Mon, 16 Nov 2009 15:51:24 -0800 Flying off! http://mithril.posterous.com/flying-off http://mithril.posterous.com/flying-off
At Changi Airport's T3 now, sitting at a table with Ruio and Xeo and waiting for Xeo to finish her iced lemon tea which she claims is not sweet. Anyway, to those of you who haven't noticed, I'll be away from 17th - 30th Nov so don't call or SMS my cellphone because roaming charges are INSANE. Have 10 minutes left before I have to report for...something (security check?) so yup that's all now.

Sun, 25 Oct 2009 21:17:54 -0700 DirectX 8-11 Comparison http://mithril.posterous.com/directx-8-11-comparison http://mithril.posterous.com/directx-8-11-comparison

I will admit that I have only the foggiest idea of what DirectX does. I know you use it in games, and I know that the higher the version number, the better the results. But in my games I never really could tell the difference, mostly because I don't play graphics-intensive games. (I tried turning on DX10 graphics in DDO, but couldn't tell there was a difference). Still, the video is pretty nifty.

It's pretty. I love pretty things. Going to give this a spin: hopefully it works better than the other life-decluttering tools I've tried. I always end up going back to about fifteen sticky notes, receipts and pieces of scrap paper all over my house.

Thu, 15 Oct 2009 05:55:34 -0700 Pianoteq http://mithril.posterous.com/pianoteq http://mithril.posterous.com/pianoteq
New grand pianos
Thanks to our research, we build two beautiful new instruments that each has its own personality. The Grand C3 has a warm and coloured sound, suitable for classical, romantic or lyrical music. The Grand M3 has an attack and presence that will suit jazz and rock music. In the end, this is of course a matter of taste and the choice will depend on the selected music. Different perspectives are provided with each instrument: player, recording (4 mics in the C3 solo recording), close mic, binaural… These are only a few among the infinitely many perspectives that you can create yourself by choosing your own recording settings: mics placement and mixing. Thus any musician or producer should find the piano he needs.

Pretty darn amazing. Audio samples at http://www.pianoteq.com/discover_pianoteq3
The Clair de Lune is excellent, you can only tell that it's fake in the higher notes, and very barely too.
