  • The Behringer PODCAST & RECORDING
    PODCAST & RECORDING QUICK-START GUIDE Welcome to the Behringer PODCAST & RECORDING quick-start guide Thank you for choosing one of our podcast-capable recording products. This top-notch hardware bundle lets you creatively produce professional-sounding podcasts, voice-over sessions, narration, and music projects for online distribution. If you’re a vlogger, you’ll have a superb pack of equipment to dramatically enhance the audio quality of your videos compared to the built-in camera microphone, giving your broadcasts a more professional appeal. Move up to the next step in the evolution of broadcasting and free yourself from the limitations of conventional communication. Podcasting Basics Before you get started, it is important to understand some of the terminology and uses surrounding the emerging field of podcasting. Podcasting is a term derived from the combination of the words “iPod” and “broadcasting,” and is defined as the distribution of audio or video files, such as radio programs or music clips, over the Internet. This is accomplished by using one of two syndication techniques that allow users to access media on such portable media devices as smart phones, tablets, MP3 players, and laptop computers. RSS (Really Simple Syndication) and Atom are Web content syndication formats written in XML that provide either podcast content or summaries that link to content and additional file information. Podcast is a feed of audio or video files placed on the Internet for public access. Anyone can subscribe to the feed and download the media files. This allows you to collect programs from a wide range of sources for listening or viewing media content, either online or offline with your computer or an appropriate portable device.

  • Introduction to Linux
    Presentation to U3A - Linux Introduction 8 June 2019 – Terry Schuster - [email protected] What is Linux? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linux https://www.iotforall.com/linux-operating-system-iot-devices/ In simple terms, Linux is an operating system which was developed to be a home-built version of UNIX, one of the first operating systems which could be run on different brands of mainframe computers with quite different types of hardware. Linux has developed to the extent that it is the leading operating system on servers and other big iron systems such as mainframe computers, and the only OS used on TOP500 supercomputers (since November 2017, having gradually eliminated all competitors). It is used by around 2.3 percent of desktop computers. The Chromebook, which runs the Linux kernel-based Chrome OS, dominates the US K–12 education market. In the mid 2000’s, Linux was quickly seen as a good building block for smartphones, as it provided an out- of-the-box modern, full-featured Operating System with very good device driver support, and that was considered both scalable for the new generation of devices and had the added benefit of being royalty free. It is now becoming very common in IoT devices, such as smart watches/refrigerators, home controllers, etc. etc. BTW, Tux is a penguin character and the official brand character of the Linux kernel. Originally created as an entry to a Linux logo competition, Tux is the most commonly used icon for Linux, although different Linux distributions depict Tux in various styles. The character is used in many other Linux programs and as a general symbol of Linux.
