Trying to find a japanese song

Hi!

Maybe it's a long shot, but a few years ago I found a japanese song on youtube and I can't find it anymore. I think it might be from some RPG video game, the melody was calm and a bit sad, similar to Fukurou by Kokia. The video had some gothic chibi characters, probably from the video game.

The only lyric I remember was something ending with "monogatari".

Removing chrome like paint from plastic

I'm in the process of restoring my motorcycle and need to get this paint off from the plastic piece. I've tried paint stripper but it didn't make a difference.

I've managed to peel some of it off and it sorts of looks like a thin metal sheet, not sure if it's actual chrome or not so I don't know what chemicals to use for this.

Help with connecting audio interface to speakers

Hi!

I want to get a set of speakers (Serioux HT2100C) and connect it to an audio interface (Behringer U-Phoria UM2), but I'm not sure what cables I would need.

The UM2 seems to have 2 RCA outputs and the speakers are connected to a bass through what I assume is also RCA, but the input looks like a 2 x RCA to single 3.5 jack.

Do I just skip the jack and buy 2 cables to connect the interface to the bass box? And what cables exactly?

I want to play my bass guitar if it makes a difference. Also, would the guitar work without connecting the audio interface to my laptop or not?

Hello all, I have a bass guitar lying around that I'd like to start playing again. Years ago I used the Fender amp that came with my Squier guitar, but the sound is not great and I also don't want to damage it.

Since a decent bass amp costs more than I wish to spend at the moment, I thought I'd get an audio interface. My plan is to connect it to my pc and play bass / guitar / karaoke, but from what I've gathered, I can't use my monitor's built-in speakers, since I'll be using the audio interface as the output device on Windows.

So the question is, can I buy any kind of external speakers, connect them to the audio interface with an adapter for 3.5mm, along with my bass guitar and plug it via usb to the laptop? I want to get a set of speakers anyway for when I'm listening to music or watching movies, but I don't know if they would be compatible with the audio interface.

I found this Behringer U-Phoria UM2 audio interface and these Serioux HT2100C for cheap. I'm not an audiophile nor am I going to play in a band, I just want to play my bass occasionally for cheap.
