(14 March 2022)

Russia began a full-scale invasion of Ukraine on 24 February 2022, in an escalation of the Russo-Ukrainian War that began in 2014. The invasion is the largest conventional military attack on a sovereign state in Europe since World War II. Since the beginning of Putin's war, thousands of both Ukraine and Russian citizens have been killed. Russian military have indiscriminately bombed cities in Ukraine, destroying many hospitals and schools. Our heart goes out to the 2.7 million plus refugees that have left Ukraine for neighboring countries, and those who stayed to fight the Russian invaders.

Rossiya nachala polnomasshtabnoye vtorzheniye v Ukrainu 24 fevralya 2022 goda v ramkakh eskalatsii rossiysko-ukrainskoy voyny, nachavsheysya v 2014 godu. Eto vtorzheniye 
yavlyayetsya krupneyshim voyennym napadeniyem s primeneniyem obychnykh vooruzheniy na suverennoye gosudarstvo v Yevrope so vremen Vtoroy mirovoy voyny. S nachala putinskoy
voyny pogibli tysyachi grazhdan Ukrainy i Rossii. Rossiyskiye voyennyye bez razbora bombili goroda Ukrainy, unichtozhiv mnozhestvo bol'nits i shkol. My sochuvstvuyem boleye

Россия начала полномасштабное вторжение в Украину 24 февраля 2022 года в рамках эскалации российско-украинской войны, начавшейся в 2014 году. Это вторжение является крупнейшим
военным нападением с применением обычных вооружений на суверенное государство в Европе со времен Второй мировой войны. С начала путинской войны погибли тысячи граждан Украины
и России. Российские военные без разбора бомбили города Украины, уничтожив множество больниц и школ. Мы сочувствуем более чем 2,7 миллионам беженцев, покинувших Украину в
соседние страны, и тем, кто остался сражаться с российскими оккупантами.


YAGio - Yagi Design by W8IO


YAGio 1.01 is the most current released version.  YAGio runs under Windows 2000, XP, Vista, Win 7 and likely Win 8.  YAGio is similar to LPCAD, it uses keyboard commands instead of a mouse menu. YAGio allows you to create DL6WU long Yagi antennas on any frequency, typically on VHF and UHF ham frequencies. You specify the frequency, desired gain, type of element to boom mounting, DE diameter and parasitic element diameter, and YAGio does the rest.  You can save these designs in 5 different formats - YIO (used by YAGio), NEC (used by 4NEC2), YAG (YO), MMA (MMANA-GAL)  and YC6 (used by YagiCAD). You can also print the results to your Windows default printer. Please email me at rgcox2 (at) gmail.com if you find bugs or to suggest improvements. YAGio.exe version 1.01 was created on 6-10-2015 at 12:39 pm.  The exe file size is 221K. You may download YAGio101.ZIP here.  

I am currently working on YAGio 1.02.  I will also add file export support for 4 bay NEC models.

I like to use 4NEC2 to evaluate my Yagi models.  It is a very nice, full featured version of NEC2.  You can find the latest version of 4NEC2 here: 
http://www.qsl.net/4nec2

You can also find a faster NEC2 "engine" for 4NEC2. (web site currently unavailable) The NEC2/MP "engine" will speed up computation tremendously in dual and quad core PC's.  A model that took 60 seconds to run in 4NEC2's existing computation engine should complete under 25 seconds using the NEC2/MP engine in a dual core CPU and under 12 seconds in a quad core CPU.

Here are a couple screen shots from YAGio 1.0 running in Win 7:

-win-mac- - Native Instruments Massive V1.6.0

Here’s a properly structured for Native Instruments Massive v1.6.0 (WiN & macOS), based on its actual capabilities at that version:

Whether you are a veteran producer revisiting classic patches or a newcomer looking for that iconic, gritty bass sound, understanding the features and updates in v1.6.0 is vital for maximizing your production workflow. What’s New in Massive v1.6.0?

Route the signal into a Daft Filter . Modulate the filter cutoff slightly with the same Performer. In the FX1 slot, load a Classic Tubes distortion to add harmonic warmth and grit. Tutorial 2: Evolving Ambient Cinematic Pad

Go to LFO 6 . Set it to a slow, evolving sine wave rate. Map LFO 6 to the Wt-Position of both oscillators with shallow depth. This causes the textures to subtly shift over time. Native Instruments Massive v1.6.0 -WiN-MAC-

: Includes a massive factory library of presets, which can be easily filtered using an intuitive attribute-based search system to find sounds like "Distorted Bass" or "Synthetic Lead" quickly.

If you are interested in exploring Massive v1.6.0, I can help you with: Finding on how to use the modulators. Finding presets designed for specific genres. Explaining the differences between Massive and Massive X.

Massive popularized the visual assignment of modulators. By clicking on one of the four envelopes or four LFOs/Steppers, you can drag its handle and drop it into an empty slot beneath almost any knob in the interface. Modulate the filter cutoff slightly with the same Performer

Allows you to draw rhythmic patterns, acting like a step sequencer for parameters.

The v1.6.0 update often includes access to over 1,300 curated sounds, designed by leading artists, allowing for immediate inspiration from the first note.

Original Massive is incredibly lightweight on modern processors, making it a go-to choice for sketching out ideas quickly without bloating a project's CPU usage. Set it to a slow, evolving sine wave rate

Mastering the Legend: A Deep Dive into Native Instruments Massive v1.6.0 (Win/Mac)

Massive changed this paradigm through its proprietary "Wave-Scanning" synthesis. It became the industry standard for aggressive bass music. The v1.6.0 update was crucial because it ensured the plugin survived the transition from 32-bit to 64-bit computing environments and adapted to Apple’s shifting macOS architecture (maintaining compatibility during the transition to newer OS versions).

Native Instruments Massive v1.6.0 proves that classic software, when maintained correctly, can remain relevant for decades. By stripping away technical debt and adding modern compatibility, NI has ensured that the synth that defined a genre will continue to rumble subwoofers for years to come.
