Korg Legacy Collection Win MacOSX | 719 MB
Since 2004, Korg's Legacy Collection plugins have helped thousands of users to incorporate the unique sounds of some of Korg's most coveted synths into their productions and performances. Korg's proprietary CMT (Component Modeling Technology) method literally models each component of the signal chain within the original synth for unparalleled realism. Trust us, we've done the comparisons. Includes: Legacy Cell v1.3.0, M1 v1.7.0, MDE-X v1.3.0, MonoPoly v1.1.0, MS-20 v1.3.0, Polysix v1.3.0, WAVESTATION v1.70.
The Legacy Cell software synthesizer combines the sound of the Korg MS-20, Polysix and MDE-X in one dynamic performance unit.M1In 1988, the M1 created the workstation category and went on to become one of the top selling keyboards of all time, easily surpassing an amazing 100,000 units. The M1 software synthesizer reconstructs the M1 into an eight-part multi-timbral tone generator featuring up to 256 notes of polyphony. Topping the list of software improvements are variable filter resonance, two Insert effects per part, and two Master effects. The M1 also contains all PCM, Program, and Combination data found in the original M1 and M1EX PCM expansion sets, all 19 optional ROM cards, plus the full sound set of the acclaimed T Series. Plus there are plenty of new sounds – including some slammin' drums. That's over 3,000 sounds total!• 256-note polyphony (Maximum)
• 8 Part
• 3,100 presets sounds; 400 user locations
• 950 PCM Waveforms
• 34 Types of on-board effects
This multi-effect plug-in provides 19 seriously high-quality effects derived from Korg's digital recorders, workstations & synthesizers, and stand-alone effects. As such, they are the perfect complement to any of the Korg Legacy Collection synthesizers, and a welcome addition to any computer music rig. Equipped with 128 programs, the MDE-X Effects Suite provides a full arsenal of sonic treatments and toys, ready to satisfy all of your recording, mixing and sound design needs – even live performance!
• Sampling Frequency up to 192 kHz
• 19 Effect Types
• 128 Programs
• Dynamic Modulation
The Mono/Poly was a monophonic behemoth with polyphonic capabilities that many musicians acclaimed as the best analog synthesizer Korg ever made. And we've improved its functionality in software by adding eight powerful virtual patches for near infinite modulation routing, two integrated multi-effects, 16-voice unison and up to 128 voices. The Mono/Poly offers four full banks of rich, fat sounds, covering everything from deep basses to soaring leads; fine arpeggiator patterns to riveting soundscapes. And you'll never get lost looking for sounds, using the Mono/Poly's simple category select feature.
• 128-note polyphony (Maximum)
• 1 Part
• 256 Programs with Program Browser and audition function
• Advanced Unison mode; up to 16 stackable voices, Detune, and Spread
• 8 Virtual Modulation routings; 159 Sources, 35 Destinations
• Two multi-effect processors
This semi-modular monophonic synthesizer has enjoyed unbroken popularity for its thick and solid sound, aggressive filters and inexhaustible patching possibilities. The software MS-20 adds 32-voice polyphony, up to 16-voice unison (with detune/spread) and flexible modulation settings, plus the ability to sync with external gear via MIDI. Call up or create anything from super silky bass lines to incredibly organic, ever-changing leads. Also enjoy the MS-20FX plug-in. This unique plug-in lets you run any external audio source – vocals, guitars, even other synths – through the coveted MS-20 oscillators. The full patch bay remains available as well, lending unique modulations to your audio. The only limit is your imagination!
• 32-note polyphony (Maximum)
• 1 Part
• 32 Programs
• Advanced Unison mode; up to 16 stackable voices, Detune, and Spread
• Dual external modulation routings
• MIDI clock sync
• MS-20FX module allows processing external audio through the MS-20 filters
The Polysix synthesizer provided a surprisingly full sounding voice structure and powerful performance functions. Combined with the super-smooth internal Chorus/Ensemble effect, it quickly became a worldwide hit. The Polysix software recreation gives you all the power of the original hardware and then adds more polyphony, an advanced unison mode and modulation enhancements, readying this classic for modern music production. Conjure sweeping pads and evolving soundscapes, tremendous unison leads and basses, in the pocket arps and beyond.
• 32-note polyphony (Maximum)
• 1 Part
• 32 Programs
• Advanced Unison mode; up to 16 stackable voices, Detune, and Spread
• Dual external modulation routings
• MIDI clock sync
In 1990, the WAVESTATION introduced the world to both Advanced Vector Synthesis and Wave Sequencing, winning numerous awards and legions of fans. The software addition of a graphic interface and the possibilities of MIDI sync have breathed new life into the WAVESTATION. The addition of resonant filters is another triumph for the fans of this unique instrument. In addition to the entire series' RAM and ROM banks, the WAVESTATION adds all the data contained in the six long-sought-after ROM cards for a total of over 1,450 sounds!

