These features run independently of noise reduction. NOTE: However, I discovered later that noise reduction does not have to be on for: (You can also turn on noise reduction in the SoundSoap window.) To turn on noise reduction, click the Power button in the lower bar of the Media Player window, then click the Play icon. In this example, I’m cleaning up a file with severe hum, caused by microphone cables running too close to power cables. I have a lot of problem files that I’ve accumulated over the years, so let’s see how SoundSoap handles them.įirst, drag either an audio or video file into the Media Player window. There are two windows in SoundSoap: the Media Player window, which is used for dragging and dropping files that need to be cleaned up.Īnd the SoundSoap window, which contains the controls necessary to clean up your audio. My only complaint is that the text is too small. NOTE: The User Guide is well-written in a personable tone. After skimming the first seven chapters, I decided to plunge boldly forward and start using the software. I found installation to be simple, obvious and quick.Īt the Welcome screen, I clicked the Quick Start button which took me to an 11-chapter web-based user guide. If you downloaded it from the Soundness website, you’ll need to enter an activation code and register the product, which is done from within SoundSoap. If you downloaded this from the Mac App Store, it is activated and ready to go. SoundSoap describes itself as “Affordable Audio Cleaning for Everyone.” In this review, I looked at the stand-alone application, though plug-ins exist for all popular video and audio editing applications, as mentioned above.ĭownloading and installing the software was as simple as any other app from the Mac App Store.Īfter opening it from my Applications folder, this screen appeared.

SoundSoap is easy to use, reasonably priced and allows everyone with a good ear to solve audio problems quickly without forcing them to understand how all the magic works.Īfter this review was published, Steve Berkley, from Soundness, sent the following note: While many of these tools are available in high-end audio systems (think Audition or ProTools), the approach that SoundSoap takes makes these techniques available to a much broader audience. SoundSoap lives up to its promise of simplifying the process of cleaning-up audio. ![]() NOTE: Titles formerly published by Bias include: Peak Pro XT, Peak Pro, Peak LE, Master Perfection Suite, SoundSoap, and SoundSoap Pro. Soundness also maintains the existing BIAS product licenses and provides limited support for existing BIAS customer licenses.” However, according to the Soundness website: “Soundness does not have any announced plans to develop or publish any other software titles previously from BIAS. Soundness took over the technology previously published by Bias as well as developing new technology for themselves. However, BIAS ceased operations in June, 2012. Soundsoap was originally developed by Bias, Inc. ![]() I’ve known about SoundSoap for years and I am always interested in cool software that fixes problems, so I told him “Yes,” and he sent me a link. It may be of great interest to your followers.” It works as a standalone application or inside popular media editing software like Final Cut Pro X, Premiere CC, Audition, ProTools, Logic, GarageBand, etc. “Larry,” he wrote, “would you be interested in reviewing Sound Soap? This is an easy-to-use software solution for reducing or eliminating audio noise problems, including clicks, crackles, unwanted hiss, room noise, rumble, electrical hum, clipping, low volume, and other noise problems. In fact, I had just finished presenting a webinar on Adobe Audition when Steve Berkley over at Soundness sent me an email. ![]() I’ve been thinking a lot about audio recently. ![]() If the effect requires a saving throw, the DC equals 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Constitution modifier. When you enter your rage, roll on the Wild Magic table to determine the magical effect produced. The magical energy roiling inside you sometimes erupts from you. Thankfully, this is a support feature rather than the subclass’s core ability, so it can afford to be on the weaker side. You can use this feature a number of times equal to your proficiency bonus, and you regain all expended uses when you finish a long rest.