Enhance To Greater Quality Of Sound With Sennheiser HD 201 Headphones And Other Sennheiser Headsets

By Jessie Wills


Clear, distinct, real sound - it has been a long time since you have listened to tracks this way. For quite awhile now you have had to settle for cheap cans that have weak amplification when you've got The Clash on and it has this horrible hiss every time you're trying to loosen up with Amy Winehouse. You've got excellent preference in music but your low budget, ear hurting headset, The Clash, Winehouse, and the others of your desirable music collection will begin to sound extremely ordinary.

You work hard all day and all week. You seldom venture out for pub evenings. You seldom indulge in life's small luxuries. Don't you suppose you are entitled to even more in the case of your music? This isn't to suggest you ought to expend above a hundred dollars for a pair of innovative headsets though, and with Sennheiser HD 201 headphones, you really need not to expend a large amount for nice, quality sound.

Indeed, well known as an audio expert, the Sennheiser name makes DJs, rock stars, pop stars, musicians, and basically every music lover on earth warm and fuzzy all over. The leading name has enhanced headphone technology and with the HD 201, it has done so within the financial category.

Clean overall sound, snug fit, durable construction (if ever you have a habit of dropping objects and other tech tools, the HD 201 can take quite a beating - just do not do it purposely though), and good price point, Sennheiser's HD 201 is a fantastic set for you if you're a habitual listener who delights in a great deal of in-home listening. Likewise worth mentioning relating to the HD 201 is the nonexistence of noise leakage, which can come to be quite a hassle on the majority of headsets and earphones when you are like a closet Barry Manilow or Justin Bieber admirer. So long as you have the HD 201 on, nobody around you will ever find out you are mellowing out to "I Write the Songs" or busting out to "Baby".

When your resource permits a bit more flexibility and your occupation or lifestyle has you continuously moving, prefer the Sennheiser PX200-II headphones. The PX200-II permits you to tune in to your sort of tunes without being irritated by outside noise and vice versa. Regardless if you're going on the way to the copy room at the office or sitting on the train, PX200-II's closed design shields you from outside talk and perfect noise isolation keeps your favorite rock or pop tunes from disrupting other individuals.

For a fantastic, truly impressive audiophile go through, the noise-cancelling clarity, the fine sound production, and stronger bass attributes of the Sennheiser MM 550 headphones will make it seem like Gotye or Supertramp are furnishing you with an exclusive concert any place you go. Not only will you be able to carry your Sennheiser MM 550 anywhere you please, you will be able to utilize it hands-free. The Stereo Bluetooth technology features hassle-free use together with optimized high-fidelity stereo sound.

Why go for cheap, poor quality headphones that turn your fabulous list of music into ear hurting tunes when Sennheiser has a collection of contemporary headphones that cater to your cost bracket? Convert to better headphones today. The Clash, Amy Winehouse, or Justin Bieber-and most importantly, you-should have the greatest that sound technology has to deliver.

Look For Good Quality Drum Practice Kits

By Nicke Johnson


It should not be difficult finding great quality drum practice kits in order to improve your percussion playing skills. If you are an aspiring musician who is just starting out or if you have been working as a professional drummer for a while but need something easier than a complete set in order to practice more effectively, this should not be hard to find. There are many businesses out there with a wide range of tools and kits to offer you, so have a look and you will find something of your liking.

Research of course should be your first step. If you want to find something, you need to search and the Internet has made this a lot easier for you. All you have to do is look for available manufacturers and distributors and check their websites to see what they promise to deliver. Some of them will have a wide range of products to choose from.

Also, it is only natural not to want to invest on a proper drum set if you're starting out. Familiarizing yourself with the instrument's basics can be done without spending too much money and without a set occupying too much space in your house. Also, the smaller the kit you go for, the easier it will be for you to carry it with you when you want to practice elsewhere.

Also, search for a kit that you can move around whenever you feel the need to do so. It is important that you can carry it with you easily when you travel and as known, a proper drums set does not have this ability. The most important advantage of investing in a practicing kit rather than an entire set is the fact that you will pay a lot less but you'll get to learn how to play just as well and the transition from practicing kit to a set will become smoother.

Still however you will need to invest in a good quality kit. Don't just purchase an inexpensive one in your effort to save as much money as you can. The truth is that the lower the quality of your kit, the shorter amount of time that you will have it for and the more times that you will have to replace it. This will cost you more money in the long run.

Compare prices when you're searching for tools and read customer reviews. A lot of musicians will write testimonials on sites that they have used or that they have ordered from. Others will take part in forum discussions and will express opinions or share their experiences regarding specific kits and their manufacturers. Try to read all this and to gather all the information available. This is certainly valuable insight if you can get it.

