![]() ![]() ![]() It might take you a few tries, but as long as you keep trying, it's really not that hard. Over time you might think, "Maybe I can drink again." and when you do, you mess up, and if you don't end up in jail you realize "Okay yeah I'm done for good." My sprees keep getting longer and longer, but something for me clicked last time I quit. Before this spree I have going right now, I had over six months, and before that I had five or so, etc. I have never stopped something like that before. You don't drink because you want to see what life is like always sober (and it's fucking awesome), so no "forbidding" ever should enter your thoughts. By "forbidding" yourself not to drink, you're focusing on what you can't have. How can I not get sad whenever I forbid myself to drink?Īgain, you're looking at this the wrong way. You could avoid bars for the first few months of sobriety (I did), but I still found myself around it through other ways (parties, family members, etc), so it doesn't matter. You don't drink anymore, so why would you have an internal self-discussion? Cravings will fade over time. And trust me, life is much better this way, at least for people like us.ĭo you have any good strategies of how to avoid that craving and self-discussion going on whenever I am near a nice cold beer or at a party?ĭon't even permit it. Just identify as someone who doesn't drink and won't ever drink again. You don't worry about temptations or changing your routines (as some others here suggested), you don't worry about what you're going to say or bringing a drink to a party or what you're going to order, etc, I think all that shit is actually doing the opposite affect it makes you focus on what you can't have. Once you do this you find that all the pressure is off. No champagne for celebrations, no glasses of wine, not even a beer with the guys, you just don't drink. ![]() You don't drink, period, anymore, whatsoever. The biggest thing you can do to stop drinking entirely is to identify as a teetotaler. You can do this on your own, a lot of people do and I'm living proof you can. They have a book, a group, they make sure you have some kind of higher power, etc. I really think AA/NA is religious to that extent. Depending on where you go, you could have a real shitty experience, feel bad about yourself, and just get into the whole "cult" aspect of it. While a lot of people swear by AA/NA, there's no actual evidence that supports that people that go there will have a greater chance (it's 5%) to succeed in the program than people who don't attend those places.

![]() ![]() Once you have added a new MIDI track, you’ll need to create a MIDI clip in order to start drawing in your notes, chords, or patterns. ![]() Insert New MIDI Clip: ⌘ + ⇧ + M (ctrl + shift + M) Pressing ⌘ + ⇧ + T (ctrl + shift + T) will do the trick. MIDI tracks will allow you to open any VST instrument or MIDI effect. Insert New MIDI Track: ⌘ + ⇧ + T (ctrl + shift + T)įollowing the previous tip, whenever you need to add a new software instrument, you’ll need to insert a MIDI track instead of an audio one. While you can also do this by dropping a sample into a black space, this method is handy if you want to insert that new track right after, or in between specific tracks.ĥ. Just press ⌘ + T (ctrl + T), and you’ll have a new audio track ready. You’d want to do this every time you’re adding a new percussion element or loop, so you can process them individually without the risk of messing up other tracks. One of the most used actions within Ableton is inserting new audio tracks to add new elements to the composition. To quickly switch between these two, you can just press ⇧ + Tab (shift + Tab). There’s a way to quickly switch from the Clip View (where you tweak the MIDI information) to the Device View (where you insert your plugins, effects, and other processing chains). Clip View - Device View: ⇧ + Tab (shift + Tab)ĭo ever find yourself switching your MIDI notes and tweaking your instrument at the same time as you’re creating your bassline or melody? By pressing “Tab,” you’ll be able to toggle back and forth between the two, seamlessly. You could throw in all your ideas into Session View, and as you find loops and parts that work great together, start throwing them into Arrangement View to build up your track. This is another handy shortcut if you work in both modes often or need to access the mixer during your mixdowns. Just press ⌘ + ⇧ + S (ctrl + ⇧ + S) to save as a new file.įor example, if you’re working on “Trap Banger 1.3” and decide that you could come up with a better drop, save as “Trap Banger 2.1” so you can always come back to the previous version if your new one doesn’t work out. You can also quickly “Save As” another version every time you think of taking your project in a new direction or want to create an alternate version. But you can even do it more often if you’d like to be on the safe side, because you never know when your software might crash! If you just want to make a quick save, all you have to do is press ⌘ + S (ctrl + S).Ī good rule of thumb is to save every 20 to 30 minutes. This can be made easy through the use of keyboard shortcuts. Don’t Forget To Save: ⌘ + ⇧ + S (ctrl + ⇧ + S) or ⌘ + S (ctrl + S)Īt some point in our production career, we have all lost some crucial changes or even an entire file because we didn’t save our work or something crashed.īut it you get in the habit of saving and make it a routine in your workflow, you won’t have to worry about this anymore. Let’s now jump into these 25 Ableton shortcuts!ġ. You’ll just be able to fly through your production steps.Īnd to help you get to this point faster, feel free to save this guide or print it out and keep it handy when you dive into Ableton. And at that point, you won’t even have to think about what keys you’re pressing. Nonetheless, it will take some time to memorize all of them, but soon enough they’ll become second nature. The letters you have to type to activate the commands are usually the first letter of the action you’re doing.įor example, to save your project, it’s an easy ⌘ + S on MacOS, or ctrl + s on Windows, which is very easy to remember. That’s because by knowing these shortcuts, you won’t have to worry about scrolling through endless menus with your mouse or pad to select each option.Īnd the thing is, most of these shortcuts are very straightforward and easy to learn. ![]() In fact, a study from Brainscape even estimated that you could save up to 64 hours per year by using shortcuts! Imagine how many more ideas and tracks you can come up with if you actually gained 64 production hours in one year (that’s almost 3 additional days!)Īnd they don’t just help you save valuable time they also make your production process more enjoyable. But because you’re using a lot of the same functions over and over again when producing a song, these shortcuts can actually save you way more time than you could ever imagine. This may sound obvious, and at times, they’re often overlooked by producers. Specifically, there’s one thing that you can learn that will help you save a ridiculous amount of time.Īnd that’s keyboard shortcuts. There’s actually a lot of tools at your disposal that can help you improve your workflow. If that’s the case for your production, don’t worry. Do you ever feel like it takes you forever to finish a track in Ableton?ĭo you feel like you could achieve so much more if you could only work faster? ![]() ![]() ![]() Suzuki Sidekick ET/TA 1989 - 1998 Sidekick 1.6i 16V Sidekick 1.8i.

