I don't care how you ended up becoming a bleeding-edge topic celebrity, of a grandiose ego and an eloquent charm, befitting of some "other place," where we're not, in general. Although if you're from somewhere else, that's kind of exotic, I suppose. Maybe I'm a fan, off-hand.
But, on the other hand, I don't want to be insulting if you're corn-fed, standard. I could make you in to something better, I'd imagine. But this is text. It's got to cut to the grit of on: for real squirrels.
Here, (January 10th, 2021) Google hadn't quite gotten through their latest big search algorithm endeavor of "Passage Indexing,"
which, for me, was exciting, as a transliteration-styled long-winded sort of linguistics dilettante, [splotch bum, half-tranny preppy (was the punchline to the "real squirrels") thing]. * of: on. Although I just did it bwopp. You'd have had to have been there; the dead squirrels, it was Pasadena, so it was a bit rustic, some parts, then bwamm: the half-tranny preppy bum. How could I bwopp is; even bwamm! of: on? If they weren't (for some reason, just fresh dead squirrels), and then, I bagged them up, imagining how I'd possibly skin and pelt them, since I found this dog toy squirrel, at one point, over in DTLA, or something, but of on: real squirrels, of on? That would be way bwamm reality bums of Los Angeles. It didn't quite happen, though, but it's still fresh as squirrel meat, for hungry ones, of my acute dictaphone cloud | remote personas affliction sort of thing. It just doesn't much fail, in measured amounts.
I suppose that I've got to shoulder some of the load, in annotating and precluding meta data and the schema KnowledgeBase entities, of this sort of thing, so it can be formalized intelligence, for others to carry out, in discussing the heraldry of the iPigeon.institute enterprise, of it's formative years, and of the folklore of how things had established itself. That's what I'd fancy people imagine about me, for not catching me doing my common duties, out, and about, feeding the birds, and the curious pigeon mind that I inhabit, of the expanse of Los Angeles sprawl, as it's known, of the city; whether it be sidewalk, nook, or gutter: I'm interested in it.
Check this thing out, for example. Do you think it's for real? squirrels? The diamonds?
But anyways, this is text. On one hand, that had gotten a bit off-headline title topic. But I feel that the divergence from standard appeals and proper addressing of an audience, from bwopp up, to whatever I can make of a blog post - ought to be impactfully compelling and offer insight in to the... hmm. Somewhat: it ought to simply portray a simple truth about the enterprise, and of the people, and the morale; the spirit embodying the labors and doings of me; largely, in the spirit of keeping the birds fed, and for the sake of expressing the simple truths of what goes on, showing out the uglies about things, and don't let them be too ugly, or else things will seem unpresentable and disparate from a person's common tastes and ventures out in to what's imaginable about life, and people, in general. I've got people; they read this blog, and I speak to them, and there's all sorts of extents in to development and Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) that I'd been keen on studying, as well. Which brings me to the point of the blog: (not really, but if you knew me, you'd agree): I'm big in to Bluetooth Audio Profiles, multiplexing audio stream inputs and outputs, procuring a kitThings bwopp up kit mode of tiny devices - they're my current IoT indulgences, and they figure in to a large portion of my recent dives in to the "same old web," same old big-name e-tailers (Amazon, Walmart, Google Shopping), although « I just hope » that somehow, with enough browsing, etc., that the same old thing will just pop up, in the latest 10-50 items feed | page thing, going on, and it'll be somehow markedly both improved, better, and, on top of that, newer, and just more, and better, in general. In the meantime, I tab out my browser and figure out what constitutes better, and I spend some time doing research. This is a highly competitive web-research dive in to e-commerce and bluetooth audio, while maintaining some faithfulness to folklorish notions of my guitar-playing youth, of that tube amps were better than solid-state amps, in spades.
and here it is: my own first claim-stake in to tube amplifier technology, with my own chintzy pigeon-feeding bum folklore and heraldry about my blog articles, for the fact that I just do feed the birds. But the tube amp - it's pretty cool, for my purposes. It really warms the sound up, and it looks great, also.
You could, perhaps, scarcely imagine how tiny it is, based on the photo, but the thing fits in to the palm of my hand. That's all that it needs to be, for these purposes: simple 3.5 mm (1/8" inch) adapter headphone and microphone inputs and outputs with TRRS (tip-ring-ring-sleeve) adapters, which I'd also purchased (with much less obsessive nature invested in to finding the right cables). Cables are cables, in general. Unless they suck.
Okay. That's a (somewhat). These days, with Thunderbolt 4 being available on newer devices (I'm at Thunderbolt 3 [USB 3.2] on my MacBook Air), and my iPad Pro... well, it doesn't matter quite as much, for the the iPad Pro, for my uses, but I got an AGVEE mini-splitter, after obsessing like, forever... over iPad Pro USB-C Hub features: how many this, does it have these, and how many? And then the audio port... and I figured that I was starting to lose sight of my acute use profile, that it is, for these audio excursions and slight adventures of a musician's fun-times, and shopping shoppies, for the beginning-of-the-month budget thing.
