Hacking Winamp



->Open up winamp
-> select preferences[Ctrl-P]
-> select DSP/Effect under Plugins on the left pane
-> select Nullsoft Signal Processing Studio DSP on the visible right side pane[you will see it if u are using a winamp 5.xx]
you should see a window with some text fields, actually a lot. just select "Enable Processing" on the left side, and then in the right lowest pane, "Per sample(or sample-pair):", well that is another place to hack away.
if you do have a pair of headphones[would be better] or speakers placed like a audiophile would, paste this in that textbox:
l = 0.5*spl0;
r = 0.5*spl1;
spl0 = 2*l - r;
spl1 = 2*r - l;
what the above does is cut out a bit of the common channel. DSP enthusiasts will know. so experience wise, the sound "spreads" and the common center image lessens in intensity. beware that this lessens a lot of the common channel, so bass and other common frequencies will be chopped out, but rock tracks are really helped by this. for major modifications to the sound with this, it might not be helpful unless clubbed with other plugins to filter out produced harmonics.

explanation:
l = 0.5*spl0; //get the left channel and halve it
r = 0.5*spl1; //get the right channel and halve it
spl0 = 2*l - r; //take something of the common channel out of the left channel
spl1 = 2*r - l; //take something of the common channel out of the right channel
so spl0 is always the left channel and spl1 is the right channel. so something like spl0 = 0 is bound to take away the left channel.
hackaway.
Interesting Is'nt it?

Google Facts

The name Google is a spelling error. The founders of the site, Larry page and Sergey Brin , thought they were going for Googol .. Googol is the mathematical term for 1 followed by 100 zeros. Initially, Larry and Sergey Brin called their search engine BackRub , named for its analysis of the of the web's "back links." The reason the google page is so bare is because t he founder didn't know HTML and just wanted a quick interface. The company's first office was in a garage , in Menlo Park, California . Google's first employee was Craig Silverstein, now Google's Director of technology. The basis of Google's search technology is called PageRank that assigns a rank to determine how useful it is. However, that is not why it is called PageRank. It is actually named after Google co-founder Larry Page . It would take 5,707 years for a person to search Google's 3 billion pages . The Google software does it in 0.5 seconds. The logos that appear on ...

If programming languages were cars...

There have been many comparisons between programming languages and different aspects of human life by many individuals .This is one of them , a comparison between programming languages and cars.This post is inspired from the article originally written by Mike Vanier.This is an update to an old series of jokes about computer languages being like cars. Just go through this list and see if you can come out with your own list of comparisons.Here goes the list... The list Ada is a tank. A butt-ugly tank that never breaks down. People laugh uncontrollably if you tell them you drive Ada, but really, do you want to be driving a sports car in a war zone? Assembly Language is a bare engine; you have to build the car yourself and manually supply it with gas while it's running, but if you're careful it can go like a bat out of hell. Assembly Language : YOU are the car. Basic is a simple car useful for short drives to the local shops. Once popular with learner drivers, it has recen...

Find Out if your Computer is Secretly Connecting to Web

If you are trying to track down why your computer is running so slowly, try using this simple DOS command from Digital Inspiration to uncover a possible problem: • Type cmd in your Windows Run box. • Type "netstat -b 5 > activity.txt" and press enter. • After say 2 minutes, press Ctrl+C. • Type "activity.txt" on the command line to open the log file in notepad (or your default text editor) This .txt file will have a record of everything that has made an Internet connection in the last couple of minutes; you can then check your task manager to find out where it is and take care of it. The file activity.txt will have a log of all process that made a connection to the Internet in the last two minutes. It will also show which process connected to which website in this time. And not just the web browsers (like iexplore.exe or opera.exe), the log will also show your IM clients, download managers, email programs or any software that requires a net connection. Scroll th...
