kid versus chemical — Wed, 16 May 2012 05:10:09 -0000

That was really cute. Kids have no filter, I love it. And I agree %100 with your bullet points, especially #1.

My kids are 4 and 10 months, sometimes they like the music I make/listen to, other times I think it annoys them (just like adults). They still prefer "wheels on the bus" and "down by the bay" for sure.

1 other note...there is show on Nick Jr called Yo Gabba Gabba that has some really great music in it, from chiptune to electro to straight rock, awesome stuff and kids are into it.

They sound like Mummy and Daddy just brought them down from Mussy Hill for the day.

In between shoots they get their organic rye, hummous and wild turnip sandwiches....

I love the way we anthropomorphise children......like ha they're less developed than we are...funny!

Re: FL Studio Unveils Performance Mode Alpha; Live That Isn’t Like Ableton Live?

Pborah88 — Wed, 16 May 2012 01:13:28 -0000

I think you better check out some ratings, FL Studio is rated as the best DAW for 2011 and hopefully for this year too. And all that aside, the sheer number of options you have to create music in there is astounding. Maybe tht is what scares off the first timers. I mean its total support for VSTi plugins, the options to make a library of tonns and tonns of effect and instrument plugins, the things you can do on the mixer alone are limitless. Even the factory default instrument plugins are far superior in sound quality compared to Ableton, Cubase or Reason. And I say this cos I have used all of those 3. In contrast Ableton comes with crappy instruments and FX with shitty quality. Reason's drum rack sucks balls, Cubase is hopeless except when it comes to live recording.

Am I the only one that hates the waveform display because it spoils dynamic surprises? It's like, oh look, it get spiky there, I guess that's where the drums come in. It's like watching a movie with that really annoying guy that's already seen it and pokes you when something good is going to happen.

This is one case where the option for a pop out floating window would be a good thing. Stick the track art, album art, or artist logo on there, a pause button and a buy button and call it a day.

My son (age 10) has been listening to Aphex Twin since birth and will often request his albums while we drive to various places. He likes the more energetic stuff and has a thing for acid. He loves Electronic Dance Music and makes tunes with me.

This is soo funny to read about this right now. Strange story. I just came back from a late night visit to my Fathers grave. I like to visit him at night, since we used to sit on the porch and watch the stars together. Well, back when I used to do my prepared guitar music. He used to tell me I should do an album of music for plants. This was back in the late 90's. I used to joke about it. Looks like these people have taken it a bit more seriously than I did. I'm definitely going to spend my funds on this.
Cheers.

Hello Gus, this is Sam. Please check us out on DataGarden.org.
We utilized a simple circuit based on a 555 timer, running it as a 'lie detector', we were able to graph small electrodynamic changes by connecting silver wire electrodes to the surface of the plant's leaves. Plants operate at a different metabolic time scale than humans. Using large extended plants like philodendron, we are able to graph both long and short duration changes. Look for us in the fall at Bartram's Garden!
