Is there a computer program that can go through your music files collection, sample bits from them and remix/extrapolate "new" music from them automatically?

I've very curious. In theory I have a big enough sample size for an experiment.

What happened was that after I'd done some work converting the Armor suits, I noticed that I had skipped one of the later Technical Readout books that I have in my collection. So I got out some ledger paper sheets, jotted down the converted facts and figures on 56 here-to-fore "forgotten" 'Mechs, and was all set to bubble them into my Database ( Read more... )

Re: mravac_kid...

I found a website that has the absolutely latest version of European Air War with dozens of related patches for it...but as the file sizes are ginormous I'll have to wait till I can download them to Kong's HD and then install them onto Precious.

I've signed up with the website for Dassault Systemes and will soon download what I can of the 3DVIA family of software--what's available FREE of course. Of course, I'm completely out of my depth...but what else is new?

Okay, I learned over the Internet overday that through the use of the programs 3D Ripper DX and 3DVIA Printscreen I could reverse-engineer models from sim programs. I've downloaded and installed both on Precious--tho' it took temporarily removing a security feature on Internet Explorer to make part of it possible.

I installed European Air War and ( Read more... )

I just learned that the company that made my favorite computer games a decade and a half ago, Sierra Entertainment, had been acquired and dismembered out of existance a year ago. I'm wondering about the intellectual property aspect of this event.

For years I've wanted to somehow reverse-engineer the robot designs/scenery/effects from Earthsiege ( Read more... )

So, one of the first things I learn about Win7 is that their version of Paint is quite different from the one in WinXP. So different that I don't so much like it yet. So I copied the XP version from King Kong's HD and installed it on Precious, as a sideman to the Win7 version, which I will learn to use little-by-little ( Read more... )

"Witness the power of this fully-peripherized and operational information station..."

Camera and scanner work. Now I can finish old projects and move on to new ones.

I retrieved my license for the graphics program I use (LViewPro) and got it operational again. So now I can take photos, scan, and even create "2nd Player" versions of manga characters. Now I have to check to see whether I'll need new drivers for my scanner and camera...
