Assault Rifles Assault rifles offer a balance between mobility and firepower, making them versatile for both long-range engagements and close-quarters combat. They’re particularly useful in modes like Control, where you need to manage mid-to-long-range fights while also dealing with enemies trying to push up to objectives. Recommended Mag Attachments: Extended Mags (45-60 rounds): The extra capacity helps sustain fire during key engagements, such as when you’re holding down lanes or contesting objectives. Fast Mags or Tactical Mags: Reloading quickly is crucial, especially when you’re constantly moving between positions. High-Capacity Mags (for certain rifles): Some assault rifles can benefit from higher round counts to maximize suppressive fire and take out multiple enemies advancing on objectives. Why? Extra rounds ensure you can handle multiple enemies without the constant need to reload. Fast reloads are essential for keeping up with the action during critical moments, especially when you’re outgunned or facing multiple enemies at once.

My 3D printed MechaGodzilla is doing a little dance with all the good energy from the weekend. He's the best office buddy! [image: 1692557274008-367417137_10160057294779608_9084177517093320464_n-resized.jpg]

In the realm of online multiplayer games, few titles manage to transport players to a universe as immersive and visually captivating as New World. At the heart of its appeal lies the game’s meticulously crafted aesthetics. Every landscape in Aeternum—from its lush, whispering forests to the crumbling ruins that hint at ancient secrets, and even to its eerie, magical sites—has been designed to draw you in, inviting you to explore every hidden nook and cranny. A World Where Every Detail Tells a Story One of the most striking features of New World is its commitment to visual storytelling. The environments are not mere backdrops for battles and quests; they are integral elements of the game’s narrative. Each area in Aeternum is carefully designed to evoke a sense of wonder and mystery. For instance, as you step into a dense, vibrant forest, the interplay of light filtering through the canopy creates a serene yet enigmatic atmosphere. The rustling leaves and distant bird calls add layers of auditory detail that enhance the realism and depth of the experience. The crumbling ruins scattered across the landscape serve as silent testaments to the passage of time and the mysteries of a bygone era. These remnants of ancient civilizations are more than just obstacles or settings for combat—they are invitations to piece together the lore of Aeternum. Every broken column, weathered stone, and overgrown pathway hints at stories of glory, loss, and secrets waiting to be unearthed. It’s this level of detail that transforms each exploration into a journey of discovery, where the environment itself challenges you to ask questions and imagine the history behind every structure. The Allure of Lush Forests and Mystical Sites Aeternum’s landscapes are a feast for the eyes. The game designers have taken great care to ensure that the natural environments not only look stunning but also contribute to the gameplay experience. When traversing lush forests, players are often greeted by a palette of greens and golds—a visual symphony that is both calming and invigorating. These forests are dotted with small clearings, hidden streams, and clusters of wildflowers that beckon players to pause and take in the beauty of nature. On the other hand, the eerie magical sites scattered throughout Aeternum create a dramatic contrast. These locations are characterized by their ethereal glow and otherworldly features—misty landscapes illuminated by mysterious light, surreal rock formations that defy conventional physics, and spectral remnants that evoke a sense of the supernatural. Such environments are crafted to spark the imagination, compelling players to delve deeper into the lore of magic and myth that permeates the world of New World.

Hi. I am thinking of getting the app (looks amazing btw - nice work) but have a couple of questions to see if it does what I am looking for please: 1- can it record loops with lengths not snapped to the grid/bars/beats of the host tempo? (I.e. like an audio loop pedal - you press it once to start recording (or press a key on a midi controller) and press it once more to stop recording and start looping) Can it record snapped to the bars and beats as well? 2- can it record parallel tracks with different track lengths? (Polyrhythms etc) 3- does it have midi learn function (with AUM as host for example)? I would like to use it for live midi looping with synths, and control it with foot pedals and such, hence the midi learn function. Thanks!!

