define worthy?


if you mean not chinese crap then your looking at EyeMagic for Europe (Italy)


I have a pair of EyeMagic scanners and have been really impressed by them... personally I won't buy another set of chinese scanners ever again...

well I converted a bunch of hour long ADAT shows I had into 8 channel (x,y,r,g,b,smpte,l,r) FLAC's using Audacity and successfully played them out of my sound card dac... was nice having one file... file size was just over 1gb for an hour+ long show

I am still not seeing the problem with FLAC... its a widely accepted format, it supports 8 channels (I have many flac files that are a single file that have 6~8 individual channels of audio) and doesn't require extra steps of rar/unrar etc

its down to $347... i am fairly certain the lasers are TTL, but you could always swap out the drivers... and I think swapping the 405 out for a 200mw module along with feeding a bit of the "blue" signal to the green to inject a bit of green into the violet to give you a decent blue... definitely worth the price I think, its hard to not buy some :)

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FLAC

Alec and I taked about this for a while on the phone. This project doesn't support waves of more than two channels.

But, it might make some sence to come up with a custom RLE compression scheme that splits the wave into its mono streams and RLE compresses each track. This would be a totally new kind of file and would need to be converted back to a multi channel wave before it could be used for anything. I guess this is just one more thing to throw on the pile of possible things to do!

FLAC supports 8 channels

if you want something turn-key I think its a pretty decent deal... if you are willing to make your own your always going to be better off making your own... thats what I did for my projector and do not regret it...

but for a simple portable projector, this thing is hard to beat, especially when you take into account the amount of time to build, align, tweak a projector etc

I wonder if FLAC could deal with DC... would be nice to have some lossless data compression  ;D

I think foobar also has this functionality, I know I playback FLAC files that are in 5.1 in it without issue (although I mixdown to stereo, but thats another story lol)

hrmm, could convert my lasershow WAV's to FLAC, wouldn't that be something?!
