![]() You proceed to mix and sculpt them into your next masterpiece.īut then you listen to your new mix the next day and something is still not quite right, especially those drum overheads, 10 layers of background vocals and wide panned 12-string acoustic guitars. ![]() Your new captures sound incredibly pristine and life-like at the industry standard of 24bit/48khz. You get that fleeting feeling like you just moved the fridge and swept out the ancient pieces of broccoli, lost change, hairballs, an old sock, beer bottle caps, your local library card and that damn special fastener that held that old cool looking light fixture together (that you had to replace). You save up and buy better microphones and better A/D converters. You feel great shame, followed by a dark night of the soul - lying awake at night, thumbing through the endless blogs and forums where other insecure skeptics congregate and conspire, and eventually blame it on your “cheap” gear. You try to ignore your insecurity about your latest banger, but one night your track pops up in your party playlist and you realize it’s not even remotely as good as the new Tame Impala track that preceded it.Įven though the underlying reason is probably a difference in talent, time and effort, it’s something about the sound quality that bugs you. Help keep Soundcloud and your friend’s notifications free from Garbage by utilizing this great hidden feature in Garageband. Even though you nod your head, you’re not sure you believe him. He now restores mopeds and lives in a tiny house he built from salvaged materials that were destroyed by re-gentrification and tornadoes. He sold all his own equipment except for a few vintage guitars and gave up on music. It sounds really great to you, despite that one jealous asshole at the pub who implies, after a few neat bourbons, that he can “hear the difference.” He has a tendency to humblebrag about the nuances of exotic outboard equipment he used at the commercial studio he worked at before it sadly closed down. When you’re a noob with cheap microphones and a cheap audio conversion system, you usually record projects into your computer at 44.1, because that’s the CD quality default. ![]() It’s like the detritus under the refrigerator – you can’t see it, and god knows you don’t want to move the fridge to sweep it out, but you know it’s there. The DAW was and is an absolute godsend to the throngs of wanna-be music producers who have great ideas, a little bit of gear, a computer and the will to learn.īut at some point, after years of making music that sounds “amazing” to your mom, girlfriend (hopefully) and buddies at the local pub, a level of dissatisfaction sets in. Trevor Horn in particular thinks the analog purist camp is just nuts. Many if not all of the working professionals whose career traversed the treacherous analog to digital mountain pass of the 80s & 90 and didn’t die of dysentery agree that digital today is a fabulous capture and non linear editing medium. The first decent mixer I used for recording to an 8-Track ca. Good examples include the early releases by Kevin Parker (Tame Impala) and Chaz Bear (Toro Y Moi) who have openly admitted they had absolutely no clue what they were doing and used a lot of second-hand outboard gear to get the sounds before anything hit an A/D converter. They use it like a tape recorder and try to make the sounds they like INTO the microphone or cable. Perhaps that’s why the true neophytes who have absolutely no clue how to insert plugins, apply track quantization, pitch correction, complex sidechain bussing schemes and such make some of the most refreshing stuff. Just because your DAW has infinite possibilities, you can just use it as a basic multitrack capture device. It’s easy to emulate lower fidelity recordings ITB. I’m not going to get too deep into the complex history of why or why not that argument was and still is *conditionally* valid because I’ve been making music and recording it into computers since the late 90s, and have no desire to go back to a pre “undo” world of failed punches, lost takes or using a crappy ¼” 8 track recorder, a couple of cheap Alesis 3060 compressors and a Mackie, TEAC or Behringer mixing board in order sound like it’s some poor college kid in the 90s