic ingot
#

3rd

elfin mural
#

how'd it do that i wonder

exotic ingot
#

im not rough with them at all

random osprey
#

monthly subscription for dt 990's

proud jackal
#

No warranty? Or just year

elfin mural
#

yearly

exotic ingot
#

just year, and they manage to break a few months after a year

#

lol

proud jackal
#

Hd560s if you want a decent cheap neutral

#

Should be going on sale in like 2 hours

lone mango
# exotic ingot

The metal part on mine is bent from getting thrown and I never had this happen

proud jackal
#

Because of day

exotic ingot
proud jackal
#

Prime day

exotic ingot
#

proud jackal
#

Now called Lunar PC Innovative idea and good specs.ย  You wonโ€™t need a keyboard anymore; the PC is the keyboard. Chinese company Ling Long has launched its product for international buyers, now called the Lunar PC 2-in-1 Foldable Keyboard & Mini-PC. The system packs an AMD Zen4-based Ryzen 7 8840U processor integrated into the keyboard [โ€ฆ]

Side topic

#

Keyboard amd pc

exotic ingot
#

yeah the plastic on either side of the extension thing gets lose and eventually cracks

#

then it doesnt stay on my head

exotic ingot
#

idk

#

before 2018 i went through two pairs of ATH-M40x's too

#

i just want non plastic headphones

#

they break

#

lol

proud jackal
#

Sens are plastic tho

lone mango
#

Wait why do you have 990s if you said you use them for simple daily stuff

exotic ingot
#

super comfy

lone mango
#

I think the main reason people use 990 is to have a different sound space for mastering

exotic ingot
#

massive earcups

#

the fact they dont even touch my ears is really nice

gilded kraken
#

sounds nice, specially if you have glasses

exotic ingot
#

yep

lone mango
#

Isnt it the same design as the 770 or is there more room

exotic ingot
#

770 is closed back

#

i like the open back

#

its the same design

lone mango
#

I know but I meant the space for your ears

#

Oh

exotic ingot
#

DT 770 and 990 are exactly the same other than open vs closed

#

afaik

lone mango
#

Crazy to only have 1 year warranty

exotic ingot
#

HD6xx for $180

#

looking at these too

elfin mural
#

google lost a case that epic sued google for

#

yikes

#

apple won but google loses

#

alternative app stores are now allowed inside play store

#

all while using google's services for free

#

epic really just wants to be greedy and wreak havoc huh

clear mulch
#

Is it just me or the game dragon ball sparking zero has some audio issues or delays or none at all in some parts

wary fjord
#

Just u

clear mulch
#

You sure

gilded kraken
#

verify your files

#

worth a shot

clear mulch
#

Just installed the game on steam fresh

gilded kraken
#

doesnt mean it cant corrupt

#

Ive had brand new installs corrupt

clear mulch
#

Why would it corrupt

wary fjord
elfin mural
#

I'm interested in 0% IAP fees tho

gilded kraken
#

can be many things, like the OS being unhappy for a sec or steam hiccuping during the install or even a slight minor corruption in your ram

elfin mural
#

It's not fair to google buuuut

#

Zero fees is cool

#

xd

wary fjord
#

What iap.. in app purchases?

clear mulch
#

Idk fresh windows installation been 2 days now I think game was just installed and has audio delays or some parts have no audio I donโ€™t get it

wary fjord
#

0% xD theres probably a cache on it

elfin mural
#

Yes in app purchases

#

But what I'm afraid of is

clear mulch
#

I will verify game integrity files later

elfin mural
#

App devs WILL increase costs of their IAPs by 20% too

#

Because "muh profits"

wary fjord
#

Aslong epic will stay optional its fine

clear mulch
#

Get the app tweaked

elfin mural
#

It will stay like that

#

Google play will remain the main android app store

#

But you have the option to use any other stores approved by google

#

It's not exactly google ending but it's certainly a dent

wary fjord
#

How about the safety net tho.. hmm they wont touch it right?

elfin mural
#

I doubt it

#

Epic just wanted google to open up the app marketplace landscape

#

(for their personal gain)

#

But it indirectly opens the whole scene for everyone else too

#

So it falls in everyone's favor regardless

wary fjord
#

Maybe epic give away games ๐Ÿ˜‚

elfin mural
#

Unfortunately for epic, I'm only interested in the free pc games

wary fjord
#

Ill reconsider if they give free games ๐Ÿ˜‚

elfin mural
#

Epic announced that android will get free games too

#

Sooner or later

#

I won't pay a dime on epic tho

#

I'll keep claiming games kekw

wary fjord
#

Epic will run at the bg

#

Like gservice

#

But epic service

#

Reeee

#

Another drain xD

elfin mural
#

epic services

#

one more battery drainer

wary fjord
#

Ikr sad

elfin mural
#

i'll disable background services if epic gives me free games

#

small inconvenience for less load

a mixer for dual pc setups

why is it a render

sinful blade
velvet summit
#

also ususally the markings arent raised lmao

#

it's ususally either a sticker for cheaper units, or printed onto the metal illuminati

astral inlet
# velvet summit why is it a render

because nobody has made it, the only thing that comes close is a behringer x32 and the compact one is still huge, and too much resistence and not analogue..

