![]() ![]() ![]() No reason Apple couldn't do roll-backs seamlessly with APFS snapshots. ![]() Plus you can easily roll-back to previous versions too, whereas it's a full reinstall on Macs. MS actually seems to do a better job with that on Windows nowadays, with the three stages of release and regular release of new features - means if something breaks it's likely to be the only thing broken, rather than 10 broken things, as happens after every yearly release of macOS. macOS used to be released when it was ready, not on a yearly schedule. Yes I'm not sure the yearly big releases help that too much. Hide what's broke behind the new and the shiny… forgotten. The paired-stereo infrastructure is all there, and has been for years, it must be very little effort to add the "stereo pair" attribute to the AirPlay stream, and recycle the iTunes Airplay code. Apple are happy enough to dump existing APIs all the time and announce the next new *Kit but when it comes to existing features, they are often abandoned or long-standing bugs go unfixed for months or more until they get media attention. I don't understand how the glacial rate new features are added at Apple are justifiable to the management. It remains unclear whether Apple will complete development of HomePod stereo pairs in time for macOS 11.3's release, but it is apparent that the company is finally working to deliver what some consider to be a glaring omission in Mac's software feature set. After setting up a first HomePod, users are able to add a second unit - of the same type - to create a stereo pair that leverages onboard audio technology to significantly widen perceived soundstage. Stereo pairing is a major HomePod and HomePod mini feature that automates setup and playback processes. The news should come as a relief to HomePod owners who have pined for stereo sound on Mac since the smart speakers launched in 2018. It is unclear if the feature is compatible with HomePod mini. Clicking on a paired set results in stereo output, identical to HomePod handling on iOS.Īccording to the report, the feature is not working consistently, suggesting Apple is hammering out bugs on the way to public release. Further complicating matters, apps that do support stereo pairs force users to manually select speaker groups from the AirPlay menu.Īs noted by 9to5Mac, HomePod pairs are listed as selectable options in macOS 11.3 beta's system sound output pane. Current macOS releases restrict playback on stereo-paired HomePods to certain apps like Apple Music, with system audio relegated to individual HomePods. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Graham Berwind, III, Gramma Fisher Foundation, Marshalltown, Iowa, and John and Carole French, with additional support from the William O.

Magnets coming loose or demagnetized and hall sensors coming loose were the biggest causes of motor failure in the Sting/Surron. This means better efficiency, better heat dissipation, and most importantly much more reliability than the stock motor. This is an IPM (Interior Permanent Magnet) motor with bigger and better magnets and a far superior design to the stock Sting and Surron. We are very excited about the upgraded motor on this bike. By using regenerative braking wisely you can increase your range by up to 5 percent and greatly reduce brake wear and tear. 4 levels of regenerative braking that you are able to adjust on the fly make the bike more efficient and less hard on the mechanical braking system.