A new leak has revealed that #MetroPCS will be unveiling the #LG #Stylo2Plus (Stylus 2 Plus) and the #Samsung #GalaxyOn5 on its shelves soon. The revelation was made by a leaked internal document, which revealed the handsets that will be unveiled by T-Mobile's prepaid subsidiary by the end of this month.
The Galaxy On5 will supposedly cost $59 from the carrier, which is not surprising given the hardware. The LG Stylus 2 Plus on the other is shown to be carrying a price tag of $149.
Both handsets will be launched on the 27th of June, so there's still some waiting to do if you're looking to snatch these up. The carrier recently launched the Galaxy J7 and the LG K10 on its networks, so MetroPCS is seeing immense potential in budget ranged offerings. Much to our surprise, the Samsung Galaxy S6 reached end-of-life status last month, suggesting that the carrier wants to focus strictly on the budget and mid-ranged devices.

An empty nail polish bottle is needed. I used acetone in cleaning my polish bottle. I used three shades of orange polishes and a white polish. I'm not a big fan of the color orange that's why I decided to franken a shade of orange that I would want. I want something subtle and close to tan.
I cannot really use my Caress neon orange polish. It is too neon! Imagine having a road reflector on nails. So to put it into a better use, I frankened it!
I swatched the polishes on the paper.
Maybelline Mini Colo rama has some shimmery little glitters.
Here is how it turned out when applied. I am really happy with the result! This is my mom's hand!
It was a really subtle shade of orange. Just the way I expected it!
It kind of looked like China Glaze Osaka to Me Orange. Photo courtesy of polishaddict:
And then, I was inspired with one of Nail Nerd's designs. Check out her blog! She has amazing freehand designs.
Now, please don't laugh! They're supposed to be roses. But they look more of strawberries than roses. What do you think? Hahaha! I was running late to school that time. Just had to finish the design. So..there!

$20 Modest Outfit Challege
21 comments :
Op (thrift)-shopping is so much fun! I've put together a few lovely outfits for under $20 on my op-shopping adventures :)ReplyDelete
This looks like a such great outfit. love the colours.ReplyDelete
The lace on the back of that top really is perfect - a good detail without skin really showing through. A really good find!ReplyDelete
My outfits would definitely be pricier - I have a really hard time finding thrift-store or cheap jeans that fit so I have to kind of invest in pricier jeans... and then I just wear them nonstop. So my outfit cost would be like 2/3 jeans and 1/3 every other thing I'm wearing.
I'm going to go with probably ten dollars at most! Everything I wear (except for maybe two pieces) is from the thrift store! It's awesome! I like the outfit! You're always so pretty :)ReplyDelete
My average total per outfit I wear normally is probably around $50-60. I spend about $30 on jeans (or $15ish on skirts), then add in a $10-$15 top and some $20-$30 shoes, and there you go. I get lots of use out of my clothes though, so the numbers aren't really as high as they sound! I haven't bought new jeans in probably 3 years! I do buy inexpensive clothes and shoes at the end of a season, but I don't really count those into this average because let's face it, $5 boots are out of the norm!ReplyDelete
My outfits are normally $20 or less. Most of my clothes come from thrift stores so that helps keep my apparel on a budget. Beautiful outfit! Thanks for posting. I always look forward to the next post.ReplyDelete
That's such a pretty shirt! I'd say my casual outfits are around $20, but my fancier ones are a little pricier.ReplyDelete
I would guess around 10, if I wear jewelry then 15. (Shoes not included! Typically I buy $10-20 shoes, but they last a couple years)ReplyDelete
Cute shirt! I love it :)ReplyDelete
What a fun challenge!ReplyDelete
My outfits are typically well under $20, most of the time. Except lately my feet have been finicky and I've had to start buying more expensive shoes.
Oh well!
You look beautiful, Olivia.

My average cost per outfit is probably about $18 to $20.

