Hi folks,

I've almost got this project wrapped up but I am once again coming to you for advice.

I am putting a subwoofer and amp in my 2017 Fiesta ST. I have everything wired up except for the speaker wires. I do not want to splice into my factory wiring harness behind the head unit if at all possible. Nobody makes a T-Harness for the Fiesta ST specifically, however there are many harnesses available online that use the same plugs because Ford used the same "ACM" in most of their cars, just with slightly different pins.

The Fiesta has a 24-pin connector, using pins 1-4, 9-13, 15, and 21-24. The 2017 Focus and F-150, for example, use the same 24-pin connector, but using pins 1-3, 9-15, and 21-24. In both cases, 9-12 and 21-24 are the speakers.

I am thinking I can probably get one for another car and just swap the pins around for other functions, but if I can't, do y'all have a recommendation on someone who can make me one, provided an accurate pinout diagram?

Cheers!

Hi all,

Just stumbling my way through learning a lot of different stuff. I am trying to play a melody at 90bpm. The rest of my song is at 90bpm. I like how the "Arp Simplicity" preset in Analog Lab sounds at 120bpm, however, when I try to record this on my 90bpm song, the arpeggiator slows down about 25% to 90bpm.

How do I make this not happen?

Hopefully answering this easy-ass question is the toughest thing any of y'all have to do today. Cheers!

Hello,

I've seen variations on this question asked a few times, but they are all at least a year old or cover products not sold in the US.

I basically just have a series of old drives from old computers that I hang onto, and sometimes I need to access stuff from them - it will not be a bunch of drives plugged in full-time, I am basically using these old HDs and SSDs as storage. For the most part, the really important stuff is all backed up, this is just for odds and ends.

I've now had my second consecutive Sabrent EC-DFLT crap out on me, so I'm looking for something a little more reliable. It just abruptly stopped working while I was going through my music collection. I can hear the drive spinning, but the lights on the enclosure are all off and it's no longer showing up in the finder of my computer (Mac Mini M2). Same problem both times.

So, does anyone have a good, $50-or-less, reliable, SATA to USB dock they'd recommend? It looks like stuff with ASMedia chips, particularly the ASM225CM is highly recommended, but I am struggling to narrow down which products contain those. Any help is appreciated.

Cheers!

Hey all,

I have already contacted the Oregon DMV, I am just wondering if I have any recourse here at all. Also, brief edit, I should have titled this "formatted my plates incorrectly" not "spelled."

When I renewed my registration, I requested identical replacements of my existing personalized plates, which are two words, "ABC DEF." My existing plates were damaged when someone backed into me a few months back, so I ordered new ones. Exact replacements. No changes. I have a receipt showing that I requested these replacement plates reading "ABC DEF."

I even called the DMV to confirm that I had submitted the request correctly - exact replacements of my existing plates, formatted as such.

Today, my plates arrived. They read "ABCDEF." This is, of course, not what I requested.

Do I have any recourse here? Has anyone here ever dealt with anything like this? I am concerned about the DMV just telling me to pound sand or pay another $364 for another replacement set and would like some reassurance.

Thanks.