MidiWrist Unleashed is a complete rewrite of MidiWrist as a standalone Apple Watch application that doesn't use the iPhone as a gateway for MIDI connections anymore. MidiWrist Unleashed is able to make direct Bluetooth LE connections to MIDI devices and has a full suite of config/editing tools included. MidiWrist Unleashed is rapidly becoming the most full-featured standalone WatchOS app I've seen. It feels really cool to be able to do so much just on your wrist. It supports multiple MIDI control presets with auto-reconnection to BLE devices, any number of panels per presets, knob/button panel, support for the digital crown, XY panel, motion panel, ... with full configuration of MIDI settings, name, layout, alt corner buttons. Next up is a transport control panel and then a stepper panel with one big control and up/down buttons. Finally, adding color selection for each panel and control, and then I should be close to release. [image: 1711398537191-433009729_10160411008734608_538875369241314573_n.jpg]

I have new versions of SendMIDI and ReceiveMIDI available with MPE Profile support. The intent of these versions of my tools is that people can focus on either the initiator or responder role for their product and leave the other part of the negotiation up to either SendMIDI or ReceiveMIDI. This should make it easier to bootstrap adding MPE Profile support. https://github.com/gbevin/SendMIDI https://github.com/gbevin/ReceiveMIDI SendMIDI allows simulating the role of an MPE Profile initiator, while ReceiveMIDI allows simulating the role of an MPE Profile responder (only on Linux/macOS due to virtual port creation) Here's an basic example of usage: Create a virtual MIDI port named profiletest and configure it to support manager channel 1 with 15 member channels as a responder: receivemidi mpp profiletest 1 15 Use profiletest both as the MIDI output and input port and request the MPE profile to be enabled as an initiator with manager channel 1 and with 6 member channels: sendmidi dev profiletest mpp profiletest 1 6 The relevant outputs could be: receivemidi mpp profiletest 1 15 Responder MUID 0x0d1212d6 waiting for MPE Profile negotiation on channel 1 MUID 0x03926473 : MPE Profile enabled with manager channel 1 and 6 member channels MUID 0x03926473 : MPE Profile details inquired for optional features sendmidi dev profiletest mpp profiletest 1 6 Initiator MUID 0x03926473 negotating MPE Profile with manager channel 1 and 6 member channels MUID 0x0d1212d6 : Discovered MUID 0x0d1212d6 : Requesting MPE Profile enablement with manager channel 1 and 6 member channels MUID 0x0d1212d6 : MPE Profile enabled with manager channel 1 and 6 member channels MUID 0x0d1212d6 : Inquiring MPE Profile details for optional features MUID 0x0d1212d6 : MPE Profile details received for optional features MUID 0x0d1212d6 channel response : not supported MUID 0x0d1212d6 pitch bend : supported MUID 0x0d1212d6 channel pressure : standard controller MUID 0x0d1212d6 3rd dimension : standard controller This is another possible example: Create a virtual MIDI port named profiletest and configure it to support any manager channel with up to 8 member channels as a responder, this also disables pitch bend as a supported feature and enables bipolar controllers for channel pressure and 3rd dimension: receivemidi mpp profiletest 0 8 mpb 0 mcp 2 m3d 2 Use profiletest both as the MIDI output and input port and request the MPE profile to be enabled as an initiator with manager channel 2 and with 10 member channels: sendmidi dev profiletest mpp profiletest 2 10 Then, use profiletest both as the MIDI output and input port and request the MPE profile to be enabled as an initiator with manager channel 12 and with 6 member channels: sendmidi dev profiletest mpp profiletest 12 6 The relevant outputs could be: receivemidi mpp profiletest 0 8 mpb 0 mcp 2 m3d 2 Responder MUID 0x04b33d6f waiting for MPE Profile negotiation on all channels MUID 0x00166e57 : MPE Profile enabled with manager channel 2 and 8 member channels MUID 0x00166e57 : MPE Profile details inquired for optional features MUID 0x001a9680 : MPE Profile disabled with manager channel 2 MUID 0x001a9680 : MPE Profile enabled with manager channel 12 and 4 member channels MUID 0x001a9680 : MPE Profile details inquired for optional features sendmidi dev profiletest mpp profiletest 2 10 Initiator MUID 0x00166e57 negotating MPE Profile with manager channel 2 and 10 member channels MUID 0x04b33d6f : Discovered MUID 0x04b33d6f : Requesting MPE Profile enablement with manager channel 2 and 10 member channels MUID 0x04b33d6f : MPE Profile enabled with manager channel 2 and 8 member channels MUID 0x04b33d6f : Inquiring MPE Profile details for optional features MUID 0x04b33d6f : MPE Profile details received for optional features MUID 0x04b33d6f channel response : not supported MUID 0x04b33d6f pitch bend : not supported MUID 0x04b33d6f channel pressure : alternate bipolar controller MUID 0x04b33d6f 3rd dimension : alternate bipolar controller sendmidi dev profiletest mpp profiletest 12 6 Initiator MUID 0x001a9680 negotating MPE Profile with manager channel 12 and 6 member channels MUID 0x04b33d6f : Discovered MUID 0x04b33d6f : Requesting MPE Profile enablement with manager channel 12 and 6 member channels MUID 0x04b33d6f : MPE Profile disabled with manager channel 2 MUID 0x04b33d6f : MPE Profile enabled with manager channel 12 and 4 member channels MUID 0x04b33d6f : Inquiring MPE Profile details for optional features MUID 0x04b33d6f : MPE Profile details received for optional features MUID 0x04b33d6f channel response : not supported MUID 0x04b33d6f pitch bend : not supported MUID 0x04b33d6f channel pressure : alternate bipolar controller MUID 0x04b33d6f 3rd dimension : alternate bipolar controller Full documentation can be found by typing sendmidi -h or receivemidi -h.

