MIDI Companion 2.0
MIDI Companion is a highly-efficient, high-quality remote interface to the best keyboards in existence, the Kurzweil K2500/K2600/K2661. more>>
MIDI Companion 2.0 is a highly-efficient, high-quality remote interface to the best keyboards in existence, the Kurzweil K2500/K2600/K2661.
This is the Mac OS X version, there will be no further updates to the Mac OS 9 version. The Companion allows you to control your Kurzweil from your Macintosh. This saves wear and tear on the Kurzweil buttons and it allows you to work more efficiently. Take the simplest task on your Kurzweil. You've just created a new program, or layed down the first track in a sequence.
The Kurzweil wants a name for this new object, and you sit there for 5 minutes spinning the data wheel or pecking at the keypad to enter "Rad Piano" or "Techno Song". Forget it! Now just reach over to your Mac keyboard and type on a normal keyboard! And that's just the start. The Companion allows you to see your Kurzweil screen remotely, allows you to enter numeric data for things like frequencies, select programs from a complete, searchable list instead of 8 crowded lines, export the list of objects in your machine, and more.
Requirements:
- Mac OS X 10.3 or later, and a two-way MIDI connection between your Mac and your Kurzweil.

BombSquad Mini - Minesweeper game more>>

SoundOn! 1.0.1
SoundOn! prevents PowerBook speakers from turning off when you use battery power more>>
The negative side of this is that when the computer plays a sound you see the spinning rainbow cursor and have to wait for two or three seconds (while the computer waits for the speakers to be turned on) before you can continue using the computer.
SoundOn! plays a "silence" sound every twenty seconds, so that your PowerBooks speakers will be never turned off and will be ready to play when needed: so youll stop waiting at every damn sound! :-)
You may say that this will lower the duration of the battery and probably it does, but I can say that battery performance decrease is not noticeable. Another thing... SoundOn! is not needed on Mac OS 9 since this OS doesnt seem to turn off speakers.
Apple posted a kbase article about this issue.The affected models are:
-iBook (Dual USB)
-iBook (Late 2001)
-iBook (14.1 LCD)
-PowerBook G4 (Gigabit Ethernet)
-Power Mac G4 (QuickSilver 2002)
-iMac (Flat Panel)
Enhancements:
- The application automatically quits if it is launched under Mac OS X 10.1.1 or lower.
- The silence sound is executed every 20 seconds instead of 10, so that SoundOn uses even less processor time than version 1.0.
Shih 1.3
Shih - Puzzle game widget more>>
By re-orienting walls in such a way as they enclose one or more enemy pieces and no empty spaces or friendly pieces, a player captures the enclosed pieces.
The rules are simple enough to learn, but it takes time to master the use of tempo.
Enhancements:
- More detailed information on widgets back.
- Now prevents the use of a Power Spin when rotating a space that may legally be affected by a Spin move.
- Cleaner HTML and Javascript files, including more detailed JS comments.
Terrific Triangles 1.5.2
Terrific Triangles - basic math facts practice using fact families more>>
In all cases the triangle presents two parts of a fact family and the player must determine the missing third part. The sum and product always appear at the top of the triangle. The addends and factors always go in the two lower corners.
Student mode allows individual facts practice with a running score for correct answers. The player may select difficulty and whether to play against a timer.
Teacher mode allows for group play.
Students are presented with a problem and the timer spins one revolution. Then a student name appears and the timer spins again. The student whos name is shown tries to call out the answer before the timer finishes. We like this system of showing the student name after the first spin because, if the time is set short enough, students are encouraged to pay attention even before knowing whether they will need to answer. If they wait until they see their name (or a neighbor tells them to look!) it may be too late to calculate.
Press the "Return" or "Enter" key for a new problem to display. The empty corner will be random. If you wish to select which corner will be blank, click that corner with the mouse instead of using the keyboard. Student mode may be used right away. Generally teacher mode requires that names be entered first. The names and settings will remain saved between uses.
Enhancements:
- Added support for Intel processors
- General speed increase
- Fixed problem where timer might freeze during extended use
- User-selected ranges of multiplication facts are now followed accurately
- Minor cosmetic changes
