1/4/2024 0 Comments Sansa disk fuzeOn the actual signal a high frequency sinewave is superimposed. It appears as though Sansa skimped on the analog post filtering. Zooming in on the edges of the waveform revealed something interesting. When examined closely one can see the horizontal lines are slightly sloping downwards in the X3 but NOT in both Sansa’s.īoth scope images are taken from the headphone outputs with a 30Ω resistive load. On the right above the 220Hz squarewave of the FiiO X3. The plot of the Sansa Fuze is exactly the same so see no need to show that one as well. On the left above a -3dB 220Hz squarewave of the Sansa Clip Sport. The pre- and post-ringing that is visible is only seen when steps near the Nyquist frequency (half the sample rate frequency) and, as said, this is NOT the case with real music signals. It should be noted that the test signals used here do NOT exist in nature and certainly not in music. ![]() Other interesting plots are made using an oscilloscope and revealed some technical issues with the ‘Sport’ and a bit in the X3.Ī squarewave can show digital- and analog-filter characteristics. SOME of the higher frequency spikes MAY not even be present but could also be caused by the used SB1240 soundcard. This is an indication for low frequency jitter.Īlso the Sansa seems to generate more harmonics and are slightly higher in amplitude. What’s interesting in these plots is the base of thr 1kHz (and uneven harmonics) widens near the noise floor in the Clip Sport. The FiiO X3 seems to be the better player based on specs but they aren’t very far apart. What do the RMAA generated specs have to say about these players (16 bit 48kHz to even the playing field as the X3 is capable of 24-192). Squarewave measurements have shown that the Sansa players run flat from DC (0 Hz) upwards where the X3 rolls off around 20Hz on the HP out but reaches MUCH lower (< 1Hz) on its line-out. this is caused by the soundcard used for these tests (SB1240). No mentionable roll-off in the frequency range… in fact the clip sport is even slightly more linear.įor those that noticed… all 3 players show the exact same amount of gentle roll-off in the lows…. Left plots/data = Sansa Clip Sport Right plots/data = FiiO X3 Some, but far from everything telling, RMAA results for clip sport versus X3 Having read some reviews stating the clip Sport (and clip Zip) have lesser sonic qualities than the older Fuze(+) and Clip(+) I was curious how it measured. lacked definition / presence and the sound was less refined. On direct comparison (same song, about the same volume) when plugging a headphone between them I noticed the clip sounded audibly different (less) compared to the X3. The X3 can play MUCH louder, it can reach 5x the output voltage of the Fuze/Clip in ‘High output’ setting. The Sandisk has a 5 band digital EQ, the X3 has ‘old fashion’ truly analog tone control (bass & treble) + also a 5 band EQ but with a limited dB range (+/-6dB) I have not experienced any issues with the X3 running on 3.4FW though. The 3.4 FW runs fine, I use an alternative ‘theme’ based on 3.4 FW. You need to ensure they are based on the 3.4 Firmware though. The LATEST FIRMWARE for FiiO products can be found HERE.įor those who like other themes there are 3rd party ‘skins/themes’ that can be downloaded. ![]() Sometimes the player ‘hung’ and became unresponsive, this IS solved by the 3.3 Firmware.Ĭurrently I have the X3 running on 3.4 Firmware of which FiiO mentioned will be the last FW update for this model.įiiO also added a 5 band equalizer (which I do not use) in the latest firmware. The same is true for the X3, poor GUI, strange button layout, bulky and simple display. The GUI of the clip sport is not the simplest but with properly tagged files (mine are) it works O.K. ![]() When loaded with low impedance headphones they measure ‘worse’ in the THD and IMD department.įirst a comparison between Sansa clip sport and FiiO X3: NOTE: these players were NOT loaded with low impedance headphones because I use these players with an external amplifier (Kameleon) The Sansa Clip Sport differs from the Clip ZIP. The Sansa Fuze+ and Clip+ are technically similar and differ from Sansa Fuze (v2) and clip. Sansa Clip Sport, Sansa Fuze v2 (technically similar to Sansa Clip) and FiiO X3.

