the karaoke trail
•
Initial plan was to stream karaoke files as video to the PS3. Hardware needed: PS3 (got it), mics with echo chamber (got a pair lying around in the old house), AV receiver & surround speakers (not really needed for this particular use, but you know.. we must have them!). Forgetting about hardware for the…

Build 7100: Shiny! Love how I can have two sound systems, and the OS will automatically switch outputs depending on which sound system I plug my headphones into.

Hey everyone. It’s been a while. As you may have noticed we’ve hit level 80 for quite a bit. We’ve also joined a relatively big guild that’s prepping for the newer 25-man raids. So the order of the day is to hit as many heroics as possible to prep us for 10-man raiding. The…
