![]() There are some really useful supporting features. Excitingly so, I thought, and yet still musically persuasive and inspiring, as opposed to weird or ugly. However, with morphing you’re messing about apparently much deeper in the mathematical engine room, and the results can end up far removed from any of the starting‑point ingredients. Tweaks of voicing or design parameters for individual instrument’s could already yield interesting distortions of them. And if that weren’t enough, you can add up to eight ingredients in a morph, for really strange, genetically scrambled hybrids with lots of mothers and fathers.Īside from being fundamentally a very intuitive way of deriving new sounds, morphs must surely be one of the most creatively fruitful. Everything is up for grabs: Wurlitzer/xylophone clashes, or tubular bell/virginal mash‑ups. Strange and wonderful chimeras would emerge: pianos with bizarre overtone structures or muted decay phases. I liked taking one of the pristine grands, for example, and morphing it with a rough, inharmonic Hand Pan or Steel Drum. ![]() Morphing between presets then proves to be a fascinating thing. The user interface takes on styling that’s appropriate to the most dominant ‘ingredient’. Here, a bizarre mix of grand piano, hand pan, and Hohner Electra‑Piano. The new morphing feature is like some kind of sonic DNA splicing, letting you create entirely new instruments by melding together existing ones, in different proportions. It’s not especially pretty but it could hardly be quicker or more intuitive. There will also be a vertical crossfader between the slots, which acts as a macro for the slot faders, and determines the relative dominance of each preset in the morph. Working in a dedicated (and detachable) panel you load presets for any of your instruments into slots that have accompanying mute and solo buttons, and which have a horizontal travel fader that controls the intensity of that ‘ingredient’ (Modartt’s terminology, suitably culinary perhaps). I was excited to try the new morphing features in the Pro version I had on test, and I must say they did not disappoint: they enable a new kind of sound design. ‘Double polarisation’ takes account of string vibrations that can emanate in any direction into the soundboard, and is said to provide more complexity, a three‑dimensional character, and supports acoustic piano bass notes that can sustain as long as a couple of minutes.Īudio titled Capri At Dawn - Niclas Fogwall Morph The Cat ![]() Perhaps just as important, though, is yet another refinement of the underlying modelling engine, which promises to improve the sound of the entire existing instrument line‑up. The real thing would cost you over $200,000 to buy new. That’s an update of the already no‑expense‑spared 8’11” model D, and it adds motorised‑key replay facilities. The second headline addition is a new piano, a brand spanking American Steinway Model D ‘SPIRIO|r’. Layering is a simpler and more familiar concept, but can make for a different kind of sophistication. ![]() Morphs allow you to create hybrid instruments that don’t exist in reality by blending aspects of two or more donors. The first is a morphing and layering engine. This latest version, Pianoteq 7, adds two new features. That makes it computationally intensive, potentially, but also laughably small in its installation footprint on your computer: still only around the 50MB mark (which by my calculations makes it about 0.0007 the size of something like Synthogy’s Ivory II) and requiring only 256MB RAM. In case you haven’t heard of it already, it’s a virtual instrument specialising in acoustic and electric pianos, mallet instruments, harps and harpsichords that’s based on principles of acoustic modelling, as opposed to sample replay. ![]() It’s been fascinating to follow the progress of Pianoteq, by French company Modartt, since its debut in 2006. Pianoteq 7 introduces new morphing features and an even more realistic modelling engine. Users of previous versions will feel right at home: all the important changes are under the largely unchanged surface. Pianoteq 7 loaded up with its new New York Steinway D. ![]()

![]() ![]() “As long as we’re painting within those lines and not egregiously contradicting something we don’t have the rights to, there’s a lot of leeway and room to dramatize and tell some of the best stories that ever came up with.” “There’s a version of everything we need for the Second Age in the books we have the rights to,” McKay says. We do not have the rights to The Silmarillion, Unfinished Tales, The History of Middle-earth, or any of those other books.” That takes a huge chunk of lore off the table and has left Tolkien fans wondering how this duo plans to tell a Second Age story without access to those materials. So what did Amazon buy? “We have the rights solely to The Fellowship of the Ring, The Two Towers, The Return of the King, the appendices, and The Hobbit,” Payne says. We have a group of actual wizards that work on the show and they came up with a huge bag of tricks in which we are constantly able to keep the audience guessing.” Payne promises they will be using “every single trick in the book-old school, new school, everything-in a way that we are told no one has attempted.” Some of the stranger monsters may be digital confections, but when orc-like baddies attack The Rings of Power heroes, it’s guys in suits, not piles of pixels. Who is going to get to Mount Doom first? So it will be down to the millimeter, mimicking the exact same moves, and then the two things get spliced together and create this effect of one person being taller and smaller. It ends up being like an SAT problem where a hobbit and a dwarf and a man and an elf each leave a train station traveling at X miles per hour. McKays says, “You have to shoot everything twice. Payne recalls their visual effects coordinator saying, “Do you want to know what the single most complicated scene that you’ve written in season one is? It’s a scene in which the elf and the dwarf walk down a hallway together.” Instead, they built a lavish version on a soundstage.