Poor-man obsidian-to-hugo automatization workflow

Fri, 17 Jan 2025 00:00:00 +0000

It’s just a symlink of the content folder of Hugo inside the Obsidian one… with a template for the post’s front-matter.

Interesting note: the symlink itself is followed only on my mac since the target exists and it appears in obsidian. As i use simple iCloud as storage backend, on the iPhone the symlink still exists but it’s dead and doesn’t even show up in the Obsidian mobile app. So i prefer that way because I don’t use to write posts from my phone, and not having the hugo content folder on my phone it’s not a problem.

Live restoring the missing bass track of Soulive's Azucar

Thu, 27 Jun 2024 16:48:56 +0200

Before

Original video

After

Live recording bass playing along

I used OBS to record that video, the bass is plugged directly into the external soundcard without any pedal effects (I burnt them all), ext soundcard is linked in OBS with the ASIO plug-in. Don’t know how I got that fucking sound only acting on the TONE’S KNOB.

Tip

Note from 03/07/2026: While attending a seminar by Carlo Cattano in Licodia Eubea, I thought it would be a good idea to change the strings. So the video was recorded with strings that were more than 10 years old; this explains the magically muffled, sub-octave sound capable of replicating a Hammond organ.
