Groundbreaking pieces of music (in your opinion)
JoeGBradford replied to Mr No Name's topic in The Coffee House
You beat me to mentioning Beethoven's 3rd! Probably the most significant piece of music in history - certainly in the orchestral genre One artist who I was astounded by was, the now sadly departed, Martyn Bennett. His album Grit is astonishing mixing sampling, synths and Scottish traditional music to great effect. http://www.martynbennett.com/Album_Grit.html -
Great song - speaking as someone from a northern town in England!

Enable write caching for faster drive speeds
JoeGBradford replied to bjornpdx's topic in Computer Systems
Thanks for the responses - I tend to do a full system image (including data drives) every few months and that is what takes ten hours (I should do it more often though if I did it would be wise for me to take the suggested approach of just copying the data drives rather than creating an image with all discs on it). I just thought it best to have an image of the whole system but I take the point that I am probably wasting time there! Critical data files I keep copies of on a separate large external HDD -
Good point! I assumed that was the case but it isn't obvious!

Thanks for this - very interesting! My full system backup to a 5Tb external Seagate HDD using the free version of Macrium reflect takes about 10 hours. I leave it on overnight and it is usually late morning when it finishes. So this would speed that up I assume. Reading around after seeing your post I see there seems to be risks involved if power is lost but that is an relatively unlikely event Do others use this for major backup and what has the experience been like? -
Will be interesting to see what comes out of this 'interval' Appears to include a 25% discount for members of the site https://thecrowhillcompany.com/end-of-season-one/

Thanks - sounds good! The site must be getting hammered as I can't link to it! As there have been no Sine Instruments for a while I thought they had come to the end of their freebies!

Good to hear that they have got rid of the 180 day limit! A while back I did plead with them to let me access sounds for free that I had forgotten to download and they did allow me fortunately but it was a bit of a pain!

Just to put the polish on 2025 (picture of Missi).

So sorry to hear of your devastating news. Stay strong - we'll be here for you if you need us -

Hope all goes well!

I paid £4 to get the Imperial Piano once I realised I couldn't get Guitar Hives which I really wanted. Didn't need another piano but seems a good one for the price!

Hoping for a swift recovery Wookie. Looking forward to seeing you back here when you are ready!
