Let's take a look at Simpler in classic mode.

So, I'm over here on this final track and this is an instance of Simpler.

I have just dropped a sample right in here and I have this on classic mode.

So, I'm going to open this up so you can see things a little bit clearer, zoom in.

So, I have set the start and stop markers to just a very specific part of this file.

I have the track armed as well.

So, I'll just quickly play some stuff.

[MUSIC]

So, the spiral is currently being warped which means that,

again, pitching time will be divorced.

So, as I play different pitches,

the time will be the same.

If I take this off of warp here.

[MUSIC]

Playing a high note. I'll go even higher.

[MUSIC]

I will play a very low note.

[MUSIC]

You can see how long it's taken a file to play back.

So, having things on warp is very different than having them off of warp.

Then you can again choose very specific warping algorithms

depending on the type of file that you have

and then you still do have these creative parameters

within which to carve the sound out.

So as it is, it's just basically playing back this clavinet sound.

[MUSIC]

Maybe that's the extent of what I want.

I just want this small piece of audio being played back at whatever pitch I create.

But let's take this even further and see what there is to see here.

I can put this on loop.

I'm going to shorten it so that we can quickly go through the sample.

[MUSIC]

You can see it's just going to immediately loop for me here.

[MUSIC]

I could change where this is starting.

[MUSIC].

So, now if I play this in different pitches.

[MUSIC]

It's a very different instrument than what I started with.

I can do more to it.

[MUSIC]

I could have it start in one place and then loop a little bit later

by adjusting start and loop parameters.

[MUSIC]

It's actually pretty interesting.

I'm going to open this up a little bit.

[MUSIC]

I can choose to re-trigger the envelopes.

[MUSIC]

You can hear that they're all in-sync in that respect.

[MUSIC]

When I have this on, they are not sync up

because I'm retriggering the envelope

whenever a new voice is being played.

I can adjust the number of voices, 6.

Obviously, if we go to 32, we're going to be maxing out our CPU

and you can set this to 1

if you wanted it to be a monophonic instrument at that point in time.

So, there's some more options that become available to us which is this fade parameter.

We can create a smooth transition in and out of where the sample is repeating itself.

But that is only available to us when warp is off.

So, limitations and options depending on how you want to have the sample be played back.

So, here, this is the backside of Simpler.

I could get to it by hitting that Controls option,

but I can also just open this up so I can see

the sample properties and the control panel simultaneously.

So, Simpler is very powerful

and also kind of a gateway into sound design

if you haven't gone down that rabbit hole quite yet.

Inside of the device, we have a filter, an LFO, and two envelopes which are assigned.

They're really easy to use to get creative with right off the bat.

So, here is a filter.

I'm just going to play a note.

[MUSIC]

Turn this all the way down to begin with.

[MUSIC]

So, I could set a filter really easily.

I've got different bands I could choose.

[MUSIC]

High-pass, low-pass, notch, bandpass, so on and so forth.

I can swap these out for different emulations of hardware filters

or just go with the digital clean one here.

You can see that when I choose one of

the hardware emulations else of this drive knob or I can distort things here.

Add some more gain as well.

Moving over to the LFO here,

I have some attack settings and offset settings

depending on how you want this LFO to react.

If you haven't gotten deeply into synthesis or the basic mechanics behind synthesis,

an LFO is a control signal which is going to

allow me to use characteristics of that signal such as frequency

or it's like a pendulum swinging if you will

and assign those to other parameters on this device.

So, for instance, I'm going to choose filter.

I'll pull this all the way up.

Right now, I have it set to an eighth note.

I could set it to a specific frequency itself.

[MUSIC]

You can hear that filter opening and closing now.

So, you can't visually see this,

but it's doing something like this.

[MUSIC].

Or I could set it to a BPM.

[MUSIC]

So, if I play this very low,

[MUSIC]

I'm getting something which is very much like a warble base.

So, I can do this with pitch.

[MUSIC]

I can do this with the volume.

[MUSIC].

