Anyne know something better than iLap? Please

just bought one. still feelin some major heat coming off the laptop. def can't keep it on my lap for long.
anyone heard of belkin cushtop? other?
thnx

well, i use both idrum and guru. guru is crazy cool with alot if the stuff it can do, way too much. but to hit the highlites and comparison to ultrabeat(mainly the things it does that UB doesnt):
you have a sound browser where you can click the sounds and hear them and not blindy have to load samples in
the patterns are easily drag-able into the instrument track one created(stylus style)
the editing PER HIT in the patterns is crazy as well, can edit shift(if youd like that beat not exactly ON the grid, you can slide its position around) as well as any of the other parameters can be tweaked per beat (filtering, pitch, volume, pan, sample-start point and repeat triggers for glitch effect)
the application of 'feels' you can use (MPC swings, etc...)
there really is alot you can do with it, waaaay more in depth than idrum and waaaaay easier to use the UB:-)
my 2 cents!

  • Something better than the 'shear' filter..

    Hi, I am looking for something better than this primitive 'shear' filter. I need to shape an image with the help of a curve, just like in shear, but more professional than just with a vertical line inside a teeny-weeny window... Any ideas..? Curently working in Photoshop CS3.

    How can I add more curve points in Warp..?
    Unfortunately one can not, therefore the Illustrator Envelope Distort-recommendation.
    CS5 is supposed to offer improvements in this field … but no release-date has been announced yet.

  • Better than iDVD please

    Hi there friends,
    I was wondering if you can tell me a better DVD burning program a little better than iDVD please.
    I am ready to "up" my menu's ect and I looking for the best program.
    How much are they??
    Thank you

    Hi
    The Quality of DVD - is mostly not dependant on iDVD but on the DVD-standard
    (can't be better than SD-video - There are no HD-DVD that plays on standard DVD-players)
    If You need more
    • in iDVD keep movie less than 60 minutes and use Pro Quality or Best Performances
    • alt is Roxio Toast™ 10 Pro - where You can set higher bit-rate (less movie time)
    • or incl BD-component to Toast and burn a Blu-Ray DVD or by using BD-disk/burner
    a full Blu-Ray Disk (Need BD-player to be viewed eg PlayStation 3)
    • Or Copy back to Camera and connect this to TV/Screen
    • Or PlayBack via Mac on a large screen

  • Creating something better than Photoshop CC ?

    The basic CC concept  just doesn't work for many people, including myself. Bottom line: there must be a  perpetual license option for a basic photo image editing program. For many photographers, Photoshop Elements just isn't robust enough. My guess is that other companies will jump into this huge new market, but that's going to take time.
    It looks like Adobe is the only company in the position to produce a solution in the short term. So let's start there.
    Over at the Kelby Blog and NAPP (the "Photoshop Guys," NAPP memebers and Blog contributors) they are actually working on a product concept to present to Adobe in response to CC. It's initially being called "LightShop" and its basic premise is to be a stripped-down Photoshop CC that integrates with Lightroom.  It will have minimal Type, no 3D, no video, and less special effects and other bloat -- just a clear Lightroom-like interface that is smooth and fast. Most important, it sells as a perpetual license like Lightroom, for under $200. This concept sounds interesting -- if you're into Lightroom. I'm not.
    Another idea is for Adobe to offer something like a Photoshop Elements "Extended Edition." Now that they have killed the Standard Edition of Photoshop, a product like that would not encroach upon the now professional market focus of Photoshop CC. It would be relatively easy to produce because most of the code is already in Photoshop Elements for more advanced features  -- it's just turned off. ACR already comes with Elements, and Bridge could be included as before.  If some of the deficiencies of standard Elements could be addressed, and some of the consumer oriented bling thrown out, then it could be ideal for amateur to semi-pro photographers. Photoshop plug-ins would work as they do now. Sell a perpetual license for under $200, and I think a lot of non-CC customers would be happy. An upgrade from CS3 onwards would be great too, for maybe $100.
    But exactly what features would be best for a Photoshop CC alternative product? Is 16-bit necessary if you are global-editing RAW in ACR or Lightroom? Can you really tell the difference in a print or on the Web? What about Blend Modes -- do we need that many? How about just one sharpening filter -- the upcoming version of Smart Sharpen?

