I took a used instrument that was impossible to keep in tune in to get set up and found out about the chalk. It went from slipping to being just great! Hopefully you can get service you need as well.

As a beginner, I first used the pegs to tune my cello, and then I messed them up. So I had to take it back to the music store to get it properly re-tuned. I was told the fine tuners are what you mostly use, not the pegs. The pegs should only be used when you are changing strings or if a string has slipped severely for whatever reason.

@@AlexEwan1 I know partners/long-established channels are able to do it (bc some say when they are breaking then the 1-2 YT ads roll lol)… maybe regular channels can’t, but I think they do it like the little chapters people can mark and give titles to… content that is very thoroughly planned out does frequently have ads either all at the start (the best to me for anything that isn’t very long) or placed where a natural break exists. It might not be for “regular” level users, but I’ve noticed channels that are delightfully OCD. (Ah, and some channels just skip YT ads and instead have their sponsor adverts injected… those work, too, and can be more easily fast forwarded through-some even timestamp where the ad breaks are so people can go past them since hearing the same ones 10x for regularly viewed content is a little maddening). I am most loyal about sitting through ads for channels that throw them all at the start and don’t interrupt the flow of the video after that. Music videos I’ve watched usually do that bc who wants to have a 5 minute song interrupted halfway with half a minute of adverts for for fast food?
