Sonic Studio introduces media server Amarra

Sonic Studio has demonstrated its new Amarra music server at the Rocky Mountain Audio Fest in Denver. Amarra is a FireWire-based media server handling PCM audio with up to a 192KHz bitrate that uses a Sonic Studio soundBlade derivative on the software side. The Amarra technology is similar to what is used to produce CD master files, promising audiophile-level music playback. It uses hardware side processing for sample-rate adjustments, equalization and volume control, and the server will integrate with both iTunes and Mac OS X.

Future Amarra features include a hardware-based digital crossover, NoNOISE II software for repairing archive and vinyl recordings, bit-perfect CD ripping, DSD playback and six-channel surround sound. The new server will be in stores soon, and pricing has not been announced.

Mozilla releases supercharged Firefox 3.1 beta 1

Most major browsers in development right now have a strong focus on speed. Chrome set the benchmark a few weeks ago; Mozilla and Apple will be following up with new browsers – Firefox 3.1 and Safari 4.0 – that promise dramatic speed gains. Microsoft claims that its Internet Explorer 8.0 will also be faster than 7.0, but the current beta 8 is clearly outmatched by its rivals at this time.

Mozilla’s speed gains in Firefox 3.1 are based on two factors: The new rendering engine Gecko 1.9.1 as well as the TraceMonkey JavaScript engine. Surprisingly, while TraceMonkey is integrated in Firefox 3.1, it is not active in the just released Firefox 3.1 beta 1. However, users can turn on the feature by following a few steps:

The feature that users were all talking about before the release was TraceMonkey, this boosts rendering speeds up to 40 times faster than the previous version of Firefox. This feature has been switched off, you can enable it by typing “about:config” in the address bar.

Then you will need to type javascript.options.jit.content in the Filter field, you then need to change the setting to “True”, this is done by double-clicking the item. You will then have to restart Firefox 3.1 for the change the change to take effect.

1. Type about:config in the URL bar
2. Type javascript.options.jit.content in the Filter field
3. Double-click on the entry to set the value to true
4. Close the browser window and restart the browser

According to Mozilla, TraceMonkey should deliver speed gains of up to 40x compared to previous version of Firefox. Depending on the website, we instantly noticed speed gains as some websites that showed some delay previously now load notably faster. Subjectively, the new Firefox plays in the same league as Google Chrome in most webpages we visited this morning. However, this subjective impression of a much faster browser is not mirrored by Google’s V8 benchmark test, which delivered a score of 74 for Firefox 3.1 Beta 1 and a score of 2006 for Google Chrome 0.2.

Besides the speed enhancement, Firefox 3.1 Beta 1 adds support for CSS 2.1 and CSS 3, a URL bar that supports a range of special characters and a tab preview feature that can be used by pressing CTRL+TAB.
Also new is integrated support for new web technologies such as the and elements, the W3C Geolocation API, JavaScript query selectors, web worker threads, SVG transforms and offline applications.