![]() You don’t necessarily have to visit a workshop to replace oxygen sensor in your Honda Odyssey. You can also perform a continuity test on the connector of the sensor with a multimeter to check if the heater circuit is broken. If you see any error code from P0130 to P0135 or from P0150 to P0155, it indicates a problem with the upstream oxygen sensor. You can diagnose the problem by connecting an OBD2 scanner to your vehicle. If there is any fault in the oxygen sensor, it usually illuminates the engine check light in the instrument cluster of Honda Odyssey. How to check for bad O2 sensor in Odyssey? This suffocates the engine and causes performance issues. because of bad O2 sensor), the exhaust gases cannot pass through easily. If these pores get clogged due to improper engine combustion (e.g. Catalytic converters contain honeycomb-like structures with tiny pores that are coated with platinum, rhodium, or palladium depending on the catalyst stage. Because O2 sensors are relatively cheap compared to the price of catalytic converters, which can easily cost you over a thousand dollars to replace. If you suspect a problem with O2 sensor in your Odyssey, you should act immediately and get it checked by a professional mechanic. Bad O2 sensors lead to catalytic converter failureįaulty oxygen sensors are the leading cause of premature catalytic converter failures. If this sensor goes bad, it does not have any affect on the engine performance, but the check engine light may illuminate and you may see error codes related to catalyst efficiency. The main purpose of downstream O2 sensor is to ensure that the catalytic converter is functioning properly. The downstream O2 sensor in Odyssey is located further down the exhaust system, after the catalytic converter, and is responsible for measuring the level of pollutants passing through the catalytic converter. Downstream O2 sensors do not affect engine performance Any fault in this sensor can cause all sorts of performance issues in your Odyssey. The upstream O2 sensor helps in maintaining proper air to fuel ratio in the combustion chambers for maximum fuel efficiency and engine performance. But the most important one is the upstream O2 sensor, the one that is closest to the engine, usually in the exhaust manifold. There are multiple O2 sensors in Honda Odyssey, how many depends on vehicle configuration and model year. Each oxygen sensor’s heater circuit is assessed separately.Upstream and downstream O2 sensors Upstream O2 sensors are important for engine performance ![]() The Powertrain Control Module continuously checks current flow through the heater circuit on some OBD II systems. The Powertrain Control Module turns the heater strip circuit on and off for each sensor during oxygen sensor heater monitoring and checks for a predicted change in current.

