Sylenth1: my favourite VST

sylenth1. Now i know if any music producers look at this, they'll probably disagree. but then again, most of them dont make distorted or 'wobble' basses. This plug in is pretty good if you want to make dubstep, the interface is pretty easy to use if you know how to make the LFO work. also, you can get some pretty heavy sounds if you know exactly where to tweak.
A drawback of this plug in is that it's about $120 dollars,  but I'm sure people can find ways around it ( I didnt just say that) And to be honest, you get what your money's worth.
also, there's a record and write function on the plug in itself. the write function lets you mess around with any of the buttons or knobs on Sylenth and they will be remembered and put into the next bar that Sylenth is being used on ( Perfect for dubstep)
You can also strip down the sound or synth that you've put in to be edited, this means that you can just get the bare sound and nothing else, which makes it easier to edit and keep track of.
Overall, i'd say that this is a worthy buy. it may not come with any presets, but you can find them pretty easily and find a way around paying for them if you need to, although i recommend paying so that you have less chance of anything going wrong with the actual plug in (or getting virus's on your computer) so if you have a DAW, then buy it.

iOS 5.0.1 Jailbreak (UNTETHERED) W00T Redsn0w

Disclaimer: I take no responsibility for any damage done to your iDevice, (even though nothing will happen) but just in case you do, in abbreviated terms (You F**k up dont sue me!) As long as you follow my instructions to the letter all should be fine

Step 1. Download Redsn0w from the iPhone dev team blog, under the thread untethered holidays Dev-Team Blog dont worry its virus free!

Use Beta 3 or the latest release


Step 2. Extract Redsn0w to the desktop and ignore the boot ipt4g shortcut!

Step 3. Now here is where we should stop, if you are on windows vista or above i.e. 7 right click on properties and click on the compatibility tab and select run this program in compatibility mode for Windows XP service pack 3, if running on WinXP make sure you have updated it through windows update as much as you can!

Step 4. Now run redsn0w and click jailbreak (WARNING, MAKE SURE YOU ARE ON IOS 5.0.1 NOT iOS 5.0 or lower.) Then follow the instructions on screen until you see the exploiting with Limera1n/Waiting for reboot. Now depending on what device you have the next step maybe different, if you want an unlock but never want to update your iDevice again and risk bricking it totally Click Install iPad baseband and look at the warning message that appears, But if you just want the jailbreak click install cydia.

You may also see the install multitasking gestures checkbox, ONLY IF ON IPAD SHOULD YOU USE THIS, Otherwise it will make you do this to your iPod

Now you will see this screen when you click next

Step 5. then your iDevice will display scrolling code, THIS IS NORMAL, be aware if you are using this on an iPhone 3GS you may see this line of code
http://cfile22.uf.tistory.com/image/...4D5E2012269D42

and your iPhone may appear stuck.

Just unplug iPhone from redsn0w for 5-15 seconds (doesnt really matter how long) and plug straight back in DO NOT CLOSE REDSN0W AT ALL Otherwise your iPhone will be stuck on the same screen.
(If you didnt read this and went straight ahead and shut everything down, or suddenly decide you dont want to jailbreak anymore, dont worry just unplug iPhone and do what the photo says here

Step 6 You should see this screen if no problems have occured yet and your iPhone hasn't frozen

http://nerdtrek.com/wp-content/uploa...-ios-4.2.1.png

DO NOT TURN IPHONE OFF ON THIS SCREEN!

then just slide to unlock and you will see cydia, BUT DO NOT OPEN YET!

Do this step again until you see the apple logo ->

http://cdn.guidingtech.com/mobiles/w...wer-button.jpg

then on reboot theres 2 more steps before your done.

Step 7/ 1st step before end Open Cydia.

And answer 1 of these 3 questions

Do you want to make your iPhone look awesome and nothing else/new to jailbreaking
Then click user.

If your experienced to jailbreaking and want a little bit more click hacker

Social networking sites could be shutting down

SOPA could mean that social networking sites would shut down just to stop it. This would mean health benefits for everyone who are addicted to this, but it would mean that people would lose touch, be MORE bored and it would just be a general catastrophe.