So, anyways, I "settled" (settled? The AGVEE USB-C 18-watt Power Delivery [PD] and QuickCharge 2.0-featured USB-C port on this thing is partnered with a Realtek 384 kHz, 32-bit audio chipset, for the both of these ports: USB-C, and 3.5 mm 1/8" adapter to occupy; for $23.99), which is competitive, for similar-looking, better, or lesser, or sometimes more: in cost - the device piece of the kitMode, for my audio setup and this thing, for the muxing of the audio - digital, or analog; and I'd covered this stuff in my last blog post, or on Twitter, or something, already, anyhow.
You can envision, for yourself, with how the product feed embodied the challenge of various manufacturers and brands, listed, with varying, and similar, (feature-wise, as well as price-wise), and visually-compelling marketing photos and infographics, for browsing eyes.
The thing with these things is, for example, that Syba (up top) lists a 96 kHz 24-bit DAC (Digital-to-Analog Converter), which pertains to the 3.5 mm 1/8" audio adapter, by an audiophile's mindset and nomenclature of familiarity, whereas Satechi is capitalizing (maybe) on the BitCoin founder's namesake of Satoshi (<_< .../'* or something like that..), yet they produce a well-manufactured, high-end materials [casing, at minimum, yet I checked them out, and they produce somewhat bitsy-better products, of the features-offerings, typically], but in this case, the hard-lining for the pigeon-bwipp best of on: bluetooth audio muxing analog | digital signal-splitter adapter | hub thing goes to the AGVEE - even in this slight visual competition, you can imagine that the dirty skeletons in the closet about these things and their internal features was a hefty dig in to figuring out where my money ought to go. Yet, for the iPad Pro, and for my Google Pixel 4a 5G, 18 watts will do it, for powering the device, or for branching out the digital signal chain, for feeding in power, or for powering other devices in the digital signal path, at a high throughput rate of signal and data delivery, alongside providing up-to many streams, potentially, as well, of analog audio, through the 1/8" 3.5 mm TRRS jack | port.
So I have the Google Pixel 4a 5G as somewhat that I've got an issue of un-attaching myself (so much) to this notion of that I ought to run my speakership audio signal chain, and device usage through my iPad Pro (my Apple devices, inferentially), as I would have done, similarly, in previous legacy hardware configurations, which had done me well enough, yet, for the sake of lesser digital photography capabilities, (I figure), the device's failed me, for lesser reach in to documenting criminal behaviors descending upon me, for mobile device « Bwamm » - I'm the stalking victim, but "you're not supposed to," being the spirit, here.
So, the Pixel 4a 5G has big shoes to fill, and Android has historically had a challenge with producing real-time audio monitoring (which is the whole point of this article), whether or not it was wired, or bluetooth; yet in iOS and iPadOS, it's a newly uncovered dirty dive, in to deprecations of latency: whereas previously, it would, perhaps be thought that technology advances and improves, over as many generations as had come and gone, for the sake of the 3.5 mm 1/8" audio jack and adapter, that deprecations would not follow along the way; yet perhaps this was simply an ugly-ugly look about our tech, within the scope of audio muxing and in sound delivery: with device adapters changing, disappearing etc., as they had done, (controversially, with Apple devices, as the folklore had come, and come to pass), it takes the diversity of the big tech and big name e-commerce platforms like Amazon and Walmart, amongst others, to provide a grounds for competition and inclusion in to the retail internet e-commerce establishment, at scale, to provide enthusiasts with their hardware means to establish suitable aesthetics and fulfillment of the audio-form, as it is, in this case, being delivered appropriately. With audio, it's particularly shit-mode, if it sounds like shit. With visual, or informational, data delivery, of the viewer's speed and care in to an attention-span focus upon delivered assets of visual or informatics nature, all sorts of sleights of hand could assuage the tired viewer, who has to pull themselves away from their own digital binge on their personal devices and IoTs, whatever their "thing" and interest base might constitute.
So, once again: big shoes to fill, in terms of streaming and producing real-time audio content, for the interlocutors, persecutors, litigants, that it were, for the sake of semantic niceties, and so it fits - the persona backdrop and grounding basis of some need to perform - the cornered localized celebratanté | star|(-lett) of some ephemeral and transient (hopefully) unfortunate stake in life, for being deprived of their | my « private » time, and there's all sorts of ways to work « that » angle, yet I'm (over the long-run) aiming to be a family-friendly establishment, however ephemeral, in proximity-scaled appearances - I only mostly appear to be a pigeon-feeding bum, and I don't speak loudly, out in public, or amongst passers-by (I find it rude, when psychotic people speak out loud about their personal strife's, when in public; sometimes it's [literally] hinging upon being an « actualized » threat, to the targeted and profiled victim, out in the public | civic common space).
