![]() My boys who were feeling frustrated and like they were horrible spellers are confident and competent spellers. Honestly, this has been such a major change in our spelling work this year. (I like to make them spell the word out loud to me to re-enforce the spelling orally, but you can spell it to them if that works better for your kids.) Your child makes corrections as needed. So, instead of just reading off a list of words, having the kids write them all and then going back to see if they got their words right, Sequential Spelling deeply emphasizes the need to do a single word at a time. The key is to understand the root first and make sure they know how it is spelled before adding more letters to it. Words can become quite large rather quickly, but it all makes sense and it’s easy to figure out. For example, the word at can become cat. From there you grow to scat, then scatter, then scattering. Words connect with other letters to make new words. This spelling program uses a building block approach to learning words. I knew we needed a different approach or I’d be destined to answering the “Mom, how do I spell….?” questions forever.Īfter much research, I landed on Sequential Spelling. There is no rhyme or reason – they are words you just have to know. The problem with using the Dolch list is that the words are all words that don’t follow phonetic patterns. ![]() Each week, the boys would work on their list through games, activities, and daily written “tests.” But as the words got harder, spelling time led to frustrated, confused children. ![]() I just printed out the Dolch sight words list and broke it down into groups of 10 words per week. Over the last few years, I thought I’d do spelling simply. We decided to give the program, Sequential Spelling a try. This year, we needed something different for spelling.

You can take a regular chord progression, add the capo and change the chord shapes. This can be really useful when working with different singers, as they may need the pitch of the song changed to match their respective vocal range.Ĭapos also offer up interesting uses when revoicing chords. ![]() For example, if you place a capo on the second fret of your guitar and play the chord shape that would ordinarily be an open E major, you’ll now be playing an F# major instead. Primarily a guitar capo is used for changing the key of your instrument. On a classical guitar, it comes down to the flat fretboard radius as we mentioned before, which requires a specific capo design to work properly. Because of the extra set of strings on a 12-string acoustic or electric, you'll need a higher tension to effectively clamp down the strings. The reason for this is obvious with ukuleles as they're much smaller, less so with the other two. There are, however, specific capos for Ukuleles, 12-string guitars, and classical guitars. A capo that fits on a regular acoustic guitar will most likely do the same job on an electric. Generally, capos are designed to fit as universally as possible, so you shouldn't need to buy a specific capo unless your neck or fretboard is exceptionally different from the norm. Most brands offer a range of options, so if you see a capo you like, there’ll probably be one designed to fit your guitar. Ultimately your first consideration when choosing one of the best capos should be to choose one that fits your guitar. Generally, capos can be divided into radiused capos for rounder fretboards flatter designs, typically for shreddy SuperStrats and classical guitars and all-in-ones – capos that either accommodate different radiuses (such as the G7th) or incorporate both a flat surface and a rounded one into their design. In a perfect world, every capo would apply even force across all six strings (and at every fret position), in order to prevent these problems. While each has its own benefits, suffice it to say that different fretboard designs represent a compromise in capo design.įix a rounded capo on a flat fretboard (or vice versa) and you’ll end up with unwanted string buzz (the noise made where strings aren’t fully clamped) and poor tuning (where strings are pushed sharp from over-tightening the capo). Some guitars (like certain vintage Fenders) feature rounded boards, whereas others are near flat. Radius refers to the curvature of this vital part of your guitar. You might be confused by all this talk of fretboard radiuses, but you needn't be. At first, it can seem a little confusing, but with our expert knowledge, you'll soon have the right one for your instrument. There are loads of different capos, all of which will work on different instruments. It’ll likely suit technically adept acoustic fingerstylists but we’d recommend it for any player seeking fresh inspiration. Still, if a capo can fuel new creative ideas, that alone makes it worth the price of entry. Also, unclamped strings can’t be fretted at the capo’d position which is a weird quirk above or below the capo is all gravy though. The SpiderCapo is suitable for any fretboard radius, but you’ll be adjusting pressure on each individual string – which is a relatively slow process. You can only capo one fret