Logic Pro X

26/7/2013

0 Comments

 
Apple have released version 10 of Logic Pro. There are some really useful new features e.g. Flex Pitch (similar to Melodyne), and Drummer (similar to EZ drummer).
The main change is to the 'look'. The GUI has a darker colouration and now sports the Apple software look. Where things are located has changed, with some menu item reshuffles. There are also some name changes. Overall it is not a major change but there are a lot of little differences that mean playing the "where's the ____ gone?" game.
Already the reviews are coming in so I won't bother here (well maybe after I have plumbed the depths of it). Here is one from a user who has been with Logic since version 1 (I'm a newbie -  I joined in at version 3). And here is an article about some of the hidden features. eMusician have reviewed it here (along with a video tour).
Version 10.0.1 has just come out so there is no lack of support from Apple.
The documents covering what's new are here and the manuals are now online.

The video at this site has some interesting information about the world's rich and poor. For example, the richest 300 people have the same wealth as the poorest 3 billion.

America's Cup

15/7/2013

The Louis Vuitton Cup match racing has finally begun. This time there are only 3 challengers to Oracle, and of those Team NZ have the best pedigree (having won the America's Cup twice). So it will probably come down to NZ vs USA.
Not everyone considers this contest as a worthy sport, but I watch it with interest (as an old sea-dog). More than that, it is good for the boating industry as new designs are tried and the boats are pushed to the limit. It didn't hurt NZ tourism either when NZ was the defender and the racing was held at Auckland. Some say it is a rich man's sport, but it is no different to any international sport. The sailors started long ago in P class yachts and worked their way up.
Besides, punters love a bit of controversy in sport, and the America's Cup certainly does not disappoint in this regard.

Serialism

5/7/2013

Vi Hart has a keen interest in things musical and mathematical. Here she gives a 30 minute expose on 12 Tone Row. It is fast paced, funny, and she really does have a good understanding of the underlying meaning of serialism (in fact, her overall understanding of physics and music theory is quite sharp).

Impossible Box

Aruis Blaze has invented and built a modular synthesiser which he calls the Impossible Box. Best of all it is now for sale for the sum of $1,000,000 US. Maybe that's where the name comes from - it might be impossible to sell at that price.
