    New Audio Workstation

    System was built for longevity and stability. Server components have always performed long term way better for me then consumer/pro-sumer components.

    New Audio Workstation

    Really comes down to complexity of the project. As noted above, fairly "sample" driven production tends to be pretty light CPU wise, but can start consuming a decent RAM footprint, depending on the sizes of the samples being used. In terms of tone generation and synthesis, specially in the...

    my new toy Focusrite Scarlett 2i2

    I've been a Presonus guy for years, but recently bought a Saffire Pro 40. The drivers for it have been just rock solid, far better then PreSonus ever was. I like the Scarlet, I have a few friends who use them for their mobile recording setup, and has always performed quite well. Specially for...

    Static sound while playing games

    Sounds like noise likely coming off the videocard, or USB conenctions. If it's coming while playing games, my guess would be the videocard is generating interference and the unshielded audio components are picking it up. Not much you can really do about it, short of maybe trying an external...

    New Audio Workstation

    Hi all, Just finished building my new machine to replace my aging Opteron workstation that I've been using since 2003. I mostly use my machine for music production, with the odd side of gaming. New machine Specs: - Six Core Intel Xeon (E5-2640) @ @2.5Ghz - 16GB 1600 DDR3 ECC - XFX Radeaon...

    School Can Force Teenagers To Wear RFID

    Pretty sure kids keep, and use their phones while on school property. Or listen to music from their iPods. I mean come on man. I used to do network installs, I did Wifi installs for many many high schools in my region, and one of the biggest problems faced by a lot of schools was the number...

    School Can Force Teenagers To Wear RFID

    And no.. I don't equate ID badges with RFID tags to government tyranny. You've got GPS, WiFi and multiple cell antennas in your phones, MP3 players, tablets, gaming handhelds, cars. "Blackbox" like devices in your car. Content providers tracking your online "movement", and physical...

    School Can Force Teenagers To Wear RFID

    I honestly don't understand what the big deal is... This is slightly different, but I've been to many University/College campuses where the school IDs were chipped. Entry to certain locations, labs, and access to resources was tracked using either the bar scanner and/or the chip on the card...

    NVIDIA Fermi - GTX 470 - GTX 480 - GTX 480 SLI Review @ [H]

    I think an individual rating for each card/configuration would have been better then a blanked rating for the whole thing. At quick glance, someone looking at the rating would think that the 470 got a silver rating, when it's pretty clear you guys are recommending to stay clear in the...

    Opera 10 is Out

    I've been playing with the Opera 10 betas for a good chunk of time, and it's nice to have seen it progress from beta 1, 2, 3, RC, and final. My RC just told me to upgrade the second it started up, and I'm typing this in the final now. As always, I'm quite pleased with the performance, and...

    IE8 Trounces Firefox, Chrome in Security Test

    The point I was trying to make, was the comparison that Close Source software is more secure then Open Source. When in reality you can't argue that point in such a blanket statement. Are there Close Source software solutions that are more "secure" then their Open Source competition, sure... is...

    New NVIDIA, AMD GPUs expected in coming months

    Personally I never had much of a problem with the ATI/AMD naming scheme when then went over to the X series and above. 100, 2000, 3000, and 4000. And from what we've heard, coming soon, the 5000 series. The problem I have it when it comes down to the actual performance of the card where it...

    Opera Unite Reinvents The Web

    Lord knows they do in Canada. Most people I know have a maximum bandwidth limit of roughly 5Mb, with a total data cap of 60Gigs +/- a couple Gigs a month. To me, this is an easy way for people to go over their cap, and for the ISPs to charge them an arm and a leg for it.

    Opera Unite Reinvents The Web

    ISP are going to love this. People are going to go over the monthly transfer and bandwidth caps, and the ISPs are going to charge them a fortune for it. They are going to make a killing. Security issues aside, I'm sure the ISPs are looking at this as an easy way to make more money. With...

    Opera: IE 'Kill' Switch Not Enough

    I'm an Opera User(Actually using the Opera 10 Beta right now), but I have to agree with the 'Sour Grapes' comment from above. Windows and IE are both MS products, I don't see why MS should even allow a 'Kill Switch' for the program. It's nice that they are doing it, but if any company is...
