Sunvox cant hear7/3/2023 ![]() So you’re going to end up having to add on ADCs to handle pots, CV/gate in. it has no ADCs in its GPIO pins can only handle digital data.If you screw up, you’ll probably fry the Pi - it’s not as aggressive about protecting its pins as an old-style Arduino. yes, it runs off 5V but it’s a moderately fragile bit of kit.(I’m working on an instrument that will probably be built around one and the official touchscreen more on that probably in the near future.) Sonic Pi is a rather interesting livecoding environment for Windows/Mac/Linux, aimed at education, but it’s a rather competent Ruby-based environment with live interpretation you can do surprisingly musical and expressive stuff in it - eg, here’s Piano Phase: notes = (ring :E4, :Fs4, :B4, :Cs5, :D5, :Fs4, :E4, :Cs5, :B4, :Fs4, :D5, :Cs5)ĥ12 ram is decent but might get bogged down running X and so forth it might be interesting to use them as a player for pd patches, say, or as an environment for other livecode environments like Tidal. (By contrast, my Hifiberry sounds excellent). The old headphone jack on the A, B, and model 2 Pis was basically doing PWM and was a bit horrible, so you’re actually not missing much there. They’d certainly have a hard time explaining how they compete against any LCC or Legacy for the flying public on any route, since they don’t own the route or even sell the tickets.You can indeed get at audio from micro-HDMI $5 USB audio adaptors are also available that work. If you dissect it line by line, I think it only applies to other regionals. I’d say this is aimed at bonus collectors, but worded to appear as most are taking it. They don’t even sell tickets, they aren’t competing against anybody except other regionals Further, no regional competes for the flying public. Nobody else is competing against republic to fly the mainline CPA which is generally block hours, not routes. My technical read is that only other regionals count. The current hiring environment for 1500 hour pilots (or any pilot who needs over 500 hours at the company before they are eligible for upgrade) is going to be the new reality for a while.interesting. Those people thinking things will get better later this year or next year for FO hiring have their heads in the sand. In my opinion the Regionals will be hurting for Captains and as a side effect be fat on FOs until we get over this retirement wave, which will be near the end of the decade. ![]() Teamsters should be taking the company to court over this if they already haven't. Which still technically is not a forced upgrade because you can still refuse it, but you lose your bonus and there may be some other financial penalties. The contract they are making new hires sign on the other hand may have some stipulation of a financial penalty if you don't. No, the union fought to keep it from what I understand.

You've heard it all before, you'll hear it again. I'll stick with my prediction that the "pilot shortage" has about 5 years left in total, and the shortage currently will be at the regional captain level, not new FO level.Īs it comes to an end, we can expect more of this type of thing, and a clawing back of pay and work rules to. The advent of these types of "deals" coming back to the industry tells me there isn't the huge shortage of FO's there once was. ![]()