The average cost of most of my outfits (top, pants/skirt, and sometimes shoes) is probably 5 dollars! We shop the dollar rack at goodwill all the time :-)ReplyDelete
I love your outfit! The design on the back is so beautiful, yet still modest. And a skirt like that is now on my to-buy or to-make list.
- AnonymousJune 14, 2015 at 8:25 AM
I keep most of my outfits at 20$... mostly :) I love our thrift shop, once I got three really nice skirts, three very nice sweaters and two little outfits for my little brother, Grand Total: $21.63
Super cute outfit! Love the lace back!ReplyDelete
- AnonymousJune 15, 2015 at 7:55 AM
I am the same Anonymous that replied most recently to the Coral + White outfit. My name is Annalise Ikeler. That's a really cool challenge; it must have been really fun. I especially love your shoes in that outfit -- I love sandals but I have way too many shoes right now! Yes, I also do a lot of thrift shopping which I really like, because I always seem to find so many awesome clothes that I love! And isn't it great when you buy something at a thrift store then take it home and realize it matches perfectly with something else you have? I think my average outfit costs from $15 to $30 or so. But like I said, I love to sew too, and just yesterday I wore a beautiful sundress I had made last year but only got to wear once. It fits absolutely perfectly, and I got a lot of comments on it yesterday! I want to make another one like it soon. Anyway, you look great like always! (By the way I really liked your Study Your Face series; it really helped me a lot. Maybe you can do another one like that again soon?:)ReplyDelete
My sisters and I get A LOT of hand-me-downs (which we love!) from our friends. Almost all the rest of our clothes come from Plato's Closet! So nearly all of my outfits cost less than $20! Yesterday's church outfit (which I got a lot of compliments on) was probably only around $10!ReplyDelete
LOVE IT! Thank you.ReplyDelete
Such a fun and feminine outfit. You look beautiful! : )ReplyDelete

Hey, Olivia! I was looking at your pictures, and I noted you have very well toned arms! (Forgive me if this is in any way offensive, weird, or irrelevant.) If you do any workouts, mind sharing them? Thanks!ReplyDelete

Can't they please go away? zlib is rather low in the stack, so is going to be one of the last packages to drop biarch support. Currently, ia32-libs, wine, lsb, nvidia-graphics-drivers, and zsnes all depend on biarch zlib packages. Of course, all of these packages appear to be specific to amd64, so I don't know why Mark would be adding new biarch packages for s390.

Gateway Series E DesktopReviewing: Gateway E Series | Rating:
I work in an office and am on my computer all day. About 5 years ago I got a new computer and was given a Gateway Series E. It is their slim line computer and up until about 6 months ago I would have recommended this computer to everyone.
I recently started having problems with overheating. In the middle of working my computer will just shut down. I have to wait about half hour before I can turn it back on and I get a message that I have had a thermal event! Sounds serious. I am getting a new fan for this computer but have been told that this is a major problem with all thin style desktops. There is not enough room in the case and they tend to overheat.
That is the only reason I gave it a lower score, although it has been 5 years since I have had this computer so I guess I can't complain too much.
It has been a work horse for me and this is the first problem I have had with it, but it is very frustating and now the concern is that the fan won't fix it and if it happens to many times I will lose everything.
This computer has a cd/dvd burner and also has a floppy drive, don't find computers with that anymore. It is a Pentum 4 CPU with 3.00GHz. It has 496MB of RAM but is capable of being upgraded to 1GB (which if the fan works I may ask them to do.)
All in all it is a great computer for a PC (Sorry I am a MAC fan!) and other than overheating it has done it's job. Just want to warn everyone that the slim line is known for having these problems.
I think the company paid about $600 for this computer which isn't bad either.

I painted over her with clear gesso and lightly sanded after it dried then applied more pencil. The pencil does not seem to burnish as well after the gesso goes on but it sure does take that pencil quite nicely. It's good for going back over darker areas or adding texture. I shall keep practicing but I think I'm on the right track. Note to self, there's no better time than now, you can do it! Be fearless.

