The ol’ “doob tube”. Ahh, the memories. We thought we were being sneaky but it was more of a, “Congratulations, now your room just smells like dryer sheets and shitty weed, you fucking genius.” And we all just did that anyway.
Mhhh… yes, we millenials who are approaching or are already in our 40s… what’s all that red eye stuff about?
JPSound@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What cover song just takes you to Universe B compared to the original?3·8 days agoTool’s cover of No Quarter by Led Zeppelin. Page was channeling future Adam Jones with those riffs. It’s s a shame that the only official release of that song is on Tool’s coveted “Salival” album which is notoriously hard to get ahold of for anything even resembling a decent price if you can even find a good copy. Damn, I wish they would re-release that album.
I build cables and it’s truly an art for me. My custom cables are used on many of the biggest movies in the world on the production sound carts the sound mixer uses to record everything. I’ve also wired full professional camera rigs. I’ve wired many full cart builds from scratch, meaning every power, RF, timecode, video and analog and digital audio cable in the entire cart was built by my hands. If it connects 2 points, i built it.
I’m going to admit to tooting my own horn here because I’ve not seen cleaner builds by anyone else. When I begin a build, I plan and visualize the entire setsup and it’s organization. It’s like a puzzle from the order of operations to the configuration I use based on input from the mixer and gear used. I love it and I approach it as an artist because it truly is. Ive spent many many years learning how to build every single cable you’d ever find on a film set and build them extremely well.
Shit, I just recently learned what a goon cave is. I can’t be expected to keep up.
