Support Mail Issues

My mail server seems to have gotten stuck the last few days, and my fuzzmeasure support address did not deliver mails since the 16th of June. I feel pretty confident that I got all the mail out of the queue successfully, but if you haven't heard from...


Upgrades 12 Days Later

I have used the iBook for 12 days since I installed the RAM and HDD upgrades. I feel that I can now give a much better overall impression about how much better the notebook works, since shortly afterwards you really cannot "do everything" to see how...


Improved Smoothing

Just when I thought smoothing couldn't get better… </p> <p> I coded up three different smoothing algorithms for FuzzMeasure. Well, I actually used only two methods, but one method had two possible ways to implement it. Anyway, I wanted to use a fractional...


Smoothing!

</p> <p> I finally got smoothing worked out for FuzzMeasure 1.3. I implemented smoothing using FFT filtering of the frequency data, and the results look great! In the picture above, the blue curve represents a 64k FFT analysis of my iBook's impulse...


10.3.9 Required For 1.2.2

Today I learned for certain that you must have 10.3.9 installed in order to run FuzzMeasure 1.2.2. FuzzMeasure requires a special support library for gcc4 that gets installed on your machine when you install 10.3.9. All applications built using the...


Extreme Makeover: iBook Edition

</p> <p> Yesterday I received my RAM and HDD for gonzo. Installing the two items did not take very long at all (around an hour). If I did it again, I could probably complete the upgrade in about a half an hour. </p> <p> Now, gonzo runs snappier...


FuzzMeasure 1.2.2 Done

I have sat on FuzzMeasure 1.2.2 long enough. I finally tracked down the one crashing bug that got submitted to my automatic bug reporting tool about 5 or 6 times, which stemmed from my misuse of a timer object. Unfortunately, the bug only showed...


iBook Upgrade

When I planned to buy a laptop for FuzzMeasure development, I did not have much money to spend on it. I dreamed for a PowerBook, but I just could not afford it. At the time, the PowerBook only led the iBook in bus speed, graphics card, and a few...