    You bring up a great point. Lets say when we eventually die and lets say our family or even clients want to see what we have done. Adobe with cc in a way has cut off your legacy by not having a perpetual program that can automatically open your files. Which is different from saving as older file type.
    If cc had more price options i would be very temped to join it. Ither a 30-40$/month plan for say a suite as they have done for years or pick your favorite 3 programs and 1-2 minior ones like bridge or acrobat. I would also like to see a 10-15/month plan for just 1 program but that is not a special offer but long standing price. Im sure the cc price will change within the next 12 months which is for good or bad why you can only lock in a 1 year plan. It would be nice if like a phone you could lock in your plan price for 2 years. At least you would know what to expect. Adobe should look at phone subscriptions and see how we get people to pay 90/month for a phone which for many is a toy and they cant get people to pay 50/month for tools. With phones when you renew your contract gennerally every 2 years you get a massive discount on some new phones and some will actaully be free or upto 70% off. Adobe shoudl consider this. The more adobe products you have the bigger your renew discount should be. They could do it as 2 year contract or have several durations besides monthly and yearly. Have a 6 month, 18 and 24 month. Say you pay 50/month for your contract duration of 1 year, when it comes time to renew you should have a discount lets say 10-20% off which would be 40-45$ which is handy. If you upgrade to cc and have a suite you should have a biggerest discount than just 1 program say instead of 40/month like 30/month for that contract duration and if you have master collection maybe 20/month for the duration. Then with those 2 suites when its time to renew still give a discount but maybe less. Maybe a suite becomes 40/month and master 30/month but give more discount than those who just renewed. Give us what feels like incentives not punishments.
    Ya having 3 almost 4 photoshops was getting a big crazy. Photoshop extended, photohop, photoshop elements and light room. I guess its good for adobe to consolidate but they could have done it with out the cloud. Just make elements and lightroom merged and bump up the price maybe 40%. I think thats fair. Similarly with photoshop and extended, merge the 2 and increase price to 1/2 way between both. Starts getting weird when you have many overlapping things. Like web design has dream weaver and muse. I would love to get that as 1 program or a package deal since they do the same thing but go about it differently. Merge them as 1 and increase price 40%. Same with indesign and incopy, merge them together and increase price 40%. This will make each program stronger and a better buy. Just good house keeping to simplify. Adobe offers so many things I honestly dont know what some of their new things like fusion do. Many have only been around 1-2 years and its becoming complicated to know about all their stuff especially when they start overlapping.
    Good luck adobe. I do love you but you are breaking my heart. I want to stay but you need to make some changes to help me want to.

  • Email Set-up...something better than Outlook Express 4.5?

    Happy New Year ~
    I'm trying to set up about 3 email accounts on an OLD iBook Blueberry running OS 8.6. It has Outlook Express 4.5 installed on it, and though it did "take" one of the email addresses yesterday (it was able to download mail from the server, but I didn't test sending any mail out), it hasn't been able to send/receive at all today. I'm not real familiar with Outlook, so don't know if I'm missing something. I tried checking two boxes that said things like: "Requires secure SSL/POP" because I do have passwords that are involved in accessing the server account, but still nothing.
    The computer did connect to the internet via ethernet and DSL, though, so that's not the problem.
    Anyway -- after all this, I'm wondering if there's any simpler email program I can maybe try downloading and using? Or any other suggestions?
    (I'm just spoiled, having been graced with an iBookG4 less than a year ago - my first Mac - and loving Panther and OS X..I'd love to upgrade to Tiger as soon as my budget allows)
    Thanks for any and all insight.

    Hi aToast...
    Yikes! ...your comment brings back a lot of memories - good and bad
    For some reason I do remember that you shouldn't have to check off the 'Requires Secure SSL/POP'. Aside from that just make sure you have both your incoming/outgoing 'mail server' and of course your password typed correctly.
    There are other programs you could try (I remember trying others but Outlook was always the best for me) ...take a look under the 'classic apps' on the Pure-Mac site for example - http://pure-mac.com/email.html
    If you could get up to os 9.2.2 then try the Mozilla Suite - that would be my pick for best classic browser and email combo.

  • Is there something better than CMD+Z for mass UNDOs?

    After a month of superb Macprovideo training in FCPX and futile searches of the "worthless" FCPX help[less] document, I cannot find more on a VERY BASIC subject that pertains to everybody using FCPX.
    EDITING HISTORY:  Since we have NO control over our SAVES,  how do you undo the last 50 changes --or-- undo everything since 10am?  Do I have to hit CMD+Z until I get callouses?   I did see a reference to TIMELINE HISTORY but the doc is skimpy & doesn't  seem relevant.
    If there is a window that shows a chronological order of changes & time with the option to UNDO, that would be great.   If I've missed it, please advise.
    Thank you for time & thoughts.

    Thank you R&B, you're an officer & a gentleman.
    BTY- I can never figure out why folks on this (and all other forums) have ALIAS names.  If they don't know you by your real name, then I can't see the purpose of an alias.

  • Need sodium vapor frequency specific filter something better than plain  orange

    Somebody tell the LIGHTROOM PHOTOSHOP TEAM THAT WE NEED A FREQUENCY SPECIFIC FILTER THAT TARGETS THE SODIUM VAPOR SPECIFIC FREQUENCY TO FILTER OUT THAT LIGHT POLLUTION IMMEDIATELY

    Just click Black & White. You cannot create with a filter what's not there in the first place.
    When you filter out all of that specific frequeny, no normal color information will remain. You'll only retain the contrast information (which you can bump nicely with Clarity).
    P.S. I think something went wrong with your Caps Lock or Shift key, maybe you should check it for glue or chewing gum.

  • Something Better than iWeb?

    I'm looking for a website program for the Mac that is as easy as iWeb but can build sites more like dreamweaver. I don't like iWeb because it's too private, family, media, mac like. Are there any programs for the Mac other than iWeb that are like this? (Without the confusing HTML).

    Sandvox is fairly similar to iWeb and has a Pro version with added features...