however, so more complex chordal tunings are not an option. You could, for instance, place a SpiderCapo at 2nd position, clamp the fretted strings of an open A chord and leave the others open – that’s open A tuning. Unclamped strings can’t easily be played at capo’d fretĪ creative take on a humble device, the SpiderCapo allows you to clamp each string individually, in turn offering up a world of alternate tunings – many that you might not have otherwise tried. At the end of this article, we have an in-depth buying advice section where you can learn more, or just keep scrolling to see our top picks. There are a lot of different guitars out there, and thus, a lot of different capos, so you’ll need to make sure you’re fully armed with the knowledge to get the best capo for your guitar. It also offers up some interesting possibilities when using open strings, as you can use the same open chord shapes with drastically different results, giving you chords that wouldn’t be possible to fret without the capo applied. The use of a capo can just be as simple as transposing an open chord progression to a different key, or as complicated as revoicing a chord progression for two guitars during recording. ![]() Your capo will also change the feel of your guitar strings, as it shortens the scale length when applied. Instead of changing the pitch down it changes it up – albeit only for the open strings, as your fretted notes remain the same. A capo is fastened or clamped across the strings of your guitar, essentially changing the tuning of your instrument in one fell swoop. ![]() It can also be used as an elevator to move up and down by alternating between the buttons for crouching (C on the PC) and for placing it down (X on the PC). Currently, the Tapejara is the only creature that can fly backwards as well as sideways. Moreover, the Tape is incredibly manoeuvrable. This is especially useful for taming hard-to-reach or aggressive creatures. A total of three players can be seated on its saddle with of the two passengers able to fire weapons. Something else worth mentioning for PvP players is the Tapejara. ![]() This tactic can be incredibly useful if you want to separate a high-level raptor from a whole group. To do this, grab the creature and then press the standard attack button (left mouse button on the PC). It can also-like the Ptera-attack smaller creatures, even while they are attacking the claws. A tame, weight-trained Argentavis can transport a fair amount of resources. If your options don’t include a Quetzal, you can use an Argentavis. In general, the Ptera is ideal for travelling long distances in a short amount of time. The role deals more damage if you hit a target, but also consumes more stamina. To do this, use the default key for ducking (on the PC, it should be C). In flight, the Pteranodon can make a forward roll. Some of the mounts have special abilities that you can make use of. It counteracts an impetuous impact on the island floor. All it takes is a single, well-placed shot with stunning ammunition to send a Dino into a coma. A player caught in a Flyer’s claws can still attack. If you want to use this same technique in a fight against other players, then be careful. With this technique, you can bring a wild Dino directly into your base and tame it there without disturbance. If you do it a second time, you release the creature or player back to freedom. To grab, press the alternative attack button (the right mouse button on the PC). This is useful if you want to stay directly above a Dino to grab it. Use the standard button to hang down (X on the PC). This is especially important with low-level creatures as they often have little endurance. When flying, always pay attention to the endurance indicator. If you press the button again, you go back into the flight mode. This can be particularly useful when “parking”. The creature then looks for a suitable point to land, and will switch to walking. If you want to land, press the standard key to jump (on the PC, it should be the space bar). Upon mounting, the Dino goes into flight mode and can be directed like all other rideable creatures. See Taming for more info about the taming process.As soon as you tame your winged steed, you have to learn how to use it. Previously, this Kibble was used to forcefully tame a Carbonemys on PC and Console however, it is still used to forcefully tame that Creature on ARK: Survival Evolved Mobile.Ĭurrently, this Kibble is used to forcefully tame Archaeopteryx, Diplocaulus, Gallimimus, Iguanodon, Megaloceros, Morellatops, Pachy, Raptor, and Triceratops and to passively tame Giant Bee, and Ichthyosaurus on PC and Console.