Turn this down so it's a little bit easier to hear.

[MUSIC]

Tremolo effect. I can do this with pan.

[MUSIC]

So, full destinations for this LFO, right off the bat.

I can have it come in a bit slower if I want to by changing this attack setting here,

I could change the shape of the wave

most warble bases

[MUSIC]

or soft.

[MUSIC]

Over here on the envelope settings,

I have an amp envelope and the pitch envelope.

So, again, if you're not so familiar with the basics of synthesis,

an envelope is going to shape the evolution of the sound

from the moment the sound starts to the moment of sound ends.

So, I have the option.

We'll just use amplitude here.

I'll have this coming quite slowly.

[MUSIC]

Before it hits full volume.

[MUSIC]

We also have decay sustain release happening as well.

So, we're going to shape the way and

timing of how the sound goes from silenced to full volume.

So, let's say at around two seconds.

[MUSIC]

You can hear it happening.

[MUSIC]

I can set the release when I have this take a very long time to release here.

[MUSIC]

So, there's a lot of design opportunities and potential

just inside of Simpler taking a single sample

and turning it into it's own instrument.

This was originally a clavinet sound and now we have

created something which is way more spacey, more abstract, and customized.

The Revival of Keep It Classic [CC] - Duration: 3:41.

Hello, lovely humans.

It's Molly from Molly Reads and Writes, and uhm,

today this is just a really quick

little announcement?

Update video?

Uh, for the book club that I am part of.

*chill music*

*Looking down at ground,*

*our shadows make no sound,*

*a game of hide and seek…*

If you do not know, I am one of the hosts of the Keep it Classic book club.

Uh, the other hosts are Jasmine from Novel Thoughts,

we have Julia from Shakespeare and Such,

and Vanessa from Paper Faerie.

So, the four of us read one classic book every two months, so there is lots of time for snail

readers

like I am,

to uh, digest a classic and chat about it.

So, half way through the month we do a video watch along, and then at the end of lu-munth

The what?

At the end of the month we do a liveshow to discuss the book.

So, you should join us.

We run polls on Twitter, we run updates there also, as well as Instagram.

Our Twitter and Instagram is the keep classic club, so you can follow us over there, see

some updates.

Mainly, uh, Jasmine and Vanessa handle the Twitter and Julia and I handle the Instagram,

so it's quite fun.

We've taken a break, we're diving back into it, and we're going to succeed this

time.

Uh, we ran a poll for what our book of the month was going to be, and Persuasion by Jane

Austen is the February March pick.

So, you should go find a beautiful copy uh, at a bookstore… used bookstore… thrift

store… library near you… and join us.

So, yeah.

We'll be looking forward to chatting with you throughout the month, at the liveshow

hearing your thoughts on this, and uhm, yeah, it's perfect for snail readers.

So, if you read classics as slow as I do, two months is golden.

How many chapters is this?

Let's see.

Oh, shit.

It's roman numeral chapters.

Ha ha okay.

Uh, so X is ten so twenty… four.

Twenty-four chapters divided by eight.

Math is something I fail at, but that's like… two?

Chapters?

Twelves chapters a month, three chapters a week.

Sure.

Read it with us.

I'm gonna go.

Uhm, as you can tell it's been a while, anxiety sucks.

I really hope that you decide to join us in this and hang out and read and chat, it will

be so much fun.

Tell me what you've been up to in them months that I have not updated anything.

You should let me know in the comments down below.

Also let me know if there's any videos you want to see me do, coming up, because I am

here, I'm back.

I'm gonna try to film some videos today after I charge my camera battery.

Uhm, yeah.

You guys are wonderful.

Thank you for sticking with me and being super cool like that.

So, I hope that you have an awesome morning,

afternoon, or evening, whichever it is, wherever you are.

See ya!

ASMR Unboxing the Sony Playstation Classic — ASMR Unboxing - Duration: 13:40.

- What's up guys, it's your boy Ray Wong,

and I've got the brand new Sony Playstation Classic

in front of me.

