It can be a pain for any web developer/tester to ensure that a website design looks fine and OK on the major browsers. We can run IE, Firefox and Opera on one machine without any problems but what about running a different version of IE along with other ?
I was testing a blog design recently and wanted to check that how it will look on IE 6 as I’m using IE 7 now. Well, I stumbled upon an article recently which provided the links of standalone versions of IE 6 & IE 7.
Hulu is the new YouTube killer or a new way of watching the TV (I.e. on the Internet) or what ever, you’ve heard about it. Anyway, I got the invitation of Hulu (Lucky ME!) and after registering, I was able to watch the TV shows too.
Note : If you are interested in Hulu invites visit this link – over 1000 invites are left at the time of writing.
PianoFX Studio is a computer based piano synthesizer which looks great and feels even better to work on. A smart graphical interface resembling any modern day electronic keyboard welcomes the user. Tweaking around in the program for a couple of minutes is all that is required to use this software with ease.
And if you have had keyboard training or at least have a vague idea about the piano, nothing stops you from playing your favorite songs.
Playing the keyboard in this software is either using the mouse or the keyboard though I personally prefer the keyboard as it is much more flexible and easy to use. There are a set of melody samples much similar to the demo that is available in a normal electronic keyboard. 127 various musical and percussion instruments are provided for the user to select from and there is a 10 drum synthesizer machine.
Here is the review to Acoustica Mixcraft, the sibling of Acoustica Beatcraft (check the review here). Mixcraft is a multi-track audio recorder that also works great with loops. And for those who strictly label them computer musicians, there’s something for them too – downloadable ready to use loops to create your own sound tracks or a cool remix of your favorite song.
There can’t be simpler software designed to record songs. Start the program, plug in the mic, hit the record button and start singing right away! And you don’t need a band to produce your own CD. And if you have a band, the world is yours!
