  1. Thanks for that review; Were you ever an author for this publication, perchance? I never thought it would happen to me, but ...

  6. The Back button is a side effect of having a hierarchical menu system. This appears to have a flat menu system. If all we have are doing is selecting a property, (read only , or read/write name value pairs) Then push toggles us between two modes, select name/property, and set value for selected named property, set being a no-op for read only properties. (The display the just displays property name + value) The set of properties is bounded, and can be treated as a flat list or menu. This may make it easier to do the IR remote, as you could just map the push + & - keys, Numeric keys map to a property Dedicated volume +/- keys perhaps. If you are using the Transporter module, does that mean there is haptic feedback? Or that once you selected the right menu item on the transporter, Transporter knob inputs would be treated as amp knob inputs ( ditto for the controller I guess). Hope I'm not adding to much noise to the signal here.
  7. The knob on the Transporter, or the Boom provide a model. Consider PUSH = select mode, TURN = +/- SO PUSH = Menu Mode +/- Scroll through Menu to find Mode/value/setting you are interested in PUSH = Select Mode Setting +/- Change value you are interested in. PUSH back to menu mode. Default would be volume, so +/- changes volume , until you push it and then you're into menu/select mode. Seems very workable to me. Even better if you can define the order/Text/mapping of modes offline + upload them. Then everyone's happy. They can even internationalize the text on the display Use case for Torpedo. PUSH Select Mode Scroll to OUTPUT MODE +/- BALANCED SE SPLIT SE PUSH Select Mode Scroll to INPUT for SE 1 +/- PUSH Select Mode Scroll to INPUT for SE 2 +/- PUSH Select Mode Scroll to VOLUME for SE 1 +/- PUSH Select Mode Scroll to VOLUME for SE 2 +/- That work?

  10. The Hifi Wigwam Pie-fi Show! recently took place in the UK, and the photos are now up. Picasa Web Albums - hifiwigwam.com - Pie Fi show o...

  11. I'd second Monsieur Baguettes advice. In earlier times, you'd have been able to take advantage of The On-Line Guitar Archive For now I'd suggest you get hold of a copy of Guitar Pro - Tablature Editor Software for Guitar, Bass, and Banjo, then you'll be able to take advantage of resources like GProTab - GuitarPro tabs sharing website

  13. I think I read elsewhere about other like minded cheapskate audiophiles re purposing brass plumb weights/bobs for just this task, at a considerable saving. This sort of thing Amazon.com: Stanley 47-969 4-Ounce Brass Plumb Bob: Home Improvement Amazon.com: Stanley 47-973 8-Ounce Brass Plumb Bob: Home Improvement
  14. But then how do you get to tell your audio buddies, that your sonic imagination has a much wider soundstage, and MOAR BASS! than theirs? Never mind how can there be bragging rights if there is no cost involved. Clearly, this is madness!
  15. So (sarcastically) eliminate the sonic distortions + artifacts inherent in the recording process, by eliminating the sonic part altogether, and just record the players inputs! Piano roll - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia or Musical Instrument Digital Interface - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia FTW We can then engage in discussions as to whether mylar or paper player piano rolls have a warmer tone

  18. Article suggesting that it is the artifacts we are familiar with, that we like.. I remember wondering what audiophiles were up to, buying extremely expensive home audio systems to play old vinyl records. They put turntables in sand-filled enclosures with elaborate cabling schemes. I wondered what they heard in that music that I didn't. Someone explained to me that audiophiles liked the sound artifacts of vinyl records -- the crackles of that format. It was familiar and comfortable to them, and maybe those affects became a fetish. Is it now becoming the same with iPod lovers? The Sizzling Sound of Music - O'Reilly Radar