#

im gonna still try to patent it i just wanted opinions..

velvet summit
#

hmm

astral inlet
# sinful blade Double the destiny 2

stream setups* ... where you'd need all~ 350 possible fps from the gaming pc, and need super slow encoder rendering for better picture quality... im not so sure, Consumer Computers will ever have a highquality* encoder that doesn't take up resources... i could be wrong tho, that there is an encoder chip thats easy to make, and~ have room for it, but im not sure if that encoder consolidation is a good idea, especially for redundancy that yeah, a streamer could~ play destiny 2 on the stream pc as backup while the other is being worked on...

RDR on PCs Leaks were true, and Rockstar Games have finally confirmed it. The Red Dead Redemption is coming to PCs on October 29th.ย  Red Dead Redemption was released in 2010 and was never officially available on PCs, but this will change later this month. The action-adventure game, which is already available on PlayStation, Nintendo [โ€ฆ]

astral inlet
#

Playback editing.. the surround sound is from the game....

mortal grail
#

You're able to take audio from the capture input

#

It's direct via codec or via hdmi

#

It's impressive what I see there but it's a bit overkill tbh

#

Also several 7 channel audio inputs but most audio won't be 7 channel so it's also a bit redundant

astral inlet
# mortal grail It's direct via codec or via hdmi

the capture card... and then the playback device is set to this one... or~~~~ with a a regular 7.1 soundcard or better to the mixer via 3.5mm cables... the gaming pc would need 3.5mm outputs.. as for the stream pc would not...

mortal grail
#

You need to use upmixing software to create 7 channel feed unless you want to export 7 channel

astral inlet
astral inlet
#

so 7.1

mortal grail
rancid juniper
mortal grail
#

Otherwise it's 2 channel

#

Most audio, rather 99% of audio is 2 channel these days

#

Not trying to be mean, got a fair handful of experience so just offering feedback btw

mortal grail
#

Yes sure, 7.1

lone mango
astral inlet
#

so 8 channels

mortal grail
#

I have used 7.1, it's very annoying lol

mortal grail

It's now popping

Yeah I forgot to lower it in game

mortal grail

All good

I used to dabble in this a bit if you want some of my sample work

astral inlet
#

there's max 3 splits of resistance, which shouldn't be too terrible...

#

well, 4 for some channels...

#

well u dissapeared so.. i deleted it

mortal grail
#

That chart lacked a lot of electrical fundamentals lol

astral inlet
#

of course it did...

mortal grail
#

It also didn't explain that again, 99% of audio on pc is not 7.1

#

It will play as 2 channel audio

#

Unless you upmix

mortal grail
#

Lol I'm not

#

You're not understanding

#

Even if you have 7.1

#

Audio doesn't magically become 7.1

#

It needs to be available in that format and played back to you across all the channels

chrome mirage
#

My motherboard doesn't even have audio anymore

rigid sinew
mortal grail
#

Since the population majority tends to use stereo, you will hear stereo almost all the time, whether you create a 7.1 solution or not

astral inlet
#

yes the sound card has 4 different 3.5mm dual channels

mortal grail
#

You create the device that can play 8 channels, the files will play back as 2 channel audio

#

The software won't change to cater unless you upmix

#

This was the reality I learned first hand with my own 7.1 set

astral inlet
#

when a video game has surround sound such as call of duty.... it will certainly work...

mortal grail
#

No

#

Surround sound is often 2 channel software mixed

#

It creates the idea that it's 7 directions but it's still 2 channel

elfin mural
#

my phone started charging my laptop once i turned the laptop off

#

usb pd moment

mortal grail
#

It needs 7.1 native, not 7.1 surround. Those are 2 completely different things in practice

#

Surround is virtual, native is full channel

#

And you're telling me all games do what one game does?

astral inlet
#

not at all when did i say that?

mortal grail
#

Then why are you challenging it

#

Lol

mortal grail
#

If I say 99%, you give me 1%, it's still true

astral inlet
#

because i like~ competetive gameplay? and i like sound immersion for streamers and viewers!?! are u kidding?

mortal grail
#

No?

