I feel like I don't have an identity or a default if that makes sense. Like my identity will shift radically due to person or place. I know people often do this to relate better with others but this impacts me negatively.

My mind will subconsciously pick people or place for whatever reason to be a reference point on how to act during my first encounter with it.

So like If I first meet somebody and I'm feeling weak and tired I'll just instantly snap to being like that when I'm around them. Or if I'm shy during my first time going to some place my mind will always be shy when going back.

I can literally feel egotistical and above the world one second then like shit and small, which can lead to lots of problems in less than an hour.

My mind just traps me in these patterns that I can't break, I'm very good at reading myself and analyzing my own thoughts and I can't even reason with myself on why I do it. I ask myself what I'm afraid of to act like this and the only thing I can think of is 'Being noticed' or 'Not sticking to what's expected of you'.

I don't even feel like my emotions or real and that I'm somehow experiencing a lesser version of it ( No real anger/sadness/happiness just a brief reaction to your environment).

And I realize this isn't rational but it's like I cannot confront myself about it.

I'm 5'11 160lbs and wear a size small, but I got this hanes beefy size S/ch and it was very long for a T-shirt. What size do you reccomend. Also Do you know any other brands that will fit nice??

Lately I've been wanting to expand my understanding of a few complex topics, and I'm pretty lost on how to do it.

I made this planner where I would either learn/study/research or apply 3 topics in 1 hour intervals on repeat. Literally only made it 2 days 😭 then felt guilty about it. And I think maybe I'm approaching this wrong. I really want to learn and better myself & I have the time to do it, but I don't know how to focus my energy on the right things or way.

Does anyone know any good methods or planners I could follow?

I’m not sure if this is the best subreddit for this but I want to start making electroacoustic music and I’m not sure where to begin, does anyone have any good resources on learning the basics or any people who cover electroacoustic composition?

I've been using synths for a while but never dived too deep into how they work until recently and want to know if I got the idea right

Additive synthesis is done by adding multiple partials together to create a unique waveform. Allowing you to individually create a sound and control each frequency.

Subtractive synthesis is done by removing frequencies from waves to create a custom waveform. This is much easier than additive.

Wavetable synthesis is done by digitalizing a waveform/wave as amplitude data and saving it like a screenshot that can be replayed and often have slightly modified versions to simulate the periodic movement of a natural instrument in real time. So it's more like stacking sounds, you might call this additive?

So someone just bought my item and it says they gave me money for the shipping.

But my question is that it says I’ll pay with my funds. But my eBay balance is empty. So will it charge my card or will it deduct it from my sold earnings when I get them?

I've been trying to learn how to sample songs I like on FL Studio, but it's been impossible to find any good information on how to.

Every time I pick out a nice track and find some loops, I always have the same problem, no matter what I do, I can never get the cut to hit on the bar. I've tried stretching, moving the start and end times, and using FL Studio's automatic tempo fit. But it never works and just sounds bad.

I've tried looking for tutorials and videos, but every example conveniently shows a track with a bpm they already know, which is also already in a perfect 4-bar loop. No one explains how they get it to align perfectly.

Maybe my chops are just really bad, or my song selection.

I'm looking for samples of nature and weather. If there are any free sources, can someone link me to it?

Trying to tap into more niche artists.
Looking for Artists similar to Izaya Tiji who hop on calm ambient type beats.

Every time I try to make good progress, it ends up sounding generic or very basic. The basslines always feel too simple, and I don't know how to add any rhythm.

If anyone has any advice, please comment.

So I got a free trial last month, and yesterday was the final day. I checked my Cash App and saw that an Amazon payment was declined due to 'suspicious activity.'

After that, I checked my membership status and my receipt. There were no indications that it had declined, and it even said I had prime for another month.

Cancelled my plan after that. Should I use this month, or will Amazon try to charge again?
