![]() It failed though to conquer and unify all Abrahamic religions, as judaism, the go(l)d cult(ure) declined and Christianity found protection in Byzantium and the Franks, or rather in the dissensions within Islam (Berber abandoning Spain, dynastic disputes that moved the capital from Damascus to Baghdad). Islam then spread on its natural territory - the semite world, unifying it along those fault lines and then moved further into the alien world of Eastern 'Universal religions' thru India, allied to the Brahmins to extinguish the higher spiritual culture of Buddhism. This division thus ended the project of a global Islam shortly after its birth, and became the 'excuse' for military evolution. That the 'sacred family' was murdered within decades of the death of the prophet by their distant cousins who had tried to kill Mohammed and now took advantage of its religion to spread its power (Ummayads, Sunni version), tells a lot about the huge distance between the prophets of the wor(l)d and the human people who form the body of a civilination. Its sub-cultures in mind are clear, the 'purified' version (Shiites) which tried to carry the design of the prophet - first seed of a civilination: a 'sacred genetic/memetic family' spreading to the entire planet its memes to construct a single superorganism of mankind. We study Islam in its many elements after the customary introductions to the 'larger model' of the organic Universe, then focused on the superorganism of History and finally on Islam. In any case today Islam is in inquisition mode as all superorganisms are faced with extinction. But that is perhaps asking too much to a civilination. Had Islam become educated in those concepts it would have survived far better in the present age. The problem then of Islam is the lack of a proper metaphysical theory of human gods, which however prior to those papers was precisely considered by my country man from Al-Andalus, Ibn Khaldun, 'the best philosopher of history ever' (Toynbee). ITs doctrine, acting as the DNA of its cells-believers is irrelevant in its details, taylored for an age - middle Age chivarly/stirrup cycle - long gone. Islam is then the central point of the equation of the 7 civilinations of History: Gaia (life-past) Metal-earth (future-machines). ![]() As such from a historic perspective it deserves a respect that it is denied from the point of view of the superorganism that is killing History and Gaia, the metal-earth. Islam is the last extant 'subconscious collective God' of mankind supported by its believers, able to accept even the apoptosis of martyrdom for the sake of the whole.

Emulators neglect these differences, misrepresenting the way your site appears. But what kinds of errors do mobile emulators generate?Įach browser and operating system renders default elements, such as buttons and scrollbars, differently. There’s no replacement for testing on real devices. Again, critical variables in the mobile UX are left out by emulators. For example, the iPhone 6 Plus has a “ downsampling” process that’s not used on most other devices and it certainly impacts how a page is displayed. You must check your website on the actual physical devices to see what your site visitors will truly experience.įurthermore, emulators don’t always take into account the details of the native processing on each device. ![]() That rendering engine is used by the browser to interpret the HTML and CSS code, and consequently, mobile emulators can miss serous design flaws and coding bugs. Emulators don’t necessarily test the same rendering engine as used on the actual device. Here’s why mobile emulators like BrowserStack fall short. BrowserStack relies on mobile device emulators, so it can’t be relied on 100% for a native experience.” Jordan Lewis, Front End Developer, EnvatoAnd they add, “This is the closest that one gets to a real device.”īut is “close” good enough? What if close hides failure? What if less than perfect rendering fails to disclose your website’s bugs, glitches, and errors?

When Turtles frontmen Flo & Eddie - and the rest of their '60s pop/rock compatriots on the bill - step up to the microphone, the years melt away as the hits of the Aquarian Age come back around. It gives us all a glimpse of what it was like to live in that golden moment of the 1960s, when the glorious vocal harmonies of The Turtles and their contemporaries came bursting out of just about every radio and jukebox in America. For just a little while, the cares of the current world seem somehow to melt away as the sound of a free, colorful era long gone rises up in the air once more. When the Happy Together Tour rolls into town, a beautiful kind of magic trick occurs. I replied, "I had a great time!" My day was complete. And after the show Shawn Stevens of the Vogues came to the front of the stage, reached down and shook my hand and asked me how I liked the show. And despite a covid protocol all but two stopped and shared a story and an autograph. I got to the venue a couple hours early and sat out behind the theater waiting to see if I could meet any of the stars as they arrived. And the tour backup group supported each band's music quite well. For Chuck's absence they brought in the Grass Roots which was a great addition. So, one is to expect there will be medical issues from time to time. ![]() But, these performers have been doing this for more than fifty years. I heard many comments in the audience of disappointment because of his absence. ![]() My four out of five star ratings is because unannounced was Chuck Negron of Three Dog Night as a no show because his physician is advising him to stop touring for medical reasons. There were the Cowsills, the Vogues, the Association, Gary Puckett of the Union Gap complete with his confederate military coat, and Ron Dante of the "Archies" fame filling in for the Turtles who had one member with Covid and another recovering from medical issues. ![]() Brought back memories of past times listening to the AM radio stations. ![]() Ultimately, the sounds and patches in MainStage and Logic are the same it's just how you use them that are different between each program. It's basically Ableton's session view within Logic. I use Logic in live situations more than ever now for backing track playback, because Live Loops lets you really easily create a session where you can trigger certain sections of a song and bounce around between sections really easily. However, the line was just recently blurred between MainStage and Logic with the Live Loops feature. If you are playing an electric drum pad or keyboard in a live situation and want to have all your studio sounds at your fingertips without having to click through a bunch of menus to make changes on the fly, MainStage is a really good way to achieve that. ![]() Clients have access towards best manufacturing and production gear for multimedia content.