Ray Stantz, aka Dan Akroyd, his own real self, came to their shops to review the restoration. The way they knew they knocked it out of the park was that none other than Dr. Schultz, Volo Auto Museum) An Instant Icon What they ended up with was no less than a brand new ’59 Caddy in perfect Ghostbusters livery. The amount of cubic money has to have been staggering. Everything got looked at, fixed, replaced, restored, polished or taken for lunch in a place where you can’t get reservations. Or in other words, they can make or restore anything.Ĭinema Vehicle Services took the miserably neglected original car and went to town. Their resume is too long to repeat here, but add in various parts of these franchises: Die Hard, American Sniper, The Avengers, Batman, Fast & Furious, Men in Black, The Italian Job, Transformers and Terminator, among a huge number of others. For example, for Gone in Sixty Seconds, they built eleven Eleanor Mustangs. They have a first-rate bunch of departments that can handle virtually anything. But of course you can’t run an outfit like that without also being able to do fantastic-level work on cars, to include extensive custom fabrication. They are the single largest supplier of vehicles for the movie and TV industries in the country. You need a fleet of police cars from the mid-eighties? Not a problem. ![]() But, finally, someplace along the line, they decided to send the original to a magnificent outfit called “Cinema Vehicle Services.” To quote Akroyd from another one of his movies, The Blues Brothers: “This place has everything.” And indeed they actually do. Well, after working through the rest of the sadly forgettable franchise sequels, the Sony Pictures left the original Ecto 1 to rot outdoors. Schultz, Volo Auto Museum) So What Happens Now? It is said – perhaps apocryphally – that it ended up causing many traffic accidents while New Yorkers gawked. To say it was an attention-getter is an understatement, particularly as the movie became well known. To promote the movie, the producers sent the car blazing around New York City. ![]() A sound designer, Richard Beggs, in a fit of crazed genius, decided to create the Ecto’s odd siren sound by taking a leopard snarl and playing it backwards. Within less than a month, the Ecto 1 emerged. Prop and paint folks at the Burbank Studio went to work. After Reitman gave him the greenlight, he was off and running. Dane drew up sketches as to what he thought it should look like, right down to details on the roofrack. To go from the original to Ecto 1, the production company sent it to a guy named Steve Dane. By 1962, they dominated that market, so it’s no surprise that the Ecto 1 came from them. They didn’t leave GM in finished form, though: they went to a bunch of third-party fabricators, with this one going to an outfit called Miller-Meteor, which worked exclusively on the Caddy chassis. The base model is the ’59 Caddy Fleetwood professional “end loader,” used primarily as ambulances and hearses. As they all note in retrospect: really good call. Someplace there, the Ecto 1 went from sinister to hilarious. Well, one happy week in Martha’s Vineyard, Akroyd, Ramis and Reitman sat down and re-wrote the whole thing, with a real comedic focus, on an electric typewriter. So, too, was the original Ecto 1 concept: it was a sinister black, looking more like a hearse than an emergency response vehicle, with purple lights on it. Akroyd’s early drafts were decidedly dark, with lots of references to real occultists and metaphysics. The first drafts were the brainchild of Akroyd, but Director Ivan Reitman suggested bringing on the brilliant Harold Ramis, both as a writer and as an actor, ultimately becoming the Dr. Needs some suspension work and shocks and brakes, brake pads, linings, steering box, transmission, rear-end – only $4,800 – maybe new rings, also mufflers.” And with that, the world was introduced to the Ghostbusters’ legendary Ecto 1, aka, The Ectomobile. He jumped out: “Everybody can relax, I found the car. Dan Akroyd wheeled the monster ’59 Caddy into the firehouse driveway like he’d done it every day of his life. 1/4/2024 0 Comments Gpodder variable speed![]() What is the intended use of this feature? The Bookmark feature leaves me puzzled since they disappear when you turn off the application. Unless of course I leave Panucci running all the time, which I am sure will not be good for battery life. With Panucci I have to navigate to the file I want to play every time I start listening. I really do not want to load the same file every time I open the player. When I use Audible or Pocket Tunes I simply turn on the application and press play. Since an audiobook is often more than 20 hours long, I will sometimes spend a month or so listening to one book. I normally use PoketTunes on my Palm Zire 71 and have been looking forward to being able to use the N800 to listen. ![]() I really appreciate the effort to create a proper audiobook player as I have been through a lot of audiobooks in the last few years. If you do try it and find bugs please report them to the bug tracker. A deb is available here (), but I must warn you that this is beta-quality code. This will be fixed eventually, Thomas has already written a patch that creates normal directory names and is available in my testing packages ().Īlso, panucci now supports queueing so you could simply queue a bunch of tracks using gPodder then not have to worry about keeping gPodder open to choose another podcast.įor this to work you need to set the gPodder player command to "panucci -queue" and obviously be using the most recent trunk version of panucci. With the recent improvements in the gPodder interface speed, using the Play buttons in the feed views is no real hardship. It feels like some of the syncing stuff might work around this issue but haven't had time to play. I am late to this party though so I may be uninformed. If navigating to the folder is necessary, figuring out which one isn't really possible as far as I can see. Really only players that base a library view on ID3 tags can deal with this, e.g. Namtastic - If that's the "experimental" naming, it seems to work fine but it still creates folders in the md5 style. 1/4/2024 0 Comments Twitterrific for iphone![]() Twitterrific for macOS costs $8.įull release notes: Twitterrific 5.

