![]() ![]() bSo, this mode can help you become a better chess player and help you figure out what works and what does not. This mode is kind of neat in that it when you make a move and if it is a bad one, you can replay the move. You also have a mode where you can have a quick one-off game. This mode is super, super and I mean super tough! If you are not a skilled chess player, I do not see you getting very far in this mode. You do this by defeating a series of opponents who get tougher and tougher as you progress. Here you are on a quest to become the Chess Grand Champion. The main mode on offer here is called The Kasparov Chess Club. Will You Be The Chess Master?Īs you would probably expect, Kasparov Chessmate is not jam-packed with game modes. The style of the game does fit what a serious game chess is, but it would have killed them to lighten things up a tad. You do not get Garry Kasparov involved and then have magical pixies or giant dragons as playable characters. ![]() There is nothing flashy about this game whatsoever! This is a very serious kind of game and as they got the greatest chess player of all time to be involved, I can see why the presentation is so serious. I think you could make the argument that this is one of the most boring looking games of all time. However, if you are new to this game then you will be lost here as it does not help you at all. My dad taught me to play chess when I was a kid so I have a basic understanding of what to do. One of the most absurd things about this game is that there is no tutorial! As they managed to get Garry Kasparov involved you would have thought that an in-depth tutorial on how to actually play chess would have been one of the first things Kasparov Chessmate offered you. The brains behind this game actually had world chess champion Garry Kasparov get involved with the AI in this game! Do You Know How To Play? What is worth knowing about this before you jump in is that this is a game that is not designed for the casual chess player. Even though it was released the better part of two decades ago, Kasparov Chessmate is still regarded by many as the best chess game. ![]() Box office performance FilmĪll Maze Runner films opened at number-one at the North American box-office during their opening weekend.

Maze Runner is a North American film trilogy, consisting of science-fiction dystopian action adventure films based on The Maze Runner novels by the North American author James Dashner. ![]() So instead of Standard and SRX (see the screenshot above) I would like it to say Standard, Keyboards, World and so on in the list so I can pick and choose, mix and match, and get completely lost in the wonderful world of sound design. ![]() What I’d like to see in an upcoming update is the ability to combine the JV-1080 or XV-5080 with any or all of the SRX expansions - just as you could in the hardware. Roland have released nine of the SRX expansion boards as eight separate plugins in now its own category Brass, Dance Trax ( Supreme Dance and Platinum Trax), Electric Piano, Keyboards (which is the Ultimate Keys board), Orchestra, Strings, Studio and World. The SR-JV80 came with 8MB ROM chips while the SRX came with a whoping (remember that this was almost 20 years ago) 64MB ROM per board. Both these boards add additional waveforms, patches, performances and rhythms (drum kits) to the synthesiser giving the user a plethora of options and combinations. SR-JV80 series is the predecessor to the revamped SRX board introduced in 2000 alongside the XV-88 keyboard and the XV-3080 and XV-5080 rack modules. I can still use my V-Synth GT to load samples, but it handles them differently from the XV-5080’s Partial mode.Īnother benefit of having the JV-2080 as hardware in my rack next to me is it’s ability to add up to 8 SR-JV80 boards. This was one of the features I was looking forward to in the software version and it’s the main reason I still want to own the hardware version of the XV-5080 even though I already have a fully expanded JV-2080 (including a Dojoe - a custom built memory card with the capacity equivalent to 8 simultaneous M-512E cards). While Tones are composed of two waveforms, Partials may contain up to four samples (Wave data). Roland have only cloned the Tone section of the Wave Generator page and skipped the Multi-Partial Patches. WAV and AIFF samples” as the original hardware version could. The software version of the XV-5080 can’t “load up to 128MB of Roland, Akai. Turning our heads towards the hardware unit again and comparing it with the software we’ll find some missing features. I guess General MIDI actually did die one day a long time ago after all. Not included in either software versions of the JV-1080 and the XV-5080 are the GM and GM2 banks. The number of presets have grown from 512 patches and 8 drum kits in the JV-1080 to 896 patches and 16 drum kits. The heritage is certainly and clearly there. Roland has done a fantastic job recreating the look and feel of the front panel (yes, I know a lot of buttons are missing and the card reader has been flipped and so on) and it can’t be mistaken for which synthesiser module they’re emulating. The first difference is, of course, the looks. To me the Cloud XV-5080 is merely just some (okay, a lot of) new presets but in a different plugin with an updated front panel compared to the Cloud JV-1080. I’ve also thrown in a joker and recorded my hardware JV-2080 module so you can hear the difference. ![]() This was the work horse in probably every studio around the world.Īt the bottom are a couple of audio files and I encourage you (just for fun, it’s not a competition) to comment on this post and tell me which is which - if you can tell them apart. When it was released back in year 2000, it had state of the art built-in effects and it had an amazing sound. The front panel had a memory card reader from which your own samples could be loaded. It could also be fitted with no less than four SRX expansion boards and an additional four SR-JV80 boards. It had twice the number of voices and over 900 presets. The XV-5080 came with all the waveforms from the JV-1080/JV-2080 and a selection of waveforms from the JD-990, the Super JD. I f you’re not familiar with the XV-5080 it’s the top-of-the-line rack module from Roland prior to the release of the Integra7. ![]() That post might be a good start before you continue. If you’re interested, I did a rather lengthy blog post about the Cloud JV-1080 compared to the original hardware versions of the JV-1080/2080 and the XV-3080/5080. So when the Roland Cloud team this Holiday Season released a VST, AU and AAX version of the XV-5080 my hope was set rather high. That one proved to be a lot more than just a software clone of the original JV-1080. Two years ago, Roland Virtual Sonics added the Cloud version of the Roland JV-1080 as a plugin to their Legendary catalogue.