making an album in his bedroom. Your DAW’s Relationship With Analog Emulation is, erm, “Complicated”Īs long as there has been digital audio there have been curmudgeonly purists, audiophiles, engineers and artists who grumble that it doesn’t sound as good as analog. ![]() The Lakers ran their offense through him. It was a bit fluky in that he made all four of his 3-point attempts after shooting 3-of-19 in the first three games of the series, but James was ultimately at his most aggressive in the first half. James scored 31 points in the first half. But the numbers themselves won't tell you the whole story. The final box score will tell you that we did: 40 points, 10 rebounds, nine assists and all 48 minutes played, save the final 4.3 seconds of the first half. and not enoughįor the first 24 minutes of Game 4, it looked like we were getting a vintage LeBron James game. Here are the main takeaways from Game 4: LeBron was incredible. The Denver Nuggets will play for the championship. But for now, the first ticket to the 2023 Finals has been punched. If the Celtics can do the impossible and win four straight? The Celtics will face the Nuggets. If the Miami Heat complete their own sweep on Tuesday, we'll have our Finals matchup tomorrow. Now the Nuggets will await the winner of the Eastern Conference Finals. A poor second half defensively paired with a 1-for-9 shooting half from deep doomed the Lakers down the stretch. His teammates couldn't lift him up when he needed them. He set a new career-high with 31 points in the first half, but managed just nine in the second. LeBron James played by far the best game of his postseason tonight with 40 points, 10 rebounds and nine assists. The Nuggets needed all 113 of those points to advance on Monday. It was a remarkable night for a Denver team that trailed by 15 points at halftime, but rallied back in the final two quarters to take care of the Lakers once and for all. They defeated the Los Angeles Lakers 113-111 in Game 4 on Monday, completing their series sweep and advancing to the Finals for the first time in franchise history. The Denver Nuggets are your 2023 Western Conference champions. Some of them seemed like they would be better but in the end the SH won primarily due to the features that came standard with the Spike software. I evaluated several low cost portable analyzers as well as the Tektronix RSA306 USB analyzer. All I needed was something to analyze modulation characteristics of a PCM/FM telemetry system. ![]() I was looking for a spectrum analyzer to replace an HP which proved too costly to repair. This is an unsolicited letter of praise for the Signal Hound USB-SA44B spectrum analyzer. Off the top of my head I wouldn’t know any alternative to it. But it’s the size of an oscilloscope and for field work the super-light and small SA44B is hard to beat. Nowadays you can buy full-blown spectrum analyzers with display and all for around $2k or twice the price of the SA44B which would make more sense for a lab bench. Long story short, if you are mostly after continuous wave carriers and not pulsed signals this analyzer is highly recommended. When the unit lost it’s calibration settings for some reason they emailed me the files for my serial number unit same day. People with lower back issues like myself will appreciate that. Which means I do not have to schlepp the big laptop along for field diagnostics. Signalhound stated that it won’t run with smallish 1GHz or less processors but to my surprise it does. So you have to use the old software which isn’t that great. What isn’t so great is that the latest software does not run under XP and many lab computer run XP (for good reasons). I had one case where I reduced all sorts of offending peaks and after the client re-ran at the agency lab the improvement was almost verbatim as the SA44B had predicted. The SA44B “hound” sniffs those out nicely. Micro processor clock, buses, oscillators and such. However, EMC issues typically entail constant carrier sources. ![]() You have to know that this is in essence a software-defined radio (SDR) so it won’t work well (or at all) for pulsed signals. The main purpose was to have an analyzer that fits in a small carry-on bag to measure stuff at clients who had EMC or other problems.

