Kyser Pro/AM Screw on Capo Review

About the Kyser Pro/AM capo

Kyser CapoThis is a review for the Kyser Pro/AM screw on capo for a six string guitar. The capo is made of some type of metal that looks and feels a bit like aluminum, with two rubber sleeves that slide on and attach to the capo to prevent scratching or denting your guitar’s neck or the frets. The capo came inside of a small plastic little box, nothing fancy. I don’t think that it came with any instructions or paper with it either, just the capo in a box. The design for this thing is fairly simple; you slip it over the neck and screw it in place.
I bought my Kyser capo from amazon.com for about $4.00, but they normally range around $6.00 to $7.00 if you buy it from a music store or from the Official Kyser website.

The Legend of Baldur’s Gate

Baldur's Gate day The original Baldur’s Gate was developed by BioWare and was published and released back in 1998 by Black Isle Studios and Interplay Entertainment for both windows PC and Mac. Those who have played the game will probably agree that Baldur’s Gate was (and still is) one of the greatest role playing games ever created. Hardcore fans of the game have probably heard that Overhaul games, Hasbro, and Atari have re-released the game as an enhanced edition that offers new missions, areas and characters. You can check that out at the official Baldur’s Gate website. If you don’t want to wait around to buy the enhanced edition, why not replay the original game again?

CamStudio Desktop Movie Recorder Review

What is CamStudio

CamStudio is a free video recording program for windows that is supposed to record anything on your desktop. And yes, it does do exactly what it is supposed to do but it does have a few problems as well. Before I get into the flaws of the program I’ll first clear up exactly what the program does. When you open CamStudio the record button is on the top left side of the main menu. Whatever is open, let’s say you are running a video game like L.A.W: Living after war it will record whatever you see on the screen, including mouse movements.

LMI Sopranino Recorder Review

About the LMI Sopranino Recorder

LMI recorder

LMI recorder There’s not much information about this recorder floating around so I decided to write this review for it. Hopefully this will fill in the gap for the lack of detail about this instrument. I’m not sure who this LMI Company is because I couldn’t find their official website or any information about where they came from, the closest thing I could find was the Lyons musical instruments, but I’m not 100% sure if this is the same company because this recorder is nothing like the cheap clear plastic recorders that Lyon makes.