Įven though the reference encoder uses a single block size for the whole stream, FLAC allows the block size in samples to vary per block. In place of a mid channel, the left channel or the right channel may be encoded instead, which is sometimes more space-efficient. The channels are transformed into a side channel, which is the difference between the two input channels, and a mid channel, the sum of the two input channels. As FLAC compresses losslessly, the decoded waveform is identical to the waveform before encoding.įor two-channel stereo, the encoder may choose to joint-encode the audio. The result is formed by adding the residual and the calculated waveform. The description of the mathematical approximation is then used to calculate a waveform. The compressed residual is first decoded. The decoding process is the reverse of encoding. In many cases, a description of the approximation and the encoded residual takes up less space than using pulse-code modulation. Finally, the difference between the approximation and the input, called residual, is encoded using Rice coding. ![]() A description of the approximation, which is only a few bytes in length, is then written. ![]() The encoder then tries to find a good mathematical approximation of the block, either by fitting a simple polynomial, or through general linear predictive coding. If the audio contains multiple channels, each channel is encoded separately as a subblock. In the first stage, the input audio is split into blocks. The FLAC encoding algorithm consists of multiple stages. FLAC uses Vorbis comments for textual metadata like track title and artist name. It may also contain other information, the album cover for example. Properties like the sample rate and the number of channels are always contained in the metadata. ![]() The data block contains the audio information. The rest of the header contains the number of samples, position of the frame, channel assignment, and optionally the sample rate and bit depth. A frame header begins with a sync word, used to identify the beginning of a valid frame. Each frame is encoded independent of each other. The encoded audio is divided into frames, which consists of a header, a data block, and a CRC16 checksum. File structure Ī FLAC file consists of the magic number fLaC, metadata, and encoded audio. Design įLAC is a lossless encoding of linear pulse-code modulation data. In 2019, FLAC was proposed as an IETF standard. Version 1.3.0 was released on, at which point development was moved to the git repository. is home to other free compression formats such as Vorbis, Theora, Speex and Opus. On 29 January 2003, the Xiph.Org Foundation and the FLAC project announced the incorporation of FLAC under the banner. Version 1.0 was released on 20 July 2001. The bitstream format was frozen when FLAC entered beta stage with the release of version 0.5 of the reference implementation on 15 January 2001. FLAC has support for metadata tagging, album cover art, and fast seeking.ĭevelopment was started in 2000 by Josh Coalson.

Honda plans to unveil the N-Van camper concept on Oct. Kei cars are also limited in exterior dimensions to a prescribed footprint - under 134 inches long, 58 inches wide, 79 inches tall - which has forced Japanese automakers to come up with increasingly clever packaging solutions like this N-Van. ![]() A passenger jump seat can rise from the jigsaw puzzle-like floor, as can a second row of rear seats.īecause the N-Van falls under kei car rules, horsepower is limited to 63, which Honda makes from a turbo three-cylinder mated to either a six-speed manual or CVT. However, the N-Van also gives you the option of additional seating should you need it. The camper concept is also fitted with a ceiling basket drawer that slides up against the headliner for storage, a peg-board area by the rear hatch for hanging items, and a folding awning that shades the large opening on the pillar-less side. And in case you were wondering, the driver's side still has a traditional B-pillar. Combined with a very low load height, it's an ideal cargo hauler for Japan's crowded and narrow urban streets. The rear sliding door latches onto the hinged front door so that when both are open the aperture is greater than half the length of the cabin itself. The N-Van is also known for its unique pillar-less architecture on the passenger side. When you get tired of driving, you can simply pull over and flop out of the driver's seat onto your bed. While it's great for loading boxes and gear, in this case the unbroken horizontal floor makes the perfect surface for a mattress. The concept is based on the Honda N-Van, a Japan-market compact work van that is known for a cabin that can, aside from the driver's seat, fold entirely flat.

