Saw a preview yesterday of the new Batmobile and this thing looks even more beastly than in the Dark Knight series. But Ben Affleck as Batman? Seriously? :shake:

Not sure what you mean. I think you can do a time range selection but when you say "frequency domain" do you really mean you could lasso just certain frequencies of the sound bite? If so, is that a realistic expectation?

Yea. I understand what you mean. I didn't mean in the sequence editor, I meant in the waveform edit window. And it would be something new, like not just a spectral display, but some other spectral DSP functions. As it is, just having a spectral display for the graphic editor will be useful, for sure.

Ben Affleck as Batman? THERE'S a story.

Let me guess; Gotham is now in New Jersey, but it's Gotham Bar & Grill in Bayonne?
Honestly, I don't think Batman could clean up Jersey! That's more an Incredible Hulk sort of task.

Then again... It'll be fun watching the Batmobile making a left turn on US Highway 1.

Robin: Holy Grover's Mill, Batfleckman! Princeton Junction is THATTAWAY!
Batfleckman: And thattaway is where we're going, Robin, if we ever get out of this roundabout!
Robin: Hurry, Batfleckman! The martians are getting away! This thing's going to send us to Piscataway!
Batfleckman: Robin! I think you solved it. The martians were trying to get to Piscataway, but they got trapped in the roundabout, and ended up in Princeton Junction! Confused, and a little bit dizzy, they crashed at Grover's Mill!
Robin: Holy Cranbury Road, Batfleckman! I think you're right. But what's in Piscataway?
Batfleckman: That would be MOTU's beta tester. He's the holdup in getting DP9 out the door. They probably wanted to... er... reason with him. I think our work is done, Robin. Let's go get a brewski.
Robin: But... Batfleckman... what about the martians?
Batfleckman: You're forgetting this is Jersey, Robin. Aliens have no immunity here. All we have to do is wait.
Robin: Wait? Wait for what?
Batfleckman: Sooner or later they'll step on a rusty nail or trip over an old railroad track. Then we just wait for biology to take 'em out.
Robin: Brilliant, Batfleckman! Let's head to Gotham Bar & Grill!
Batfleckman: We can't, Robin. It's on the left. The Jersey Batmobile can't turn left.
Robin: Well, if we can't go thattaway, let's go to Piscataway, and take that MOTU beta tester out for a brew. Maybe he just needs to relax a little.
Batfleckman: You read my mind, Robin. Read my mind. 'Jersey Batmobile, plot a course to state hwy 18.'

This is good. And true too like you wouldn't believe. :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Real-life story: Decades ago my day job was as an engineer at RCA Astro designing and building satellite command and control systems. Our facility was in the next town over from Grovers Mill. We used to joke that the guy that was in charge of RCA at the time was left there by the Martians.

Staying OT: they should move Batman to Austin Texas, since there are more bats (and bat caves) there than anywhere else in the US. :-)

:lol: I thought you might like it!

Full disclosure: a dear friend of mine, a lady who is not only a great musician, but a fantastic composer and music director, used to live in Grovers Mill. I don't mean in the community around it; I mean IN the mill. The actual wheel gearing came up through the floor of her living room, and you could look out the window over the waterwheel's remains. I stayed there some with her and enjoyed absorbing the local culture, such as the roundabouts on Jersey roads where there simply aren't any left-turns, and the rusty, abandoned railroads like spider-webs through all those woods. Not far away was the sprawling RCA facility you mentioned, on the way into town at Princeton. (Princeton Junction is basically Princeton, but over at the ex-Pennsylvania RR station)

In seemingly most of Ben Affleck's movies, he plays a kid/adult from New Jersey. Seemed appropriate that his Batfleckman would be about the same thing, and, well, the martian thing was just there. For those who don't get the connection, Grover's Mill was ground-zero for the Martian attack in War of the Worlds.

Yep, that's us. We Texans are a little batty. There's no denying it.

"Holy Buttzville, Batman, the Bat-Siri-GPS took a wrong turn in Hoboken and we ended up in Ho-Ho-Kus!"

Seriously, driving in NJ it totally Nutzville. These roller derby death spirals called "Traffic Circles," 60 mph miracle mile highways with traffic lights... To say nothing of government-sponsored bridge closings. The only good thing is you never have to pump your own gas! And they are trying to repeal that!!!

P.S. I believe Princeton Junction is actually in a town called West Windsor.

Yeah, that's what I'm talkin' bout. I love Shoosie's Batman stories.

Back on topic.

Are you talking about the type of editing done in iZotope RX's spectral repair? That would be a MAJOR addition to DP.
