For guitar effect circuits having a low noise supply makes it sound better. A battery sounds better than a cheapo 9v wall adapter powered effect. Also at least in my experience when viewed on a scope the waveform from a battery powered circuit usually looks cleaner and less fuzzy. I just thought...
Hi
I'm looking to get my first oscilloscope. I'll mostly be measuring lowish frequency signals for now. I like building guitar effect boxes and a scope always helps me understand what's going on better. I also want it so when I get to electronics 2 lab (opamps) I can fully do the lab at home...
Is that typically the case? I had to make some NAND/NOR layouts in the VLSI course I'm in and for similar sized gates the NOR was a good bit faster. (like 150ps fall times for NOR and about 200-300ps for NAND). Just curious as I'm still learning.
edit: Nevermind. When you have a NOR you have...
I can't get into emulation too much, the inaccuracies drive me bonkers. I will admit that I use Dolphin to play Double Dash and occasionally Galaxy 2 (so I can use 360 pad). My original xbox has an xecuter 3 chip installed along with a 300GB HDD, it runs SNES and Genesis games very well...
Just curious, why would it matter?
Is it a matter of the strip not being able to handle the load of two computers, or does the second computer cause some kind of electrical fluctuation that can cause harm to other devices plugged into the strip?
To me it seems like if the strip is rated...
Funny to see this old thread pop up, thanks for the help from all who contributed.
That assignment was from the "introduction to engineering" course I took last year, apparently the professor only gave us that assignment to screw with us.
In January 2014 I will be starting the formal course on...
I have the same model and color Ibanez Artcore, wonderful guitar. I much prefer acoustic for playing jazz and swing though which is what I primarily play.
Some people forget what it's like to be a novice in an area. Instead of wasting energy criticizing the OP (for something that is honestly not a big deal) why not help him and get this thread solved?
Glad you were able solve part of the problem.
I'm not sure if you do any professional work on your home PC, but it absolutely makes a difference. Though I'm still a student, using autoCAD would have been immensely more productive on a high-res display. My classroom had 900p monitors (I think) and it was a constant battle for screen space...
I would recommend a gtx460 or a HD6870, HD6950 if you find it cheap. Though for what it's worth I have trouble telling the difference between my friend's 6950 machine and my backup rig with a 6870, though this was in borderlands 2 and other games that weren't necessarily heavily GPU bound.
My old q6600 at 3.0ghz plays borderlands 2 on max settings (no physx amd gpu) with 45+ fps...nice try.
OP going from 2.4ghz to 3.0ghz on my q6600 made a huge difference in reducing the CPU bottleneck