Feature-wise, it sits somewhere between Replica and Replica XT, with a choice of five delay algorithms: Modern, Analogue, Tape, Vintage and Diffusion, each with distinctly different characters, aided by features such as modulation, saturation, bit-reduction and tape flutter, depending on delay type. NI's excellent Replica plug-in has long been my go-to delay its inclusion in Kontakt is a real bonus. ![]() The original Delay, workmanlike but a bit dull, now has a swanky new friend. So it's nice to see some newcomers that fall into the 'good' category. Kontakt's effects have always been a mixed bag of the good and, frankly, the average. If you're interested in creating your own wavetables, Serum appears to be one of the most popular wavetable creation programs, along with Waldorf's Blofeld Wavetable Creator. ![]() The wavetable's starting point is also being modulated randomly with each new note triggered.įurther experimentation layering two or more together, assigning them to independent groups and assigning various forms of modulation to their wavetables' positions, adding envelopes, filters and LFOs, produced some great results - not quite identifiable, yet eminently musical and very usable. The wavetable position is being modulated by a triangle-shaped LFO waveshaping (Form) is being modulated inversely by the same LFO, using the Bend waveshaping type. This example wavetable is not at concert pitch, so Tuning is set to -5 semitones to compensate. Fortunately, free wavetables can easily be found online, so I downloaded a suite of them. The results were not pretty, although I'm sure someone somewhere would love the strangled, unmusical noise it made. It relies on having some ready‑made wavetables to hand, but as NI curiously don't include any in the package (why not?) I experimented by dragging in an 'ordinary' guitar sample to see what would happen. Wavetable ModuleĪ new component to the sample playback engine, the wavetable module expands Kontakt's potential for creating exotic and unusual synthesized sounds. However, anyone who creates their own sample material or simply likes to tweak and adapt (unlocked) existing libraries will find a handful of welcome additions. People whose use of Kontakt goes no further than loading and playing libraries exactly as they come out-of-the-box (be it in the free Kontakt Player or the full version) will probably view the new features as inconsequential and not be tempted to splash out on the full upgrade. Visually, K5 and K6 are completely identical - the differences, though not numerous, lie under the hood. So is this update a game changer for existing Kontakt users? Does K6 look any different - bigger fonts, cosmetic changes, or a new colour scheme? Well, no. Perhaps this is the last whole‑number revision of Kontakt as we know it, to be eventually replaced by a completely reworked product under another name? This is not a rumour, just to be clear - it's merely my febrile imagination running wild. Whether this suggests that subsequent updates will be incremental (and free) or that there will be future payable tipping-points is not clear. Although it's punted as 'Kontakt 6' by Native Instruments, the VST refers to itself in the plug-in list simply as 'Kontakt', with no number to signify the version.

Special features Julian Chokkattu/Digital TrendsĪpple’s never gone in for the Samsung approach of cramming as many special features as possible, and it means features only really come to iPhone when they’re polished and ready. As such, don’t let that factor be a major element when deciding between the two iPhones - they’ll be running the same version of iOS for a long time in the future. But with Apple’s extremely strong update record, it’ll be some time before the iPhone XR receives its final version of iOS. As with the older phone, the iPhone XR will receive fewer major OS updates than the iPhone 11. No surprises here - both the iPhone 11 and iPhone XR run Apple’s latest-and-greatest mobile operating system, iOS 15. Software and updates Julian Chokkattu/Digital Trends There’s no doubt in our minds the iPhone 11 takes this category easily. The addition of a 12MP selfie camera with slow-motion selfies (slofies) is just overkill. The iPhone 11 takes everything that made the iPhone XR’s camera great and adds even more. It’s that ultra-wide-angle lens that makes the most difference, offering a 120-degree field of view that enables you to pack much more into your shots. The iPhone 11 is equipped with a dual-lens system, comprising a 12MP wide-angle lens paired with a 12MP, ultra-wide-angle lens. The iPhone 11 builds on that foundation, adding a second lens to Apple’s cheaper range. ![]() While it was the only 2018 iPhone to release with just a single camera lens on the rear, the iPhone XR’s single 12-megapixel lens still delivers some excellent-looking snaps and has a great portrait mode. There’s no way we can rule one way or the other here. Neither can nail the deep blacks and vibrant colors that the iPhone 11 Pro’s AMOLED display is capable of, but there’s no obvious difference between the screens on the iPhone 11 and XR. It’s a good display, but look close enough and you’ll see pixels. The iPhone 11 is rocking the same 6.1-inch Liquid Retina (LCD) display as the iPhone XR, including the same 1792 x 828 resolution with a pixels-per-inch measurement of 326. Like the design, all is the same where the displays are concerned. That means it can be submerged in up to 2 meters of water for 30 minutes without damage whereas the iPhone XR can only handle depths of 1 meter. Physical durability across the two iPhones is similar, with aluminum and glass builds, so getting a case is the best way to avoid potentially costly repairs, but the iPhone 11 has improved water resistance, sporting an IP68-rating that’s superior to the iPhone XR’s IP67-rating. Thankfully, there’s more to it than just looks. Dimensions, weight, build materials - it’s all pretty much the same, and it makes this category a tough one to judge. Pretty much the only major difference is the addition of the extra camera lens on the iPhone 11, and a selection of different colors. You’d be forgiven for being unable to tell the iPhone XR and 11 apart.