It’s a component of the Oxygen Sensor Heater system. ![]() In front of the exhaust system is a Heated Oxygen. The position of the oxygen sensor fuse may vary from model to model car. Oxygen sensors with heaters are usually equipped with 3 or 4 wires. This heater usually has its own wiring circuit. A warmed oxygen sensor has its own circuit for heating, which is usually powered by a separate circuit. Most car models with OBD-II have heated oxygen sensors. The oxygen sensor provides no voltage to the computer in cold weather (until the car is started), which is why a heater is used to warm up the sensor. ![]() ![]() ![]() However, with no ability to increase the difficulty, those more familiarised with stocks might find the game a little bit too easy.

The Invisible Hand is a fairly cheap game that gives you enough content for the price tag. Although I believe the game would have benefitted from being a simple 2D simulation game, the humour would have suffered along the way. This results in swearing and cursing all over the place, while also begging for another chance. Each competitor you beat will be absolutely livid and dumbfounded they lost. It isn’t all bad though, the 3D design compliments the game’s humour. However, this results in a still photo of the party with a text dialogue at the bottom mentioning everything that happened. ![]() About halfway through the game, you unlock the ability to host parties at your living quarters.

This is Captain Phasma’s blaster rifle, which contains a spring loaded missile launcher. There’s nothing particularly of note, just a back armour piece. Have I mentioned how much I like her one-shouldered cape?Ĭaptain Phasma’s back is mostly obscured by her cape, so you don’t really get to view it under normal circumstances. The distinct layered segments and belt are moulded well but I would’ve loved a lot more printing on her torso to give it a bit more detail.Ĭompared to the battle-scarred helmet, Phasma’s torso just seems unnaturally clean and sterile. For starters, it looks quite plain and bland. ![]() While her helmet is wonderfully detailed, Captain Phasma’s torso could’ve been improved a lot more. I’m beyond impressed by the quality, workmanship and overall design of these helmets. Here’s a side view of Captain Phasma’s helmet, where you can really appreciate all the fine details etched or printed into it. The moulded details are really exceptional, from the air vents to the battle-scarred marks that you’d expect from a decorated Captain of the First Order. It’s identical to a Stormtrooper’s helmet (the new version), just in a different colour. I would love a properly chromed special edition version of Captain Phasma – if the buildable figures line does well, I can definitely see it happening in the future.Ĭaptain Phasma’s helmet is a thing of beauty. Unfortunately, LEGO didn’t manage to chrome her up like in the movies, so we end up with a pearly silver sheen which still looks awesome. Phasma wields a blaster rifle, which is similar to Finn and requires some assembly. You snap together all the different parts using ball joints and clips to Phasma’s central torso piece which is enclosed in the front and back armour pieces. Like all buildable figures, the build process is fairly generic. The red trim looks really good and the fabric is heavy enough to have significant weight and it has a bit of a velvety texture to it. ![]() ![]() Here’s Captain Phasma’s asymmetrical cape, which drapes over one shoulder in a really attractive and cool manner. Anyway, we all know why Captain Phasma, a chrome Stormtrooper with a menacing cape was put in the movie – to sell merchandise. Unfortunately, she barely featured at all in the movie and was criminally underutilised… kinda like Boba Fett. Played by the towering Gwendoline Christine of Game of Thrones (Brienne of Tarth) fame, expectations were high for Captain Phasma’s role. She was billed as the new female Boba Fett, her gleaming Stormtrooper armour striking fear into soldiers under her command as much as her enemies. Captain Phasma falls firmly into the former, and as such starts off with a very distinct advantage over other sets in this theme.īefore The Force Awakens came out, Star Wars fans had astronomical hopes for Captain Phasma. Theme: Star Wars: The Force Awakens Buildable FiguresĪfter assembling the Captain Phasma buildable figure, it became increasingly clear to me – the Star Wars buildable figures work tremendously well for “non-organic” characters and fall flat for fleshy human characters. They’re relatively quick builds, are mostly quite well designed and look great on display due to their sizes.Ĭall it a bit of nostalgia, but these action figure type LEGO creators take me back to days I would spend playing with poseable action figures. I’ve reviewed Kylo Ren (which I really liked) and Finn (which I didn’t like) – up next, a review of the Captain Phasma buildable figure! Honestly, I’ve been quite surprised by how much I’ve been enjoying these buildable figures. I can’t seem to get enough of the new LEGO Star Wars buildable figures. ![]() |