Also, remember to search for a good quality kit. Although you will only be using it for practicing purposes, still, you should find tools that will last you for a long time and will save you the money of having to replace them every now and then. This will make a great difference in your budget, so do search for something well made and not too cheap.

Drum practice tools are easy to find. However you should aim to get the highest quality available on the market. Only then will you manage to make the most out of your practicing routine.

Small enough that it can slip into a pocket or purse easily, the Nikon CoolPix L18 offers an easy-to-handle camera ideal for adventure vacations, concerts, parties, or anywhere else that a larger camera may be difficult to manage.

Though it's small in size, the Nikon CoolPix L18 has the components to produce large, clear photos. The 8.0 megapixels creates digital files that can print sharp images up to 16 x 20 inches. The CoolPix also features a new type of digital processor, dubbed EXPEED, that keeps the same sharpness and coloring in the photo that you see with the naked eye. The EXPEED processor aids in quicker response times, ensuring the camera is ready to shoot again and again without slow processing between shots, and returns better quality so that photos look natural.

The CoolPix L18 has a great 3.0 inch LCD screen, and as a result you will be able to preview your pictures more easily and ultimately you have a much easier time lining up your shots. On bright and sunny days, you'll be happy to know the LCD screen also is coated with Nikon's Anti-Reflection technology.

Need a digital camera that can zoom in and out all while maintaining a high quality image? The CoolPix L18 comes with 3x Optical Zoom-Nikkor Glass lens. The 3x Optical Zoom allows you to zoom in and out, quickly and efficiently, producing pictures that maintain the natural look and appearance of the light and colors around your subject.

The L18 also comes with an adjustable ISO. If you a camera "newbie" and you don't feel like worrying about lighting, the adjustable ISO, while in automatic mode, will continuously adjust the camera's ISO for you helping you produce "lighting perfect" pictures day or night.

The anti-shake feature detects any movement of your subject and automatically changes the shutter speed to make sure the photo doesn't blur.

If you have a lot of older pictures in your family album with lighting issues and red-eye, you will also be happy to know the L18 has features to correct those issues as well. The Nikon CoolPix L18 Red Eye Fix technology scans images for instances of red-eye and removes it automatically. Now you won't have to spend your time correcting eye color. Also, the L18 comes with "D-lighting" a feature that corrects lighting issues in dark areas while leaving any areas of your image that don't need adjusting alone. The "Face Priority" feature has the ability to recognize faces, focus on your subjects individually to group photos are a breeze.

Beading Works - 5 Simple And Fun Halloween Season Designs

By Eddie Dean


Halloween is fast becoming the most popular holiday in the country, currently second only to Christmas, and the holiday really outranks Christmas with respect to money spent on decorations, food, and drink (the leading champion of holiday party spending is, and possibly always will be, New Year's, but Halloween is a compelling second!). So if you're looking for fun Halloween beading projects to "spookify" things coming October 31, then keep reading and we'll run through five fun Halloween beading projects you can make an attempt! Or, if you're going down the plan of selling the fruits of your bead craft project, you will find a large and standing market for the designs you create!

1 - Jack o'Lanterns - The traditional, beadwork style! You can make use of seed beads of several tints of oranges and yellows (on a black setting if you're looking to make something larger), to hang on the mantle or as a dressing to the patio railing. Involve the children by having them plan out the faces!

2 - Black Cats - A basic cat silhouette can be the basis for a layout (all black seed beads, or black combined with a smattering of silver for amazing effect), with the option of using larger beads for the eyes. These can be kept quite simple or can become a dramatically more complex beading project, but even the simplest designs can make quite a spectacular statement!

3 - Witches - You could do a simple bust pattern or a complete figure representation of a witch on a broomstick, based on your overall skill level. These are enjoyable to make, and make excellent decor, but tend to be more involved compared to either of the projects above.

4 - Dangling Skeletons - Obviously the most advanced of the projects pointed out here, these can be created of any size you wish, but certainly smaller is better from a "time to complete" perspective. If you don't like to worry over creating an actual skeletal design, you can weave a skeletal pattern onto a black background, for example, the size of a square drink coaster and still have a beautiful piece to decorate with!

5 - Candy Corns - These aren't spooky, but certainly match the season, and are most fun when made as 3-dimensional shapes. I would not suggest going much over two inches high, or they'll take far too long to finish, but because of their relatively simple structure, this is another task that's wonderful to involve the kids in!

As you can see based on the five ideas above, there are all forms of exciting holiday beading projects you can stick your teeth into, and this list just only scratches the surface of the beading work out there, so whether you plan to use them to embellish your own house, or sell what you develop, it's time to get making!

