Admin: Issues with Firefox

Just a heads up, but if videos are hanging for you on the two second mark in Firefox, you are not alone. I've been noticing it for the last couple of weeks and it's gotten worse. The only thing that seems to fix it is to close out of Firefox and try again and that does not always work. No problems in IE and it's not just this site. I see the same behavior on other sites including YouTube directly. I've been having to watch in IE and post in Firefox. If anyone knows anything about this bug feel free to comment.

Update: Possible fix via here:


First try installing the latest version of Flash (you're behind one; there was a recent release) using this procedure to see if that helps:

1. Download this uninstaller from Adobe.com
2. Download this installer from Adobe.com
3. Close Firefox
4. Run the uninstaller, then the installer
5. Open Firefox

If that doesn't do it, try it this way:

1. Download this uninstaller from Adobe.com
2. Download this installer from OldApps.com
3. Close Firefox
4. Run the uninstaller, then the installer
5. Open Firefox

There's also a rumor going around that Java can cause this. If you'd do this before trying the above stuff and report back, I'd appreciate it:

1. In Firefox, go to Tools > Options...
2. Click to the Content tab
3. Uncheck "Enable Java"
4. Close the Options window, restart Firefox, try a video

Good luck!"

I'm trying the second option.

Synthesizers.com Q118 Instrument Interface Amplifier

images via this auction

"The Q118 module provides an interface for external input sources such as a guitar, microphone, etc. The incoming signal can be amplified up to 1000 times. An envelope output is created that will track the amplitude of the incoming signal. This envelope can be used to control filters, oscillators, and other modules. A gate signal is created based on a manual threshold control which can be used to trigger envelope generators or sequencers. An LED indicates gate signal output to aid threshold adjustment. A short trigger pulse is also provided. An output jack provides access to the amplified original signal for use by other modules.

"some of my favorite things: 7 different waveforms on the oscillators, FM on the oscillators, 7 octaves on the osc., PWM on 4 types of the waveforms, run the filters in parallel or series, the BEST filters i have ever worked with :LPF is 24/36 dB with LP and BP and the MMF is 12/24/36dB with LP/HP/BP, both self oscillate. They both easily overdrive with high inputs."

Inside the V-Synth, part 3

You can find the full post on Sequence 15

"In this installment of Inside the V-Synth, we'll look at the V's onboard effects. The effects are divided into three blocks: multi-effects (abbreviated MFX on the panel and in the manual), chorus (which also includes some fixed delays), and reverb. Each of these blocks has a dedicated on-off button on the panel. All effects parameters are stored as part of the patch. One effect can be selected for each block at a given time."