Fastest phones on the market

Some amazing stuff here!

Modern warfare 3 DLC pack being available to Elite members next month

I never really got elite, it just looked like some sort of stupid way for infinite ward to make money. But now i can see the benefits.
Elite comes in both free and paid versions, free users being able to sign up and create profiles, where as the paying users can get free access to the new DLC, it seems.
All that has been said about the DLC is that the players will "see things that have never been seen before" meaning that if you are a paying user, then expect some superb maps and add ons, I hope.
Elite only came out last month, it was launched on xbox first and then came for the PS3. A PC version is still being developed.
Modern Warfare 3 has generated somewhere around $1 billion in revenue, making it the highest grossing Call of Duty game to date. hopefully they'll spend this money maximising the storage space on the Elite server, as it's buckling under the immense amount of players joining.

Red dead redemption: undead nightmare

the original game was just amazing, I didnt think that this add on would live up to the standard set, but boy did it live up to it.

Even more gore, mythical creatures and a storyline that was easy to follow, plus altered weapons and ofcourse, zombies. who wouldnt love this game?

so lets start off with the storyline. Marston is home and it's raining outside, he goes outside and uncle is somehow a zombie. he infects Johns family so john decides to tie them up and go for help, only to find that everyone else has been infected. So John has to single handedly go around and exterminate all of them and make the wild west safe again.

special features and special potions, altered guns and ofcourse, mythical creatures. i especially loved the 5 horses of the apocalypse, Particularly death. But hey, whatever floats your boat.

The story isnt too long either, plus you have lots of other things to keep you preoccupied along the way. I also love the yeti mission.

It's only 800 points (I think, dont hold me too it) which means that you get lots of content for hardly anything.

So overall, this is definitely something you should buy if you loved the original Red dead redemption. It has all of your characters again, and gives you many characters and add ons for multiplayer aswell. I thought it was a good buy, hope you do too.

Why we need windows phone 7

Now, i'm more of an apple product user. and to be honest, their 'iOS' has kind of won over Android. Android isnt as good as Apple in opinion, yet. where as Apple have over 500,000 apps compared to Androids 50,000, you can see why people still choose apple. But the windows phone 7 might change things.
My dad got one, and quite frankly it's amazing. The hub based interface is customisable, clean and just pretty amazing. This truly does deserve a high satisfaction rating.
This phone could bring Microsoft's own OS into play, meaning more competition, pushing all the other OS's to step up their game and bring out new, amazing idea's. Plus, because Nokia have teamed up with microsoft, this is going to push more Apps into Microsofts own OS, meaning that competition really is going to step up as soon as Microsoft really has stepped up its game.
Overall, even though this phone really is outstanding, its going to cause a war between OS designers. we're going to see more and more amazing idea's in the heat of this competition. so sit back, relax and enjoy.

Best DAW for a windows PC

I'm pretty into my editing and sequencing, so I decided to have a look at what DAW's are around for PC's. I personally own a copy of FL studios (well, I say own) anyway, so I'll tell you my personal choice at which DAW is best for a PC, enjoy.
So i was looking around, and I discovered Cakewalk SONAR. This looks like its primarily focusing on the final product, and not to effects or vst's.. or anything else really. CS has a function which makes it more compatible with surround sound (5.1 - 7.1) which would make it easier to show your finished product to bigger audiences.
one thing that lets down this DAW is the video limitations. video's can only be shown as thumbnails, unless you use software like firewire - then it can be shown on a monitor (just about) so, pretty good overall.
Or, there's FL studio (fruity loop). This is a pretty good daw, the way i like to put it, is it's like cubase - but which about 100x more VST's. plus, because it's so popular; so many have cracked it, meaning that it's pretty easy to get hold of a torrent.
FL studio is also pretty easy to use, it has a very simple workspace, everything is pretty tidy and a lot of the built in plug ins are really good.
overall, (not being biased, based on what i've looked at) I think that FL studio is probably the best, especially for beginners ( after you've got used to working on DAW's, you can make your own judgements) but it's got a very simple layout, best for VST's and you dont need to much common sense to know how to work it.