Yes, it is the real deal.

This is the hundred dollar micro console

so it's Sony's version of the Nintendo Classic,

the NES Classic, the Super Nintendo Classic

and it comes with 20 classic games preloaded.

Two PS1 controllers, unfortunately no dual shock analogs,

and it looks like some kind of USB cable

and an HDMI cable which is great.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, what is this?

USB adapter not included.

What are we, cavemen?

I guess you could use your phone adapter, but still.

Alright, packaging is on point.

Definitely looks like

the original PlayStation one packaging.

So the games we have, there are 20 classic games,

not all of them are going to be classic to you

but let's see what we have.

We have Battle Arena Toshinden.

I don't think I've ever played that game.

Cool Boarders Two, that game was terrible in my opinion.

Destruction Derby.

Final Fantasy Seven, yes.

That game was on three discs, yes.

That's all I need, that's the only game this console needs.

Grand Theft Auto, the first one.

Intelligent Qube, Jumping Flash, Metal Gear Solid,

baby hell yeah.

Mister Driller, hell yeah.

Oddworld: Abe's Oddysee, eh.

Rayman, yes, yes, that is like the classic.

Resident Evil: Director's Cut,

that game, I don't think that game's gonna hold up well.

Revelations: Persona, alright.

R4: Ridge Racer Type 4.

Oh man, the physics in that game was terrible.

Super Puzzle Fighter Two Turbo, not bad.

Siphon Filter, Tekken Three, yes.

Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six,

I don't think that was a classic, guys.

Twisted Metal, okay.

Wild Arms, man, looking at these games,

I'm kind of disappointed.

Where's Crash Bandicoot?

Where's Spyro?

There's so many other classic PS1 games

that should've been included here.

I'm a little worried.

Like I said, Final Fantasy Seven alone,

that game was deep.

Cloud and Sephiroth and Chocobos,

let's just open this boy.

Cutting knife.

Ah.

Oh, that's different, check that out.

Doo, doo, doo, doo.

Clean packaging.

It just has the PlayStation One logo or PlayStation logo.

A box inside of a box inside of a box.

This is the third box.

There it is.

The PS1 Classic.

But first, instruction manual.

English, French.

No Spanish, that's weird.

Oh no, this is Spanish.

English, Spanish.

Okay, let's open this guy.

It's so small, it's like a baby, mini PS1.

Ta-da, ahh, it's so cute.

It is a perfect replica of the original PS1.

Not the redesigned PS1 O-N-E,

but PS1 with the number one.

Plastic.

(tapping)

It's pretty hollow inside.

This thing has an emulator,

it's not actually taking CD's.

So we've got a power button, a reset button

and an open button.

So an open button doesn't open the console, boo.

Wait, boo, that would've been cool for it to pop up

even though it wouldn't accept CD's.

(clicking)

That is clicky and tactile and springy.

Very nice.

And on back we have a micro USB port for power,

and HDMI port for video out,

and what is this?

What is this little guy over here?

Ah.

Does this even open?

I'm not sure to be honest,

I should probably read the instructions.

I'm not sure.

I'll check on that later.

But over here you've got your USB, memory card slots,

or USB controller slots.

And little felted feet.

Let me check the instructions.

You know what, that slot does absolutely nothing.

Let's see what else is in the box.

Controllers.

Classic PS1 controller

with your triangle, circle, X, square buttons.

(clicking)

Okay, I'm gonna open both of the controllers.

And we have the micro USB cable.

This is for power.

Did you guys just hear that?

That was my elbow cracking.

Ah.

Alright, a decent length.

This looks about six feet.

Five feet, six feet.

And last thing is the HDMI cable.

Let's just hurry up and get this out.

And this looks like a generic HDMI cable,

not Sony branded or anything like that.

And this is also, okay,

this is longer than my arm span

so I think that's like a 10 foot long cable, I believe.

Looks pretty heavy duty.

Okay, controller time.

This looks pretty long.