MainStage 3.6.4 Crack is great application which is used for Macintosh and Operating System Movie franchise, there is an application for containing outrange of sub sequential row of data.

It is designed to be lighter and use less of your CPU than Logic would. showing that Apple's new M1 chip was outperforming almost every previous Mac ever released. Then early benchmark testing results started to leak. ![]() The best way I can describe it is this: MainStage is set up to take the sounds and instrument plugins that you can use in Logic, and streamlines the UI for ease of use during a live situation. When Apple first announced their new, in-house developed Apple Silicon based Macs the tech world was skeptical. Gig Performer does provide the power, the optimal CPU usage, the versatility to allow me for the first time to switch from complex workstation based keyboards to live rigs with a Mac computer. Il crac delle banche svela la visione fallita della Silicon Valley. CPU usage is unacceptable, Mainstage is unstable and unreliable due to CPU problems (even on most powerful computers). I am a drummer, keyboardist, and playback engineer (backing tracks) that uses Ableton and MainStage live, and Logic in the studio. L’app MainStage 3 è in vendita su Mac App Store al prezzo di 32,99 euro. Loud the file actually sounds to a human's ears. Instead, MP3Gain uses David Robinson's Replay Gain algorithm to calculate how Yes, but MP3Gain does not use "peak amplitude" normalization as many "normalizers" do.Īudio files with very different peak amplitudes can still sound to the human ear as though they're the same volume. In the case of Flac, Ogg, and most (all?) other formats that support ReplayGain, Metadata tags are written, which is a lossless process (the actual audio data is not changed in any way).MP3Gain automatically adjusts mp3s so that they all have the same volume In the case of WAV files, ReplayGain tags are not supported and WAV files do not have a “gain” setting, so the only way to apply a ReplayGain loudness is for the scanner to amplify the audio data - this process is not lossless - if the loudness is set too high then the WAV file is permanently damaged. If Metadata tags have been used, then the original audio data will be read correctly (because it has not been altered by ReplayGain). The disadvantage of the latter method is that it “could” cause some peaks to exceed 0 dB and be clipped. The latter has the benefit that the ReplayGain setting will work even in players that do not support ReplayGain. When metadata tags are used, the audio data is not changed at all, so players (or editors) that do not support ReplayGain Tags will play the track at the original level (ignoring the ReplayGain analysis). In the case of MP3 files, depending on how ReplayGain is implemented by the ReplayGain scanner application, and/or what settings have been chosen, the playback level may either be written to metadata tags, or may be written as a “gain” parameter in the MP3 data. “ReplayGain Tags” are metadata tags (similar to id3 tags) that store the results of the ReplayGain analysis. “ReplayGain” is an algorithm for measuring “loudness”. What Sound Forge does or doesn’t do has nothing to do with Audacity. I don’t use Sound Forge, but if Sound Forge is damaging your files, then you could take that up with Sony. If the ReplayGain in MP3 file is not lowered then after such pumped MP3 is loaded into Sound Forge, the audio is permanently destroyed. I’m using old Sony Sound Forge 7.0 for editing. So I have three question:ġ] Does ReplayGaining feature on FLACs works the same way? I mean: if a FLAC file is pumped up, do I have to lower it down before encoding to WAV ? Or maybe that r-gain info is somehow stored differently in them and so audio in WAV won’t show up raised as it is in FLAC ?Ģ] Does ReplayGaining on WavPacks works the same way? Do all files are treated the same way with this process?ģ] What software could I use to check / change replay gain on FLACs ? All I found was foobar2000, but it doesn’t seem to work neither for FLACs and MP3’s Ĥ] Why do all FLACs that I download from the Internet look like they have been put through the process of normalization? In the waveform they look like they should sound bad- but they don’t Unfortunately MP3Gain does not works with FLACs. ![]() In a matter of fact, I do this every time for new MP3 files [because I always do some editing on new files, so it’s more efficient for me to do unnecessary RG operation that to go back later on for those that do really need it But I use it for the opposite: if I have to edit and MP3 file, which happens to be pumped up, I can lower it down. With it I can pump up the volume in MP3 file and reverse that process without quality loss. I would like to know, how does ReplayGain works on FLAC file format? Setup of a polarization-insensitive Faraday isolator, with high transmittance in forward direction (top) and a spatial offset for backward propagation (bottom). The basic principle of a polarization-insensitive isolator is to first spatially separate the orthogonal polarization components of the input beam with some kind of polarizer, then send both through a Faraday rotator, and combine them again in the second polarizer. In particular, optical fiber communication systems are usually operated with undefined polarization state, and Faraday isolators as well as other components are then required to work with arbitrary polarization states. Such devices are often required in the context of fiber optics, because many fibers are not polarization-maintaining. ![]() Polarization-insensitive Faraday IsolatorsĪ polarization-insensitive Faraday isolator is a device which works for arbitrary polarization of the input beam. It may be better to optimize that polarizer's orientation for maximum isolation, while accepting a somewhat higher insertion loss in forward direction. If the rotation angle of the Faraday rotator somewhat deviates from 45° (either due to fabrication errors or due to operation away from the design wavelength), the orientation of the output polarizer may still be adjusted for maximum transmission, but in that case the degree of isolation is reduced. Note that the output polarizer (pol 2) is important if light may be reflected back with a modified polarization state. Then, however, its polarization direction is rotated by another 45° in the Faraday rotator, so that this light will be blocked at the input polarizer, or can be sent to the separate output port. When light is reflected back to the output port of the isolator with an unchanged polarization state, it can fully transmit the output polarizer (pol 2). The photograph was kindly provided by GMP Switzerland. The double arrows indicate the polarization directions of a forward and backward-propagating beam.Ī selection of Faraday isolators for different power levels. Setup of a polarization-sensitive Faraday isolator, containing a Faraday rotator between two polarizers. Here, a properly polarized and collimated input beam passes a first polarizer (pol 1 in Figure 1) with minimum loss, then a 45° Faraday rotator, and finally another polarizer (pol 2) with its transmitting axis being rotated by 45°, such that the transmission losses are small. ![]() ![]() The simplest type of Faraday isolator is polarization-sensitive in the sense that it works only when the input beam has a prescribed direction of linear polarization. Light injected into port 1 will exit at port 2, while input at port 2 will be sent to port 3, and input at port 3 to port 1.

