It's about websites, and a certain software so you might find it boring...
I noticed something about certain online video players. I don't know if I'm right, but I think it's ok to type it here...certain video players use a technique of layering skins, to hide the actual player.
Don't know why they would do that...
For example, in a certain website, I found that it had its native player, however, it had somehow managed to copy YouTube famous Flash player...not the YouTube player, but the skin. I noticed this since my internet connectivity had slowed down then.
It's not really that useful, unless someone does the opposite thing, that is utilize YouTube's player, and upload his/her video to YouTube's server, and then apply a skin on it to make it look like a native player...silly pretension...:P
Anyway, now for the exciting news...
I had been searching for a proper digital audio workstation...here's my definition of proper:
It should support MIDI and audio editing, and ReWire (from Reason 5), and should have some nice stock plugins for mastering audio...and it should have a nice interface ;)
Pro Tools HD 10 was the best option out there (Logic Pro would require a Mac :P ).
I have been using Reason for quite some time but I have Reason 5, and it does not support audio recording, apart from sampling audio. Pro Tools was the only thing I wanted (Cubase was complicated, to me at least). I had been searching for a proper torrent with a crack that would unlock iLok, but got nothing...even Ching Liu's version failed...finally, I got one from KuchenPlauf. It's brilliant! I have to pump up the CPU power, and reserve 99% of CPU power for Pro Tools when it is running...but that's ok...I can actually link each of Reason's instruments, and use them in Pro Tools using ReWire...thus I don't have to let go of the Steinway Grand piano, or the Yamaha C7 Grand! ^_^
The only problem is if I add EQ to all my tracks, and use several Native plugins...that's making the software lag. But still, that's not an immediate problem...I'll try to record a song with my band after the 20th...hope everything goes well...here are two screenshots:
Both are for the same song - I Giorni...check it out in the adjacent player from ReverbNation :)