This says the controller length is one point five meters

or about, yeah, 59.1 inches, so about three feet.

And the HDMI cable is about 2 meters or 78.7 inches.

I think I said that wrong, it's 59 inches, not feet.

Okay, button testing time.

(clicking)

This controller is pretty light

without the dual shock analogs,

but pretty faithful replica of the original.

Let's open the other one.

Or rather, untangle the cable.

And let's plug these controllers in.

I like that little touch.

Ooh, that's not coming out.

If you yank on it, that's not coming out.

Oh, that is a solid connection.

And that's really it.

The controller is about the same size

as the console itself.

Look at that.

It's just an emulator.

It plays too many games.

I don't know how well the games hold up.

I'm gonna plug this into a TV later

and check it out and see whether the games are still good

almost what, 25 years later.

I think it's 24 years now.

So that's gonna be a good test.

I'm gonna try to plug it into an HD TV

and see if I can get a converter

to plug it into a CRT to get that really OG look.

So anyway guys, this has been an unboxing

for the brand new Sony PlayStation Classic.

This is 99.99 and it goes on sale December third.

Check out our full review on Mashable dot com.

See you guys.

All About Eve review � classic Hollywood updated with technical wizardry Stage The Guardian - Duration: 1:28.

All About Eve review – classic Hollywood updated with technical wizardry Stage The Guardian

Gillian Anderson and Lily James give fine performances but this version of the 1950 film might be a little too clever for its own good

Gillian Anderson and Lily James give fine performances but this version of the 1950 film might be a little too clever for its own good

This is a show that reeks of chic. It stars and Lily James. It is adapted and directed by the Belgian wizard Ivo van Hove from a classic 1950 movie by Joseph Mankiewicz. It mixes live action and film with technical finesse. Yet, for all its skill, I found myself admiring its cleverness more than relishing its drama.

When van Hove and his designer, Jan Versweyveld, applied similar techniques to Network at the National they improved on the movie by highlighting the transformation of TV news into a branch of show business. Here Im not sure what the staging adds to the story of the eclipse of a legendary Broadway star, Margo Channing, by her dedicated disciple, Eve Harrington.

The movie manages to be both a satire on, and a love letter to, the hermetic absurdities of the theatre industry. Some of the zing and zip has gone out of the stage version, which treats Margo as a tragic figure. At one point Anderson sits in front of a mirror while tricksy camerawork shows her fine features rapidly ageing: at another, the camera eavesdrops on her spewing into a toilet bowl while her party guests make merry. This feels more like an Ingmar Bergman movie than a Mankiewicz satire.

The use of technology is admittedly sophisticated. At a celebrated Stork Club dinner party a ferocious encounter in the ladies room between Eve and Karen, wife of a famous playwright, is projected on to a screen as it happens: at the same time we see the subjects of their debate swilling champagne downstage. But there is a palpable irony to the fact that we are always conscious of watching a piece of directors theatre. This is very much Van Hoves show, whereas All About Eve depicts a vanished theatrical world where sacred monsters like Margo Channing ruled the roost and the writer and director were seen as totally subservient.

This is not to deny that the actors do a good job. Even if it is hard to accept Anderson as a fading beauty, she invests Margo with a slow drawl and a pensive awareness of her own dispensability: shes less of a testy termagant than Bette Davis but more vulnerable in the style of Tennessee Williamss Blanche Dubois. Lily James also captures Eves mix of faux naivety and sly cunning and her features positively glow when the camera goes up close.

The most striking performances, however, come in the subsidiary roles. Monica Dolan is outstanding as Karen, the watchful civilian in a world of embattled theatrical pros, and Stanley Townsend is superb as the power crazed critic, Addison DeWitt, who dispenses his bon mots with the steel tipped venom of a would be performer. Sheila Reid as a witty dresser, Julian Ovenden as a fraught director and Rhashan Stone as a gullible playwright lend good support but, in the end, the show remains a clever, mixed media hybrid that never achieves the emotional pull of first rate drama.