![]() The lube strip is said to decrease friction, but if the razor is left in the shower, it can melt off rather quickly. Also, for those with sensitive skin, it’s said that five blades may cause irritation on the face, especially if you have thick facial hair. You can apparently use it comfortably with or without shaving cream, although for people with sensitive skin, it’s advised to use shaving cream, especially on the face.Ī more negative Schick Hydro 5 review points out that, although the trimmer does a good job on tighter areas, the fact that it doesn’t pivot as much is an issue. The blades are sharp enough to achieve smooth skin, although you have to make a couple of passes over the same area for an effective shave. Other Schick Hydro 5 reviews state that while the flip trimmer is good for small areas, it has a hard time with thick hair. ![]() While the head is said to be a bit bulky to use on the face, it shapes itself pretty nicely on the body, with the trimmer being a nice addition. The pivot design is particularly favored for hard-to-reach spots, and the five blades are said to spread force across a larger skin area, for a closer shave. Replacement cartridges are sold separately.Ī positive review of this razor mentions how comfortable the handle is, which ensures less slipping, especially when using shaving cream. You can often buy the Hydro 5 with both the handle and a few cartridges included. The head of the razor is a bit bulky, which may make it difficult to reach tight spots. ![]() The blades don’t seem to completely shave off hair after the first pass, so it may take a couple of passes over the same spot for a clean shave. When the flip trimmer is up, it won’t pivot and adjust to the contours of your face very well. Below are some of the most common issues among users. The upgraded gel reservoir provides instant lubricating protection, so that you get less razor bumps and itchy skin.Īlthough the Schick Hydro 5 has many pros, there are some cons worth mentioning as well. For those hard-to-reach areas, the flip trimmer is easily accessible, with just a simple flick of the thumb. The soft, rubber grip handle is ergonomically designed to give you optimal control and better performance while shaving. The ultra-glide blades have skin guards at the top of each blade, which doubles the number of points of contact between the blades and the skin, for less friction and irritation. Since the razor has five blades, which make for less passes, the blades last longer, so you don’t have to worry about replacing the cartridge after just a few shaves. These include the razor’s five-bladed design, easy-grip handle, flip trimmer, and more. ![]() Luckily, the build of the Hydro 5 is flexible enough to comfortably maneuver around facial hair, working especially well under the nose and under the jawline.īelow are some pros that any Schick Hydro 5 review should discuss. The micro fins on the Hydro 5 gives the cartridge the ability to lift hairs and channel off shaving cream consistently.Īlthough the blades are sharp enough to achieve a close shave, it seems that it takes a couple of passes to really benefit from this razor. Its ergonomic handle has a rubber grip to give you more control, and the blades are a bit farther apart compared to most razors, so there’s less clogging and dulling. The Hydro 5 is one of the only disposable razors with a flip trimmer, which you can engage with your thumb, for use on tricky and hard-to-reach areas where you want a neater shave. It gives the razor a smoother glide across the skin. Its unique hydrating gel reservoir delivers 40% less friction, and it is designed to last at least twice as long as regular lubricating strips. The Schick Hydro 5 features five ultra-glide blades, with skin guards that reduce friction between the cartridge and the skin, which makes for less irritation both during and after shaving. It has a five-blade cutting surface, and a flip trimmer function for use on hard-to-reach areas, to get a more precise trim. For those who are familiar with its competitor, the Gillette Mach 3, the Schick Hydro 5 shares the Mach 3’s “paintbrush” style handle head. This is a Schick Hydro 5 review, in which we’re going to take a look at the Schick Hydro 5 razor and its features, along with its pros, cons, and opinions from its users. ![]() You can order any of these meats from our menu and experience them yourself. Pictured here: Backyard Taco Al Pastor Tostada The meat is so commonly used at barbeques, celebrations, and parties in northern Mexico that it has developed a synonymous meaning. In Mexico and other countries, Carne Asada can also be an event as much as it is a food. The meat can be served as a main dish or as a filler for tacos, burritos, quesadillas, etc. It is typically a sirloin steak that is marinated and cooked in all kinds of Mexican seasonings to give it a strong flavor. Our menu includes the top types of meats and preparations you’d typically find in Mexican cooking and street food.