CLASH Blog: CLASH Champion Gavin Quinn (02/17/11)
February 17, 2011 · Print This Article
January 29th was a night I will never forget. Unfortunately for a lot of you, you just may have missed it. If you weren't in attendance for Seize The Day IV, or as i call it "THE GAVIN QUINN SHOWCASE 4," you just are as dumb as you look. But, if you happened to get out of your seat to get some popcorn, take a piss, buy yourself that new Gavin Quinn dog tag, find your false teeth or change your 12 year old's diaper, you probably missed the best 7 minutes in CLASH WRESTLING HISTORY!
Yes, you read that right. Gavin Quinn defeated former WWE/WCW/TNA/NWO/D-X star X-Pac in just over 7 minutes!
Every person in attendance that night came to see X-Pac put his old and diseased walnuts in Gavin Quinn's face. You perverted parasites would love that wouldn't you?? Well on January 29th, the only thing that was "busting" was Sean Waltman's dignity, and any hope of him ever pissing regularly again.
Which brings me to my next opponent, "Maple Leaf Muscle Petey Williams." Petey, this meeting between us will end much like our last, yet oh so different. You see, this past year in the NPCI Tournament (or as I call it "THE GQI"), Tommy Treznik and I defeated Petey Williams and his handicapped buddy Zach Gowen. But instead of walking out of that match with both my hand and head held high, I was being carried out by CLASH Wrestling's mutant security guards.
Petey, "The Canadian Destroyer" you gave me could have ended my career…
Can you imagine CLASH Wrestling without it's number one star?! No you can't, because there would be no CLASH WRESTLING without GAVIN QUINN! The company would fold and suicide rates in girls ages 18-25 would go through the roof!
I hope planting me with your flipping piledriver felt good Petey, because I know kicking your face in will feel equally as great. On February 26th, Petey Williams will be the only Canadian getting 'destroyed'.

"We expect second quarter recurring revenues to be in the range of $72 million to $80 million, and past sales of $100 million to $130 million," noted Richard J. Brezski, Chief Financial Officer, InterDigital. "Our current level of recurring revenues provides a foundation to drive strong financial performance and free cash flow for the foreseeable future. Moreover, with roughly half of the market under license, we believe there is ample opportunity to continue to add to our recurring revenue base while adding little variable cost."
These updated expectations are based on preliminary accounting results that are subject to review and finalization and they do not include any contribution from the arbitration award the company received in May related to its agreement with Arima. The company will recognize any revenue related to the Arima arbitration award when all criteria for revenue recognition have been met.
This revenue guidance is based on royalty reports received and license agreements signed to date, and does not include the potential impact of any new patent license, technology solutions or patent sale agreements that may be signed, or any other arbitration or dispute resolutions that may occur, during the balance of second quarter 2014.

It finally happened.
I actually got to go on the glacier tour.
And it was worth all the waiting and the heartbreak.
After having been turned away so many times, I was VERY skeptical up until the our helicopter landed on the ice. I just kept expecting them to radio in and cancel our trip at the last second. Even after getting FULLY suited up (at least we got past just the pants and boots this time!), we walked down the street a ways to the helicopter pad, but I was still not convinced it was happening. Our group was divided into two helicopters, and I was on the second one. I was still expecting them to cancel between the first group and my group, so was refusing to get excited about anything, but as fate would have it, our helicopter came back and delivered my cohort to the glacier to meet our guide for our glacier exploration experience!
Chopper time! That's Erin on the left.
Finally getting excited!
And the ride was amazing. Join us:
Here we come!
Franz Josef Glacier, it all its glory.
Erin had the best seat in the house for aerial pics.
Ladies and Gentlemen, we are ON THE ICE!
And the Ice is Nice!
Everyone was so excited to be on the glacier.
Look how bewildered everyone is! Sheer amazement and curiosity. It was like walking in some fairy tale ice world. Everyone was snapping pictures, touching the ice, peeking down every crevasse, etc.
More standing around while our guide worked on the stairs...
So my one complaint (ASIDE from all the HAIR on the pathways! seriously! Long dark hair was scattered all over the place! They should pay someone to go Hoover up all the hair. It was gross enough that everyone noticed it and thought it was weird, which is probably a significant amount given that it distracted us when we were in such a stunning place that should be free of hairballs. It was like some girl just went through dropping pieces of her hair every step of the way)... ahem. sorry. So my one true complaint was that we spent a lot of time standing there while our guide chopped steps that were overall not completely necessary. I can understand how these need constant attention, but he started the tour by telling us that 'how much we get to see totally depends on how much loitering you do'. False. We spent at least 40% of our time standing while he chopped steps. BUT, if you have to stand around while someone chops a path for you to walk around safely on a GLACIER, then I guess at least the scenery is nice while you wait.... Life is just tough sometimes, ya know?
Loitering time and hairballs aside, this was an epic experience.
Ice World
Erin loving her life.
The first part of our tour was through a lot of steep crevasses and a couple of little caves. Then we came up to a nice open flat area a little higher up on the glacier, just below the crazy jumbled portion, which is off limits to everyone. The views were spectacular.
Pretty sweet picture for that dude.
Every direction was beautiful.
The scale is hard to appreciate, but the black spec to the left of the very center of this picture is a cluster of people.
We were pretty happy this panned out and that it didn't rain on us.
The forbidden zone.
No argument from me.
Still excited.
Ice alcove.
Heading back down the glacier towards the helipad.
Feeling pretty good about this whole glacier thing.
Erin and Cole: Glacier Explorers
Our Chariot awaits!
And away we go!
That was a pretty stellar experience, made even sweeter by the multiple failed attempts.