![]() As a general rule, you have a 1/8192 chance to catch one. ![]() Shiny Pokemon are basically the same exact creatures but with a different color scheme, and they can be traded on par with legendaries. If you need stones, you can buy a limited selection from the Stone Emporium in Lumiose City. One big thing to remember is that Pokemon traded to you earn 1.5 times the normal experience rate, and international Pokemon earn 1.7 times. If it’s too high (level 55 for example), just save time and trade for that Pokemon. A tactic I use personally is to look up what level each Pokemon needs to evolve, and decide whether or not it’s worth leveling them up yourself. Print off a full list of Pokemon in each section of the Kalos ‘Dex (Central, Coastal, Mountain), and complete them one after another, checking off each one as you go. I know it can be overwhelming, so take it one bit at a time. One huge money-maker on the GTS is Haunter, who you can find right outside of the Pokemon League in a cave to the south. The key here is to catch exclusives over and over, to use as collateral to trade for most of the standard Pokemon you may not feel like catching or breeding. Use my trading guide to eventually complete your Kalos ‘Dex. Get all 454 Kalos Pokemon and look for shinies: Even if you don’t buy anything, window shopping can be fun! Not only does almost every shop carry new clothes, but the actual lineup of products changes daily. But after experimenting with new clothes in Lumiose in the post-game setting, I’m addicted. Not once did I purchase any new clothing, and I just went through the entire game with the default set. In my first playthrough of X & Y, I completely avoided the boutiques. If you’re too lazy to actually find anything, use the cab to systematically go through every location until you’ve exhausted the entire city! You can also find most of the rollerblade trick tutors in Lumiose. There are hidden hotel employee minigames, special hotspots, and a number of secrets, like obtaining Gardevoir’s Mega Stone from the former Pokemon League Champion.Īnything you do in Lumiose helps raise your “style rating” which allows you to access to most exclusive boutique in the game. Odds are you haven’t seen everything Lumiose has to offer. Here’s a list of things you can do after you’ve beaten the Elite Four. While it’s not nearly as strong as a few prior generational iterations, I wouldn’t necessarily call it “weak.”ĭespite the fact that the bank and transfer app is not with us yet (thus making it impossible to catch all 718 Pokemon), there’s still hundreds of creatures to catch, and a few extra excursions to go on. A common theme I’ve seen around the ‘net is that Pokemon X & Yhas a weak endgame. ![]()
![]() ![]() Ever notice how a gray sky may bring you down, while a sunny day may raise your spirits higher? Our moods can change based on just the color of the sky. Gann understood that our actions here on earth, and how we affect the patterns of the markets, are all connected mathematically with the universe around us. The most predominant gas that makes up our atmosphere is nitrogen, about 78%. Our atmosphere is made up of just the right ratios of oxygen (about 21%) and other gases some of these gases by themselves would be deadly. Travels at 66,600 miles an hour, just the right amount of speed to offset the gravitational pull of the sun and keep the earth at the proper distance from the sun. Rotates once every 24-hours, which gives us day and night. The earth is tilted 23.5 degrees in relation to the sun, which gives us change of seasons. We can look deeper into these laws of nature and become even more convinced of its influence on everything pertaining to life. If it were much closer or farther away, life would cease to exist here. This is because the earth is just the right distance from the sun, an average of 93,000,000 miles. The earth gets only a small fraction of the sun’s energy, just the right amount required to sustain life. Rocket expert, Wernher von Braun went a step further when he stated: “The natural laws of the universe are so precise that we have no difficulty building a spaceship to fly to the moon and can time the flight with the precision of a fraction of a second.”Īmong the many precise conditions vital to life on earth is the amount of light and heat received from the sun. The universe is so precisely organized that man can use the heavenly bodies as the basis for his timekeeping. The stars, why don’t they fall on us? How come the earth keeps coming back to the same spot each day, instead of drifting away from the sun and moon? Why are we not floating off this planet into space as the earth continues to spin? I’m sure these are the thoughts most young people have before they let life itself take over their daily thoughts and forget the wonders of the things around us.įormer astronaut John Glenn once noted “the orderliness of the whole universe about us,” and that the galaxies were “all traveling in prescribed orbits in relation to one another.” This was a perfect time to reflect about the world around us. When I was a small boy, there were times when I’d climb to the top of a backstop at the local baseball field, and just lie there staring at the stars at night. Faraday said: “There is nothing in the Universe but mathematical points of force.” There is no chance in nature, because mathematical principles of the highest order are at the foundation of all things. Everything in existence is based on exact proportion and perfect relation. “If we wish to avert failure in speculation, we must deal with causes. Taken from page 34 and 35 of his book, “How to Make Profits Trading in Commodities,” originally completed in 1942, under the subheading “Resistance Levels.” In this article, we will focus on a small fraction of his talents dealing with price pressure points. “Grace is given of God, but knowledge is bought in the market.” The Bothie of Toberna Vuolich (1848) pt. Gann made millions from trading or simply providing trading courses at $5,000 a pop (compared to today, that is quite a sum for the early part of this century.) He was without a doubt a gifted student of the markets, and was recognized as such, especially by those willing to pay such large amounts for his knowledge. Even if the rumors are true that he left out the real secrets to trading successfully, much can be gleaned from his writings. Regardless of which way you tend to lean about this man, much can be learned from his writings. There are some who feel he was the greatest market trader and analyst of all time, and those who believe the contrary. Just as there is night from day, we find two camps in relation to the teachings of William D. |
