Description

FreeCAD is a general purpose Open Source 3D CAD/MCAD/CAx/CAE/PLM modeler, aimed directly at mechanical engineering and product design but also fits a wider range of uses in engineering, such as architecture or other engineering specialties. It is a feature-based parametric modeler with a modular software architecture which makes it easy to provide additional functionality without modifying the core system.

FreeCAD is based on OpenCasCade, a powerful geometry kernel, features an Open Inventor-compliant 3D scene representation model provided by the Coin 3D library, and a broad Python API. The interface is built with Qt. FreeCAD runs exactly the same way on Windows, Mac OSX and Linux platforms

Ahh Reason 5 has been released and here is the demo, but let me warn you it’s huge.  At 600MB this file could take some time to download. So start the download and then take some time to  read a quick overview of the new goodies that have been packed into Reason 5.
So what’s new? Well propellerhead has added some nice new features you as a music producer or sound designer may be interested in.

The Kong Drum Designer is king of the beats as far as we are concerned This software device can be used to replace all those bulky external MPC and Boss drum machines, and if you are still a hands on type of person (as i am) then you will most likely want to use an external midi drum machine of some sort to control the kong platform. Full featured, groovy, and very surreal the Kong Drum Designer comes with tons of presets, but more importantly lets you customize each or create your own from scratch.

DR OctoRex, that almost sounds like a villain from some Marvel Comic Book doesn’t it?
Its the original Dr Rex on steroids.  It loads / holds 8 loops, thus the name Dr OctoRex Player.
Makes sense now right?

All in all it was a nice upgrade the the rex player.

This may have been in the last version but i missed it. In this version you can actually create an fx or sound device.
No more guessing and tweaking. Just choose either effect, or instrument by name and Reason 5 will select the proper device,  plugin, and setting to achieve the desired sound.

I’ve been using this new feature quite a bit. It’s great to get quality setting in just a few clicks without being limited to patches and trying to guess which device to use.

Harmony Hollow’s Cool Timer is a free 99-hour timer with countdown and  stopwatch functions plus the ability to play any MP3, WAV, or MIDI sound file as  an alarm as well as display a scrolling message to remind you why you set the  timer in the first place.

Cool Timer’s small interface is skinned in garishly bright colors that  certainly help make it visible on the desktop, but it’s easy to change the  program’s skin color as well as the colors of the digits and buttons, or to  select default Windows colors for maximum visual integration. Cool Timer  displays hours, minutes, and seconds to two digits. The interface presents a  large Start button and six smaller buttons labeled Options, Reset, Presets,  Tray, Help, and About.

The Options page let us select and test an alarm sound from a drop-down list  that included the default alarm, an old-time car horn, or we could browse to our  own file; we could also set the alarm to loop or play once. There is a text  field for messages that scroll in a pop-up window when the alarm is triggered.  Again, this handy extra can remind you why you set the timer in the first place,  which might be entirely too easy to forget if you set it to count down the full  99 hours. We could also set “always on top” and window size choices. The program  offers Countdown, Wake, and Stopwatch Modes. We selected Countdown, entered a  message, and set our interval. Cool Timer counted down the seconds, sounded the  alarm, and displayed our message on time. The Stopwatch mode only offers  1-second intervals, but it’s more than adequate for the kitchen or other general  uses. Wake mode serves as an alarm clock. The Presets button let us add and load  preconfigured timer settings so there’s no need to manually re-enter them each  time.

Cool Timer’s fully searchable Help file did a fine job of explaining the  program’s surprisingly flexible options and features. We’d like the ability to  select custom colors via the usual Windows color picker since the program only  offers six options. Beyond that, it’s hard to complain. If you’re looking for a  versatile free timer, here you go.