īut in dreaming up wild, fantastical monsters and ambitious real-world locations, McKay and Payne learned that the trickiest challenges of making a Middle-earth show lay elsewhere. The practicalities of trying to spelunk their cast and 300 crew members soon put that idea to rest. ![]() “There’s this place called the Lost World…that has this whole ecosystem and is absolutely crazy,” Payne says. The duo wanted to shoot the dwarven mining city under an actual mountain in New Zealand. “An example would be Khazad-dûm,” Payne says. (That perceived overreliance was something some fans disliked in Jackson’s Hobbit trilogy.) McKay and Payne had a keen interest in practical effects and real-world locations, which didn’t always align with their (admittedly enormous) budget. But there’s been a recent movement, led by Lucasfilm and Star Wars, in both genre filmmaking and its fandom away from an overreliance on digital effects. For example, King Elendil’s legendary broken sword, Narsil, which debuted on one of Prime Video’s promotional posters, does not look identical to the one eventually reforged and used by Viggo Mortenson’s Aragorn in The Return of the King.Īs fans will have already seen in the Super Bowl teaser, there are plenty of innovative digital effects in The Rings of Power. The production design, though similar, is not trying to match the Jackson films. It’s worth remembering, if only for legal reasons, that this is not the exact same world. Even Benjamin Walker, who plays Gil-galad, bears a striking resemblance to Mark Ferguson, who appeared as the elven king in a nonspeaking cameo in The Fellowship of the Ring’s prologue. Actors like Morfydd Clark (Galadriel) and Robert Aramayo (Elrond) were cast, in part, because they could age into the older versions played respectively by Cate Blanchett and Hugo Weaving in Jackson’s films. In creating this new story, McKay and Payne’s goal was, in McKay’s words, “different but familiar.” While the series is not a precise continuation of Peter Jackson’s The Lord of the Rings, it shouldn’t clash with the cinematic world fans have come to know and love. ![]() ![]() However, a Water Bucket can still be used to quench somewhat smaller amounts of Lava. Therefore, attempting to generate Obsidian here is usually not very effective, due to most of the Water evaporating before touching any lava. If any Water enters the Underworld, it will quickly evaporate.The Underworld starts at about 3000 feet (1500 tiles) underground in a large world, at about 2000 feet (1000 tiles) underground in a medium world, and at about 1300 feet (650 tiles) underground in a small world.Shadow Chests require the Shadow Key to open (acquired in the Dungeon's Locked Gold Chests, Golden Lock Boxes, or dropped from Arch Wyverns ) and contain unique Underworld-only loot.įor more information, see NPC happiness. The middle two-quarters of the Underworld contains several Ruined Houses, which are towers made from Obsidian Bricks and, less commonly, Hellstone Bricks that contain Shadow Chests, Hellforges, Pots, Obsidian furniture, and other lootable items. Further, because the Wall of Flesh is summoned by dropping a Guide Voodoo Doll into Lava, killing a Voodoo Demon positioned over Lava can inadvertently summon it. Hellstone, a valuable crafting material only obtainable in the Underworld, inflicts the Burning debuff when touched and releases half a tile of Lava when mined. The Underworld contains many hazards, such as large pools of Lava and various difficult enemies. The Wall of Flesh boss can be summoned in the Underworld defeating it will cause the world to convert to Hardmode. It also contains numerous Ruined Houses, which are natural structures containing unique furniture and loot. It is a large, open cavern that stretches across the bottom of the world, with a ceiling of Ash Blocks and a lower terrain of large Lava pools, Ash Blocks, and Hellstone.

Most surgeons wore their street clothes while operating. ![]() Antiseptic surgery was often performed in the patient’s home or in an operating theatre in front of an audience that could include hundreds of people. However, it was mainly aseptic practices, not antisepsis, that made modern surgery look like it does today. It went along with increased surgical success rates, heightened confidence of surgical practitioners and a considerable expansion of the surgical domain. Following its propagation by the British surgeon Joseph Lister in the 1860s, the use of antisepsis to prevent wound disease by killing living germs precipitated unprecedented changes in surgery. ![]() The alignment led to ‘asepsis’ as a new strategy of combating wound disease, replacing or supplementing the older practice of ‘antisepsis’. This paper discusses how surgeons eventually followed Pasteur’s advice and aligned their field of activity to laboratory science in specific ways, as, vice versa, laboratory work on bacteriology was shaped by surgical concerns in a process of mutual realignment. The power of controlling microorganisms in the laboratory was to be transferred to a specific part of the outside world – the operating room. In the passage above, he recommends adopting the same strategy in the surgical work environment. These were the kinds of technologies that had enabled Pasteur to subject microorganisms to control by his eyes and hands and allowed him to make far-reaching claims about the cause of infectious diseases and ways to prevent them. Furthermore, he ‘would use only lint, bandages and sponges previously exposed to air temperatures of 130– and use water that had been heated to temperatures of 110– ’. Pasteur did this in his laboratory with all objects that came into contact with his microbial cultures, in order to avoid contamination. If he were a surgeon, the laboratory scientists Louis Pasteur wrote in 1878, he would not only clean his instruments thoroughly, ‘but after having cleaned my hands with the greatest of care, I would subject them to rapid flaming’. ![]() ![]() Subreddit / Profile icon created by /u/idealmori If you encounter issues, please write us a modmail!