įor other creatures, this Kibble will be valued less than regular Meat and Berries (only 66% of their effectiveness) and thus is not advised to be used for those. Alternatively, it can be crafted in the TEK Kibble Processor using any amount of Kibble equal to a value of 3. This Kibble is no longer craftable by any means on PC and Console however, it can still be crafted in the Cooking Pot or Industrial Cooker on ARK: Survival Evolved Mobile. Kibble has a higher taming effect than other food like Berries or Meat, meaning the taming meter will rise faster, while also dropping the Taming Effectiveness less, resulting in more extra levels when the taming process is finished. The main use of this Kibble is to feed it to a creature that you are taming. Kibble (Pteranodon Egg) is a Simple Kibble in ARK: Survival Evolved. perhaps by an incoming email a bit of scheduled disk cleanup or a screensaver suddenly kicking in. Yet another complication is the fact that sometimes the computer can be interrupted. There's plenty of CPU power to get the work done if we are woken-up in time but if the OS is slow to wake us up, then the desktop CPU usage can look very low, but you are still encountering glitches. A 256-sample buffersize is about 6ms, so if your computer sometimes waits 5ms after receiving the soundcard interrupt before it "wakes us up", we only have 1ms remaining to do our work. This explains why the selected buffersize is so critical to the DSP load. This is a very accurate indication of your computer's ability to process audio. If we have a 20ms buffer size, and it takes us 10ms to process the audio, then we are finished within 50% of the allotted time and that's what we display in the meter. Our DSP meter takes this timing into account. 2/3rds of the time was already wasted before Mixbus even had a chance to operate! ![]() But in the 64-sample buffersize, we only have 0.5ms left to work. In our 1024 example, this leaves us a heathy 24ms to work our DSP magic. Let's say that the computer always responds within 1ms that the soundcard is ready. ![]() Some OS's and drivers are better at this than others. This is complicated by the fact that it's the OS's job to "wake us up" and tell us that the soundcard has some data for us. Reduce the buffersize to 64, and the computer has to wake up every 1.5 milliseconds. In the case of a 1024 buffer size, this has to be done within (1024/44100) 25ms, or about 1/40th of a second. If we don't wake up in time, or we don't get finished in time, then you hear a "click" caused by the lack of audio (we call these xruns, short for over-run or under-run). When the soundcard passes us a buffer, Mixbus has to be alerted by your OS, process the audio buffer, and return it to the soundcard before the soundcard needs to play it out. This is a useful number to know if we are trying to finish a hard math problem, or if we are measuring battery usage.īut in digital audio, the timing is much more sensitive. This gives a general indication of how busy your CPU is. HOWEVER: even the most powerful cpu can have very poor realtime audio performance if it is not adequately "woken up" at regular intervals to service the incoming audio buffers from the soundcard.įirstly, you need to understand that the CPU meter on your computer averages the cpu usage over a very long period (perhaps one second). This means that if Mixbus is running smoothly, you won't accidentally overload your system if you enable all the channelstrip features while you are mixing.Ī modern i7-class processor has the capability to run 100s of tracks and lots of plugins in Mixbus. ![]() Note that, because of the way Mixbus works, it does not increase the cpu to enable all the EQs and compressors the DSP load for that processing is already pre-allocated when you run Mixbus. Nevertheless, an older 2GHz CPU should be able to handle dozens of tracks and several plugins, with reasonable settings. ![]() By default, Mixbus requires significantly more CPU resources than a typical DAW, because it is emulating the operation of an analog console. The first thing immediately noticeable is that Gigapixel AI tends to sharpen the final image more than Photoshop does. You’ll see several examples of the two here, and it feels “over sharpened” in my opinion, but that is largely subjective. Let’s compare the output of these two products. ![]() I then ran the photo through both Topaz Gigapixel AI and Adobe Photoshop’s “Preserve Details 2.0″ to produce two 24×48” images (2x), then saved each jpeg at maximum quality, which is what I would normally send to the printer. I renamed my image to “The Other Photographer” to avoid accidentally overwriting anything. If I did any minor resampling, I don’t recall, but I typically only resample before emitting a print jpeg, and so when working with the original Photoshop file, none of my images should ever be resampled. This print currently lives on my wall as a 12×24, which is probably the native resolution after cropping. I took this photo, “The Photographer” on a trip to Iceland in 2015, at the popular black sand dunes in Stokksnes overlooking the Vestrahorn mountain range, using a Nikon D810 and a Zeiss 35mm f/1.4 at f/5.6. Given how much Topaz products have been hyped lately, it seemed like a worthy endeavor to compare Gigapixel AI to Photoshop’s “Preserve Details 2.0” upscaler. ![]() ![]() I have several 2:1 cropped photos with a native-ish resolution of 12×24″, and wanted to see if Gigapixel was up to the task of handling a 24×48″ enlargement. I purchased Topaz Gigapixel AI as part of a bundle last year, but haven’t had much need to do enlargements until recently.
