If you play it like a guitar (which again, is not easy Vibraphone [829 Blocks] on a keyboard), it sounds pretty close. But it also sounds a lit Xylophone [101 Blocks] tle like a harpsichord. The mod wheel adds a nice chorus ef They sound like they should. Xylophone, though, is a little fect. weak, low in volume. If you want to throw some Steve Reich into your top 40 act, you'll probably need these sounds.

And this sound, though it's quite good, doesn't really which is probably just as well. sound that much like a strat. It sounds like an electric guitar, but not specifically like a strat. D I S K K B - 4 — C l a s s i c Strat Distortion [651 blocks] Clavichord [746 Blocks] Here's a great electric guitar sample! Again, I can't say it Celeste [451 Blocks] really sounds like a strat, but it sure sounds good. The open They sound fine — just like they're supposed to. Unfor patch [00] is a dirty sounding sample, but not too dirty, tunately, there's virtually no use of the patch select buttons (aftertouch adds a bit of vibrato). Using the pitch bend wheel here. (carefully), you can get some great simulations out of this. The other patches are also good, one detunes the guitar (using aftertouch), another is a very dirty sound almost like the D I S K O P - 1 — M a l l e t s I guitar sound on "Whole Lotta Love" and a chorused guitar. Marimba [347 Blocks] This sample really sings. And coming from a guitarist, that Glockenspiel [499 Blocks] means something.

One patch that stands out is the sound you can get DISK BR-1 — Flugel/Cornet with guitar when you mute the sting and pluck it. Flugel Horn [703 Blocks] A pretty nice sample of a flugelhorn. The patch buttons are Tele Metal [937 Blocks] good here, and the aftertouch adds just the right amount of Similar to the strat distortion sound, but slightly thinner. vibrato. Great patches here too!

There's no question that you could fool some of the people with this sample. All in all. Keel Sound has once again shown me they are serious about their samples. Although there are a few disks in D I S K E G - l — L e s P a u l this set I could live without, that's partially because of the Les Paul Clean [550 Blocks] kind of music and sounds I enjoy listening to. All in all you Les Paul Overdrive [916] really can't go wrong with ANY of these disks. _ I love the Les Paul guitar sound, but unfortunately this one falls short. This sounds like a guitar, but it doesn't jump out at you the way a Les Paul does.

  • Eric Redmond, Jim R. Wilson — «Seven Databases in Seven Weeks
    What Readers Are Saying About Seven Databases in Seven Weeks The flow is perfect. On Friday, you’ll be up and running with a new database. On Saturday, you’ll see what it’s like under daily use. By Sunday, you’ll have learned a few tricks that might even surprise the experts! And next week, you’ll vault to another database and have fun all over again. ➤ Ian Dees Coauthor, Using JRuby Provides a great overview of several key databases that will multiply your data modeling options and skills. Read if you want database envy seven times in a row. ➤ Sean Copenhaver Lead Code Commodore, backgroundchecks.com This is by far the best substantive overview of modern databases. Unlike the host of tutorials, blog posts, and documentation I have read, this book taught me why I would want to use each type of database and the ways in which I can use them in a way that made me easily understand and retain the information. It was a pleasure to read. ➤ Loren Sands-Ramshaw Software Engineer, U.S. Department of Defense This is one of the best CouchDB introductions I have seen. ➤ Jan Lehnardt Apache CouchDB Developer and Author Seven Databases in Seven Weeks is an excellent introduction to all aspects of modern database design and implementation. Even spending a day in each chapter will broaden understanding at all skill levels, from novice to expert— there’s something there for everyone. ➤ Jerry Sievert Director of Engineering, Daily Insight Group In an ideal world, the book cover would have been big enough to call this book “Everything you never thought you wanted to know about databases that you can’t possibly live without.” To be fair, Seven Databases in Seven Weeks will probably sell better.
