What's the difference between a chickpea and a garbanzo bean? I've never paid $300 to to have a garbanzo bean on me.

It'd be pretty difficult, any instances that start that shit would be defederated with a quickness, but I don't want to be too optimistic lol

I've actually been using the box my computer case came in for recycling for a little over a year now. It just works!

Musical self-promotion on Lemmy? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.world
[–] swab148@startrek.website 2 points 1 day ago

No problem! It's worth noting that both of those non-FOSS plugins I mentioned are both free as in "free beer", so if you need a good auto tune and/or fancy chorus, check those out!

Awesome, thanks for the advice! And I will for sure let you know when I upload it somewhere, but I can tell you the tools I use right now! I've got Ardour for my DAW, I'm using a mix of the Ardour community plugins, LSP parametric equalizer, Calf compressor, and the two non-FOSS ones are Graillon 3 auto tune and Acon Digital Multiply. Drums are via Hydrogen, with the Ian Paice and Travis Barker drumkits from sourceforge, and I think I yanked Dave Grohl's toms for one song. Some other various drum effects I got off of Pixabay. The main album art is going to be handmade because I suck at GIMP, but if I get enough support to make like, a vinyl pressing or something, then I'll include all my failed attempts at album art in the liner notes lol

For sure, that's why I was asking about an "imadethis" community, like a community explicitly for self-promotion. Looks like there is one on lemm.ee, so I'll definitely post there once I am truly finished with the thing.

Yeah, I just wanted to hit all the ask communities, get a broad spectrum of answers.

Hello Lemmings! For the past year or so, I've been working on a solo project, and I'm kinda close to being finished with it! It's a punk rock album, made with mostly open-source tools (the only non-FOSS stuff is a couple of plugins that didn't have good open-source alternatives)!

I've seen other folks promote their games here, but so far I haven't seen any music done this way, and I was wondering if it's maybe not allowed? Some sort of Lemmy faux pas? If it is, indeed, allowed, then what communities would be amenable to maybe a twice weekly post? Should one make their own community for this purpose? What about a general purpose community for self-promotion, i.e. "imadethis" back on the old place? As you can see, much to consider. (I don't have anything out yet, so this post in itself is not self-promotion.)

What say ye, o wise Lemmings?

Sad, I kinda thought that being a ska person was antithetical to being racist, but assholes are everywhere I guess.
