- Ry Cooder uses iTunes to master his album
Ry Cooder, an accomplished guitarist, was having trouble with his latest solo effort 'My Name is Buddy.' Try as he might he just didn't like the way that the tracks (that's songs in musician speak) sounded. They were a bit over processed to his ears, however, when Ry burned a CD of his album from iTunes it sounded great.
What was going on?
One of the sound engineers pointed out that iTunes applies a 'Sound Enhancer' to each track, hence why they sounded so sweet. Ry then knew the answer, he just took the iTunes CD and make it the 'master' (that's the copy of the final album that all others are created from). See that, you too can create an awesome album with just a little talent, iTunes and a studio full of expensive equipment and highly trained professionals.
Sadly, the album isn't available on the iTunes Store (yet).

Filed under: Software Update, Security
Apple just released a new Security Update for QuickTime. Do you remember the recent worries about malicious URLs? The ones about opening QuickTime to arbitrary code execution when linking to streaming protocol (RTSP) URLs? This patch responds to the buffer overflow issue in QuickTime's RTSP URL handling. "A QTL file that triggers this issue has been published on the Month of Apple Bugs web site (MOAB-01-01-2007). This update addresses the issue by performing additional validation of RTSP URLs." Nice to note that Apple has been keeping track of MOAB and is responding to its concerns in a timely fashion.

http://www.tuaw.com/2007/01/23/new-security-update-whats-it-all-about/#comments - WWDC sessions available to all ADC members on iTunes
Filed under: iTS, WWDC, Developer
Back in October, Apple dropped DVDs as their distribution system of choice for WWDC sessions and presentation slides. The company moved all this content to iTunes - but only for Select and Premiere members of the ADC (Apple Developer Connection). Today I just received an ADC email titled "Watch Mac OS X State of the Union," re-announcing the availability of this content, but seemingly for all ADC members. This time around there is no talk of access only for specific members, so it sounds like anyone with a valid ADC account of one level or another can access this library of Mac OS X development goodness. We would post the URL, but it seems as though it is only accessible by logging into one's ADC account online.
[Update: According to readers, it sounds like only the general State of the Union sessions are offered, while access to "the juicy stuff" still requires a Leopard Early Starter Kit.]Permalink | Email this | CommentsКомментарии к сообщению:

Filed under: Software, Odds and ends
After trying it, I have to admit that I don't know quite what to make of this one. FlyPath is a new file browser and manger for OS X, and when I say browser I mean it; it is self-consciously not an attempt to remake the Finder. Rather, it allows you to browse your files without the fear (according to the developer) of accidentally doing something wrong. Its signature feature is "Fly-Over Mode," which allows you to "fly" through your folder hierarchies without actually clicking. I would have to say that this strikes me as a rather particular insistence on a certain way of interacting with your files, which as a Path Finder user I don't find particularly compelling, but which I suppose might meet the demands of a certain kind of purist. If anybody has tried and loves this thing, let me know why in the comments.
FlyPath is free for registered users of the GoodPage HTML/CSS editor or $13 on its own.