Welcome to September
This weekend I may enter a trail race to get in my 26K. Check it out here. I originally debated on running the 50K, but after Quebec and my left side issues, I think I'll play it safe and just run a slower trail race, which will be perfect distance if I end up running Scotiabank marathon in a few weeks.
I hope everyone enjoyed the holiday. Happy running and thanks for reading!

I'm the exact same way with the heat; it absolutely kills me. I feel nauseous, weak and just plain miserable running in it. REALLY hoping for decent temps for Sept. 28th!!
That trail run sounds like a great way to log your 26K this weekend.
To answer your Q. re: Nike+...I do like it, but the data I posted (showing Total Time VS Moving Time) is actually from my Garmin. Total time is the time including time when the Garmin was paused (i.e. at our orange rest stop, bathroom break, etc.)
The Nike+ is a neat little toy and it's actually a lot more accurate than I expected. I use it to upload my runs on Runner+ here: http://www.runnerplus.com/people/mmmarlene

The line "I'm just like one of the guy's" is one all of us have heard spill out of women's mouths time and again in order to sound like the cool chick.
Let me clue all of you in that have said this before... No! If I had a newspaper handy I would roll it up and swat you on the nose with it. No! No! No! you are most certainly not just like one of the guys and trust me you certainly don't want to be treated like one of us. Take a step back from the utopian belief and see how us men treat our even our best of friends.
Even Something as simple as a nickname between guys becomes something ugly. Ladies you like when your man calls you those cute pet names like "Sweet Heart," "Baby Girl" "Honey," "Peaches" or something as endearing as "Sugar Britches" well you could forget all about those. You see as men we find whatever is our weakness, mistep in life or worst attribute and this is our new name for you. I can tell you I have a friend named Mike who went missing for a bit because he got married and had a couple of kids. He just dropped off the map and we heard through the grapevine he was in a car accident. He has been known as "Dead Mike" ever since he turned back up. Be just a little overweight and seen one time with your shirt off your new nickname is something like "Skinny," "Grimmace" or "Jimmy Doughnuts" That's enought to drive most women straight to the corner of Binge Street and and Purge Avenue. Think about if you were just one of the guys and just once you let out a fart completely by accident. Your now known as "Smelly Sally." Actually I know one of those and that fart was definitely NOT an accident!
Ladies when you get sick from imbibing a bit too much wine you have your sisters there to circle the wagons and take care of you. Sort of like a team of super heros. Everyone has a job and they all come out of nowhere. It usually starts with a couple of girls coming in to run interference and get you away from the creepy guy that has been feeding you drinks all night. another two shuffle you off to the bathroom one to hold your hair and another to rub your back while they both tell you that you look just fine and no one saw you flash the entire line of guys waiting to get into the mens room. G-rated and none of them would give anyone even the inkling of what the night turned into. Then there is the runner. Her job it to get things like water or crackers. She also plays an intrical role in getting the rest of the troops together and out to the get away car. If there are any others looking like they are about to make time with a nice young man she is also known by us men as the "we gotta go girl" or "cock block. This girl is usually pretty simple to spot as she is also the one that every guys "wingman" has to distract in order to make our night a success. If not given sufficient
Now men with the same senario. You once again are completely hammered. We too all have jobs. First we have the staff photographer whos sole job is to start taking cell phone pictures of you and posting them on Facebook. Then the Coach. He is the one that starts giving you advice and pep talks on how great you look and how you are the man for taking another shot! He also tells you through giggles that the woman
While we are on the subject maybe you do have a lot of friends that are guys. However I can tell you with pretty solid certainty that most of them want to sleep with you if given the opportunity. The ones who don't are more than like gay and they still want to see your boobs and the others have already slept with you gotten sick of your crap but would still take a one timer if offered. Get drunk with any one of these guys and I all but garantee you wake up with your bra re-hitched crooked and your pants undone. Your only saving grace will be if you wear your special period panties that night.
So the bottom line here is unless you can pee your name standing up in snow without getting any in your sock. Are a ringer at an otherwise male dominated sport or remaking a great 1980's movie. And even then you are NOT one of the guys! Embrace the fact that you have a utterus and enjoy your fruity tasty drinks in public without people questioning your gender or sexual preference.
