Xbox Music Mixer

[Sl1p]

...

Im returning it.

[Diff-chan]

Uhh... Mad Catz gave Microsoft a fucking microphone with lead in it, and Microsoft put that in a box and sold it? What the fuck is going on with this thing?

oh, and itd be cool if you could strip out the vocals but also find some way to download the lyrics and display them on screen... if they make a Music Mixer 2 with that feature and a microphone that doesn't cause cancer, maybe Ill give it a go.

It'll have all that and be on xbox live, but MM2 will give you herpes.

How does lead in a microphone give you cancer? I know that eating lead is poisonous, but that's it. I mean, you put on a lead jacket to get X-rays, I thought it protects you.

Thats crazy about the cancer. I've seen fishing hooks that say the samething about the state of california finds this product to cause cancer.

Solid lead is believed to present a relatively low hazard to health, but it is a cumulative poison, and can cause serious harm if inhaled as a powder, or ingested over a long period. Most lead salts are very poisonous, as are many organic compounds containing lead, such as lead tetraethyl.

Just don't lick the bloody thing. Do they say where it's used? Somehow I doubt it would be on the outer shell/casing.

I checked to make sure my Windows firewall was disabled and that my local network was correctly set up. After making a few adjustments I've been able to transfer my MP3s and JPEGs with no problem.

I love the slide show feature this thing has. I've made one of my daughter with some happy happy music so that my family can come over and watch. You can have the pics fade out, pan and scan, slide off in any direction, etc. You can even choose how long each pic remains on screen, from 2-8 seconds.

Loading the pics is even faster than music. I use a program called A Smaller Image to reduce the file size (from 1000kb to 25 kb with almost no quality loss), and plan to put all of my daughter's pictures on my system. I had the slide show on last night while reading the new OXM and it makes for some cool background noise.

I just wonder how long before someone decides to put the "X" in Xbox with some porno JPEGs.