Īn off-brand Detect Magic spell that lasts a single round instead of 10 minutes and can be used while raging isn’t something I’m particularly excited about. ![]() When you sense a spell, you learn which school of magic it belongs to. Until the end of your next turn, you know the location of any spell or magic item within 60 feet of you that isn’t behind total cover. Let’s find out what this newest Path of Wild Magic subclass has in store for us, starting at level 3.Īs an action, you can open your awareness to the presence of concentrated magic. ![]() The UA version of this barbarian subclass also had the dubious distinction of breaking the game by granting everyone in the party infinite spell slots and twenty temporary hitpoints. I’m hoping that they share little else, as the Wild Magic sorcerer is awful. As the name suggests, this barbarian shares some design space with the Wild Magic sorcerer. Last time, we looked at the Path of the Beast, and now let’s look at the second of the barbarian subclasses found in Tasha’s Cauldron of Everything: Path of Wild Magic. ![]() ![]() “We just gave him the ball every time the game was tied or we had a small lead and he converted every one of them,” Zirelli said. The result? Five saves over 13 innings in which he didn’t allow a walk and struck out 16. It’s no surprise the PUF Caps trusted him to get the last three outs with a three-pitch repertoire - high 80s, low 90s fastball, plus a cutter and slider. “All that good stuff.”ĭieter joined the PUF Caps with quite a résumé, which included 10 shutout innings for the gold-medal winning 18U USA National Team last September. “These guys are going to Stanford for baseball reasons, but also they’re such well-rounded kids, awesome teammates, fun to be around, intelligent, hard-working, respectful,” said PUF Caps founder and head coach Mike Zirelli, who’s already looking forward to the next summer’s batch of Cardinal. and last, but not least, Alexander Williams, a 6-3, 205-pound right-hander out of Castro Valley who assumed the role of ace this summer.Cody Jensen, a 6-3, 190-pound right-hander out of Roseville who turned into the No.Grant Burton, a 6-2, 190-pound outfielder out of San Juan Capistrano with a relentless work ethic.the aforementioned Dieter, a 6-foot, 175-pound shortstop and closer for the PUF Caps.VA VA/DC Player Of The Week: Week 3 See who is the Week 3 Player Of The Week.VA Mid-Atlantic N2K Top Uncommitted Spring Follows: 2024 Middle Infielders See ten of the best middle infielders remaining in the 2024 class.VA Commonwealth Classic All-Tournament 1st Team Which ten players made 1st Team All-Tournament Team?.DRAFT HQ Draft Central 2023 MLB Draft: Rising College Hitter Buzz Nine rising college hitters eligible for this year's MLB Draft.PBR Plus Hunter Martin Announced as New Tennessee Scouting Director.DRAFT HQ Blast from the Past: Hayden Christiansen, 2022 Now a freshman at Xavier, Christiansen is off to a flying start.VA Commonwealth Classic Day 1 Recap & Quick Hits See video, scout notes, and recaps from each of the four games on Saturday.PBR Plus JUCO Wire PBR JUCO: NJCAA D2 Top 25 Rankings Update Undefeated LSU Eunice holds down the top spot in our latest NJCAA Div.At the plate Rizzo is a contact bat, level path swing, and the stance gets narrow and slightly upright at finish.

He played second base the majority of his time on defense. ![]() #DeepRunTourney #PBRIsThere /szAP3jgFpyĬameron Rizzo SS / 2B / Deep Run, VA / 2023 This one a RBI single from left side.Ĩ-6 St Chris leads after 6. #PBRIsThere #DeepRunTourney /N3D6MXtDDWĭeep Run fighting back in this one. Switch hitter w/ barrel skills from both sides. #MidAtlStateGames standout and recent commit Josiah Seguin with a 2 out double for Deep Run in B1. The William & Mary commit continues to show his feel for the barrel from both sides of the plate and was the most consistent offensive threat for the Wildcats throughout their tournament play. During his time at short he displayed some big arm strength, the ability to come forward well, and throw on the run with some carry. Seguin showcased his talents at shortstop during the tournament. The changeup had solid late fade at 74 mph and the breaking ball had bigger shape sitting 69-70 mph. The fastball was 82-85 during the first two innings of work and showed feel for two secondary pitches. Works from a higher three-quarter arm slot. Longer arm action with above average arm speed.

