For content creators — what programs or pro tips would you recommend?

I’ve been playing for a long time, and decided to start building an online presence for originals and pedagogical content.

Hoping to ask generally, what aspects on content creating for guitar did you wish you learned earlier? What would you recommend for someone getting started?

Some specific questions:

  1. I see videos online where there’s moving tabs alongside a video of someone playing. What programs do people use to do this? Guitar pro?

  2. Did you create dedicated accounts for this or use personals?

  3. How often do you post?

Any other advice is very welcomed. Thanks!

How is it this shit crashing so much???

Can’t believe I paid this much for a triple-A game that seems not super functional and just kind of unfinished in some ways.

First of all the cutscene in the beginning — as many have noted online the game crashes during that cutscene predictably. I tried rebuilding the database, still crashing.

Annoying but not a big deal, I skip it and keep it moving.
Then while just running around on Koboh (not a cutscene, not even in combat) the game crashes yet again. It’s fun but what is this dog shit? Going to try performance mode then redownloading the 147GB file again, I guess. Not sure what to do if that doesn’t work aside from playing a different game.

Another smaller thing, I killed a Gorocco the other day and it fell off a cliff. Instead of landing on the ground it just phased right through the ground. If Cal jumps off a surface instead of dying he just…disappears? Lazy and immersion breaking. Was it rushed to release or something? Makes me feel like these companies don’t care about these games or the fans who might buy them, which I suppose makes sense. But I’ve played other games with massive open worlds without crashing a single time through the whole game. What gives?

Edit: Realized I should maybe clarify, this is in reference to Survivor, and not Fallen Order which I don’t recall having any issues with

2 Incredible Opportunities: Academia or Industry?

Have a huge dilemma, and I’m hopeful this sub can help. For the past year I had been applying to CRA/Assistant/Specialist industry roles. I have 5 years of senior CRC experience in an investigator initiated academic lab.

Funding for that role dried up at the end of April. So, having had no luck with industry applications, I accepted a senior RA position at a well recognized academic hospital, working under a PI who is close friends with my previous PI. I JUST started like a month ago. The research is exactly the kind of work I want to be doing if I’m going to be on the academic side. They’ve also all been incredibly kind, and want to help make my time with them impactful for my career. At the end of that trajectory, for me has always been a PhD in clinical psych.

Last week, a recruiter for a specialist standalone FSP reached out after I applied a couple months ago for a CSS role. They now seem to be incredibly interested in me. I had my first interview last Wednesday, 2nd interview last Friday, and 3rd interview today. The manager today loved me and told me directly she is recommending that my application be passed onto the sponsor.

This seems like an amazing entry level opportunity, perfect for an academia person to get into industry. I’m also compleeetely terrified of tanking my PhD prospects if I leave this new lab after only a month, and considering I got the role through my network connections.

I’m torn between researching what fascinates me and gives me a sense of purpose (even while I financially drown — unable to afford a car, travel, emergency savings) and pursuing this potential role which would pay 161% of my current meager salary, with great benefits, opportunities for growth, and minimal travel.

What would you do in my shoes? Have you been in a similar position before? I’m currently feeling bad for even considering jumping to this new position, but these opportunities are hard to come by and the salary is so much more than what I’m currently making.

Thank you!

Have my first gig with my Helix LT in 2 days - hoping to troubleshoot a few things

Hi everyone, have been diving into my Helix and have been pretty successful thus far. Running a Helix LT out to a Harbinger 15” powered speaker cab using an XLR cable. I have a few questions to help me prepare for a gig in a couple days.

  1. Sometimes, but not all the time, I get some weird static/buzzing/noise — video included. Does it have to do with the outlet? Both the Helix and my cab are plugged into surge protectors. At first I thought it was just OD/distortion, but this happens even on relatively clean presets. Should I change the settings on my cab? I opened up the 1/4” on my guitar panel yesterday and made sure everything is tight. Is there maybe some dust or a loose solder in my pickup switch causing the issue? I got the Helix used in great condition, cab is brand new. Have tried 2 different 1/4” cables.

  2. I am dialing in about 12-15 presets (roughly one per song) so I can cycle through linearly. I think that means I’m in stomp mode vs snapshot mode? I’m happy with the tone, but I find the levels are wildly different, especially if I have to engage distortion pedals. Sometimes if I have a noise gate that wildly changes the levels too. I don’t want to be constantly adjusting, or triangulating levels from multiple effects on multiple presets.

What’s the best way to equalize levels predictably for gigging? We will be running the band out of 2 PA speakers and a mixer, as well as in ears. Should I run myself out of my 15” speaker as not to crowd the rest of the mix? Thank you so much for any advice 🙏
