Hi Justin, thank you for all your hard work creating opportunites for so many people, including me, to improve their guitar skills and even perform for others.

Now that’s just teasing ! I let the chooks out in deep frost and sleet this morning !
I would not get up at that time in summer ! :rofl:
Hope you caught up on your morning routine, albeit a bit later !

David my setup issues had nothing to do with Streamyard really, I had crackling sound going in OBS even when I recorded to file, so something is going on in there. Not sure what yet hope to figure it out, if I just played a simple acoustic song with mic plugged in there wouldn’t be any issues. Because I had BT going that messed a lot up, but hey onwards not backwards now :grinning: Edward gave me a good idea for next time around will have to play around with it and will report back if it’s successful :slight_smile:

Thanks Adrian

Could that be different sample rates, blocks sizes, or something similar between Reaper and OBS.

Since I completed the Blues Beginner Solo Study project about a year ago, I have not used Reaper as part of my process, so can’t offer any meaningful experience to help resolve this one, Adrian.

You might be onto something David. OBS defaults to 48k which I think is what Zoom expects but has wider margins. Its common advice to set audio sample rates in Reaper to 44k. That was certainly what I was told here by TB/AV in the old days.

I changed Reaper to 48 when I started using OBS, after similar problems to Adi’s but it was so long ago and my brain is aging. That could well be it !

I didn’t see where anyone else had done this, so I went through the video, and noted the time-stamps for everyone. If this list is already up somewhere, well, here it is again. :blush: I don’t know if it can be posted on YouTube. I tried, but the comment isn’t registering. I guess the commenting is either off or someone needs to moderate the post before it goes up.

Wow Donna great job putting that together.

No one else has done this from what I have seen today. This can actually be added to the video description section and it should embed chapters. Adi has done this on some of our OM video but it has to be the “owner” as they have the edit rights. So I guess that would be @JustinGuitar as I am not sure the mods would have access to do that @Richard_close2u @DavidP @LievenDV but sometimes dropping their names in a post works wonders !

Great share and great performance !

Donna great job! For timestamps you need to put format: hh:mm:ss so first would be 00:02:05 etc. I think there is a list of performers at the bottom of video description on tubez @TheMadman_tobyjenner just fyi but without time stamp nor song titles.

Which leads me to song title Donna, can’t blame you not giving it a go at :laughing: Z Kopyta Kulig Rwie, by Skaldowie :grinning: original here for those interested, as you can hear not remotely like punk version I supposedly did :rofl: more The Monkeys vibe to me :grinning: Z kopyta kulig rwie by Skaldowie On top of that in video you will see more adult (but not explicit!) video of how kulig looks like. In a version from my childhood there were children holding torches and adults were only concerned about drinking :laughing:

Ah, I figured it was something like that. Thanks for alerting the mods and admin. I always appreciate it when I can see an organized list and I’m in process of rewatching everyone anyway. I heard Justin say Tor, but then my mind went through about 3 different ways to spell it, and names can be a sensitive area for people. Anyway, I really dug the song you played to wrap up our bash. I’ve never heard “The Rambler” before, but I fully enjoyed your rendition!

The studio version is great, as the singer, Chris Robertson, just has to walk away at the end. :face_holding_back_tears: Black Stone Cherry - The Rambler Studio version

Yes i added that in yesterday. Donna’s efforts will make an edit / addition for time stamps super easy.

Just finished watching the event. Looked like a great show. Congrats to all the performers and thanks to Justin and team for arranging it.

A bit bummed I couldn’t attend! But being a day of travel it just wasn’t possible.

I have no access to the YT Channel, Toby, and neither any experience in adding time-stamps/chapters to YT videos, nor knowledge of how a Live Stream to YT video is created and uploaded.

Guess wonders may sometimes happen but this would require a miracle for me to add chapters, even update the description.

But I see @Richard_close2u has the power and ability!

@DonnatheDead many thanks for adding that, Donna.
