Excited Through Indonesian General Elections.

Yeah, I can't wait to pass Wednesday on April 17th, 2019.

Why am I so enthusiastic? Am I sure that my chosen candidate'll wins?

No, Not because of that.

Pakai Clip-On Tuner tetapi Gitar Tetap Fals?

Pernah mengalami hal itu? Well, saya pernah, dan gara-gara itu pernah ada masa di mana saya sangat benci sekali dan menghindari clip-on tuner.

Walaupun, setelah tahu penyebabnya, tak lain disebabkan oleh kelalaian saya melihat detil dan membaca/mencari manual untuk tuner yang saya beli, hehehe.

Kesalahan apa?

Hal apa yang saya lewatkan?

Sebenarnya sederhana, yaitu penentuan standart tuning. Clip on tuner yang saya beli memiliki tombol  (terletak di belakang) untuk setting standart tuning. Kita bisa memilih frekuensi nada A antara 430 hingga 450.

Bidadari Kesleo.

Saya suka lagu ini, sampai membuat cover tentang lagu ini beberapa kali. Yang terakhir  berformat full band jazz/swing instrumental.

Tentu saja saya sendiri yang memainkan semua alat itu. Selain karena tidak punya teman juga..., eh, apa ya? Pokoknya saya yang memainkan semua alat musiknya, :D

Pernah juga membuat cover lagu ini menggunakan Ditto Looper (video yang bawah). Instrumental juga.

Kenapa kok tidak nyanyi? Karena lirik lagu ini bikin otak saya geli.

Recover The SD Memory Card Data

My SD Card is toasted.

It happened when I recorded my music video cover, a song called "Kolam Susu" by Koes Plus, but I used Musikimia arrangement.

I used to record my music performance on Logic Pro and the video on my Canon EOS M6.

I'm a multi-instrumentalist, I played music instruments all by myself.  So my workflow is like:

1. Record the drum.
2. Record the bass.
3. The rhythm guitar.
4. Guitar Solo.
5. Bass Solo, I improvised this part. 
6. Vocal.

In the middle of taking vocal part, suddenly the camera LCD went dark. I continue my vocal take because I always could lip-sync it later.

After my vocal take is finished, I grab the camera and, it shutdown by itself, uh oh...

I turned it on but it displayed a warning, something like "memory error", oh my...

I thought about my drum video record. It's always hard to "lip-sync" drum part; I have to rescue the SD Card data. And the journey's began...

Parsing a String to Get a certain Substring (Serial Number, Product Keys, etc)

I have a question from a new friend on my instagram

Basically, he needs only certain substring.

Here's my code to parse the string.

 

The main code is

s          := edit1.text;

p          := pos('ME',s);

edit2.text := copy(s,p+2,13);

Not Enough Disk Space to Install High Sierra?

Just move the installation file to flash drive.

It's on Application folder. Just drag it to flash drive.

Just make sure that it have ntfs or hfs or Mac OS Extended format. FAT will not be able to copy it since it's more than 4GB.