It’s kinda like Minecraft in that sense if we’re being honest. In Valheim, the sky’s the limit when it comes to bases players can create. ![]() When playing on multiplayer, having a forward base near a boss is useful to have an area to restock and then get back into fighting the boss in question. Thus, it’s a good idea to have a place to go to just relax for a bit and to do maintenance on weapons and armor. Valheim is a pretty unforgiving place, and danger is always around at every turn. However, the biggest reason why building a house in Valheim’s important is because of safety. After all, the best Valheim Builds are the ones that take some time to create, and they can get pretty elaborate once the materials are available in ample amount. Well, we already talked about one of the biggest reasons why building a base in Valheim is important: Bragging Rights. This is especially important when a stone is used as a building material, as having even the slightest incline in the middle of a stone build will immediately cause the stone to crumble and collapse. However, there’s one fundamental rule when building in Valheim: make sure the area the build is on is as flat as possible. Do make sure that you have ample defense though.īecause even if enemies can’t spawn in the area around a base due to Workbenches (We’ll talk about that later) they can still destroy your base. In addition to this, the game’s spawn area is also an option, as players can use the spawn area as a way to fast travel. Usually though, staying near a river or the sea is a good idea, as water is an easy source of food and other necessary materials. So long as you can plop a Workbench in an area, you’re pretty much good to go. If we’re being honest, practically anywhere is the best place to build in Valheim. Valheim buildings can get pretty big too, with a maximum build height of around 36 meters, which needs iron poles to do so. ![]() And lastly, the stone is used to create paved roads, arches, and sturdy walls. Metals can be gained from various ores or even scrap piles and require a Smelter to create ingots. ![]() Getting these materials is usually pretty easy: wood is found everywhere and can be harvested with a good ax. These are the 3 materials that are going to be used on a lot of Valheim building ideas: Wood for the first initial builds, metals for walls, and finally, good sturdy stone. To use metal, players need to have a Forge, and to use Stone, they need Stonecutters. Once players have both of these things, they have a 20-meter area to create their dream Valheim base with their unique design. For example, to use wood as a material to build a base, players require both a hammer and a Workbench. ![]() Hydreigon still wins if it runs any other set or carries Earthquake or Head Smash as coverage, but this advice lets Entei win against the one set it has a chance of beating. Its perfect accuracy, lack of recoil, and priority let Entei 4HKO Choice Scarf Hydreigon without being 3HKOed by Dark Pulse. The remaining EVs are invested in attack for the best rolls against bulky Zeraora, Naganadel, Togekiss, and many other Pokemon.Īssault Vest Entei is generally very straightforward to use, but a few complicated matchups merit further explanation.Īgainst Hydreigon, Assault Vest Entei should click Extreme Speed four times, despite the move dealing less damage than Sacred Fire (accounting for burns) or Stone Edge. The HP and Defense allow Entei to tank a hit from Jolly Choice Scarf Darmanitan-Galar, and the speed lets it outspeed Adamant Darmanitan-Galar. This set runs Inner Focus over Pressure to soldify the Togekiss matchup and negate Assault Vest Arcanine's Intimidate. Eruption helps against various Avalugg sets, setup Registeel, and Aromatisse, while Stone Edge beats Kee Berry Volcarona without forcing Entei to rely on crits and additionally gives a better matchup against Rotom-Heat, Incineroar, and opposing Assault Vest entei. For the last move, both Stone Edge and Eruption have their unique strengths. Extreme Speed is useful in dealing with Custap Berry users like Porygon-Z and Galarian Moltres, as well as dealing additional chip against faster targets like Zarude and Life Orb Zapdos. ![]() ![]() Bulldoze serves as Ground-type coverage against the likes of Heatran and Arcanine, while allowing Entei to outspeed faster threats like Naganadel and Zeraora. Sacred Fire serves as a primary STAB option that threatens burns against Pokemon such as Aggron and Weakness Policy Metagross. Using its versatile movepool and the special bulk provided by an Assault Vest, this Entei set can lure in various faster Pokemon, like Naganadel, Zeraora, Choice Scarf Cresselia, and Choice Scarf Togekiss. Lastly, it finds itself unable to hurt Rest stallers like Sap Sipper Azumarill and Corsola-Galar. Entei is similarly shut down by Taunt users that don't fear Sacred Fire, like Tapu Fini, Heatran, and Kommo-O. It can also find itself lured in by Choice Scarf users like Volcanion and Kyurem. This play is relatively safe even if the opponent ended up using a powerful move anyway, though overuse of it will result in Entei failing to stall out the dangerous moves before its HP runs out.