#

If you think it works that way for all games then you'll be pleasantly surprised lol

astral inlet
#

guaranteed that same 99% doesnt know what they want anyway because they all have jobs that has nothing to do with audio...

mortal grail
#

Good audio choices don't start with 8 channel listening devices anyway, most of the entire audio industry uses stereo as a standard

#

There's a reason 8 channel headsets don't sit atop the audio throne lol

#

Just about all audio is encoded in stereo

#

I'm just saying it's not gonna be very useful

astral inlet
#

well if u payed attention to the render, you'd find out that i also have a stereo downmix a part of the mixer as well.... where you can use any headset to emulate surround...

mortal grail
#

So you need a really good codec then

#

You're adding layers to the device for unneeded complexity

#

Most people who would buy something like this will plug in their favourite or best neutral set and I guarantee 99% of those aren't 8 channel lol

astral inlet
mortal grail
#

Ya but you will have only so many pinouts for data

#

With the complexity you've added here you may even need several codecs

#

Vastly increasing board price and power delivery requisites

#

Which also introduce power noise

astral inlet
#

i just told you i wasnt...

mortal grail
#

Feeding back on itself

astral inlet
#

what r u going on about

mortal grail
#

It's overly complicated

#

You're expecting one codec to have enough pinouts for what looks like the equivalence of 5 codecs lol

#

The price of this would be massive

astral inlet
#

i just need thunderbolt bro... at best... i could still run usb 3.0 and have all the channels i need... this has nothing to do with software downmix...

mortal grail
#

Needing thunderbolt just proves the point lol

astral inlet
#

dude... audio singals are so tiny

mortal grail
#

So do you need it or not then ๐Ÿ’€

#

I don't have your schematic

astral inlet
#

the only thing i need~

#

is the speaker preamp signals... thats it... thats all....

mortal grail
#

So you definitely need a good codec for downmix

#

Otherwise the point is moot

#

It'll sound worse than stereo

astral inlet
#

well i have room for that in the render...

mortal grail
#

Which increases the cost

astral inlet
#

i was hoping for dolby depending on who calls em...

#

or thx

mortal grail
#

Just buy a license

velvet summit
mortal grail
#

That's what they'll probably tell you if they call anyway

astral inlet
#

"just buy a licence"

mortal grail
#

Audio industry giants have plans for individuals and they're called license plans

#

I've been down this rabbit hole lol

deep parcel
velvet summit
astral inlet
#

no i need to consult with them, to put the device in this device... forget the license until it's actually a part of the device..., invention consultants deal with this not me...

also i remember having one box of the power check duracells

#

i thought they were pretty cool though pretty gimmicky lmao

There's no "thx" or "dolby" module

If you ask me, the loss of the 8 channel audio options (keep 1 if you like), a good bit of research into proper codec choices and input filtering, and some nice price research on top would take you a long way in a discussion with a consultant. That's a title given to a formal salesman, those types of people will try to sell you something expensive if you don't seem to have a great grasp on your parts choices.

Electrically (And I wouldn't say this if I wasn't trying to offer perspective) your idea seems insanely complicated when people who stream even on dual setups want simple plug and play. It may cover all the bases, but too much, and the additions of upmix and downmix can result in a marked loss in quality if you consider things like channel splitting.

I think the other parts of the interface make sense, there's way too many inputs for conventional streaming, but if you were working with multiple people in one room, it looks excellent.

The cheaper you can make it, the better is the way I see it

#

The 8 channel part is the bit that concerns me so much because the vast, vast majority of audio in the world is not 8 channel, whether you downmix, upmix or what, splitting the audio like that usually makes it worse not better

#

If it was recorded and exported as 8 channel, great, but that stuff is so rare when basic device choice is 2 channel

#

You might have a game or two that do 7.1 native, but most only do surround at best, which is 2 channel virtualising 7.1

#

I wouldn't speak up at all here if I wasn't trying to offer some level of intellectual conversation and feedback, I'm not an electrical engineer but have experience in a few of these things, enough to know my way around a bit

lone mango
#

Idk what all of this is all I know is eq, compress, balancing frequencies and levels

mortal grail
#

Compression is a great way to put how I see 8 channel

#

It sounds super compressed when upmixed

elfin mural
#

Side talk, but I notice dolby atmos is terrible when I turn it on lol

mortal grail
#

Like you take your 720p video and make it 144p for 2 minutes

elfin mural
#

It worsens the sound I hear

mortal grail
elfin mural
#

That's why I avoid surround sound myself

#

Native stereo is usually the best anyway since almost all audio is in stereo

mortal grail
#

Anyway I'm moving on from this, the pcie slot in mobo chat is developing into a very interesting story

astral inlet
#

well this is all mostly analog... i definately anticipate 6 or 7db fidelity loss in the configuration, but recovered through inductors... its going to sound compressed yes, depending on what you use it for... but thats all~ electronics, there's always loss

#

this would be the simplist surround sound solution for~ dual PCs for~ the viewer to also recieve surround sound.... its kind of~ futuristic, but... maybe its not that hard to only~ plug in exactly as they are labeled... while microphones are not.. its pretty standard,

#

or rather the gamer recieve surround sound and~ notifications... and or watch parties..
