Vocals for Blur – Song2 & Ramones – Blitzkrieg Bop

A trusty old bass playing friend of mine was doing some rough recording earlier this year for a few projects in Cape Town’s City Varsity Sound Engineering…

Not my usual vocal style (At All, so no laughing! ROTFL ) …but I agreed to helping him out. It was fun and funny…

Here’s snippets of what he and I managed to track in a very rough 2 hours or so vocal session…

Test Driven Development in Cape Town

TDD in the Cape

Most conventional forms of development developers use in their day to day efforts – are in the form of design first, develop after or develop and design as we go or some sort of mixture of the two. Then, just maybe – if you haven’t already juiced the tiny bit of time you have left before the deadline – you might have enough time to write a couple tests.

GhostDoc – A Free Code Documenting Visual Studio Plugin

I have a number of favourite Visual Studio plugins that I make use of… but if I was told I could choose only 1 plugin, it would undoubtedly be GhostDoc. This software is by far the most useful little plugin I have ever come across, and upon using it, I found myself questioning the countless hours of coding time I had spent before using GhostDoc.

So what is GhostDoc? It’s a lightweight, fast and robust tool that provides automatic documentation of your methods, properties and classes all with a simple and configurable shortcut: ctrl+shift+D

Razer Megalodon BETA firmware installation problems?

Struggling with the installation?

I found that my installation automatically updated from Windows update instead of letting me browse for the directory of the firmware i wish to use…

And each time I plugged into the same usb port more than once – the driver update wouldn’t initialize either as if that usb port was caching the fact that the install had been “successful”.

I did get around this, please follow this at your own risk though!

Razer Megalodon BETA firmware for Windows 7 64 bit fix

A Fix

Finally! After months and months, a BETA release of the firmware fix for Razer Megalodon on Windows 7 and I assume Vista 64 bit systems was here!

I have installed it on my Windows 7 64 bit system. And so far, without using a powered usb hub to fix the cut out issues, I have the pristine mic quality and perfect sound with no cutting out issues! (as one would expect by default!!!)

This fix should remove all issues for you too, but remember, this is a beta release! So if anything goes wrong, don’t blame anyone but yourself for installing it.

Myself and a few others have found this to be the solution we have all been waiting for so good luck and enjoy the fix… until we run into issues – I think we may have found a winner!