Allowing Emotional Reactions To Transform Your Character - Acting Classes in NYC

By Maggie Flanigan


Any actor interested in studying the Meisner technique should explore what's known as the actors instrument. The instrument analogy can be helpful when breaking down all the various aspects that can determine how good an actor is. As an audience member, it becomes apparent very quickly who the good actors in a piece are or who might be falling short. It may also just be a sense of something not coming across in the right way. They can also sense when an actors instrument is not well developed, because they don't "believe" the character portrayal.

The actors instrument is comprised of six different elements, all important. The aspects of the instrument include sensory expression, emotional, empathy, intelligence and sensory and physical expression. Mastering the craft of acting with the Meisner Technique requires that all six aspects of the instrument are well developed. It is easy even for non actors to identify professional actors who have mastered the different aspects of their "instrument." Rarely, there are actors that come along and become the best of the best by being gifted at them all.

For example, an actor like Stallone is known mainly for his physical expression and presence. Stallone is certainly able to express emotionally, but overall his most powerful tool onscreen is his physical expression. As an actor he expresses emotion in a very physical, often external way. This is why actors must focus on learning about each and every aspect of the instrument, so that they can be as well rounded as possible.

Emotional expression is the most common aspect of the instrument that actors are focused on. Obsessing about how a character feels about something and how to express it is usually the primary thing actors concentrate on. One one hand, it is short sighted to place too much emphasis on this particular aspect of the actors instrument, however, emotional expression is certainly a key aspect of emotional expression. All six of the aspects of the instrument should be studied diligently until they are mastered.

Of course, it is meaningful emotional expression that draws people into any character or story. It clues the audience in to what the character is about, the conflicts they face, what their deepest needs are. It is common in classes teaching Meisner acting in nyc to create an emotional history of a character, imagine it in detail and then use all the aspects of the instrument to express them. Meisner acting students are masters of human emotion, the full range and complexity of the human experience. They do this by creating a "library" of human emotion and a resource of reactions and ways of communicating based on studies of real people. When called upon to create a specific character, they dig very deep and create and imagine (another part of the instrument) what that character's emotional story is. This created life, its emotions and patterns of behavior, are then drawn upon moment by moment, not in rehearsed ways, but spontaneously.

Just as an example, vulnerability can express many characteristics, from innocence to deep insecurity. There are many actors who, with hard work, can learn to differentiate and express this complex emotion. If the actor has also worked hard to develop other aspects of the instrument, such as imagination, sensory expression and intelligence, the complexity of emotions will be there. A single tear, without words can accomplish this, but how about a sense of vulnerability shown while one is smashing a clock to pieces? This is a subjective, creative process.

The myth is that acting is simply pretending to have an emotion. However, acting is not simply reciting words using certain inflections and gestures to communicate emotions. Acting is doing, as master teacher Sanford Meisner always said. In other words acting is being in the moment and allowing any number of emotional reactions well up and take you over and turn you into the actual character. This may feel risky at first. Great actors do not force themselves to cry. There are genuine emotions in their performances, often unpredictable ones that appear as they work as character. Developing a deep capacity to understand and feel the full range of human emotions and experiences is a great way to become an open, flexible acting student, the best kind of student. As an actor you must give yourself permission to feel fully and live truthfully, whether you are in character or not.

Tips for launching yourself as a professional DJ

By Louise Redman


If you regularly perform knockout DJ sets in your bedroom and you are looking for a new career path, you could consider starting your own DJ business. This would involve hiring out your skills as a DJ to weddings, parties and corporate events, as well as performing sets at bars and clubs.

The first priority for anyone wanting to start their own DJ business is to source all of the DJ equipment they will need. This includes DJ decks, a DJ mixer, a portable amp and speaker system, a microphone, a decent pair of DJ headphones and maybe even a laptop with the latest DJ mixing software installed. You can search online to see what DJ equipment you will need, and to find the best deals on it.

Now that you've found all the right pieces of DJ equipment, and bought or hired everything you need, your next priority should be to practice your skills at home. If you do this, as well as making some pre-mixes and playlists for different audiences and events, you will be fully prepared for even the most last minute of bookings.

If you want to start booking gigs and making money, marketing is crucial. Start to get the word out by setting up your own website. On this, remember to include all of your contact details and try to sell yourself well.

Another good idea is to get in touch with another DJ who has just started their own business and who is in the same position as you. Agree to let each other know about jobs you are offered but aren't able to do, then you will both get more work.

So, now you have your own website, the right DJ equipment and you are starting to market your new business. What else do you need to do? The last things on your list should be transport for yourself and your gear, and insurance both for your equipment and to cover public liability requirements.
