The benefits are obvious: you can bring your 'outboard' on board as an integral part of your recording system you don't need any cables to hook it all up and it is all digital, much cheaper, much more flexible and more upgradable — all to the benefit of the user.
Also, you don't have the build up of hiss and grunge which you get with the equivalent analogue gear plus the open effects returns, open inputs, and so forth! Steinberg offer a 'budget' reverb and other effects including a spatialiser. The compressor reduces the dynamic range of signals that exceed a selected threshold by a specific amount.
The upward expander increases the gain of signals that are above the threshold, which is useful for adding dynamics to sounds that have been overcompressed or saturated on tape. The gate allows a signal above the selected threshold to pass through at unity gain, and shuts down the signal below the threshold completely — thus 'gating' out unwanted noise below this threshold. Finally, the peak limiter is used to prevent signal peaks from exceeding a chosen level, to prevent these signals from overloading amplifiers or recording devices.
There are three different mod delays — Short Delay up to 18ms, preset for chorusing , Slap Delay up to ms , and Medium Delay up to ms. All of these can be used to provide modulation for chorusing and flanging effects. A Tempo slider lets you set the desired tempo in bpm, and you can also set the desired number of 'beats' of delay using a set of buttons ranging from 16th notes to whole notes.
In addition, you get a 'Groove' slider to provide fine adjustment of the delay in percentages of a 16th note. This can be used to add a 'groove' by slightly offsetting the delay from the precise beat of the track. Digital audio's poorest distortion performance occurs at the lowest end of the dynamic range, where quantisation errors can occur, leading to distortion of the signal. Some Macintosh computers allow their CD drives or other internal or external peripherals to become available for use to the host computer.
Target Disk Mode is also helpful with high transfer speeds, data retrieval or when the display of one of the computer is not functioning. It is also a popular technique transferring data between two computers, and also for troubleshooting malfunctioning Macintoshes. By: Justin Stoltzfus Contributor, Reviewer. By: Satish Balakrishnan.

We all know that the is one wire to our house and one to the house of the person we want to call, but how is it possible that our lines and the lines of every other person living in our neighbourhood, all send information through only one common line, and furthermore, how is everyones information received simultaneously at the other end?
The answer lies in a simple concept called time division multiplexing. Although modern telecommunication networks use much faster and more efficient methods, time division multiplexing or TDM for short was an important communication technique in older days, and can still be used effectively for small networks.
This tutorial is going to take you through the main concept involved in TDM and also show you how you can implement it using hardware. Principle of TDM. As we can see in the above diagram, all bits are fed into a common multiplexor, after which they get transmitted on a single transmission line to a demultiplexor, which delivers the respective bits the recipients. The main idea here is that the multiplexor and demultiplexor are both timed at the sam time, i. Suppose there are equally spaced times t1,t2,t3,t4.
Then from time t1 up till time t2,the selectors of the mux and demux are given input, so the first bit is transmitted. Similarly between t2 and t3, the second bit is transmitted, and the third bit between t3 and t4. Hardware Implementation.