![]() William Gilpin, Ruins at Canterbury, from Observations on the coasts of Hampshire, Sussex and Kent, relative chiefly to Picturesq Beauty (1774) William Gilpin, View from the Bank of a River GilpinĬlaude Lorrain, Pastoral Landscape (1645) we picturesque people are a little misunderstood." - Wm. The ease with one category of aesthetic blends into another is evidenced by the fact that Gilpin himself often referred not to "the picturesque," but to "picturesque beauty." (Gilpin in fact wrote an essay on "Picturesque Travel," effectively explaining how to "create" the picturesque in your mind's eye when you view landscapes.) As Gilpin wrote in "On Picturesque Beauty," beautiful objects are "those which please the eye in their natural state" while picturesque sights "please from some quality capable of being illustrated in painting." This is why Gilpin's definition of "picturesque" is tautological it is not so much a naturally occurring phenomenon as it is a created one, created primarily by painters but also by trained observers. Of considerable importance in the idea of the picturesque is the idea that it is an aesthetic of effect for all intents and purposes, it is an aesthetic that almost does not exist independently in nature, but only in its perception by the viewer - and particularly in its arrangement. In Gilpin's words, "Picturesque composition consists in uniting in one whole a variety of parts." A picturesque landscape would have characteristics of roughness (which includes textured or variegated surfaces) - indeed, Gilpin wrote that "roughness forms the most essential point of difference between the beautiful and picturesque" - and an absence of regular or linear elements, and would effectively orchestrate a number of additional compositional elements: distance, light/shadow, "variety," and perspective. The picturesque may be thought of as halfway between the beautiful, with its emphasis on smoothness, regularity, and order and the sublime, which is all about vastness, magnitude, and intimations of power the picturesque must combine aspects of both of those. In later publications Gilpin developed the concept more fully. ![]() The concept of the "picturesque" was created by the English clergyman, artist, and writer William Gilpin (1724 - 1804) in his 1768 art treatise Essay on Prints, in which he defined the picturesque - rather tautologically - as "that kind of beauty which is agreeable in a picture."
