Droid 2 Software Review
For more smartphone news and reviews: http://bit.ly/4xfN5g The Droid 2 has almost identical software to the Droid X, except that the Droid 2 is running on Froyo, in theory making it faster than the Droid X at pretty much everything. In this video we test the Droid 2 against the Droid X and find that indeed, the Droid 2 is faster. We also take a look at the seven homescreens and the Motorola widgets that you can add. Overall, the Droid 2 gets high marks for Software.

SERATO SCRATCH LIVE SOFTWARE DEMO
Just trying out serato scratch live Software
Scratch Live 1.8.4
Scratch Live supports all these file formats: Fixed and Variable Bit Rate MP3, AIFF, AAC, WAV, OGG Vorbis, CD Audio and direct from the mixer. Record from your mixer’s Aux output and immediately scratch as if it was on vinyl. Record direct from vinyl or CD and save as a 24-bit 48 kHz stereo file.
Easily import your playlists and iTunes library. You can drag from Explorer (Windows) or the Finder (Mac) into the Scratch Live library. The crate and subcrate system helps organize your library and sets. Hot-swap external drives with fast automatic library merging and retention of crates. Browse your music collection by album, artist, BPM, or genre, with optional album art display. Intuitive search function can be applied to any field to find things quickly. Edit ID3 tags with full Unicode support.
Preprocessing of MP3 files is not required except to detect corrupt files or use the auto-BPM and auto-gain functions. Auto-BPM detects tempo information for tracks without it, saving it with each file. A tap tempo button allows you to enter your own. Auto-gain lets you set a target gain on any or all songs in your library. You can also manually adjust individual gain, remembered in each song file.
The Virtual Deck shows everything about the speed and position of a track. As the vinyl rotates, so does the line on the label. The circular progress bar around the edge is a visual representation of the position within the song. The time and remaining time are displayed in minutes and seconds. The turntable speed as a percentage of pitch shift is on the left, and the pitched BPM is on the right.
Different operating modes can be assigned to each Virtual Deck:
Absolute Mode — exact reproduction of record movement, needle drop through tracks – just like normal vinyl. The beginning of the track is mapped to the start of the record.
Relative Mode — skip-free scratching, jump to cue points, and pitch bend buttons combined with turntable control. This mode observes the relative forward and backward movement of the record, but does not regard the position within the record.
Internal Mode — mix with just your laptop using features modeled on DJ CD players. Rewind, Bend down, Play / pause reverse, Play / pause forward, Bend up, Fast forward.
Auto mode — play a sequence of tracks automatically.
With Key Lock on, the key or pitch of the song stays locked at what it would be if the track was playing at normal speed, regardless of the platter speed of the turntable or CD player. Key Lock has scratch detection, so it automatically turns off when scratching for a natural scratching sound.
Variable zoom waveforms centered around current position display horizontally or vertically. Waveforms are colored by frequency so you can distinguish instruments visually. Full track overview lets you quickly find where the beat drops, find breakdowns and choruses, and jump to any part of the song. The tempo display assists with rapid tempo matching of tracks. When the two tracks are matched to the same tempo, the peaks will line up. Beat display emphasizes the transients in tracks — these are matched up when the two tracks are beat matched. Visual markers can be set for up to 5 cue points per song and triggered from the keyboard. Save up to 9 loops per track — these loops are saved in the file, and will be present when you reload. Censor expletives on the fly with an instant quick-reverse and catch-up with no loss of timing or pitch.

Free software – Circle Dock
In this video I show you free Software called circle dock, it’s essentially a new dock program that seems to be bulit off the rocketdock code. Only issue I have with it is it’s massive memory and system resource useage. (will be more noticeable on lower end machines.) Apart from that it can be a nice application to use, but keep in mind that it is (still) in alpha testing, so there are bound to be a few glitches with the application in question.
Here is the link.

And also make sure you follow me on my Blog.

Thanks for watching, and by the way this time I used a different codec to compress the video, I use the H.264 MPEG 4 codec (.AVI). The size of this video was only 19.3MB. So I hope the quality is good.
Q & A
Q: Will this work on Windows 7?
A: I have no idea, I don’t use Windows 7 sorry.
Q: Will this crash my computer?
A: It depends on your specs really, lower end machines may have a harder time running this application.
Q: Can you exit this application?
A: Yeah in the area on the right of the task bar, right click the circle dock icon and click on quit(or exit).
Q: Wall paper link please.
A: Nope sorry won’t be giving that away.
Q: Link to Firefox theme.
A: Nope. Not giving that away either.
Q: How did you get the superbar at the bottom if your not on Windows 7?
A: It’s using a freeware Application called “ViGlance”, if you look back through my videos you will find a video I did about it.

Astronomy Software
Science video on Mars presenting VRMars Astronomy Software. The video shows panoramas and images, including the “Whale” panorama and Martian sunset, taken by NASA’s Mars Rover Spirit during the Mars Rover Mission. The video was created with the use of virtual reality science software VRMars-Spirit – The Red Planet Mars 3D, released by Sciterian Technologies, and powered by the technology VRPresents that gives an impression of being on the surface of Mars. Great astronomy video for those interested in science, and space exploration enthusiasts. Get this astronomy program at www.vrmars.com or www.vrmars.com/VRMars-Spirit-The-Red-Planet-Mars-3D.htm , and enjoy roving Mars. See the planet like you were one of the Mars Rovers at www.vrplanet.com .