Path of Exile 2, the much-anticipated sequel to the 2013 original, continues to build on its reputation as one of the most intricate and engaging isometric dungeon crawlers in modern gaming. With a promise of deeper character customization and a reinvigorated endgame experience, this sequel is already generating buzz among fans and newcomers alike. The upcoming 0.2.0 update, slated for a late March 2025 release, is poised to deliver a host of changes that will significantly impact gameplay, balance, and strategic depth. This article delves into the exciting features announced so far—from revamped character classes and mysterious new Ascendancy options to unique items and sweeping enhancements to the endgame. A Legacy Reborn: The Evolution of Path of Exile Path of Exile 2 stands as a monumental evolution from its predecessor. At its core, the game is built on the same principles that have made the original a fan favorite: a dark, immersive world where every decision matters, and every character can be molded to fit a player’s unique vision. One of the standout features of Path of Exile 2 is its ambitious design plan involving 12 distinct character classes. Each class is further subdivided into three unique Ascendancy Classes, allowing for a staggering range of playstyles and customization. Although the full roster has yet to be unveiled, the early access version already showcases six exciting classes: Warrior, Monk, Mercenary, Sorceress, Witch, and Ranger. This diverse lineup ensures that players have a rich tapestry of options to explore and master as they navigate the treacherous realms of Wraeclast. Unveiling the 0.2.0 Update: What to Expect Grinding Gear Games, the developers behind the franchise, recently posted details about the 0.2.0 update on the official Path of Exile website. While many of the major changes remain shrouded in secrecy, a few tantalizing teasers have emerged. One of the most significant aspects of the update is a series of buffs targeting what is currently the strongest build archetype in the game. This move signals the developers’ commitment to balancing the gameplay experience, ensuring that no single strategy dominates and that all players have the opportunity to experiment with new tactics. In addition to the buffing of certain builds, the 0.2.0 patch introduces several new Ascendancy Classes. Ascendancy options have always played a critical role in defining the strategic potential of each character class. By adding fresh choices in this area, the update is expected to not only expand the depth of customization but also encourage a reevaluation of existing playstyles. The deliberate balancing act—enhancing popular builds while simultaneously opening up new avenues for exploration—demonstrates a keen awareness of community feedback and a proactive approach to game design.

This is a brain-dump tutorial of how to use the command-line on macOS, specifically for using my tools SendMIDI and ReceiveMIDI. IMPORTANT: Apple changed the default shell from bash to zsh. This video refers to the file .profile that needs to be edited. Instead of .profile, use .zprofile which is what zsh uses. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_o1kg0IbetY
