Yeah "grand mal" seizures involve your consciousness going away for the duration. What you're describing is just like what neurotypicals (and all people with a sense of touch) experience when touching a hot stove. So the difference is that you have more sensations that qualify for the "hot stove" category.

This is true, but it's also equally true that the darker the coffee roast, the closer the end product gets to literal charcoal, therefore making the provenance of the beans far less relevant. That's why starbucks definitionally cannot have a mass-market light roast or even a "true" medium roast.

I feel like this opinion isn't that unpopular, although the parry-bros and the dodge-bros will be feuding over this for a long time.

There's plenty of shit I'd try even if it is not a pitched noise. Lay it on me when you get something.

Also, wear earplugs if it's very loud. Having your ears ring for the rest of your life is Very Annoying, to say the least.

Yeah, I didn't know the specifics or your goals, but despite the strings not being tuned, the different sized strings and different dynamics will presumably differ from one another, by octave at the very least.

The virtual instrument/sampling idea was just because it sounds very difficult to move around. But yeah I'd definitely take any samples you grab and make digital because I will absolutely throw it into a sampler VST and fuck around with it if I get the chance. Or put it into Serum because it can convert a sample into a configurable synth.

I'll send back anything I come up with also. Creative sound design is a hobby of mine.

I barely know anything about this, but I'd expect that the pickup has a limited range (as in distance) on what it can pick up. I would treat it as a project to make a virtual instrument and get samples of each set of 3 or 4 notes at various dynamics, then scoot it over, etc.

DecentSampler is a great free tool for this, and I'm certain there are resources online for how to make one in that format. If you pull this off please please post it here and tag me.

You may need a DI box to make this work, or plug it into a guitar amp and stick a microphone in front of that. (Or both?)

All three of those names sound like ligma jokes, but I can't figure them out.

He was also friends with Mike Hawk and Imapu Seelaver

It's gotta be him, he is also known for being a surfer. Also, I looked at his face, and that's him.

can we do media literacy next

But only if you know one weird trick that the news papers don't want you to know.

But seriously, it is a filter on non web-savvy individuals, the exact type of people who need to hear truth the most.