Ĭarne Asada or Steak – has been a staple of Mexican dishes for years. In addition to our fan favorite, Al Pastor, Backyard Taco is known for our Mesquite Grilled meats. All of our meats are marinated in herbs and spices that come from traditional recipes. For the last 15+ years they have been using simple and fresh ingredients to provide our guests with the real taste of Mazatlán, Mexico. Two of our founders and owners, Ruben and Marisela, have been sharing their love for food since 2005. Because of its cooking method, many Mexican restaurants can’t support the required trompo, so they have to make do with over or pan-fried, making the pork chewy and tasteless.īackyard Taco is different as we are truly an authentic Mexican restaurant. Authentic Mexican FoodĪl pastor is the staple of a premier Mexican restaurant. The slow-cooked nature of al pastor makes it a great carrier for stronger seasonings as it compliments them. ![]() Unlike its lamb brother, pork shoulder has a mild flavor and requires stronger ingredients to complement it. Ingredients such as guajillo chili, garlic, cumin, clove, bay leaf, and vinegar are commonly cooked into or served with al pastor meat. If you’ve gone to a small authentic Greek restaurant, you’ve likely seen them cut slices of lamb meat off of a trompo.Īl pastor is similarly prepared, but it is served with different ingredients. The meat is then slow-cooked in a vertical spit-roast that is called a trompo under charcoal of gas flames. However, before the cooking even begins, it is marinated in a number of staple Mexican ingredients such as dried chilies, spices, pineapple, and typically achiote paste. How is al pastor meat made?Īs mentioned previously, a boneless pork shoulder is slow-cooked on a vertical spit-roast. Now Al Pastor can simply be interpreted as a type of meat or even better as a cooking style of pork shoulder. It wasn’t until cooking styles such as burritos and quesadillas were introduced when the synonymous definition lost its meaning. In fact, there are some places where the term “al pastor” and “tacos al pastor” are synonymous with each other. What are tacos al pastor made out of?Īs you might already guess, tacos al pastor is made of al pastor meat or pork shoulder. Pork shoulder is slow-cooked to keep its tenderness while it is thinly sliced off the spinning spit-roast. Although the cooking style is identical to that of the Lebanese shawarma with its vertical spit-roasting method, the meat is completely different from lamb. What part of the pork is al pastor meat?Īl Pastor meat is taken from boneless pork shoulder. What makes the Mexican variation of lamb shawarma is none other than the type of meat used. ![]() This nearly identical cooking method to the Lebanese lamb shawarma is a vertical spit-roasted cooking method. Lebanese people immigrated to Mexico and brought with them their famous cooking method: lamb shawarma. Although al pastor is a Mexican meat, the style of cooking is an original of the Lebanese. The name translates to “Shephard Style,” which is derived from the origin of the cooking method. Thankfully we’re here to explain to you exactly what Al Pastor meat is… and why you should try it asap! What is Al Pastor?Īl Pastor is a traditional Mexican dish made with seasoned and marinated pork. Many people might see it on the menu but refuse to order it out of fear of the unknown. Al Pastor, a common Mexican meat, is one such example. If you’ve ever looked at a menu and wondered what something is but hesitated in ordering it, you know what I mean. Curiosity of the unknown when it comes to food can be a double-edged sword. Sometimes trying something new can be adventurous, and other times it can be disastrous. ![]() The price for CleanMyMac X is quite high, with a one-off purchase setting back new users $89.95 or $45 for existing users that want to purchase a new version of the app. The app itself is notarized by Apple and has earned various industry awards, so we think it’s safe to assume that installing it on your system won’t bring any unwanted surprises.

Then, ABC News says, a fax arrived with a time stamp of 8:26 a.m. The organization says the man never said what the story was.

Marks said Williams alleged that other employees made racially tinged comments to him, but said his EEOC claim was dismissed and none of his allegations could be corroborated. They say Williams filed a complaint with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission against Parker, and that Ward had reported Williams to human resources. Tweets posted on Williams' Twitter account Wednesday described workplace conflicts with both victims. Ward was engaged to a producer at the station, Melissa Ott, who was celebrating her last day on the job and was in the control room, watching it live, as the shooting unfolded, Marks said. The three, in the midst of a live TV interview, do not seem to notice the gunman, who doesn't start shooting until Ward points the camera at Parker. The shooter appeared to walk up to the victims and stand a few feet away from them while holding the weapon.