Įntei's reliance on outspeeding its opponent leaves it vulnerable to fast attackers like Dragapult, Nihilego, and Naganadel, and causes its matchup against Zeraora to come down to Sacred Fire RNG. If Entei predicts those pokemon using an ineffective move on a predicted Protect, it can instead use Substitute to absorb the hit. Nonchoiced pokemon might succumb to the same strategy if only a few of their moves can break Entei's substitute, as is the case with some Primarina or Goodra sets, but often require prediction. Against choiced pokemon that click a move with 24 PP or less, Entei can safely alternate Protect and Substitute to stall them out. However, it should not do so against faster Encore users like Zarude, which can lock it into the move, or setup pokemon like Tapu Lele, which might get free stat boosts out of this. In many matchups, Entei is best off using Protect turn 1 to scout the opponent's move choice. Speed is maximized to tie other base 100s like opposing Entei and Galarian Zapdos. The HP and Defense EVs allow Entei to tank an Earthquake from Jolly Choice Scarf Galarian Darmanitan while retaining as much special bulk as possible for purposes like tanking Primarina's Moonblast without breaking a Substitute and improving reliability against Shadow Ball Spectrier. Toxic stalls out many slower pokemon that don't threaten Entei offensively, like Iron Defense Avalugg, stall Kyurem, and Chansey, and can be followed up on with Protect and Substitute stall to ensure its target succumbs to the accumulated damage. It is used over Flare Blitz for its burn chance, which improves Entei's odds versus pokemon like Zarude, Urshifu-S, and Galarian Zapdos. Sacred Fire is Entei's sole attacking move, preventing it from being Taunt bait for the likes of Tapu Lele and Rillaboom and allowing it to defeat Ferrothorn and Celesteela. The combination of Substitute, Protect, Pressure, and Leftovers allow Entei to stall out choiced threats like Choice Specs Necrozma, Choice Band Avalugg, and Choice Band Landorus-Therian. Entei cements an unique niche in the 1v1 metagame with its excellent speed tier, solid all-around bulk, and reliable matchups against top-tier pokemon like Celesteela, Necrozma, and Sylveon. ![]() Thankfully the draug is also a solitary creature, and is never seen with other drauger. It is said that the chilling shriek of the draug can be heard over both thunder and the crashing of waves. The draug does not talk, but only hisses and screams. If sufficient time has passed, he will start more closely resembling a skeleton, until it eventually dies a second death. His body may be bloated and covered in seaweed, kelp, and algae, with fish or other ocean creatures having taken up residence in his belly. The draug is a hideous creature, with the water and time having had their ways with his remains. While the storm will often be sufficient, draugen is not above actively sabotaging boats or pulling sailors who've been washed overboard further down to ensure that they will drown. Seeing one while at sea is considered a bad omen, and it means someone on the ship will die, or even that the entire vessel will capsize. The draug is most often seen during storms, sailing on whatever remains of its ship (which may be nothing but a single plank), spreading fear among other seamen unfortunate enough to cross its path. Drauger are remnants of those who have died at sea without a proper funeral, who have come back to haunt the living out of hate and jealousy. The sea is dangerous and unforgiving, and many have fallen victim to its wet embrace. Without further ado, we would like to present you to this month's vette: In these installments we will introduce you to a different creature (or vette) from Scandinavian folklore every month, as well as giving you an artist's interpretation of said creature. Vette (plural: vetter) is an archaic Norwegian word which serves as catch-all term for supernatural beings. Draugar are also noted as being able to drive living people insane.Welcome to the eight installment of Vette of the Month! This is a feature which will be published monthly up until NordicFuzzCon 2015, where our theme is Scandinavian Folklore: the Enchanted Forest. Thorolf, for example, caused birds that flew over his bowl barrow to drop dead. Animals feeding near the grave of a draugr may be driven mad by the creature’s influence. In folklore, draugar slay their victims through various methods including crushing them with their enlarged forms, devouring their flesh, devouring them whole in their enlarged forms, indirectly killing them by driving them mad, and by drinking their blood. They are also noted for the ability to rise from the grave as wisps of smoke and “swim” through solid rock, which would be useful as a means of exiting their graves. Thorolf of Eyrbyggja saga was “uncorrupted, and with an ugly look about him… swollen to the size of an ox,” and his body was so heavy that it could not be raised without levers. The draugr’s ability to increase its size also increased its weight, and the body of the draugr was described as being extremely heavy. They exist either to guard their treasure, wreak havoc on living beings, or torment those who had wronged them in life. “The appearance of a draugr was that of a dead body: swollen, blackened and generally hideous to look at.” They are undead figures from Norse and Icelandic mythology that appear to retain some semblance of intelligence. Older literature makes clear distinctions between sea-draugar and land-draugar.ĭraugar possess superhuman strength, can increase their size at will, and carry the unmistakable stench of decay. They are animated corpses - unlike ghosts they have a corporeal body with similar physical abilities as in life. Draugar live in their graves, often guarding treasure buried with them in their burial mound. ![]() He emerges covered in seaweed to drown sailors ![]() The Draugen is the ghost of a man who died at sea. |