The big star-of-the-show, as it were, is
the potential for Bluetooth Audio Profiles, of which there is a legacy; there's standards of delivery and provisioning of data-stream priority, as in this case, with audio being the focus, in this article, and for my readership's interests in developing into, purchasing an audioKit setup such as my own, with informed circumstances, going in to the big audioKit dive thing, and with the potential for things to be moved aside, left wireless, or, in this case, with the SabineTek SmartMike+ platform, the lavalier microphones, miniature, though they are, in the bigger scope of things (they're about a pinky finger's size), they're large enough to not suffer from the « pitfalls of miniaturization », (poorer BLE signal radar, or transmission | broadcast); here, this being the bluetooth broadcast RX | TX signal dB (decibels), which is a common complaint about even Apple-branded bluetooth earbuds | mic'ing devices, such as the AirPods Pro, pictured here,
next to the SmartMike+; in this case, I have the SabineTek add-on unidirectional microphone plugged in to the top of the SmartMike+. The SmartMike+ takes micro-USB for charging, and SabineTek (the manufacturer) produces a larger device, with a complementary native iOS | Android app that « specifically provisions » bluetooth real-time audio monitoring to the native app, itself, - which was somewhat a downer, yet the app delivers what the marketing promises: real-time bluetooth audio monitoring, and to unlock the feature of allowing the device to be used with other iOS, iPadOS, and Android apps, a second SmartMike+ device has to be purchased, and plugged in to an audio 3.5 mm 1/8" inch jack, via a TRRS cable (I purchased two, from Amazon, for fairly cheap). My Beastmode noise-cancelling earbuds (3.5 mm adapter-wired), as you can see, are arriving shortly, as well as my second SmartMike+; so I'll simply have to update folks as to whether or not the SabineTek SmartMike+ dual-mic receiver and transmitter (two devices) configuration really works out, as a detected microphone format, in audio signal chain big boy standard apps on iPadOS, such as AudioBus and AUM, which fairly much singularly do audio signal chaining, in the software realm, on Apple devices. On Android, there's an open-field, for development, or for discovery, of an app | hardware combination of microphone selection and configuration that provides for real-time audio monitoring, whether bluetooth-enabled, or wired through the audio port, which is why my purchases are open-ended, and investigatory, at this point in time. I'm trying to find and figure out how well the SabineTek platform of the SmartMike+ dual-mics configuration works out, as the devices are purported to operate as TX | RX mode, while also each providing earbuds | headset listening and monitoring features, as well as microphone input, with the TRRS jack | port for the input, on the SmartMike+. It's a touchy subject, of feature offerings, all to it's own, in the product competition of bluetooth | lavalier mics, and microphone | monitoring | listening product offerings, of bluetooth audio devices.
In my case,
I'm sort of aiming to have the headphone tube amplifier (Biggermouth A9-branded, with 6J9-J military specification multi-purpose audio and Radio Frequency band vacuum tubes (6J9 tubes), with 3.5 mm 1/8" audio adapter analog input and output, (one each), as my options for I/O, (ostensibly), yet I'm also interested in using the SabineTek SmartMike+ devices as transmitters and receivers off of the 3.5 mm 1/8" inch audio jacks on the Biggermouth A9 headphone tube amp, while implementing various other audio signal multiplexing to and from my devices, to benefit the signal from the improved gain character and increased harmonics from the extra headroom in frequency response of the signal chain. I've tried it out on what cheap headphones I have, at the moment, and the little tube amp really livens things up in the French Cabinet Music Box Pipe Organ tracks that I purchased from Tovusound and Apple Music pop and chill trap | futurebass downloaded tracks I have in my library.
As far as expanding the device kit further, and beyond what I've already established, I'm looking in to (next time I get some funding put together) buying in to bone conducting speaker technology; which essentially provisions mechanized vibrating magnetic devices, as that they suction-cup attach to surfaces to establish the resonant space of the surface as the speaker box. It'll be a fun adventure in to exploring more things, as audio playgrounds. So far, Walmart has the best prices on the HumBird bone conduction speaker devices, which had apparently just recently been released, according to Amazon.
Hmm... Maybe since I first wrote this and now, hours later, upon reconsidering, the Walmart seller might have changed the price on these things, but perhaps that's understandable. They're available on Amazon, as well, as HumBird bone conducting speakers.
As for the Biggermouth A9 tube amp, which is the brand new star in my audio signal chaining, there's an uncovered breakout deal on aliexpress.com for quite a bargain, for the c
Update: I received the second SmartMike+.