Joan Jett is an unmarried woman, whereas, regarding her relationship status, she is not dating anyone as of now. The Runaways were previously the subject of a 2004 documentary “Edgeplay: A Film About the Runaways.” She was really serious about it and was watching me and asking me all sorts of question, from speech aspects to watching my body language, watching where I stood, watching my guitar playing. “I think she felt a weight and a responsibility to interpret it correctly. The Bluestem Summer Concert Series is always looking for more local and national partners to assist in sponsoring our season If your business is interested. “Kristen was so into it, into the whole vibe of doing this,” Jett reports. Jett and Currie each coached their cinematic counterparts during the filming, and Jett was particularly impressed by Stewart, who came to the set almost immediately after wrapping the second “Twilight” film, “New Moon.” They exceeded our expectations with the casting…Even if it’s not a huge movie, it’s going to have a colossal effect on young girls playing rock ‘n’ roll, for sure.” Laguna adds that, “We’re hoping it will be great. What they did was basically take elements from the Runaways story and created a parallel narrative.” It just reinforces my love of the whole time and of the band and what we did and how it was implausible and improbable at the same time.”Īnd Jett hastens to explain that “The Runaways” is “absolutely not a biopic. It reinforces my love for the band and the fact I think it was an extremely important band, regardless of our level of success in America. “If anything it definitely made me smile. “It was very surreal and hard to put a word on,” Jett, who executive produced the film and was on hand for the filming, tells. 1/3/2024 0 Comments Two bishops checkmate![]() The results below obviously aren't all going to be applicable for the actual name of your pet/blog/startup/etc., but hopefully they get your mind working and help you see the links between various concepts. business names, or pet names), this page might help you come up with ideas.

The Volt's onboard charger can only handle 3.6 kW though, which is sufficient for overnight charging at the owner's home but falls short of the capabilities of public chargers. To increase the electrically driven miles, the Volt would need better charging capabilities. Chevrolet expects that many 2016 Volt owners will run on battery only for 90% of their daily trips, up from 80% for the first generation owners based on OnStar data and other studies. Likewise, only second to the BMW i3 REx, the 53 mi (85 km) all-electric range is the second longest-range achieved by any plug-in hybrid car available for sale. As of March 2016, and excluding all-electric cars, only the BMW i3 REx has a better combined gasoline-electricity rating (88 MPG-e) than the Volt. Both the all-electric range and fuel economy ratings are the same for the 2017 model year Volt. The combined gasoline-electricity fuel economy rating of the 2016 model year Volt is 77 mpg ‑US (3.1 L/100 km 92 mpg ‑imp) equivalent, 82 MPG-e in city driving and 72 MPG-e in highway. The official rating for combined city/highway fuel economy in all-electric mode is 106 miles per gallon gasoline equivalent (MPG-e), up from 98 MPG-e for the 2015 first generation model. The EPA combined fuel economy in gasoline-only mode was rated at 42 mpg ‑US (5.6 L/100 km 50 mpg ‑imp), up from 37 mpg ‑US (6.4 L/100 km 44 mpg ‑imp) for the previous generation.
