| 1305467 | 2012-10-12 07:12:00 | Can you emulate the android platform on PC?Yes, there's a PC emulator for it (it's in the Android SDK), which is intended for developers to use for testing. It's slow as hell though - unless your PC's reasonably powerful (and even if it is, the experience will be painful), it may not run fast enough for SoundHound to work properly. Real hardware is much better if you can get it, even if it's on the lower end of the spec range. |

Classical music started (in the 70s) with: Waldo de los Rios (Mozart 40, Eine Kleine Nachtmusik) Mason Williams (Classical Gas) (with its Wagner tubas!) Walter-or-was-it-Wendy Carlos (Switched on Bach) Wikipedia: "Switched-On Bach is a musical album by Wendy Carlos (originally released under the name of Walter Carlos)." A very interesting discourse Switched-On Bach (en.wikipedia.org) I'd forgotten those on your list, but again, they did serve to bring awareness of the Classics to the multitude, albeit fleetingly. And whatever happened to the wonder of the times, the Moog Synthesiser? Were the parts were used to make some iCrap components? :devil |

Accordion player: Umm..............Tell you what - you hum it and I'll play it yea, that may be an old joke, but I think you'll find the reference is to the old PG Tips tea - chimp ads more specifically, THIS ONE (www.youtube.com) |
